Quiz Time
This quiz determines where you would fall in the Dewey Decimal System... if you were a book. I had trouble answering some of the questions because the choices(multiple choice) weren't always right, but I'm not a book either. :D
I'm in the 500's if you need me.
You got 500's - Natural Sciences! Every morning you check the weather forecast to make sure you're dressed appropriately. You love animals and truly care about their well-being. Space is a mysterious thing to you and you love reading articles about new planets and advances in space. You love plants and enjoy having a few around your house. You are truly a fan of nature and everything it entails!
Move up, Bruce. There's space needed for another volume on that shelf.:)
BTW, you'll recognise me. I'm the Morocco bound one with the gold leaf edges.
Always room for one more...
I also got 500s - Natural Sciences. I'll be the tome that smells of cheap cigars and Wild Turkey.
Just so we know it's not all 500s, Momdigr got 300s, Social Sciences.
800s - Literature
Can't be - I stopped reading when the Internet came online.
I got the 600's Technology.
You got the 900's - Geography, History, and Biographies
that was fun
You got the 300's - Social Sciences!
I'm with UT in Literature. You'll recognise me as the slightly foxed but still slightly foxy edition which smells of Clarins and hope.
You got the 900's - Geography, History, and Biographies! So, you're a social studies buff, huh? When you were a kid, you probably loved gazing at maps and you still do! You enjoy learning about historical events - anything related to wars, catastrophes, civilizations, presidents, you name it, history is your thing!
Same as glatt, per usual.
You got the 000's - Generalities! You have a passion for general knowledge and information. You love locating information in books, reference works, and on the computer. You also enjoy keeping up to date with current events. Let's face it, information is your life! And you love it!
That's me

When it came to music, I picked the one I was familiar with, but my actual choice in music wasn't there.
This is more to my tastes.

Beautiful music preformed by 'eye candy', life is good.
There's a thread in the Entertainment forum in which you can share
other good music on youtubeYou got the 300's - Social Sciences! You are interested in politics and make a point to vote every single Election Day! Having a steady and well paying job is extremely important to you and you work hard to save money for future endeavors. Your family and your traditions helped shape who you are and you look forward to family gatherings for special occasions!
BigV will be found in the 500's - Natural Sciences! Every morning you check the weather forecast to make sure you're dressed appropriately (easy, prepare for rain) You love animals and truly care about their well-being (and taste). Space is a mysterious thing to you (because you have so little of it in your house) and you love reading articles about new planets and advances in space. You love (to eat) plants and enjoy having a few around your house. You are truly a fan of nature and everything it entails! (mmmm, entrails. wait, what?)

That was fun. :)

Unfortunately the label "Good Music" is somewhat in error, possibly 'good noise' for the tone deaf. The music I would post would not 'fit' on that thread.
The sad part is that there are some talented people who "could" play music, but they have chosen to produce noise instead.
You got the 900's - Geography, History, and Biographies! So, you're a social studies buff, huh? When you were a kid, you probably loved gazing at maps and you still do! You enjoy learning about historical events - anything related to wars, catastrophes, civilizations, presidents, you name it, history is your thing! Just me, then?

Or, don't;
post anyway.How Catholic Are You Actually?
You checked off 12 out of 100 on this list!
Casual Catholic! You were probably raised Catholic and grew up going to church, though you may not completely identify with the religion in your every day life. You probably still carry the lessons you learned as a kid close to your heart, even if you only go to church on the major holidays.
I'm
Catholic??? Or, don't; post anyway.
It's kind of amazing how we've been doing this Cellar thing for so many years, you can remember something somebody said almost a decade ago and find it to use.
I sometimes wish we had this ability in real life, but it would probably be used against me more than I would use it.
Yes, it is. By the same token, I find many things said by my family of choice here in the cellar amazingly memorable. You, all, are very important to me. I try to pay attention.
How Catholic Are You Actually?
I'm Catholic???
12% and they'll include you. Seems like they need to pad the numbers.
Inexplicably, I got the 900s.
I'm guessing it was Amelia Earhart that skewed the results. I do love maps, but there were no map questions.

I was confused, I thought it said 'cat-a-holic'.
ONly got a 16 on that as well, grav. I balked (and laughed out loud in class) at "You were made from a rib."
I started to take it, but it's bogus. Some of those items could be chosen if self-identify as Hindu, let alone Protestant, and some are downright Jewish, dagnabbit!

