BBC quiz - Can you tell a wildcat from a pet moggy?

Without looking at the quiz, No, you cannot.

Too much scrolling. Do not want.

Those multiple page links are almost as bad as Pintrest. The bane of the internet.

What are you talking about links?
Go to the linked page, scroll down the 16 cats and the answers below.

Oh. Yeah. I forgot wich page I was talking about. Never mind.

This.

What the fuck are you talking about, not my link. :confused:

Your crappy link broke my internet!

Oh, wait, no... it's working. Nice Cats.

The States of Matter Quiz

I got 7 outta 10. Missed 1, 5, & 10...cause I'm a damned idjit.

Fucked up link

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.

Try this one: http://offbeat.topix.com/quiz/17296?...5PQCO7SG9RQKVB
I got 80%.

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.

Dumbasses.

Attachment 58106

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

missed 1 & 10

So did I

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.

For all you old farts out there, how good is your memory?

I got 96% right.

I was born in 1980 and I got all of them right until I got tired of it. Their quizzes are too long.

And they know it.
Attachment 58279

They are just hoping you don't have ad blocker and just keep clicking through getting served up ads.

That got boring pretty quickly... too easy. Guess I'm a fossil.

I'm tempted by Magnavox Odyssey.

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

goddammit

You're no quitter. You slogged through the whole quiz!

Simple geography quiz
I got 100%.

Too easy.

That's what I thought.

Here's a tougher one

Attachment 58366

Go me, go me, go me!!

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.

Attachment 58367

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 is another very difficult one to come first.

But Minnesota is a border state. C'mon, Grav. ;)

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

Everyday Objects In Macro

I didn't count them, but I got most of them before the zoom out.

How many of these items can you identify before the zoom out?

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.
