I read the thread Please tell me people aren't this ignorant and it reminded me of an episode of the Newlywed Game in the late 70s. The question was, "What direction does the sun come up in your neighborhood, north, south, east, or west." Several of them weren't very sure of themselves but they teased the woman that got it wrong for awhile. I watched this episode myself.

Well, it generally "rises" in the east, but where I live, it can appear to "rise" slightly in the southeast.

Yes but it was multiple choice.

I admit that I haven't watched The Newlywed Game in years, but I don't recall that they had multiple choice questions--and the questions were pretty much about the other person or the relationship; this doesn't sound like a Newlywed Game question at all.