I got a 20, and I'm Waspy McWasperson.
I got 900s on the Dewey Decimal one.
Only 89 out of 170. Plus, several of the ones I checked off were movies I know I've seen, but I can't remember a dang thing about.
Plus, several of the ones I checked off were movies I know I've seen, but I can't remember a dang thing about.
I'd say at least 35% of the ones I saw on TV, the theater ones I remember at least some of the plot. :haha:
After I got this : You got the 200's - Religion and Mythology! You are spiritual and believe strongly in religion. You believe in charity and enjoy making the world a better place! Mythology intrigues you and you enjoy the stories of the gods!
I was a bit nervous to take the other quizzes! :eyebrow:
151 out of 170
Same! Well we're of the same vintage after all.
I watched some of them only in the last 5-10 years, of those I saw closer to their time of release most were on VHS.
The ones I saw were almost exclusively vhs. I saw the Star Wars series and the various Indiana Jones both in the theatre and on tape which was cool. I also saw Out of Africa in the theatre but should not speak of it.
I didn't see any of the Star Wars movies until college when a boyfriend forced me to... they sucked, just like I said they would.
You checked off 130 out of 170 on this list!
Some of those were way not iconic
148/170 and probably a few more that were more forgettable than iconic.
134 of 170. Plus, I own several of them, some on VHS even. Ah, good times, good times.
139. Yup. I remember those times.
I already forgot my score. It was in the 60s I think, but at least half a dozen I only watched recently in an attempt to become more au fait with references made by my American friends. Or you lot. Ah well.
25 out of 170 and some of those I didn't watch on purpose, and many of the others I wouldn't watch on a bet.
... I would find it hard to limit my favorites on that list to a mere twenty-five films.
wait, GMV wasn't on there, was it?
The
New York Times asks can you read a person's emotions by their eyes.
It's hard for me, only 23 out of 36, of the small, B&W, poor resolution photos, but I found I did better with first impressions than trying to think about them.
Good hunting. :3eye:
Heh... that test was originally developed for people on the spectrum. I've taken it before, and not surprisingly, I did fairly badly on it. But I fervently maintain that I'd get a great score if they made a similar test for mouths.
34 of 36, but I couldn't believe I was getting one after another correct, because I often wasn't sure. So I deliberately answered one wrong, just to see if I could. So it should be 35/36. I'm surprised I did so well, because I often don't get people.
32/36
there were a couple I couldn't read at all and a couple i felt were ambiguously similar, like mistrustful and worried or something like that pair.

I got:
Your results
9 out of a possible 10
Well done! You're almost a pure geek.
9 of 10,
but this isn't fair because I read probably 80% of the books listed and I had only seen one cover. The books I read had different covers than what was shown. So all but one of my answers were just educated guesses based on the subject matter of the cover.
6 out of 10 on pure guesswork, never seen any of those covers before, but like glatt said the subject matter gave a couple away.

I've just figured out who it reminds me of....James Whitmore.

25 of 36, had a few lucky guesses where the emotion I perceived wasn't listed.
8 out of 10, but The Handmaid's Tale is a dystopian novel. I'm not sure how poverty/squalor can be classified as science fiction.

This is American centric I think so apologies to the rest of you. You might find it entertaining, however.
The quiz.
3 most;
Philly, about where I live.
Springfield, MA, where I misspent my youth.
Rochester, NY, no clue.
3 least; New Orleans, Jackson, MS, and Lubbock, TX.
All three were in Texas, and all three were because I say "y'all." :)
Jackson Ms, Columbus Ga, Chattanooga Tn. I have been to all 3 places, but never lived in any of them.
Philly, Patterson, NJ (just up the road), and Yonkers
Patterson, Yonkers, Boston.
Yonkers is about 6 miles as the crow flies from where I grew up. My Aunt lived in NJ, near Patterson and her husband, my uncle, was from Boston area.
A lot of answers were multiple for me with no option to choose more than one.

In a related quiz, it was determined that foot's answers show him to be from around 1825.
Fort Wayne IN, Rockford IL, and Toledo OH. Yep. Fort Wayne and Toledo because I say 'pop' and Rockford because I pronounce cot and caught differently? Who doesn't pronounce those words differently?
My least similars were all around Boston. Hard to see because the map didn't load properly. I took it twice and got a script error...and I noticed there were some different questions the second time around.
This quiz at Slate will be tougher for most people. It's 20 machine patent models, scaled-down models of their invention they want patented. It's multiple choice with 4 options.
I found it tough getting 13 out of 20.
Go for it.I got nine, but as the average is also nine I'm relieved that others got even fewer right. That'll do for me.

