Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for March 07, 2013

The guys here will be thrilled!

With what you have, happy shall I be.

Religion Quiz= 29/ 3.

Quiz: 29 out of 32.

Forget the religion quiz, the one that matters is the car logo quiz. I got 18 out of 20. I failed to recognize the Saab and Smart logos.

RE: Are you smarter- religion- 26/32logos- 19/20

Her cups runneth over.

Missed one on each. Didn’t know that Porsche used a horse in their logo, and I maintain that calling Joseph Smith a “Mormon” is like calling Jesus a Catholic. Smith founded the LDS, but wasn’t a Mormon himself (how could he have been?).

Yipee! I also got 28/4. I think that they should have had a question about what comic strip is most closely associated with the profligate use of floating exclamation points, but I guess they don’t consider comic pages as a religion. Heathens.

I am ashamed to state I would have failed the Frog Blog quiz, but then I am a typical Frog Applause reader.

Re Quiz: Religion, 29/32; cars, 15/20. Now I’m worried that I shall be considered for human heaven but not for car heaven..Why couldn’t the religious quiz have a “don’t care” option?

Well, you’re not exactly my type, blondie (I’d prefer a more petite, demure, discreet hottie), but happy me you may….

Love those Eastern European gals!

FB—The only quiz where I figured I had any chance was the car logos. I aced that one, 20/20 (honest! really! no cheating!). Stayed away from the others (the comics/FA one looked really tough!)….

Why is Vald sending me spam?

There’s a quiz? Can’t get past 1st panel here.

32/32 on religion but, to be strictly fair, the memory was a bit hazy and I had to guess at one of them.

Mrs. Partridge       the sauce   hitting       has been.

Well, I scored thirty correct on the religion quiz, gave up on the car logo quiz and I have no idea how I did on the Frog Blog quiz (although a little box showed five of twenty).

Or do you mean you want to gratify me instantly? At my age, it takes a little longer, I’m afraid.

Got 30/32 on the religion quiz and 18/20 on the cars. Answered “Oldsmobile” for what was plainly a “Buick.” Stupid.

And on the Frog Blog quiz? I was lamely guessing through that whole thing. Sorry, Teresa.

she’s lovely… must be Vlad’s sister?

Scored far too high on religion and cars, and pretty abysmal on the FB quiz. I can only conclude that I know too much about things I don’t really care about, and too little about stuff that is really important. Argh, I’ve wasted my life.

I do indeed like happy endings.

I am SOOO happy!

Not sure how I can be smarter than what I am, but my score on that was 30/32. Missed one supreme court question — answered what I wished it was even though I suspected it was wrong. Just got one plain wrong.The car logos was pretty much done as fast as I could click it, though on a couple, I had to read every choice so I could rule out everything else.

The model in the strip seems to be June Wilkinson, famous for her appearances in Playboy and other magazines and in a number of films in the 1960s. Google searches will generally bring up NSFW images.

You didvery happy memake

I was too lazy to post my quiz results the proper way (here in the comment using html) so I just made it my avatar (which is worse, lame or lazy? – it doesn’t matter, b/c between the two of us we’ve covered the spectrum).

Your Friend in Backwoods Redneck Trashiness (and the only person ever (so far as I know) accused by Joe-Allen “Don’t Call Me Joe” Doty of being you (some people may cling to their 15 minutes of FA fame a little too long, but it’s all I’ve got)).

/s/ Rotifer

P.S. I had one educated guess (Maimonides) and one coin flip (Jonathan Edwards), but I guessed right both times (so there).

Then start by not trying to confuse me!!

I got 31 out of 32 correct on the religion quiz. I’m a Pagan. Does this mean that Pagans are even smarter than atheists?

Photos with kittens/cats: We had many when I was growing up. Here is a photo with 2 cousins from 1042:

Like you, I had trouble loosing the “script error”. As a fairly new reader I did not do the Blog quiz and the others are not interesting to me.

I think all of Teresa’s readers trying to take the quiz crashed it. I had to wait forever for the pages to load sometimes. I managed 31/32 but I think I may have taken a similar quiz before as some of the questions seemed familiar.

re: Nuns on a Blog- 7 of 8 seem headed in the same direction, creatures of habit that they are. The other must be Sister Mary Mary, Quite contrary, that one.

Re: Are as smart as;Religon: 28/32 88%Logos: 9/20 45%1FB: 13/20 65% 26 pts (out of 40)

1 Should have paid more attention to Top Gear (UK)

But I am a Pearls reader. I have a very broad range of humor appreciation.

Well, 29/32 for religion (should have been 30 but missed an easy one) and only 15/20 for the auto logos (but 100% for all the Asian brands which is only proper for living in Japan 20+ years).

I wish I could be happy.I don’t think it will ever happen to me.

I’m VERY happy already with my man, and never need more. We chatted for a total of around 5 hours on Skype last night- right before bed.

Hell, I’m a lapsed Frisbeetarian, and even I got 31 right on the religion test…

Re: GoComics and Women’s History Month – I think Morgan Freeman’s comments about Black History Month are especially relevant.

WALLACE: Black History Month, you find … FREEMAN: Ridiculous.  WALLACE: Why?  FREEMAN: You’re going to relegate my history to a month?  WALLACE: Come on.  FREEMAN: What do you do with yours? Which month is White History Month? Come on, tell me.  WALLACE: I’m Jewish.  FREEMAN: OK. Which month is Jewish History Month?  WALLACE: There isn’t one. FREEMAN: Why not? Do you want one?  WALLACE: No, no.  FREEMAN: I don’t either. I don’t want a Black History Month. Black history is American history.  WALLACE: How are we going to get rid of racism until …?  FREEMAN: Stop talking about it. I’m going to stop calling you a white man. And I’m going to ask you to stop calling me a black man. I know you as Mike Wallace. You know me as Morgan Freeman. You’re not going to say, “I know this white guy named Mike Wallace.” Hear what I’m saying?

I got 11 out of 20 on the FB test. I’m from the camp that says if most students fail a test then the teacher needs to whip them until they remember the answers.

Re: blog – Ladies of GoComics. They forgot Skin Horse, too. Shaenon K. Garrity.

I tried taking the religion test a couple of times and stopped when the page blanked. I backtracked and found a link to an article on the impending collapse of the evangelical movement. The writer’s attitude was that evangelicals are the only true Christians and their collapse would lead to a horrible unchristian society. I think I learned why the devout did so much worse on that religion test than we atheists do.

I can only recall seeing Frances Bavier in one production other than the Andy Griffith show. That’s “The Day the Earth Stood Still,” from 1951. Here’s a brief clip of her:
