Question 1 of 10
1. My best friend Philippe's age is a funny number. In English, it is the smallest nine letter number. It's the 7th prime number, and also can be written as the sum of the first four primes. It and 41 can yield primes in the polynomial. In Italian culture, the age is unlucky. What age is he? Hint


Question 2 of 10
2. I live in a really cool country! My country was formerly British-owned, but is now a dominion. We have mostly boreal forests in our landscape, and coniferous trees prevail over deciduous at a rate of 71% to 29%. We also exported 3.45 billion dollars worth of material to other countries according to a 2004 census! Where do I live? Hint


Question 3 of 10
3. My favorite sport is soccer. Let's see if you can guess the team I root for! In 2006, they played in the F.A. Premier League, and were managed by a Portuguese, by way of Russian, tycoon. They boasted the fifth highest average attendance for an English soccer club. They loaned out my favorite player, an Argentina striker, to Internazionale until August of 2008. Hint


Question 4 of 10
4. I follow a popular online webcomic that is famous for boasting a writer with a distinct style which interjects verbose, baroque phrasings into otherwise conversational dialogue and monologue. It follows two video game enthusiasts, one being a little on the crazy side, the other more stern. Their first comic was published on November 18th, 1998, and they have since become notorious for their frequent ribbings of popular culture, John Romero and the use of the word "wang" that is almost hallowed like. Hint


Question 5 of 10
5. I like to code, both as a hobby and as part of my job description. Let's see if, based on the following information, you can guess which language I'm most commonly found using.

The language is object-oriented, and was developed by Sun Microsystems. Its original codename was "Oak" and it has seen 5 previous versions, with two more due out in 2006 and 2008 respectively. It is able to "jump" the OS barrier, and runs a compiler under the GNU license. What language do I use?
Hint


Question 6 of 10
6. I take part in two martial arts, let's see if you can guess one of them based on the description.

Your uniform is a gi (Japanese; literally, uniform). The principle throw newcomers to the art learn is Ippon Seoi Nage (Japanese; literally one-armed shoulder carry) and it was invented (quite obviously) in Japan in 1882. When properly applied, chokes like a Rear Naked Choke and Gi-Choke can knock a person unconscious in less then 3 seconds. What martial art am I practicing?
Hint


Question 7 of 10
7. Let's see if you can guess my favorite video game character. He is one of the principal characters, and, alternatively, one of the principal antagonists in an established stealth series. He used to work under a mad Russian general, but now has established his own reign of terror. He may have a simple and complex name, including the name of a leopard, and his preferred weapon. Who is he? Hint


Question 8 of 10
8. Guess my favorite movie! The movie tells the tale of two criminals attempts "to redeem themselves". Throughout the movie, they frequently state, when asked why they are someplace, or what they are there for, that they "are on a mission from God". The movie originates from a "Saturday Night Live" segment. What movie is it? Hint


Question 9 of 10
9. Guess my favorite food/drink! It is a mechanical mixture of sugars and solid thickenings, with dairy products and flavoring added after it was been semi-frozen. There are many versions of it including New York, Japanese Mint and Roman. What is it? Hint


Question 10 of 10
10. Final question on my favorite band/soloist! They are a Japanese pop/alternative group that sometimes dabble in metal. Their singer is known for his distinct "anime" style hair. They performed some songs on the soundtrack of "Final Fantasy VII: Dierge of Cerberus" and "Metal gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty". No one knows his true date of birth or real name! Before joining the band, the lead singer previously mentioned was also lead singer in "Malice Miser", another group. Who are they? Hint

Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. My best friend Philippe's age is a funny number. In English, it is the smallest nine letter number. It's the 7th prime number, and also can be written as the sum of the first four primes. It and 41 can yield primes in the polynomial. In Italian culture, the age is unlucky. What age is he?

Answer: 17

At age 17, you can drive a car, watch R rated movies and play M rated games, as well as donate blood and join the military! So many interesting things to accomplish while you're 17!
2. I live in a really cool country! My country was formerly British-owned, but is now a dominion. We have mostly boreal forests in our landscape, and coniferous trees prevail over deciduous at a rate of 71% to 29%. We also exported 3.45 billion dollars worth of material to other countries according to a 2004 census! Where do I live?

Answer: Canada

In Canada, the second largest country geographically in the world, it is very multicultural. Big cities like Winnipeg, Montreal and Toronto have ethnic sub-divisions, and smaller (but still quite large!) cities like St. John's and Halifax do their part for the economy and cultural traditions with fixtures like the seal hunt and oil drilling.
3. My favorite sport is soccer. Let's see if you can guess the team I root for! In 2006, they played in the F.A. Premier League, and were managed by a Portuguese, by way of Russian, tycoon. They boasted the fifth highest average attendance for an English soccer club. They loaned out my favorite player, an Argentina striker, to Internazionale until August of 2008.

Answer: Chelsea F.C.

