Attention Time Wasters and OCD Sufferers

This has been eating too much of my time lately. Hundreds of games where you are given a category, ranging from the Flags of Africa to Samuel L Jackson movies to the lyrics of We Didn't Start the Fire, and you list as many as you can in the given time. Then you see how you did in comparison to everyone else that took the quiz. Best thing ever for working in an office.

There's no way I'm going to remember to come home for Thanksgiving now.

Great, now I'll get fired for sure. 19 out of 19 on the "name the song" quiz.

I got 42 presidents like that, then it took me about three minutes to think of Millard Fillmore to finish the damn thing.

The Bruce Willis movies had me entertained. And I could only name 40 states of the US.

28 countries of Europe.
72 countries of the world.

One of those games that annoys the hell out of you when you see the answers you missed out on. "Ukraine! Of course Ukraine! Motherfucking Ukraine damnit!!!"

Jem? Wasn't she truly, truly outrageous?

42 out of 120. I will now be punished by having the song playing in my head for the next 4 days... and I freakin' hate Billy Joel.

87/195. Thought I could beat your score. Unfortunately I blanked on central african countries and nearly forgot to put in the caribbean countries. Why could I remember Dominica but not Dominican Islands? For shame.

I got to 100 on the countries. Couldn't remember all the different Congos, and had no idea Greenland technically isn't a county and so kept trying to type it over and over again.

The thing is: I could go as easily as 140 5 years ago. And I also completely forgot the Caribbeans.

I cleared 100 and spent some time yelling "Well, how the fuck do you spell Kazakhstan?!" at my screen.

I don't know nearly as many Muppets or Looney Tunes characters as I thought I did.

Oh yeah. Azerbaijan was my doom. In fact, I had trouble translating the French and English names. Sometimes, it's a single letter that makes the difference.

I aced the shit out of the Batman villains and Tom Cruise movies. And the only Simpsons character I couldn't remember is Fat Tony.

ETA: I got every NFL team, except for the Bucs. And I live in Florida!

I got 53 (and can't spell 10 that I was trying, apparently) then in a fit of rage and depression smashed my keyboard several times, went out bought a new one and then played this a dozen times and only got 2 more.

Ahhh... Greenland isn't technically a country... had I read further that knowledge might have saved me a keyboard. That's when I lost it.

hehe I was singing that to myself the entire time, too, Snaieke! Unfortunately, I only really know the first verse and those are all the countries I knew anyways.

But, I guess on the scale of "how ugly of an American are you?" I'd fall about average in my knowledge of other countries.

Nailed the shit out of the NFL coaches, but stumbled on the college nicknames -- there's some schools in the Big East whose mascots I've never even seen.

They're testing the functionality of user-created quizzes. God help us.

Haha, what's sad is I know this stuff... I just couldn't get my brain to work right and kept getting hung up on the spelling of countries like Monico when I meant Morocco and laos (I kept trying Lous ... Lose ... lause ...)

it was sad

You typed in 'africa' and 'asia', didnt you? Admit it!

Only got 5 out of 10 body parts, which is sad. Dont even ask me about famous foursomes.

The one that really pissed me off and almost upset me was getting only 19 out of 63 London tube stations. I clicked away before it gave the answers, as I am going to finish this damn game with some dignity intact. I left the city a while back but its unacceptable to forget all those stations I spent my whole life around!

Got 19 out of 20 Weird Al songs. Not sure if I should be proud of that.

Oh, and this website is The Phantom Zone.

Actually did pretty well on that one, thanks to some timely help from the fiancee on the Sex and the City girls.
