Actually, one of the interesting things doing this was actually writing out some dopers names and learning how I've been mis-reading them for years.

Hey, I'm not last - what happened :eek:

Whoah!

I've always thought it was Leddervedder.... :eek:

No you're right, I'm just dumber than someone is if really not all that bright.


I also parse Fretful Porpentine as Fretful Porcupine. I always pictured a cute little Porcupine, worrying about stuff.


So I googled it and found out that it is just how Shakespeare misspelled porcupine.

[Drain Bead]

Holy crap! I usually SUCK at these.

To clarify: The poster's actual screen surname is Lendervedder, with an n in the third position, as opposed to Really's previous erroneous Leddervedder reading.

This was tougher than I thought. I wanted questions that would have 2-3 big responses. I thought mountain state would have a much bigger split. The tourism question worked out pretty well I thought. I clearly didn't put enought thought into the first lady question.


Then of course tabulating the responses sucks ass.
