3 of my 7 wild-ass guesses were correct this time.

5/7 for me, luckily I'm a Napalm Death fan.

4/7 this time for me.

I think that's the most I've ever gotten with 7 complete guesses (not actually knowing a single one of the answers).

ETA: Oh, come on....hamsters? minks? hippos? Deputy Speakers? Napalm Death? :roll:

4/7...I actually knew two of them...

There's a little trick to upping your score a bit over what it would otherwise be...(if that's your objective)

Whenever you see a question where one of the answers really looks out of place, (like question 2 in this quiz) that's nearly always the correct answer....

1/7------- at least I got the Woodstock question right.

Your collective inability to acknowledge this obvious truth makes you all look like fools.

Wow, this was a particularly provincial trivia contest...

(The Archers? Really?)

2/7...

(Got #1 right, I'm a big Boris fan...He ought to be the next PM... )

Then guessed right at one other British TMZ questions...

Boris is a mealy mouthed bully boy of the worst kind. Don't be fooled by the clever "simple buffoon" act, ths man is a cunt.

4/7 but barcoding trains sounds too reasonable to be a good fake story. All the technology exists, its simple and robust, it would serve a purpose in getting real-time data into the system. Ok, they got me.
