I got 17 right...

A little brain teaser... kind of interesting how many things we overlook.

There are 25 questions about things we see every day or have known about all
our lives. How many can you get right? These little simple questions are
harder than you think. It just shows how little we pay attention to the
commonplace things of life.

**The average person only gets 7 right. These questions are based on U.S.
info, so use all lobes of your brain. This can be more difficult than it
looks.

RULES: Put your thinking caps on. No cheating, no looking around, no getting
out of your chair, and no using anything on or in your desk or computer!

Can you beat 20? (The average is 7) Write down your answers and check
answers (on the bottom) AFTER completing all the questions. REMEMBER-NO
CHEATING.

It doesn't matter if you cheat, actually, because if you have to cheat, then
you don't know the answer, thus, you've already missed the question. BE
HONEST. That means no looking at your phone or anything on your desk.

Then, before you pass this on to your friends, change the number on the
subject line to show how many you got correct. Forward to your friends and
also back to the one who sent it to you.

LET'S JUST SEE HOW OBSERVANT YOU REALLY ARE.
