Y’know, some of these answers are really funny if you misremember which question was which. Like, “What do you get up for in the middle of the night?” “Have sex”.

If you squint a bit, “sex” is a reasonable answer for half the questions.

I _never_ need to urinate when I’m already in bed, but I went with “Urinate” for #2.

Urinate is _always the first thing I do_ after wake-up … but having used that answer for #2 I wrote something else for #7. ☹ :o

I’ll be happy with a C+ on this test.

No, no, you go with “urinate” for #1. #2 is defecation.

I think you have some holdovers from last Feud under #1 and #9.

Either that, or there are a lot more people who monkey once a week than I would have thought.

I think something is slightly off with question #9. Or, I just never realized that wardrobe selection had any impact on my cell phone. Although it would be good to know that I won’t receive a call while wearing a condom 🙂

Also the _Monkey_ answer to question #1 is out of place.

Ninjaed!

Wow, I think this might be the best I’ve ever done on one of these.

I might dispute that “laser”, “ray gun”, and/or “plasma rifle” should be lumped together, but I suppose it’s iffy: A plasma rifle certainly isn’t a laser, but either one could be a ray gun.
