While checking mail today, I see an ad asking me to take a quick art appreciation test. The test flashes pics of famous works of art and asks simple questions, such as "which has a better use of color?", "which is prettier?" and so on. I get through it expecting an average score, and **this** comes up. :o I think it may just be an ad for an Art for Dummies book (the next link led to an order form for it), but I found it amusing. I'll try to find the link again and post it so others can try. Guess I need more practice. ;) SnowS

I'm sure you're right about it being an ad. My results page was identical to yours. Or maybe we're both just art imbeciles...:D

Which is prettier? in other words, a lot of mostly subjective questions. And I suspect that everyone finishes in 'naysay category'..sorta like the Scientologist tests of your 'energy field' ..noone has ever passed one..

Same result here - and I'm someone who was doing art for twenty years both creatively and commercially! Putzes (new category for them)! ;0)

And, obviously, they are also lying since every result is "Imbecile", one cannot possibly be the "first test-taker out of thousands" to achieve this, nay? Also note that, except for the first and last categories, the rest are nice numbers rounded to nearest 10s.

LOL, yeah I just found out it is an ad after all. Hopefully Art for Dummies has a section devoted to 3D artists who think postwork is cheating and that you're not a real artist unless you build your own human figure too. >;) SnowS

Snow, Maybe, just maybe, you really are an imbecile. (Note to the cheap seats... There's about as much chance of that as there is of Wolf359 swishing through Central Park in only a pink thong, singing "I'm Just A Girl Who Can't Say No".) Remember, if someone said it on t'internet, it must be true.

Ya know, that image in my head just ruined my day! ;)

"Ya know, that image in my head just ruined my day! ;)" Oh, I dunno. I think I'd pay money to see that. :D

well...I stand corrected (actually, I'm sitting, but..;) maybe Naysay is an idiot savant..;) I'm not the brightest bulb around here either..;)

Er, if'n youse would continue wif dat test, all nice n quiet-like, youse'd find this herr page: http://www.goneglobal35.com/whyyourartiq.html

Just try answering all the answers differently. You're an imbecile, no matter what answers you pick. (Most real art critics tend to be imbeciles, anyway, in my humble opinion...)

"Most real art critics tend to be imbeciles, anyway, in my humble opinion...)" LOL, now that I'll agree with. ;) SnowS

Insulting someone isn't a great form of 'advertisement'.

Ad: "You're such an idiot! Buy these shoes and you'll be smarter!"

Yah, that works all the time - not...

That's odd. It worked perfectly for me - maybe they fixed it. Try again and see what you get. ;)

Haha, that'd better be a good editing job EnglishBob. ;) SnowS

Well i'm still an Imbecile.........maybe they are right LOL!
