NYT quiz of 2020. (SPOILER ALERT - some of the questions are about COVID. I will deny ever having told you that.)

I got 17 out of 30. It's much harder than the regular weekly NYT quiz.

I flunked the sample questions yesterday, and saw no point in going any farther.
And I thought I was a bit of a news hound. I even have an online subscription to the NYT.

23/30, largely because things are even worse than I believed (guessed too high on Lebron NBA championships, too low on Swedish deaths, too dumb on TV.)

I gave up because the state election map still hadn't downloaded after 6 minutes

On Darren's computer the state election map still hasn't downloaded after 2 months.

Oh, and I got 17.

Too bad.

You should lite up more often.

Been lighting up daily since August- only way I’ve survived the election lead up and aftermath.

You should probably replenish your supply before it gets dark, or else you might have to use a Bud Lite. ;)

Continual, habitual use of mood-altering chemicals.  That explains a lot.
