I missed the US Flag of Complacency! How the hell did that happen? (Really, if I could stitch, there would be pork rinds, teevee, huge carbon emission fart clouds, etc.)
Maybe I'll start a petition to turn C-Span into a reality show, so more people will understand government here.
I'll bet there's someplace on the Wide World of Webs that you can submit a clever photoshop to a machine & have a custom stitched flag airdropped in the next day. maybe 3-D printing's the answer…
CSPAN's "Washington Journal" call-in show is a Reality show. An endless, infuriatingly stupifying reality show. I watch or listen until I start yelling.
While I agree that France should be pronounced as 'Yurp', there would be no halupki recipes east of Germany. Although pork with wine and tarragon does sound good, just fuck you, France. I got yer roux right here.
At least that's above .500. That's good enough for the playoffs in everything but baseball.
19 out of 30 for me. Got every outline right, but flags? Forget it. Not much better on capitols.
20. I'm mildly embarrassed, but I don't actually think "flags" is an important part of "geography".
I'm annoyed that I confused Hungary and Czech Republic, though.
Agreed. From the OED:
"the study of the physical features of the earth and its atmosphere, and of human activity as it affects and is affected by these, including the distribution of populations and resources, land use, and industries.”
Don’t say nothin’ bout no flags.
I got completely fucked by two questions where I was so far off it made me cry.
At least I now know roughly where Ho Chi Minh City is.. .well, within 1000 miles or so. :/
25 out of 30. Yay!
You are wombling wonderful!
Flag #6 was clearly Obamastan.
I missed the flags of Slobbovia, Vulgaria and Upper Revoltia but I did manage to acquire a smug sense of self-satisfaction.

I'm embarrassed at how poorly I did on that.
I only done got 15.
I recall having a conversation with one of my employees who insisted that France was east of Germany.
He also insisted on pronouncing it Yurp.

That's why I posted it. shit, I got 16. [sadface emoticon]

18. If not for the Americas, I'd have scored in the negatives.
Sydney is the largest metro area in Australia but not the largest city, RIP quiz
Still got 25 though, damn flags.
Get! You didn't google anything? That's awesome!
I spend too much time on Sporcle sometimes.
26/30. As someone who made it to the state level of the geography bee, I am deeply ashamed.
I blame the collapse of communism. Ein Czechoslovakia, ein Yugoslavia, ein USSR!