What 2 words describe you? The unfailing wisdom of an
internet website knows all.
Just so you know it's 100% accurate :
Unbelievably Sweet
You're the perfect treat -- delightful and sweet. You have the sweetest smile and the most tender love. Your face can brighten any dark day and your jovial nature can fill even passersby with joy. A great many consider themselves lucky to have you in their lives!
Selflessly Caring
You care deeply and selflessly. When you truly care for someone, you make them an important part of you. You stay with them through their sorrows and heal their pains. No one can even say they protect and care as much as you for someone whom you love. Your loved ones never forget you and they always keep you in their hearts!

Whatsthatnow?
The brown posters on the split rail fence.
The fence post one was complicated, but made sense. The pirate ship one was logical if you looked only at the top row, but the bottom row was gibberish.
Agree. The pirate ship was frustrating because the bottom row didn't make sense; you had to only consider the top row and not attempt to duplicate the nonsense bottom row.
Close call, but I suppose it's good to know I might qualify for a snooty NYC kindergarten.

You Scored: 5 / 5
Kindergarten, here I come.
Seriously? There's no way my kids could have passed that exam at five years old. Nothing close to the reading comprehension required for the last question, and the matchy-matchy ones, ... maybe they could have seen a pattern. But the biggest trouble would have been that my kids would have had precious little test taking experience by that age. They might have scribbled all over the test, eaten the crayons, and ran in circles until they were so dizzy they fell down. Y'know, like normal kindergarteners.

Today is Constitution Day in the U.S.. (<---What's the proper way to end that sentence?)
--snip
Like this:
Today is Constitution Day in the U.S.
The period that ends the abbreviation also ends the sentence. If the sentence ends in a different punctuation mark, like a question mark or an exclamation mark, use both. If the sentence is awkward or unclear, rewrite it to move the abbreviation away from the end of the sentence or avoid the abbreviation altogether

Damn, that was hard. Lots of educated guessing. And even more uneducated guessing.
Like this:
Thank you, sir.
I got 4. Hahhahahaaa! Of course the alcohol one. That was easy, because overturning prohibition holds a special place in my heart...from a past life. The other one I got was the one about public education not being mentioned in the constitution. I picked that because in both my past jobs we were mandated to do something to recognize Constitution Day. Because public education was considered a state level issue by our founding fathers, it only stands to reason that institutions receiving any sort of federal funding be mandated by the federal government to have some sort of programming for C-Day.
The law establishing the present holiday was created in 2004 with the passage of an amendment by Senator Robert Byrd to the Omnibus spending bill of 2004.[4] Before this law was enacted, the holiday was known as "Citizenship Day". In addition to renaming the holiday "Constitution Day and Citizenship Day," the act mandates that all publicly funded educational institutions, and all federal agencies, provide educational programming on the history of the American Constitution on that day.[5] In May 2005, the United States Department of Education announced the enactment of this law and that it would apply to any school receiving federal funds of any kind.[3] This holiday is not observed by granting time off work for federal employees.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constitution_Day_%28United_States%29
It's the law, and it's ironical. ;) I think in my previous previous job we hung up posters. In my previous job we were silo'd right out of any responsibility for it: they had high level executives who were responsible for hanging up posters, maybe a blurb on the campus wide info-TVs. :lol:

The narrator is going to ask you to choose a bag. Then he will say "Move one." You pick a bag in either direction one bag over from the bag you chose before. You'll do this a few times. Remember, you can go either direction, as long as there is a bag there.
This a video, so, you only get one chance at it, before you know what's what. Also, make sure you can hear your speakers/ear hole pluggers.

