But it’s not a polo neck, which is a collar on a tee-shirt.

In the UK we sometimes use Rollneck for Turtleneck

Lots of amusing memories on here. Every guy I knew fancied himself a genius Texas Hold 'Em player and I remember hating those Livestrong bracelets from the moment I learned about them. They were the forerunner of social media virtue signaling.

They’re not wearing them any more. Did I miss them curing cancer or what?

The 'ballot' question doesn't make sense.

Unless your country uses punch-cards when voting (and has had many scandals about them) then it probably won't. I mean, voting issues happen so frequently in Florida that the CHAD one didn't stand out.

No... it wasn't. Guitar Hero encore is, was, and will be the best fake music game ever.

Martha Stewart wasn't convicted of the securities fraud charges, she was convicted of the lying to federal investigators and obstruction charges.

You could change "convicted" to "indicted", though, this would make the clue factually accurate without having to rework it too much.

Good quiz, I only missed the friendster one.

mock neck should be accepted for mock turtleneck, as that is the name on many clothing websites (LL Bean, Men's Wearhouse, etc.)

Funny how I got 30% on 90s and 00s and 55% on 80s, born in 2004 so I wasn't very culturally literate naturally

I would like to be surprised that a bunch of nerds taking quizzes for fun didn't know about Friendster.
