Question 8 of 10

Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Leading off, a painting or sculpture that is so controversial that it is forbidden or considered off-limits might be considered... (Remember, use only the letters B, O, R, A, and T.)

Answer: taboo art

Artists are frequently challenging social boundaries. Several cartoons, songs, paintings, or other works of art--many of whose names can't even be printed on this site--are generally considered to be socially inappropriate. At times this is because they probably are; then, sometimes the point of the artist is that the social norms need to be challenged.

As long as there is artistic expression, there will be art that is considered taboo.

2. "Where did you and Daddy meet?" is an innocent question that a youngster might pose to her mother. However, Mom might be embarrassed to answer, if she and her husband had met in a place designated for the sale and consumption of alcohol. "Well, sweetie, the truth is that your father and I met... (Remember, use only the letters B, O, R, A, and T.)

Answer: at a bar

3. Music concerts are an exciting and highly enjoyable method of artistic expression. Let's suppose that I went to a concert that featured the heavy metal band that was famous for singing "Round and Round" alongside the band that was famous for singing "Rosanna" and "Hold the Line." Now, unfortunately, they'd be playing at the same time, so I'd have to make a choice. What do you think, should I choose... (Remember, use only the letters B, O, R, A, and T.)

Answer: ratt or toto

Toto was a very popular band, touring from their debut in 1977 through 2008, and selling over 30 million records. Ratt has sold far less--around the order of 8 million records--but they're still going, and have released their most recent album, "Infestation," in April 2010.

4. Another aspect of our society that is worth exploring has to do with our increasingly litigious tendencies. Let's assume that one fellow was bit by another fellow's pet rodent, and the first fellow decided to sue. He would invoke a... (Remember, use only the letters B, O, R, A, and T.)

Answer: rat tort

McDonald's was successfully sued in 2007 for being responsible for a rat bite in one of its locations in China, to the tune of $290. (Apparantly being bitten by a rat is worth considerably less than spilling coffee on oneself, in the world of lawsuits.)

5. If I'm a typical American, then after a tiring lawsuit, I will want to come home and watch some TV. If I flip on the television, and I have a choice between watching a show that features Ms. Streisand, or a show in memoriam of the great entertainer Mr. Hope, then I would be choosing either... (Remember, use only the letters B, O, R, A, and T.)

Answer: barbra or bob

"Barbra" is the unusual correct spelling of Ms. Streisand's name, in case you were curious about the number of letters. I had to look it up myself.

6. Some people aren't fond of the social hustle and bustle. If a man eschewed society, joined a monastery, and became the man in charge (of the monastery), then his orchard or grove of trees might be called an... (Remember, use only the letters B, O, R, A, and T.)

Answer: abbot arbor

Answer: boar tattoo

If you're interested, "Blog Of Swine" has photos of the coolest boar tattoos I've ever seen. Really.

(Remember, use only the letters B, O, R, A, and T.)

Answer: rob a robot

I searched, but I couldn't find a single documented instance of a person robbing a robot. After computer troubles, though, I do sometimes think that it would be a nice way to turn the tables.