If you got 0-5 right, you're a dwarf planet: You're a small but vital part of the solar system, like Pluto and Ceres.
If you got 6-10 right, you're an inner planet: Whether you're hot stuff like Mercury or a cool customer like Earth, you've got lots of potential.
If you got 11-15 right, you're an outer planet: Like Jupiter or Neptune, you're a giant with many followers and you forge an impressive path.
If you got 16-20 right, you're a star: Congratulations! You deserve your own solar system of loyal planets and moons.
If you got 21-25 right, you're a supernova: You're a master of the universe (and the fount of all the interesting elements). Don't get cocky, you'll be a neutron star soon enough!
Old and busted: How well can you identify company logos?
New hotness:
How well can you draw company logos from memory?
Draw just like in MSPaint, hold down left mouse button to draw a line, let off the button to reposition and draw a new line, and draw the logo they've asked for, simple.
It must be:

I also got a B minus. I didn't know one of them at all, and had also forgotten one, so I didn't know that one either. I got F for each of those. But one of them I knew perfectly and got a C- just because I didn't draw as well as they liked.
I'd post my results, but then others would have an unfair advantage when they realized what the logos were and what I drew.
What the hell, I'll post two results, because everyone knows these. I call ROBBERY! I should have been graded the same on each. If my M gets an A- the Swoosh should surely get one too.

Yeah. I found myself not blinking and my contacts drying out. I gave up on level 9.

That's interesting. It was fun. On LCD monitors, the color changes with your vertical viewing angle so I kept tilting my monitor.
I got 48.
Nah, I'm just shitting you. I really got 18.
23, 26, 27
I found them hardest when they were in the corners. also the pale blue shades were trickier. but it made me happy because my vision thing has really been pissing me off recently, so now I at least I know I can still see some things properly :)
I got a 23 after about 4 tries.
Apparently 'Civil War General' is more easily attained than previously thought:

I also got 10 -4 of which were ones grav got wrong (3, 4, 7, 14). I was making edjumacated guesses, I know nothing about the civil war except what was required for my citizenship test.
On LCD monitors, the color changes with your vertical viewing angle...
Yeah, that was driving me nuts.
I had the most difficulty with the greens.
I struggled with the greens. I think I got to about 26 or 27 on the third go, but my windows explorer crashed before I saw my score
[eta] just wasted 15 minutes - for a score of 70 lol.

There are no answers given, so you'll have to assume you're right or wrong, but...
Identify The Famous Bald Head
I feel good about all my answers except the clown, and the last one.
The clown could be Sweettooth, Bozo, or Pennywise, idk.
I think the last one is from some post-apocalyptic flick (Mad Max-like), or maybe some cheap, cheesy space moobie (Buckaroo Banzai-ish). Maybe.
Is 7 Walter white?
I'd go with pennywise.
I couldn't get the clown, the one at the end, or the Japanse guy.
The Japanese guy, I think, is Pat Morita, Mr. Miyagi from 'Karate Kid'?
On the guy with the glasses up on his head, I went with Walter White from 'Breaking Bad'.
I wondered if it might be Mr Miyagi (though couldnt think of his name)
The last one was the scary birth defect big guy who ends up having a heart of gold in The Goonies.

A real hard worker you are, yup. If there's one thing you hate, it's being inactive or coming across as lazy. You'll put in more effort than anyone else, even if it may be against your better judgement or even if delagating your work is a smarter option. It's not surprising to see you working all day long, even if it's to help friends out. However, friendship is still important to you, so you will always, always stick to your commitments and keep your promises.
You're a tell-it-like-it-is pony, not holding your tongue and telling whoever whatever's on your mind or what your true thoughts are. Thankfully, you can still pick your words carefully and still keep some sensitivity towards what you say. But, others may find you irritable in appearance if you're not getting your way or you feel against something.
You are also most likely to be athletic and into staying fit, knowing that if you're not, you won't be able to keep up with your work. Fashion and looking good aren't on the top of your priorities, to say the least. You also tend to be very protective of your friends, standing up for them against anyone who is causing them problems, and usually succeeding in warding off any foes. You'd gladly lose a limb if it meant saving a friend's life.
Are you people serious? Fucking ponies? :eyebrow:

