[bik0]

Tough quiz. I got 3 out of 12....

1. I'm a professional systems administrator and I can't even get the thing to load

On Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, or IE.

3. better call the geek squad

5. When I see a Geek Squad vehicle, I feel like ramming it with my big black SUV

:argh:

13. You may have already tried this but

click on "Take the quiz" and not on "Test Your Global IQ" The second is a link but only goes to the same page. Take the quiz doesn't look like a link but it is. If you already tried this, my apologies. BTW I'm using Seamonkey as a browser.

14. 4 of 12

My face is red- here I thought I knew so much- and the truth is not so much.

[smirkymonkey]

33. Same here - I'm so embarrassed.

:dunce:

On the other hand, most of the questions were quite tricky.

41. They're meaningless bullshit questions about public opinion that is inherently fluid

All it would take is for the US to bomb some Middle Eastern of African shit-hole for all of those poll results to change.

Kenya probably didn't give a flying fuck about the USA until we elected a Kenyan President.

15. bah hahahah.... lol llol. that is it. so computer illliterate. thanks. nt

[slackmaster]

16. D'OH! Thanks. I got 1 out of 12 right.

I'm not very concerned about my low score. The quiz does not address any substantive issues or concrete facts, just popularity poll results.

:hi:

[LeftinOH]

2. 4/12

[SteppingRazor]

4. I got 6/12, but all of those were just educated guesses. n/t

[Regret My New Name]

[Oceansaway]

7. I got 6 out of 12

[Demstud]

8. 6/12

Got 4 out of the last 5 though :-) But I feel kind of bad about a few of my assumptions :-P

[Romulox]

9. I abandoned the quiz after question 2. I don't care what people "like best about the US".

I don't live my life to please strangers, so the question isn't material to anything in my life. :hi:

[pampango]

10. 6 out of 12, but a couple were lucky guesses.

I need to read their research and data on #8 (In which of these countries do Muslims show the least support for suicide bombing in defense of Islam?-Pakistan) & #11 (What democratic principle is generally valued more in former communist countries?-fair judiciary).

Interesting quiz and difficult. :)

39. What browser/OS are you using?

I can't get it to load at all and in this case I haven't been able to find out what the site wants to do that my sys won't allow.

[NeedleCast]

12. 6 of 12

Good quiz! Very interesting data points behind the answers. Thanks for posting it!

The answer on how many people in Frace have a favorable opinion of the US was the most surprising answer to me.

[seabeyond]

17. 5 and it is of course, all guesses. nt

[Xicano]

[vanbean]

[supernova]

25. 4 out of 12

:blush:

I don't know that much about other countries' populations' perceptions of us, rather than what stance a particular gov't thinks or things that happened in the news.

[TacoD]

26. Thanks for the link

I got 4/12. #5 was least surprising, #10 was most surprising.

[TacoD]

28. btw I have seen progressives complain that Pew is a conservative think tank

But their research looks pretty sound to me (in my brief review)

[City Lights]
