@whitequark This is a question you need to be able to answer for immigration purposes, I take it?

That's an asinine question

@ra6bit yes and yes
@whitequark My condolences.
@a1ba @ra6bit @whitequark I feel like I'd fail my own country's culture quiz if I had to take one. 😶
@a1ba @ra6bit @whitequark addendum: it's not like I'm uncultured but I feel like my own culture of my country seems to be quite different from what one would be expected to *know* for such exams.
@Ronflaix @a1ba @whitequark That's because the point of these is not to make sure people know what would be relevant. It's more squarely simply to reduce the chances they will succeed.
@ra6bit 💯
And it's why I will never apply for a Brit passport. It's all just humiliation with a disproportionately high price tag attached.
