Here's My Score: You correctly answered 10 out of the 11 possible questions, which means you did better on the quiz than 87% of the general public.

I was wrong on the fourth question.

"Was the government bailout of banks and financial institutions, also known as TARP, passed and signed into law under:"

I tought it was signed by Obama

I got 10 out of 11 - scored higher than 87%.

I missed the Supreme Court Chief Justice question.
Undertoad • Oct 14, 2010 8:47 am
100%
Clodfobble • Oct 14, 2010 8:54 am
How funny that every question begins with "Do you happen to know" or "Can you tell me..." Gotta boost the ol' self-esteem in case we don't know the answer.

I got the PM of Britain wrong. Oh well.
xoxoxoBruce • Oct 14, 2010 9:06 am
That's the one I missed, too.
glatt • Oct 14, 2010 9:47 am
me too.
Happy Monkey • Oct 14, 2010 12:00 pm
10/11
Big Sarge • Oct 14, 2010 2:11 pm
I got 10 out of 11. I forgot who the prime minister is. But who cares? It's only Great Britain not like someplace important
xoxoxoBruce • Oct 14, 2010 2:13 pm
Can't be important, or so many of us wouldn't have missed it. ;)

My quiz results reflect my self imposed media blackout. The sad dest part about getting a 6 was that I am still ahead on the bell curve.

How Millennial are you? http://pewresearch.org/millennials/quiz/index.php

(I totally kicked ass on the science quiz)
Undertoad • Oct 14, 2010 3:07 pm
Millennial = 82 WOW

They think I'm a boomer and they think my average score should be 11.

But I've always been more of an Xer and my average score should be 33.

Feh. I still hate Green Day.

Ha! It said I was an old fart. 20.

I read the paper, and don't have body modifications. I'm hopelessly square.

Pico and ME • Oct 14, 2010 4:25 pm
YooHoo! I got them all on the political quiz!!! I didn't do so hot on the religion quiz (only 12).
Pico and ME • Oct 14, 2010 4:32 pm
For the Millennial, I got a 41.

I don't text. Well, hardly. And I don't have a tattoo or an extra piercing.
Big Sarge • Oct 14, 2010 5:15 pm
Millenial=27 Not too bad for a baby boomer
HungLikeJesus • Oct 14, 2010 8:27 pm
(This is just an observation, I'm not making a judgment.) The only question where females outscored males was:

Do you happen to know what Twitter is?
Jacquelita • Oct 14, 2010 8:31 pm
Millennial = 81


The 1st quiz 10 outta 11 (got the general wrong!)
Griff • Oct 14, 2010 9:12 pm
100% of the first and millennial = 9 wow
footfootfoot • Oct 14, 2010 9:28 pm
I was 33 millennial.
I thought I was hipper than that. I didn't realize you had to be all inked up and punctured to be one of the cool kids. Plus, I don't tweet.
Griff • Oct 14, 2010 9:44 pm
I don't harbor many illusions of hipitude... but I guess they were too numerous. Still avoiding facebook and the colleges lil'Pete is communicating with all assume a facebook presence. The world we're leaving to the Millennials is kinda strange to me.
classicman • Oct 14, 2010 9:52 pm
Missed the PM... WTH?
classicman • Oct 14, 2010 9:55 pm
got a 62 on the millennial.

Not sure if thats a good or bad thing.
Big Sarge • Oct 15, 2010 9:08 am
Geez - I made a good poke at the Brits and they don't have any come back?
xoxoxoBruce • Oct 15, 2010 10:01 am
I guess when you poke 'em, they just roll over and pass out. ;)

Especially since "yes" and "no" were not choices, but are the only correct answers to the questions.
Spexxvet • Oct 15, 2010 12:55 pm
Your Millennial score is 47!

I am soooo fucking immature.
Big Sarge • Oct 15, 2010 5:07 pm
Bruce- there's a couple of sexy Brits on here I'd like to poke
morethanpretty • Oct 15, 2010 7:07 pm
10/11

Got this one wrong:
Do you happen to know who is the Chief Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court?

I did choose John tho!
morethanpretty • Oct 15, 2010 7:10 pm
On the Millennial quiz: 63


wow.


This makes it concrete now. I must go get a tat and belly button piercing.
xoxoxoBruce • Oct 15, 2010 7:31 pm
Millennial = [SIZE="4"]6[/SIZE]

Exactly the age specific average.
footfootfoot • Oct 15, 2010 7:57 pm
Just for grins I redid the quiz but gave the exact opposite answer to every question. I got a 98 this time.

Nah. Won't make you younger (like you need to be any younger), will just make you more marked up. Gotta Sharpie?

That's ironic, since this is called the cellar.