The player they loaned out was Hernan Crespo, a player known for his accuracy. They are sometimes called "The Pensioners" or "The Blues" in contrast to their rivals Liverpool, "The Reds". Their first captain, William "Fatty" Folukes was one of the heaviest players ever, and was rumored to weigh over 20 stone, or 280 pounds!
4. I follow a popular online webcomic that is famous for boasting a writer with a distinct style which interjects verbose, baroque phrasings into otherwise conversational dialogue and monologue. It follows two video game enthusiasts, one being a little on the crazy side, the other more stern. Their first comic was published on November 18th, 1998, and they have since become notorious for their frequent ribbings of popular culture, John Romero and the use of the word "wang" that is almost hallowed like.

Answer: Penny Arcade

Good ol' Tycho and Gabe. The Tycho Brahe character was named after an astronomer named Tycho Brahe who lived from 1546-1601. He was originally not meant to represent the writer, Jerry Hollkins, so their personalities differ quite a bit. Penny Arcade also runs a gaming convention called PAX (Penny Arcade Expo) and a children's charity called Child's Play.
5. I like to code, both as a hobby and as part of my job description. Let's see if, based on the following information, you can guess which language I'm most commonly found using. The language is object-oriented, and was developed by Sun Microsystems. Its original codename was "Oak" and it has seen 5 previous versions, with two more due out in 2006 and 2008 respectively. It is able to "jump" the OS barrier, and runs a compiler under the GNU license. What language do I use?

Answer: Java

The current version is named "Tiger", with "Mustang" and "Dolphin" due out in 2006 and 2008. On November 13th 2006, Java released parts of their Source under GNU Open Source license. Sun Microsystems also made two of those other languages on the multiple choice, C and C++.
6. I take part in two martial arts, let's see if you can guess one of them based on the description. Your uniform is a gi (Japanese; literally, uniform). The principle throw newcomers to the art learn is Ippon Seoi Nage (Japanese; literally one-armed shoulder carry) and it was invented (quite obviously) in Japan in 1882. When properly applied, chokes like a Rear Naked Choke and Gi-Choke can knock a person unconscious in less then 3 seconds. What martial art am I practicing?

Answer: Judo

Sweeps in Judo generally have the suffix -gari, while -goshi are usually hip throws. Belts go from Full White to Full Black, and can go up by halves, depending on age. You need to 13 or older to use a Strangulation in competition, and 16 or older to use an arm bar.

Despite how dangerous it sounds, only two people have died from judo since it started in 1882. The Standing Phase is known as Tachi-Waza, and the Ground Phase as Newaza.
7. Let's see if you can guess my favorite video game character. He is one of the principal characters, and, alternatively, one of the principal antagonists in an established stealth series. He used to work under a mad Russian general, but now has established his own reign of terror. He may have a simple and complex name, including the name of a leopard, and his preferred weapon. Who is he?

Answer: Ocelot

Ocelot, as he is known in "Metal Gear Solid 3", or Revolver Ocelot, in many other instances of the series, was modeled after Spaghetti Western star Lee Van Cleef. He is known for his unorthodox gun-slinging style that borders on the supernatural, allowing him to juggle 3 SAA revolvers simultaneously, as well as spinning two SAAs in either hand, and also preforming impossible bank shots.

He once worked under Russian madman general Volgin.
8. Guess my favorite movie! The movie tells the tale of two criminals attempts "to redeem themselves". Throughout the movie, they frequently state, when asked why they are someplace, or what they are there for, that they "are on a mission from God". The movie originates from a "Saturday Night Live" segment. What movie is it?

Answer: The Blues Brothers

The film is so popular, many of its lines have descended into popular culture. The concept of "buddy cop" films and the "nitwit sidekick, smart, logical overseer" film types may well have been inspired by the team of Elwood and "Joliet" Jake. It was released on June 20th, 1980.
9. Guess my favorite food/drink! It is a mechanical mixture of sugars and solid thickenings, with dairy products and flavoring added after it was been semi-frozen. There are many versions of it including New York, Japanese Mint and Roman. What is it?

Answer: Cheesecake

Cheesecake is not a "cake" per say, but rather a sweet, thick pudding. It has also been classified as a "pie". Of many cake types, cheesecake is one of the hardest to prepare, and gourmet cakes can take up to 10 hours to be made.
10. Final question on my favorite band/soloist! They are a Japanese pop/alternative group that sometimes dabble in metal. Their singer is known for his distinct "anime" style hair. They performed some songs on the soundtrack of "Final Fantasy VII: Dierge of Cerberus" and "Metal gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty". No one knows his true date of birth or real name! Before joining the band, the lead singer previously mentioned was also lead singer in "Malice Miser", another group. Who are they?

Answer: Gackt

I purposely made that question a little harder. ;) It is true, no one knows Gackt's real name, or date of birth, and he claims to have a sixth sense. Although labeled as pop/metal/alternative, his songs sometimes reach as far as romantic ballad, and (ala "Chamillionare") he is known to be able to change the tempo of his songs greatly within the first few minutes.

Thanks for suffering through my narcissist quiz! It covered a broad range, so I hope I at least raised your I.Q. and didn't waste your time! Compliments/Corrections VERY welcome!
