The fan question is objective, most fans have a switch to rotate direction to cause 2 different kinds of convection.

[LA_MERC_LaTech]

20, I missed #:7,8,9,12, 20, 23, 24

Drax, not true. Most CEILING fans have that option, but it didn't specify a CEILING fan...it just said "fan"

[LA_MERC_MadMAX]

10. Which way does water go down the drain, counter or clockwise?

That depends on what hemisphere you are in :)

[LA_MERC_Onji]

']That depends on what hemisphere you are in :)
very true

[LA_MERC_Drifter]

I got 20 right.

questions I got wrong: 4,9,15,16,20,24,26.

[LA_MERC_Andyconda]

Well, I don't know how many since the answers are not posted, but I can say I'm pretty sure I missed the 2 canadian currency questions not becuase I'm not observant, simply because I've never seen either. I guessed Moose for both of them though. Also, they are correct with the flushing toilet rotation question, it does matter what hemisphere your in but for ours the rotation is clockwise. And they are correct about fans too. Ceiling fans come with a rotation switch but the blades are set up to blow air down when rotating clockwise. If you reverse rotation you will draft air up so the answer is really clockwise since only in a few conditions is it good to reverse rotation on your ceiling fan All standard fans rotate clockwise.

[LA_MERC_Sabre]

shut up andy

[LA_MERC_Dirge]

Not to mention, it alls depends on how the blades are oriented. If they were designed to blow by rotating counter, then hey, guess which way they will blow? Oh yeah, another things, items such as toilets and cyclonic liquid seperators from the Northern hemisphere will not work in the southern hemisphere. Instead of flushing, the toilet would spit and gargle and float your stool right on up to the lid (of course until sufficent head causes the water level to go down on its own.) And why wouldn't the Canadian coins have ham on the back of them? It seems like their greatest invention?

[LA_MERC_Diesel]

(of course until sufficent head causes the water level to go down on its own.) wtf are you talking about..lmao

[JUNKY]

I would argue the lugnut answer as well. Most import cars have 4 lug wheels -- there are an arseload of them on the road since the 60's.

for the pack of matches question -- that's another one of those great marketing schemes -- 20 matches in a pack, but 21 cigarettes in a standard pack right?. Kinda like getting a pack of 10 hotdogs, but hotdog buns standardly come in a 8 pack.

[LA_MERC_Sabre]

wtf are you talking about..lmao

head, is the difference in elevation of water....not what you were :whisperd: thinking...

the fan question was bogus (i guessed right on that one), and the lugnut one was too. I didn't know what to put because my old car had 4 as well. I went with the american vehicle on that one.

And Canada has more than canadian bacon as their claim to fame, we got the Canadian Arm as well.

[LA_MERC_Dirge]

Candian Arm? Is that like your famous Navy?

[Sergei Criffnoobsky]

GRRRRRR don't speak badly bout the canadian armed forces.

[LA_MERC_Sabre]

Candian Arm? Is that like your famous Navy?


I'll let you do some research.....lol, it's a real thing...I'll give you a hint, it's out of this world. (or Canada Arm)

[LA_MERC_Dirge]

Don't you mean "Don't speak badly ABOOT the Candian Armed Forces."?

[LA_MERC_Dirge]

An arm for the International Space Station? That's it? Couldn't they have just gotten some from your local GM plant's robot division? lol jk

How'd they get it up there? With the Canada rotator cuff?

[LA_MERC_Sabre]

lmao, no they use a hockey stick.

[CajunTech]

19....
Missed 3,4,7,13,15,20,21,24

Those biased Canadian money questions.. I've never seen Canadian money :)

Course now I'll be known as the guy that not only has problems cooking hot dogs, but doesn;t know how many buns come in a pack either.....

[LA_MERC_Cowboy_From_Hell]

I thought it was a beaver....I rememerb a Gallagher bit where he talks about Canadian money...

"Look at Canadian money. On one side you have the Queen and think, Ooo..that's nice. Then you turn it over and there's a beaver. WTH GLORY IS THERE IN FIRST PLACE IF SECOND PLACE WENT TO A BEAVER!!"

[aCiD]

Erm i have to disagree with the 50 States true theres 50 Sperate states in the USA, but 1 is not even close to the USA. Alaska is, its connected to North Amercia, but Hawii isnt. So really, if you were to get technical, there would be 49 States in the USA one being in the Pacific Ocean which makes 50. :bigok
