A pathetic 62.75 – my memory is geared to remember music, not lyrics, so it’s not that surprising.
It probably didn’t help that I tended to put in comic answers where I didn’t know the correct one (You mean the answers aren’t “gorillas in the mist” or “lay a mint on my pillow”?). But I got the three bonus questions easily.
I don’t know when I was born. Before the church lady? Before Just Say Know? I was born in 1978, where does that put me?
(And I only got 35 points, but I didn’t start learning English till 1989)
There were two or three questions with multiple blanks that I knew all but one of the blanks and didn’t get anything for. I demand compensation. I was born in '86 and I got a 62.2.
Just a note – if we’re all going to go flocking over there to see the SD mention, please give a thought to dropping a micropayment to the creator. Her bandwidth charges were through the roof when the quiz took off beyond her expectations, last month it was to the tune of $150.
In my defense, I was born in 1971, so I grew up to this stuff, plus I’m a college deejay whose show focuses on 80s music, Frank Zappa and Tom Waits. So if I don’t know this stuff, I’m screwed.
I got 95.5. Some of them were hard with the few words given. But I did get some weird ones. And I would have gotten Elvira too if instead of doing oom-pa-ba-mau-mau, they would have said oom-pa-ba, oom-pa-ba, oom-pa-ba-mau-mau.
I roller-skated to that song at the roller rink. Born in 1970, I probably should’ve done better…
Yeah, but the song is called “Jessie’s Girl”. That is the correct spelling of the song title. Yes, I know. Jesse is a man and Jessie is a woman. Whoever wrote the song made a mistake.
