You correctly answered 11 out of the 11 possible questions, which means you did better on the quiz than 98% of the general public.

Oh and I fell down most consistently on number questions.

I thought it was trouble about teh gheys.
I was being too judgemental.

Well, it was because I saw a clip on AfterElton.com the other day where someone joked that you couldn't smoke a fag in Iowa (?) but you could MARRY one! Yuk yuk yuk. It was apparently someone well known, but not to me.

I got 10 out of 11. I wasn't sure of the unemployment rate. I was close, but not close enough.

Harsh!

OK, I got 7. I always get confused over whether we are currently fighting about unions or same-sex marriage and which branch of the government has the biggest dick.
