Easy Quiz By Corrine


Of course Corrine doesn't like things too easy.

She won't even drink a beer unless you weld the cap on first!

Here is her quiz.


Corrine's Quiz - Pay Attention!

The average person only gets 7 correct.
This is based on U.S. info, so use all lobes of your brain.

This can be more difficult than it looks - it just shows how little most of us really see!
There are 25 questions about things we see every day or have known about all our lives. How many can you get right? These little simple questions are harder than you think ..
Put your thinking caps on. No cheating! No looking around! No getting out of your chair! No using anything on or in your desk or computer! Can you beat 23?? (The average is 7)

Write down your answers as you go. Check answers (on the bottom), AFTER completing all the questions.

REMEMBER - NO CHEATING!!! BE HONEST!!!

That means no looking at your phone or anything on your desk... Then, before you pass this on to your friends, change the number on the subject line to show how many you got correct.

LET'S JUST SEE HOW OBSERVANT YOU RE ALLY ARE.

I ain't buying it.

Luck is good for maybe fifty percent.

Maybe.

I'm guessing you have a photographic memory.

Thanks for the good press, Tramp, but it comes too late. My son is a teenager (14) which means he knows everything and that I am dumber than a doorknob...Beleive me, we have this discussion at least twice a week. I am hoping he lives long enough to graduate, move out on his own, and experience the truth for himself.

Johnd,
I am Tramps brother-in-law, Jim.
I am 42 years old and have 3 children.
One teen and 2 younger.
I have experienced the truth for myself and I have to say
that sometimes even I can't handle the truth.
At times I wonder, is the world becoming more insane or am I? I thought I knew everything as a teen, too.
I guessed wrong on most accounts.

Hey hey! There is nothing wrong with being 14. I am 14.

For the 35th time!

And Jim, I'm sorry to say this, but it's not you.

As teenagers, we did NOT:
-shoot our fellow classmates.
-have sex with our teachers.
-join gangs.
-have drive-by shootings.
-and have the multitude of craziness that has now replaced youth.

Acer, cling tight to your parents wisdom. You may survive this disease now known as 'the teens'.
