How Smart Are You? - Page 7

**Bamboo** · 04-28-2008, 03:26 PM

Holy crap Ferris busted those out quick. +2 for both questions right.
I actually threw the Boulder one in there because we talked about it in another thread recently, and I think Ferris was in the thread too.

Scoreboard

MagnaCentipede +7

War.mongeR1 +3
Ferris Bueller +3

Acreo Aeneas +2
Ristin +2
DdogG +2

thegreatnardini +1
dave m +1
ScratchMonkey +1
Loraxe +1
CingularDuality +1
Icehawk217 +1

In each row, think of the five-letter answer to the clue on the left, then insert an “R” into the word to make the answer to the clue on the right.

1) green sauce for pasta ______ magician’s word
2) jigsaw puzzle bit ______ puncture
3) first cloned sheep ______ with wry humor
4) jewel heist ______ grouser

So your answer should include 8 words total.

Pesto-Presto
Piece-Pierce
Dolly-Drolly
Caper-Carper

This was on my mensa test about a decade ago. Plus, your math skills lack bamboo, if I got +2 for the last one, my score before this question should have been 3, and after this, 4. I figure I better answer a bunch of these now since my brain is going to be mush for the next few days (with GTA 4 coming out and all).

"Plus, your match skills lack bamboo, if I got +2 for the last one, my score before this question should have been 3, and after this, 4."

Match skills, indeed.

**Ferris Bueller** · 04-28-2008, 03:54 PM

See, my brain is already starting to degrade just thinking about the endless hours of beating hookers to death with a baseball bat. Damn you Rockstar North.

**Bamboo** · 04-28-2008, 04:21 PM

Sorry Ferris, my brain is fried too. Just woke up from a nap when I posted earlier. Still trying to catch up from past few days. Can't stop yawning right now actually.
And I am wishing at the moment I had a PS3 for some GTA loving. And MGS4. And GT Prologue.
And your answer is correct. Another quick +1 for Ferris

Your job is to get from pink to rose by only changing 1 letter in each of the 3 mystery words.(the blank spaces)
And of course each word has to be a real English word.
List all three of the mystery words for a +1

Apparently, some of you have more free time than I do.

By the time I get a answer off, someone has already posted the right one.

**MagnaCentipede** · 04-28-2008, 06:37 PM

That's because Ferris has been wearing the "F5" off of his keyboard.

**Ferris Bueller** · 04-28-2008, 06:53 PM

Hey, I'm bored.

**=DdogG=** · 04-28-2008, 08:38 PM

yeah, I just got to read the forums and 3 questions pass by... I wish there was a way to allow for multiple answers.... penalizing those with a life (no offense Ferris... hehehe) is driving me crazy. I have had the answers to 10+ of these only to be late reading the thread. I am sure many can say the same thing.

Every time I come back and see a missed question, I spend 30 minutes thinking of ways to make multiple answers possible.

I hope I am not a freak and the only one doing that.

**Bamboo** · 04-29-2008, 12:16 AM

Ferris is flying up the scoreboard today. Another +1 for you sir.

Just how random could those letters be?

Another Fact or Crap (true/false)
And explain your answer of course..............

"Jim Carrey is related to Jerry Lewis."

**MagnaCentipede** · 04-29-2008, 12:48 AM

Crap if you mean genetically, Fact if you mean Lewis was a comedic inspiration, since many of Carrey's routines seem to be a hybrid of Jerry Lewis's ostentacious delivery and Matt Frewer's verbal timing and speech patterns.

**=DdogG=** · 04-29-2008, 07:05 PM

that is a fact... according to the French, he is the son of Jerry Lewis.
