trivia and multiple-choice

[newmistakes]

Did you know that thirty-seven years ago today a new type of maze-based video game was released in Japan? But when the manufacturers tried to sell it to an American company, there was a problem. The American company refused to release a game called “Puck Man”, knowing that kids would vandalise the letter “P”. So the name was changed to “Pac-Man”

4 a
5 c
6 b
7 a

Actually scrap all that. I think the answers are all C.

Omg Imoh!! Seriously?! You think I'm some kind of "The Bachelor" watcher?! Ewww! I hoped you thought better of me than that :P Gross!!

Before you scrapped it all and went for C you would have got Questions 2, 3, 6 and 7 correct and been given a half mark for Question 4 (which was both a AND b). That would have given you a leading total of 4.5/7. But then you had to go and C everything up, so your actual final score was just 1.5/7 haha :P

Bwahahaha well now that you mention it... I thought you'd have it on in the background for lols.

As for my adjust-down score, it just goes to show what my teachers at school said about multiple choice tests. Go with your first instinct. Dammit!

Haha nooooo just watching ads for that show makes me want to hurl my stomach contents :P

You should always listen to teachers, that's for sure. I'm sure you know that better than most :)

What about that one where they marry but hadn't even met them before. The ads for that one just made my draw hit the floor. Every time!

LOL! So true.... ;-P

[newmistakes]

Haha Dee (endlessblush) made me watch an episode of that when it first came out and I almost lost my mind it was so awful! It was like watching a very badly acted train wreck!

I saw ads for that recent Last Resort show and that seemed even worse than any show I'd ever heard of before - just when you think reality TV can't get any worse a new show plums a new depth of horror :)

[tigerweave]

You watched a program??? I'm deeply impressed!

LOL yes to train wreck *amused*

Haven't seen those ads. I'll look out for them. There's a new Bear Grylls The Island or something. I am looking forward to those.

She practically dared me, and I find it very hard to turn down dares haha. But there wasn't enough daring in the world to make me watch another ep, that's for sure.

If you've been lucky enough to avoid those ads, don't look for them for goodness sake! I wish I'd missed them too :) Ooh I haven't seen those ads - it seems we are at ads cross-purposes, Imoh :)

[tigerweave]

Hmmmmm, now I know you can't turn down dares .... *ponders the possibilities*

Alright I'm forwarned thus forearmed about those ads. THANK you for that!
