Hi i am a tom boy i dont know why i am writing this but hello. did you know that there is proff for creation just go to- anwers in genesis- and find answers
How about the unattended suitcase on the far street corner. That thing would be gone in 60 Seconds!
Wow, this quiz is waaaaay too long and has very little payoff. The "score" is explained in just a couple of sentences! Waste of time.
Additional faux pas: J-walking Not parenting kids hitting each other in strollers Guy (sort of looks like he is) ogling girl on subway. Guy looking at cell phone, not paying attention. I would say bitchy-looking girl on bus, but that is pretty typical of NYC.
Faux pas - guy crossing intersection diagonally pushing cart, tourist standing on the corner pointing / blocking pedestrians, playing music on the subway, guy on subway with ass showing, mothers blocking sidewalk with double-wides.
More errors: 4) Guy crossing street with out-of-control guitar case about to spear little girl and dad 5) Woman sticking out tongue on bus---does she want to lose it? 6) Suitcase left on corner 7) No one in picture carrying an umbrella. 8) Kid on skate board--what is this Southern California? 9) Guy counting money by bus---you don't count money out in the middle of sidewalk---huddle in a doorway instead
Other things wrong in the quiz picture: 1) Woman with words on her butt---she obviously shops in suburban mall. What's next, brand name? 2) Woman in pink obviously lost (and blonde) on the sidewalk---she is walking downtown on the uptown side (as is the stupid dogwalker and the bozo from Long Island in the shades). 3) Dork with stinky food texting as he is about to run over the woman waiting for bus and get attacked by dog---what is he doing---waiting to eat it on the PATH?
I subscribe and will take quiz in print; could not access online.
RE: my previous post. OK- I guess it's fixed. Just took it again today with the same answers (as far as I remember)...and got a 117 instead of a 14. It must have been 100 points off before.
Touche, Mike Fischer. How about the luggage standing unattended at the streetcorner?
Per your request, more faux pas on page 15 of the print quiz: - Dude walking down street consumed by mobile device, oblivious to all else. I do this constantly, but that doesn't make it less of an offense. - Shirtless dude. No one wants shirtless dude outside of Coney Island (unless he's hot, which he never is). - Words on ass. One of the best reasons to live in New York is that people have good taste. That is, people who don't have words on their asses.
It must be broken because that was f-ing ridiculous.
Something Is wrong with this quiz...seriously. There is no way that my scoring a 14 was justified. I've always lived here....and love it here. I'm not kidding- Quiz is BROKEN! (I'm using Safari- maybe it's not compatible with my browser.
Are you kidding me? Rediculous. Not worth the time, we are here, and we know why
do i really need a 7 page quiz to let me know what i already do? Any real NYker wouldnt bother
I could make a more cogent comment after taking this quiz!