U.S. News Quiz: 10 Questions to Test if You’re a True Beatles Fanatic
ETA: I forgot to post my score. I got 9 outta 10. Missed question #9, about which album sold more copies in the US.
8 of 10.
I had no clue on one and just guessed, and for the other I had it narrowed down to 50/50 and just guessed wrong.
4 out of 10. And only one of those I actually knew, the others were lucky guesses. I am not a huge Beatles fan.
What Do We Do Now?
You have to figure out what to do. Fairly short little game. I finished it. It was fun.
I had a little trouble in the water room, but, it's fairly simple...
after you've figured it out. Not as fun second time 'round. Go figure.
Made me think a little, damn you.
I gave up on the water room.
Highlight for Hintage:
[COLOR="LemonChiffon"]Freeze the flow of water, and then turn it off and back on, the box will float up and push the red button[/COLOR].
I got the same.
Got the first couple wrong - then was on a roll til the Job passage about being a friend to owls...
Never a heavy/death metal fan, so strictly guesswork from the language.
15 out of 16, although some close calls.
I know the cadences of the Bible, but I don't know heavy metal at all.
(quite chuffed actually, even while admitting to guesswork!)
Well...Bible verses rarely rhyme, or have an easily recognizable rhythm.:D
OK, if it's not 6, what is it?
If you count the letters in each, it goes 3-5-4 on the top, and 3-4-? on the bottom, which could leave either seven or eight as the missing five-letter number.
It's a bullshit rationalization, but it's one way of looking at it from outside the box, anyway.
5.
1/2, 3/4, 5/5. One-half, three-fourths, a whole.
NFC.:headshake
1+3+5 add up to 9, so this is a problem that asks "what three numbers add up to nine?"
2 +4 will only add up to 9 if you add 3, so the answer is 3.
None of us? That makes me feel a little better.
Is it 3; because, 135 and 243 are divisible by 3 and powers of 3?
Is it 3; because, added all together the total is 18 which is the age of majority?
Is it 3; because, following the words "Think about it" there are two sets of three dots but it can't be six?
If it's not 3, then it must be 7; because, the beanbag landed on 6.

I, like Grav am moderately nefarious.
Moderately nefarious. Disappointing. It seems I need to work on narcissism and psychopathy, but I have Machiavellianism almost perfect.
You are infrequently vile – you mostly put others before yourself, though you may find occasions in which your dark side shines.
From glittering gold to music's charms, there's no shortage of well-known quotes. There is, however, a shortage of people who actually get them right. During an era when sharing is as close as a smartphone and as universal as a hashtag, accuracy is often left behind. How well do you know these famous quotations? Maybe not as well as you think.
[ATTACH]54571[/ATTACH]
I was kinda impressed with myself...
I got all of the Shakespeare ones right, and the ones where they have you choose the correct version of the quote, but I missed almost every one where they asked "which of these three quotes is off by one word?"
Well, butter my butt and call me a brioche; I fail at movie quotes.
Also, I am infrequently vile. Dang, I was hoping to qualify as at least Moderately Nefarious!
16/20. Kicking myself for missing 2 about Shakespeare.
Here's a short quiz about how
you see the world.
You have a uniquely creative personality!
The main things in life for you are your intuition, wisdom, joy, satisfaction and curiosity. The world for you is full of mystery, and is made up of so many different things, situations and people which are all constantly stimulating your imagination. Your life is painted in a multitude of beautiful colours, and you're always looking at it through the prism of creativity. You can turn anything that happens to you into something positive, and you never look for simple answers to life's questions.
Hmmm. :unsure:
I have a very stable personality.
That's good, Fargon, but what about the quiz?;p
That is what the quiz told me I am.
I have a very stable personality too.
thing is, I needed an all of the above choice for at least 3 of them. and 2 things at once on the others.

one I just read too fast, my bad.
one I don't agree with, spoiler text below:[COLOR="White"]
which kind of engine produces more torque, gas or diesel. answer in quiz was diesel because the greater chemical density of diesel fuel provides more power. Now I didn't look it up, maybe that part about the energy density is true. however, torque is related to a lot more than just the energy density of the fuel. gearing, bore x stroke, bore vs stroke for a given displacement, compression ratios, lotsa things. but, I quibble.[/COLOR]

Interesting.
I chose 1 in the online poll, and as off the time I took it, so had 78% of others. So either it's the Washington Post readership demographic, or people are not being forthcoming in the poll.
The people who would lie and say they rolled a six would also lie and say they're honest. Because...liars.

