ReplyDeleteIt all makes perfect sense to me! (not!)
ReplyDeletewell, i got two of them right. but yeah, i still failed. oh well...
ReplyDeletehey i got four right though i did think th hundred years war lasted 107 lol
ReplyDeleteDidn't get any of them wrong, as I answered not cat, not camel, etc, if I didn't know. And got 4,6,7,9 and 10 right. Which, I think, qualifies me as a genius. Yay me.
ReplyDeleteTo be fair I got to the black box question, realised a trick was a-foot, then went back and thought it through properly. Tee hee.
I always flunk these things, but who would have thought of some of these answers!! Just not fair!!
ReplyDeleteBoy, that Jvs! Genius.
ReplyDeleteSchnoodlepooh: It's okay 'cause you're so cute.
Kenju: Exactly.
Lime: that's two better than I did.
Razorbeck: You da man!
Rachel, honey, life ain't fair. Period. Get over it.
Hoo boy, I got all FOUR!!
ReplyDeleteOh I love me.
wooo hooo
ReplyDeleteI got 6 of 10 right!!
I feel so special.I am so using some of these on my weekly quizzes.
wow - I didn't get a single one right!
ReplyDeleteD'oh indeed!
I got them all right, mainly because I got them all wrong when I did this quiz before.
ReplyDeleteI didn't get a one of 'em. :P
ReplyDeleteThe cartoon reminds me of a book I read recently (that I don't recommend): Wicked.
Great post TLP - i failed - but i had fun. i'm gonna share this one with my hospital friend....
ReplyDeleteI thought that tests shoudl reflect our knowledge of what we have previously leanred. I looked through the last few posts and nothing, not a mention of anything that would lead up to this! As a student a normally brain-sized Human being I demand a fair test based on covered material!
ReplyDeleteYeah. I pretty much failed that.
ReplyDeleteI knew about the black box, and for some reason I knew the October Revolution one too.
ReplyDeleteCanary Islands was named after us Dogs? Must have been Old Yeller! Woof!
ReplyDeletei knew they were all trick questions and i still failed miserably. so, you know... i really am just...sad. (tee hee!) : D
ReplyDeleteCan I just mention that the Canary Islands are in the Atlantic ocean and not the Pacific. Well, I hope they are, otherwise I am very lost - have lived on the largest island of Tenerife for 14 years. LOL!
ReplyDeleteAnd yeah, the islands were named after the dogs that were found here. Then the birdies got named after the islands.
