Watching the last disc of Animaniacs Vol. 1. I remembered all of the words to Wakko's America Song! I'll be damned if you ask me for a specific state capital, but if you let me sing to it, I'll get it eventually.

However, I totally do not remember the "Guardin' the Garden" Slappy episode, where they pretty much quote right from Genesis and talk of God creating Earth. But...but...Animaniacs taught me to question authority! And to be smarter than everyone else in the room! (Or at least be a smarter ass.)

You paid attention during 91% of high school!

85-100% You must be an autodidact, because American high schools don't get scores that high! Good show, old chap!

Do you deserve your high school diploma?

EDIT: Is there a Wheel of Morality generator anywhere on the internets? I think I'd like one of those some days.

I know the Yakko country song. I sucked at the states.

Except... "Elvis used to hang out there a lot, you know..."

It's an odd public high school that deals with points of Catholic theology.

Seriously. I learned that later in life, from reading about MRAs on feminist blogs. My parents are occasional protestants, and I've always dug the Quakers, meself.

Memphis, Tennessee.

I'm shit at the country song, so I applaud you for that, especially since I used to have the CD, and therefore had plenty of time to memorize it.

You know, what I find interesting about that quiz was that *most* of the questions on it, I never learned a damn thing about in HS. Darwin? Verboten. World Religions? Nope, don't teach that stuff... Art? We only had to take one credit of that in 10th grade. Dangling modifiers? English class was for READING, not grammar! Once again, my belief that despite graduating in the top 5% of my HS class, I was woefully unprepared for college has been validated. On account of how my HS SUCKED ASS.

When we were in 5th grade, for music class, we *all* had to learn the song "50 Nifty" and memorize it for Chorus. End result is that I can sing all of the states in alphabetical order. But I can't sing Wakko's America Song because the two songs conflict and "50 Nifty" - having several years head start in my brain - always takes over part way through
