This was a fun quiz, but IMHO the questions weren't very general. Eight clues for TV, movie, and radio and five for geography is too many for a general knowledge quiz. But that's just me.

general just means it not in any specific category and the questions can be related to anything

unless you've been to chicago and shopped there, how would you ever hear of this? It's not like Rodeo drive that is on TV all the time.

Well, it may be more of a midwestern thing, but I live in a neighboring state and I've heard of it.

I'm also from a neighboring state, I've been to Chicago twice, and I've never heard of the Magnificent Mile. And I've played Watchdogs.

Let me guess. You also put ketchup on your hot dog and think Harry Caray is something that Japanese people do with a sword. Kidding, kidding...

To be fair, I was in my late teens, so upscale shopping was not high on my to-do list.

Excellent US General Knowledge quiz! US-centric, as it should be. This morally superior, know-it-all Canadian scored a miserable 50 percent.

I thought of 'battle' for the quote one, but the line for the missing word seemed too long so I didn't guess it. I'd already tried many other options by that point so I just moved on. 4/20, yikes.
