    Nine...

    I dispute #4. The proper term is borborygmus.

    @bachophile will corroborate.

    I also dispute #11.

    agrafe

    variants: or agraffe

    a hook-and-loop fastening
    especially : an ornamental clasp used on armor or costumes

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

        If we're being picky, #20 is called a Brannock device.

        I was only joking

                I had heard them all, probably from some similar meme.

                But unaided awareness? Like you ask me the question cold and I need to answer?

                Three

                Only non-witches get due process.

                    Similar, though I don't think I had heard all, just most. The four I could have answered in a pinch? Aglets, Tines, Box Tent, and Minimus...

                      I only knew tines. I suspect that one is an order of magnitude more well known than the rest.

                      Education is extremely important.

                        I knew zero. Another word for #16 is "lazy" 555