I got 100% too, but there were 7 that I didn't know. I only got them because I knew it wasn't the other choice, or if I didn't know either, it was obvious from the logo design. Lots of international brands you don't see at all in the US.
I have to say, all the clicking through between each logo was annoying.
Yes it was. I don't know why they have to make these quizzes and news stories such a pain in the ass.
Yes it was. I don't know why they have to make these quizzes and news stories such a pain in the ass.
It's probably because they get paid by the click or visit to the site. If you go to the site and do the quiz it's 1 payment. If you click to a new page for 10 questions, it's 10 payments.
It's always about the money.
!00%, too. The most difficult was the one that had the word Chrysler right on the logo. That made it reeeeeeal haaaard.:rolleyes:
I didn't count them but a lot more than 10.
Hey, wadda ya mean that's not the Puma emblem. :lol2:
94% - never heard of a few of those.
Don't feel bad, I got 65% but half the answers were wild guesses so that's 65% divided by 2 = 32.5% divided by 3 = 10.8% from 32.5% = 21.7% plus 32.5% = 54.2% is my real score. :blush:
I got 55%, with 95% shot-in-the-dark guessing (that is, every single one except which band appeared in Back to the Future III.)
Guess they weren't kidding about the "very hard" part.
I guessed them all and got 60%
I got 45%. I don't want to talk about it. I'm a failure, I'm gonna go pet my cat. Then I'm going to go to bed, so I can get up and feed my cats on time.
Don't feel bad, it's all really obscure information you'd have to be a groupie of that band to know. It's very very tough.
Also 85% of the musicians mentioned in the quiz averaged only 45% in their last year finals at high school, so that's really the perfect score
I feel so much better LOL thanks monster,

I made educated guesses in 8/20.
I made wild ass guesses in 12/20.
Statistically, with 3 choices for each question, I should have gotten around 30%, but I got 65%. I wonder if that means I am skilled at taking tests, or just lucky this time?
60% of the time I was 100% right. I second guessed my way out of another 3, but they were guesses in the first place, so

The Higher Lower Game - What gets Googled more?
They start by giving you a subject, and then you guess if the second subject has a higher or lower average monthly search count.
That's not a good explanation. Here's an example:
They'll tell you that the search term "NASA" has, on average, 1,000,000 monthly searches. Then, they'll give you a second subject, like, "Princess Diana". You have to guess which has more searches in a month.

We were watching the People's Choice Awards a couple years ago and were dismayed at all the acts that were winning and the great acts that were losing. And then I realized: The winner would be the person my Mother In Law would like more. So for each category, we considered which one my MIL would like, and that was the person/act who always won. We understood after that.
I suspect this Google game is very similar. Just ask yourself, who would glatt's MIL Google first?

I had to cheat on the stupid cat one, but I found Oscar with no problem. WTF. :|
The Oscar Search had my eyes darting all over the place. I could not maintain my search grid no matter how hard I tried.
It seems like most of those "find the X in the Y" pictures have the thing you're looking for in the lower right quadrant. I wonder if that's me misremembering, or a natural inclination to feel like the lower right is more innocuous than the others.
This one is particularly difficult.

the oscar was dead simple, as was the dog. I had a cat who would hide in the woodpile and snack on sparrows all day. I can't find the cat because a) I'm assuming it is in the woodpile as my cat was or b) my eyes are having trouble with tiny images. can I embiggen it?
I think I see the frog.
Yeah, a blurry cat is a rubbish hidden thing.
When looking for a hidden animal (talking 'bout real animals in a real photo, or irl) always look for the eye (well, most of the time).
Spoiler hint: [COLOR="LemonChiffon"]There is a large leaf in the center(ish) of the photo. Just to the right, there is a vertical frog on a vertical leaf. It is nearly the exact same color as the leaf, but you can see the dark, horizontal stripe (which is vertical in the pic) on it's eye. It's almost all you can see of him, he's so well camouflaged. Just the frog's right is another similar-sized leaf. Froggie is between the two largest leaves in the center/center-right of the pic.[/COLOR]:)

The States of Matter Quiz
I got 7 outta 10. Missed 1, 5, & 10...cause I'm a damned idjit.
Works for me. You are talking about the link in my post?
Yes, goes to review or graded?
Click either one and take the quiz.
I took 'graded', it waits til the end to tell you what you missed, the 'review' tells you immediately if you're right or wrong. Same quiz, same questions.
Sorry for the confusion.
I got "congratulations, you have 20 questions left, don't quit now."
Apparently, I don't have a long enough attention span.
"Brat" is not pronounced with a long a (ay) sound.

It does up here.
When pronounced with the long A, though, it is really more of an "ay-yuh," thus making "brat" two syllables.
They called Biff, Bee-olff.

You got 8 out of 10 correct

Glatt, I gave up on it too.
But then my answers were based on reading books by American authors and a little guesswork, so it wouldn't have been a real result.

