This is a special day and deserves a special pop quiz. Because April is the cruelest month and because there are reports that Shakespeare’s skull is missing I thought the subject should be poetry. For previous pop quizzes you can click the category over on the right or you can use this handy link. And now without further ado about nothing here is the quiz.
Romantic comedy or Three Stooges short?
- Hold the Lion, Please
- The Adventure of the Red-Headed League
- Scrambled Aches
- Rhapsody Rabbit
- The Five Orange Pips
- A Scandal in Bohemia
- A-Lad-In His Lamp
- Guided Muscle
- Chariots of Fur
- The Problem of Thor Bridge
- Foxy by Proxy
- The Wistful Widow of Wagon Gap
- Hyde and Hare
- Xoloitzcuintli
- Hopalong Casualty
- Devil’s Feud Cake
- Gaslight
- Wild About Hurry
- What’s Opera, Doc?
- The Gulag Archipelago
Scoring:
18-20: Seek professional help
13-17: Hey, that’s not bad!
10-16: We’ve got a live one here.
5-9: You cheated and this is still the best you did?
1-4: No, really, seek professional help.
These were tough! (I’m putting my colleagues through their paces…40 min left til quitting time!)
It probably didn’t help that I completely lied about them being poetry-related. Or having anything to do with either romantic comedies or The Three Stooges. I was trying to make this one completely senseless and ended up making it much too hard.
Neither. I shall now seek professional help.
That should be easy since you are the professional help. If I may recommend an alternative though later this month, in honor of National Poetry Month, there will be a more poetic pop quiz.
