O'Quiz!!!! 


I am buried in real work and my blogging is lame, but I can still take a mean O'Quiz. I scored 7 against an average of only 4.76.

Do even better than me.

Thank you for your playing the O'Quiz!
You answered 9 of 10 correctly.
The average score on this O'Quiz is 4.76

I missed the Taser question.

I need a life.

9/10 which offsets a completely sub par 2 on the last one.

Also got a 7/10

I think a 70% gets me a D grade. Or, as they call it at Harvard, A-

I too got 7 of 10.

Missed on Stone's latest treason, the Rather quote (shameful of me, I know) and TASER. (Made a wild guess on that one. Should have known there would be more humor to shocking people electronically than I gave credit for.)

9/10. I missed the taser question too.

I got an 8 out of 10, although it would have been 7 if they hadn't (sort of) given away one of the answers:

"7. After Hillary Clinton unveiled her health care program, who denigrated the plan as a virtual knock-off of another candidate's plan?"

That indicates someone other than a candidate voiced the complaint, and knowing that Mrs. Edwards appears to be the mouthpiece for their campaign, that's who I guessed.

What I don't understand is how the test-takers do so poorly overall. If you weren't into the news, why would you take such a test? Would you even know who Bill O'Reilly is? Wouldn't most of the test-takers be people watching his show? (I'm making the assumption that all of the questions are derived from show segments.) It just seems strange that the people who would take that specific test would do so poorly. Bill and the gang must scratch their heads, wondering what they're doing wrong.

Best Line of the Week:

"Should have known there would be more humor to shocking people electronically than I gave credit for." - joated

I'm sure we all felt the same way when we missed the Taser question. Humor, coming from the people who invented something just shy of the electric chair? Who woulda guessed!

7- had chosen "no one's pushing me out" but bailed at the last second. Whenever I face a fork in the road, I go the wrong way.

Your link inexplicably took me to O'Reilly's Great American Culture Quiz. 5 questions, got all but the first right. Beat that, suckas.

Ditto the Greenman.

5/5

Darned, I would have gotten them all correct but a group of African Americans were acting up and distracted me.

(ahem)
