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.

xoxoxoBruce 04-29-2016 12:42 PM

Well you did better, last time you only got 39. :haha:

infinite monkey 04-29-2016 12:55 PM

I don't know how you can miss any of the spelling when all the words are right in front of your face. I mean, you've seen the words before, you pick the one that looks like all the million times you've seen the word. Unless all you ever read are social media posts, then all bets are off. :p:

Find The Invisible Cow

A voice repeats "cow" over and over, increasing/decreasing in volume and intensity the warmer/colder you get as you moove (<--:D) your cursor around the screen.

Surprisingly fun. But, then again, I'm pretty easy to entertain, sometimes.

I see it!


in white: right hand side, three rows in, about half way down

glatt 05-02-2016 01:05 PM

COW! COW! COW! COW!

:lol:

Clodfobble 05-02-2016 01:46 PM

That cow game is surprisingly fun.

classicman 05-07-2016 09:59 AM

OK, I just did the car quiz. I got 35 correct.
Either that is ridiculously easy or I know more about cars than I thought.
Option 2 is not an option.

Sir David Attenborough quote quiz

40% on the first one and the same on the second one.

Spexxvet 05-10-2016 09:29 AM

50% on the first, a putrid 10% on the second

Is the bicycle traveling from right to left, or left to right?

http://cellar.org/2016/bicyclepath.jpg


Answer: right to left

Explanation

DanaC 05-10-2016 03:36 PM

What bicycle?

xoxoxoBruce 05-10-2016 03:39 PM

The one that made those tracks. :p:

fargon 05-10-2016 04:33 PM

I found the panda.

DanaC 05-10-2016 05:20 PM

Was it riding a bicycle?

fargon 05-10-2016 05:22 PM

Unfortunately No.

The chicken and burgers threw me off, as I hadn't even heard of a couple of those chains.

glatt 05-23-2016 02:10 PM

You got 8 out of 15 right!
You did better than 24% of those who took this quiz!

DanaC 05-23-2016 02:33 PM

I got 10 out of 15....which considering only half of those chains exist over here is pretty scary :p

xoxoxoBruce 05-23-2016 06:50 PM

7, mostly luck, because I rarely eat the stuff.

Clodfobble 05-23-2016 10:07 PM

Okay, but, in several of those you can see the packaging, including ubiquitous chain colors.

fargon 05-24-2016 11:27 AM

I got 5 right.

Gravdigr 06-16-2016 03:13 PM

Not a quiz, but, still an interesting little game.

Circle The Cat (should be Encircle The Cat)

Click on a circle. The cat will jump. Click on another circle to block the cat. The cat will jump. The cat will not jump onto circles you have clicked. Keep the cat from exiting the square. If the cat exits the square, he will run away.

Easy, peasy, lemon squeezy, right?;)

glatt 06-16-2016 03:34 PM

that was fun

DanaC 06-16-2016 05:03 PM

an hour of chasing a fucking cat.

Was fun. Very satisfying when you manage to corner the little bastard. But then you think, yea I can do that again and you're back chasin him again, thinking 'one more and then I'm done'. Ha!

lumberjim 06-16-2016 06:14 PM

i got his number. stay at least 2 dots away until he's cornered

fargon 06-16-2016 06:21 PM

I trapped the cat. Now what do I do?

lumberjim 06-16-2016 06:24 PM

about 1 in 5 tries

fargon 06-16-2016 06:26 PM

It took me 3. I'm so fing awesome.

lumberjim 06-16-2016 06:32 PM

Ok, do it 30 more times and catch him 10

Part of an old 1919 IQ testing procedure.

One minute to find as many single matching figures as you can.

fargon 06-23-2016 06:26 AM

Try this: http://offbeat.topix.com/quiz/17284/qidx1
I got 100%

glatt 06-23-2016 07:24 AM

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.

fargon 06-23-2016 07:26 AM

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.

Spexxvet 06-23-2016 07:54 AM

!00%, too. The most difficult was the one that had the word Chrysler right on the logo. That made it reeeeeeal haaaard.:rolleyes:

xoxoxoBruce 06-23-2016 01:08 PM

I didn't count them but a lot more than 10.
Hey, wadda ya mean that's not the Puma emblem. :lol2:

Gravdigr 06-23-2016 01:14 PM

94% - never heard of a few of those.

Gravdigr 06-25-2016 12:47 PM

The Very Hard Classic Rock Quiz - 20 questions

I got 60%.:(

xoxoxoBruce 06-25-2016 01:31 PM

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:

Clodfobble 06-25-2016 01:45 PM

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.)

Gravdigr 06-26-2016 03:00 PM

Guess they weren't kidding about the "very hard" part.

monster 06-26-2016 06:50 PM

I guessed them all and got 60%

fargon 06-26-2016 08:43 PM

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.

xoxoxoBruce 06-26-2016 08:51 PM

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.

monster 06-26-2016 10:04 PM

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

fargon 06-27-2016 06:45 AM

I feel so much better LOL thanks monster,

glatt 06-27-2016 07:33 AM

I got 65%! Woo!

I knew 0/20.
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?

Spexxvet 06-27-2016 08:10 AM

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

lumberjim 06-27-2016 09:17 AM

55%

I knew where Hendrix died, Why Morrison was arrested and that John Paul Jones was the only member of Zeppelin that was doing arrangements for other bands. There were a couple guesses that I had some inkling on, Like Wicked Lester, and ZZtop... but the rest were cold guesses.

fargon 06-30-2016 04:37 PM

Here's one we hope you really like.
