Ministry of Silly Links

Kinda fun but very long vocabulary quiz.

I got a 165. Nicholas got a 147. Troi stopped doing the quiz in order to chat in the Dawson's Creek Forever forums and renew his subscription to Modern Bride.

Thanks to Michele at A Small Victory.

I see a lot of Fraygrants on the top scores list.

137. But I want to make it clear that I don't appreciate this divisive intrusion to my blog perusing self-esteem.

What's next, beating some arbitrary score in order to post? Shameless. Shouldn't my ethnicity also count? (insert squiggly thingy made up of random, heretofore known as punctuation marks, to imply my sarcasm.)

172, but I suspect it's mostly 'cause I face-planted on the spacebar nodding off in the middle.

Posted by: cthulhu on June 9, 2004 11:03 PM

182, but I didn't have the distraction of a copy of Modern Bride with which to contend.

Well, that's a bit disappointing:

"You got 158 out of 200 correct."

Virtually every one of the ones I missed, in retrospect, no heterosexual should know. Or so I tell myself for comfort.

Posted by: Patton on June 10, 2004 02:37 AM

I got a 157. I missed all the gay questions too.

Posted by: rdbrewer on June 10, 2004 07:52 AM

174, beeyotch! Mmm hmm, you got served.

Posted by: iowahawk on June 10, 2004 08:26 AM

163. I was tired from studying. But it's a nice kinda-sorta ego-boost before I take my LSATs this Monday.

Posted by: The Mooch on June 10, 2004 08:43 AM

I was the person who originally linked that into the Fray, back in late 97 or 98. I used to be on the list, too! I don't know how I got bumped, because I'm pretty sure I was in the 170s. I'll take it again and see.

Posted by: Cal on June 10, 2004 10:30 AM

175, you fatuous sons-of-bitches!

Posted by: Jimmy Page on June 10, 2004 10:35 AM

See, I just got 176. I swear he must have bumped me off the list. How annoying.

Or maybe I'm just smarter now.

Posted by: Cal on June 10, 2004 11:26 AM

161. That sounds about right. Smart enough to be smart, but not smart enough to be liberal.

Posted by: Aaron on June 10, 2004 12:14 PM

I got them all!
I shot nine under!

Posted by: B. Blinton on June 10, 2004 12:50 PM

Read em' and weep, I'm ringing the bell with a final tally of 7. Boo-yah!

Posted by: sonofnixon on June 10, 2004 03:14 PM

Whoops! Short changed myself, there. I double checked. I got 9 (nine).

Is that good?

Posted by: sonofnixon on June 10, 2004 03:15 PM

I'm kidding. I had 247 correct.

Schmoll: 53% of New Jersey likely voters say their neighbors are voting for Ciattarelli, while 47% say the cheater/grifter Mikie Sherrill
The "who do you think your neighbors are voting for" question is designed to avoid the Shy Tory problem, wherein conservative people lie to schmollsters because they don't want to go on record with a likely left-winger telling them who they're really voting for. So instead the question is who do you think your neighbors are voting for, so people can talk about who they themselves support without actually having to admit it to a left-wing rando stranger recording their answers on the phone.

Interesting football history: How the forward pass was created in response to the nineteen -- 19! -- people killed playing football in 1905 alone
The original rules of football did not allow forward passes. The ball was primarily advanced by running, with blockers forming lines with interlocked arms and just smashing into the similarly-interlocked defensive lines. It was basically Greek hoplite spear formations but with a semi-spherical ball. As calls to ban the sport entirely grew, some looked for ways to de-emphasize mass charges as the primary means of advancing the ball, and some specifically championed allowing a passer to throw the ball forward.

Pitfall was a really good game. I don't know if it was available on Intellivision. Update: It was. But I don't know if it's included in the new unit.
