sounds like you have some really crappy pizza in Australia. :P Though I prefer Domino's to Pizza Hut, it's worse than just about anything else. Aside from the stuff they sell in Naples and call pizza.
Guys, don't you get it? Democracy is at stake here--we must defeat idiocracy. If people can't learn to type made-up corporation names, they'll never realize when the corporate AI becomes smart enough to invade our democratic institutions. Before long, you'll be voting for Sharpie Tostitos-Butterworth, not realizing that your very democracy is being taken away because of your inability to recognize the spelling of corporations and brands! Wake up sheeple, and listen to ajc2270 and his words of wisdom!
Mr. Clean is not a very good one, because the brand changes it's name in every state. It's called Flash in the UK, Mr. Proper (or some variation of it) in Europe, Maestro Limpio in South America,...
There are other ones that are a little unfair, because the only serve one or two countries (such as Arby's). I think in those kind of tests an effort should be made to include only globally recognized brands.
+1 on the Mr Proper. Kept trying that as I grew up in Ireland when they launched the product in Ireland and UK by that name, which they also use in Scandinavia. Would be fair to accept at least the main european (English) name used for that brand
Arby's currently operates in Canada, Egypt, Kuwait, Qatar, South Korea, Turkey, the UAE, and the USA. They previously had locations in Australia, Mexico, Ecuador, Brazil, Chile, Japan, the Netherlands, Poland, the United Kingdom, Jordan, Indonesia, the Philippines, Malaysia, Portugal, Bahrain, and Taiwan. The neighborhood where you live is not the entire rest of the world.
I'm not sure why they don't list all of their international locations on their website. If I had to guess it would be because outside of the USA and Canada these Arby's franchises are not directly operated by the company but rather spun off to some other company that opens up American franchises in whatever territory they operate in. For example, I know there is a Kuwaiti-owned and operated company called Americana which franchises Hardee's, Papa John's, Burger Kings and all sorts of other American restaurants all over the Gulf. Essentially the parent company sells Americana rights to use their name, menu, logos, etc, and Americana sends that company a licensing or franchise fee. This is extremely profitable for both parties, and made me feel better about patronizing the Papa John's in Bahrain as I knew my money was not finding its way directly in to John Schnatter's pocket. That guy is a jerk.
Go to Google Maps and type in "Arby's in Istanbul"- they're all over the place. In Dubai it looks like they've combined with Wendy's, and in Egypt I think they may only have one location. Still, they're there, in addition to being all over North America which is part of the world, too.
Dunkin Donuts should be Dunkin/Dunkin' now, although that specific logo is DD so perhaps it is fine to leave it the same. Maybe allow Dunkin as an answer?
Great quiz, there is nothing wrong with it or its content. People go on and on about hating brands and all this nonsense when in reality they are a fact of life and are very helpful and give jobs to billions across the planet. I mean honestly, who here doesn't work for a brand or company? They have their flaws, as everything does, but seriously, if you don't want to use a brand, don't use it, and if you have a complaint submit it to the brand and stop whining about it to other people on social interfaces like JetPunk.
Nike's overrated.
No one uses Yahoo.
Android is terrible.
Dunkin Donuts is for fat Americans.
Dominos is awful. Fast food pizza, I shouldn't have to say more.
Rolex is for rich old men.
Skype simply doesn't work. (stupid policies > stupid people)
Tostitos: we need to build a wall and make 'em pay for it. (I don't endorse that BS, just making a point)
All logos should be removed if we're going off people's opinions of what doesn't meet their "standards".
America is full of fat people. Can we remove the American fast food/general American company logos then?
(except the Android one MY OPINION)
You are probably one of those stupid people who think australians ride to school on kangaroos.
also why should skype be removed? it's still an app, doesn't matter if its not popular, no one else seems to care.
And your comment would have been more accurate as "I love MY culture".
