I can't believe there isn't a thread like that. Stuff you burn time with, besides the forums (at work, at home I got games :P) - quizes, tests, stuff like that.

I played around with this at work today. Got 29/30, couldn't figure out #17... Give it a go :)

As a matter of fact I swallowed one of these about two hours ago and the explanation is that it is, in fact, my hand.

I managed 17/30 without cheating (IMDB) and got all but 3 with cheating.

Intelligence Test

IIRC, I got 27/33- my mind is ordered to understand this particular vein of testings, apparently. Some are head-slappingly obvious, some are way too goddamned obscure. Enjoy!

Oh and I got 14 or 15 on the movie thing. Some of the pics were too small for me to get a handle on wtf was going on.

Drat I'm also stuck at 27....but I can't stop! Must get last 6...

#32 seems obvious but I've checked my spelling so it is something less obvious...

Edit: I give up. I didn't get:

28, 29, 30, 31, 32 or 20

28 I should have gotten. (Looking at an online spoiler) 29 I might have also gotten if I had thought some more, was on the right track. (Was on the right track in 28, had the p) For 30 and 31 are near impossible, I don't even know what 31 means. 20 is just silly.

According to the spoiler my answer for 32 was right so who knows on that.

I had 15 when I accidentally closed that browser window instead of the dead link I got from Wolf's site.  Damnit, I should do more tabbed browsing.

 I know where you're going with 32 and I had the same problem with 13 after checking my spelling there.  All I can think of is I added an extra space somewhere or something like that.

I got 32 - it was with 2 n's.

Overall I'm stuck at 20 correct :(  Just a third rate genius afterall.

I got 20 on the movie thing to.

Got 19 on the movie one.  Would have had 20 if it had accepted the US title for one of them (I banged my head against the wall for an hour trying to think of what the movie was, finally checked IMDB and found out that I was right, but only for the US release).  Bah!

20 so far on the intelligence one.  For an "intelligence test" it sure does require a lot of random trivia knowledge (number 33 cracked me up but I'm certain there are people out there who'd never get it in a million years).  I like math puzzles better.   tongue

My aunt (a doctor) that was paranoid that I was smarter than she gave me one of those intelligent tests years ago at a Thanksgiving visit.  She beat me because I couldn't get any of the Bible related ones.  So that confirmed two of her notions: that she was king of the smarties in the family and that my mother raised me to be a godless heathen.

Got a 27.  Some I know I should get, but work hurt brain.

Are you saying the Simpson's Intelligence test found on this page is not a real test? I dare you to beat my score!

Of course, almost anyone can beat me on the sexual purity test on that same page.

I saw the tab title 'What to do with an empty Whiskey/glass bott..', was slightly worried, given what people here are likely to link to.  Clicked the tab, saw 'Fitting it all inside' and got even more worried... Then the image loaded.  Whew.
