Well, pulled it from a friend who pulled it from a Terry Pratchett book.

FYI the ONLY reason I knew that one is because we just covered it in chemistry. I knew that air was mostly nitrogen and oxygen but I had no idea what proportions.

That's the only one I missed, too.  I had a gut feeling I was giving the wrong answer, but I couldn't access that part of my brain that would lend support.

I knew that one, but that question was the one most people got wrong, regardless of education level.

I screwed up on the sunscreen question.  I have no idea how...which is why I'm blaming insomnia.

Yea, that was the one question I second-guessed myself a bit on, but got it right in the end. It's a bit surprising how disproportionately low the scores are on that question, but I guess understandable, since I wasn't completely sure about the proportions, and chances are, not many people weren't recently in science classes.

I aced it!

Likewise.

Even 2-3 wrong could seem reasonable, but so much of it seems like fairly basic knowledge, and the antibiotics seemed horribly obvious. I don't know. Interesting I suppose. I know I'm smart, but I also know I'm not SMARTEST GUY EVER, but then I look around or interact with other people...and it can be a bit disheartening.
There's no sun shine coming through her ass, if you are sure of your penis.

Paranoia is a disease unto itself, and may I add, the person standing next to you, may not be who they appear to be, so take precaution.

If there is no order in your sexual life it may be difficult to stay with a whole skin.

Not definitive yet, but it looks like I'm looking good for the University course.

They were in contact with me today to say one of my referees had not gotten back to them yet, and I don't think they'd go to the trouble of writing an email if they were not at least mildly interested.

Thanks.  There is some kind of technical issue preventing my second referee sending his opinion of me, but since I'm in contact with an actual person at the department, it should be sorted out.  Got five days to get it all done, so it should be OK.

Trying to convince a former colleague I worked with in Switzerland not to come here.

It would be going better if my head were not pounding from dehydration.

Plant is on fire and sinking into the swamp.  We don't even have a swamp.  Fired another drunk-ass employee.  Boss has locked himself in his office and won't come out.  I have memorized three Russian phrases loaded with obscenity, and I scream them into my phone when anyone calls me.

This is truly the best of all possible worlds.
