Not if you don't have any idea what it is about. It still does not make sense to me.. (lots of things rhyme mace, pace, lace and so on..)

I got that one just by guessing a three-syllable rhyme ending on '-ace' that I have kind of heard before. Felt like shooting in the dark and hitting bullseye.

I had heard of the "Twelve Days of Christmas" before but I have never come across "Monday's Child".

Those questions seem almost impossible for a non-native speaker.

I guess I can say that I learned something new today. Thanks ;)

You know Supernatural has taken over your life when your first thoughts upon seeing the one about Tuesday were 1) Heat of the Moment/Rise and shine Sammy and 2) Pig in a Poke.

Your advil clue doesn't translate well. Might I suggest that it is very "US-centric"? And before you say it, yes I know that this trade name is used in a dozen or so other countries as well as the US but that hardly makes it universal, does it? In my opinion, best to keep trade names out of jetpunk quizzes altogether lest one is accused of advertising.

We have advil but never heard of tylenol. But seeing the name that preceded it, i guessed they were looking for the name of the substance

So I gather you believe that giant pandas are native to every country on Earth including the Vatican?

Giant pandas are called by the same name in many different countries (I won't say 'all Anglophone countries', because you're bound to come back with a tale of how you met a man in Belize who called them 'Pontefract bears'), but proprietary names for ibuprofen vary. No need for you to get snotty about it.

That is a pretty local rhyme. Not known in non english speaking countries. Same for the christmas song, I know of it, but that is it (because it comes around in quizzes here quite reguarly :/) but you are mistaken if you think it is internationally known. Unlike several other christmas songs. (Jingle bells, rudolph the rednosed raindeer, dreaming of a white christmas and several others).

I don't think the rhymes of 1 specific country has a place in an international quiz. No way of knowing for the rest of the world. (Maybe you were under the impression they wére globally known? Because i haven't for instance seen you post Polish rhymes)

I can understand people complaining of a US bias on ocassion, but even though it's a bit archaic now, I've come across that particular rhyme in every english-speaking country in the world, and since this is an english-language quiz, it seems strange to complain of a bias in this case.

When I take a spanish-language quiz, I expect to encounter some things that are specific to Spanish or Latin American culture. Likewise, when I take a german-language quiz, I expect to encounter questions relating to the culture and cultural history of german-speaking countries.

Furthermore the poem "Monday Child" originated in England confirming that while the clue may be "English-speaking centric, it is not "US centric."

Because that wouldn't provide the chance to indulge in anti-American sentiment, which is the true purpose of such comments.