You guys say '
brate'? Rhymes with rate?
You guys eat 'brate'-wurst?
I've never heard it said any way other than 'braht'. Rhymes with rot.
'Braht'-wurst.
It's not short for bratwurst, though, it's like "C'mere, you little bray-ut!"
In the quiz, they mention bratwurst. But it's like hat, not hate.
I got ya all beat. Down here in NC its a sausage dog.

I got that one right by process of elimination, but WTF is that thing?
Brat almost rhymes with fart round here :/
Magnavox Odyssey holds a special place in gaming history, as one of the earliest game consoles. From the 70s!
It connected to your TV but didn't have the graphics capability to do color, so there were film overlays, in 13" 19" and 25" sizes. The B&W graphics showed through the film and it was... colorful but not really.
Did you ever see one on person at the time?
Atari was my first.
The Odyssey was my first console and kind of led me down my future path

That is tougher.
How the fuck are you supposed to find Kansas when there are no state outlines? I was close. I clicked on Nebraska. Does Kansas come first for everyone?
Missouri was first for me, then Minnesota.
[ATTACH]58367[/ATTACH]
The first few are tougher because you have no reference point with which to work. Not to mention the time factor...
I always had trouble with New England in school. Couldn't keep those tiny, little places separated in my mind.
I got 88%. And it is harder at the beginning.
Missouri was first for me, then Minnesota.
Missouri is another very difficult one to come first.
But Minnesota is a border state. C'mon, Grav. ;)
That is tougher.

Click on "next" until you get one like Maine or Florida, and go from there

Of course, especially here, bigger is definitely better.

That was cool. Some were ridiculously easy, some I didn't have a clue. I suppose other people felt the same way, but with different ones than me.
That key didn't look like any kind of key I've ever seen.
Must be one of the furrin keys.
yeh, that was neat. Aside from the key, the cookie really threw me off too.
I can't remember what I thought the bottle cap was, but, I was wrong on that one.
I started off thinking the bottle cap was a red bell pepper.
I was wrong.

Deer & Elk Hunting Quiz (kinda long, 30 questions, I think)
Not so much hunting, as general knowledge of the animals. A few actual hunting-related questions.
I got 25 out of 30, but, the page jumped while loading and made me click the wrong answer for one of them, so, 26, really.:)

This pic is a bit unusual. Not all that unusual, just a bit. Okay, maybe you don't think it's unusual at all.
But, it is a pic. And it possesses an unusual characteristic, for lack of a better word that I cannot think of atm.
What's kinda weird about this pic?
[ATTACH]69860[/ATTACH]
The Dutch basketball players are all white? The court seems a little small?
It concerns the players, and the ref, but it's not that they're white...
It's a fairly mundane thing, but when ya notice it, ya can't help but see it.
Nobody is touching the floor? (except maybe the guy with the ball?)
by gaw, you're right!
and the guy is not even touching the ball, which makes it weirder
It's lava. Anybody who touches the lava is out, what, are you guys new or something? Weirdly, the lava in The Netherlands is [COLOR="DeepSkyBlue"]blue[/COLOR].
Please, please help
Help me get my feet back on the ground
Won't you please, please help me?
That's it. Neither the players, nor the ref, nor the ball, are touching the floor.
There are some spectators off to frame right, who I assume are touching the floor.
The one spectator, whose feet we see, is not touching the floor...
I think we saw this once before but some may not have.

Looks like a copperhead to me. I could be wrong, there are some imitators, and look-a-likes.
I treat all snek as venomous, though.
After looking at the YouTube video about this picture twice, I can find what is supposed to be the snake.

Ooh, I think you're right. Looks like it would be death for me then. (Assuming I ever went outdoors, which I try to strictly avoid.)
When I was in SF, there was a demonstration team at Ft. Bragg that had a small village set up in the woods. Visitors would walk through to see all the demonstrations. Along the way, they would see snake prepared for consumption and it was served to them. One of the other nicknames for the Green Berets, "snake eaters", developed from that.
Back then; also, there circulated an artist's drawing that depicted an Green Beret sitting on the ground, snarling, tying a dressing around his lower leg, with an opened "Snake Bite" kit on the ground next to him. Near him was a snake, coiled up, head raised, snarling, a dressing wrapped around its body, pulling taught a dressing tie held in its mouth, with a "Man Bite" kit on the ground next to it.
I don't think that drawing made it to the internet as I've never seen it there.
BTW, I did indeed catch and eat snakes during the survival portion of Special Forces training. Not something I'd buy at the grocery store.
