Yo, whaddup.
Let's play a little game... But I an't no saw, I've only seen. And I've seen some shit.
Anyways, finding something that I legitimately enjoy doing couldn't have come at a worse time. I just got my exam results back and boy oh boy am I due for a vigorous screaming and only half a scoop of ice cream for dessert. Life is hard indeed. However, one good thing comes alongside that: I finally got my Life Orientation exam back. You know L.O.? That subject that no one takes seriously and is filled with lessons about drugs, depression and penises? Or was that Biology? Anyways nobody took that exam seriously, including me. I couldn't care less about the actual questions that they asked us (actually I could- I could have not answered them at all), the real highlight of that exam was the bonus questions that they put at the end of the paper in order to fill up the other hour of the hour-and-a-half paper. looks like even the teachers didn't take it too seriously. Although I could have spent that entire hour making sure I got 100% (I didn't by the way) I could not help myself from putting all of my effort and knowledge into the questions that weren't even for marks. That's some scholarly dedication right there. So once I laid my hands on the question papers and my answers, I thought "why not share this on my blog". And then I thought, hey, why not play along with me?
So I'm going to put the questions right here so that you can answer them along with me. Leave your best answers in the comments! The real answers will be at the end.

My Answer: Multivitamins
First question and fairly simple, right? Straightforward. I'm not even going to put the answer up for this one. I can, however, think of multiple ways to answer this question differently. Can you?

My answer: What does "est" mean? For estample? FOUR estample?
What the hell is estample anyway. The "est"-iest of examples, of course.

What even? What is the purpose of this puzzle anyway? What is even the purpose of life? Is purpose even a real word? Isn't that an animal? I have no clue, but I was so tempted to say something about the purpose of the Jesus cross. I purposely didn't though.

My answer: Runoff
You know, like the runoff from a drainage pipe? "crooked run" also came to me though, and all I could think about was some chubby crippled kid trying to hobble away from a generic movie monster. The key word there is trying. I'm cruel, aren't I?

Would you believe that this amazing sentence contains ninety two letters, one comma and a single question mark?
1951Please respect copyright.PENANAUG38WtH4pM

Yep, that's the puzzle. Hard to believe isn't it?
My answer: NO. Show me proof. Belief is for the weak. See you in court.

Oh gods, I wrote a whole freakin' paragraph for my answer.
My answer: "He can bat to Dent." It's not a great sentence, but it's my sentence. There are many like it but this one is mine. P.S. "Dent" is their all-star baseball exchange student. Like, "Harvey Dent". That's why he went waaaay outfield in the third quarter, because his rival, Jacobson, was the only one who was able to bat that far. The opposing team planned to bat to Dent in the hopes of causing the team's star an injury. The sentence is from passing conversation from the opposing team found during a stealthy reconnaissance mission.
Never issue a challenge like that to me. I mean Never. Please. I will find a way to make it work, somehow, but I may just end up losing my soul and dignity int he process.

As I was going to St. Ives,1951Please respect copyright.PENANAgWfSHQCLXg
I met a man with seven wives.1951Please respect copyright.PENANAzhDUCAMlVu

Each cat had seven kits.1951Please respect copyright.PENANA64DlkmOs3n
Kits, cats, sacks and wives,1951Please respect copyright.PENANAbpiUgeo8sw
How many were going to St. Ives?
1951Please respect copyright.PENANAQxeWAoB7cg
1951Please respect copyright.PENANAnDkf7X32Uj
Oh gods, here it comes...
My answer: One. Duh. Although he did extend an invitation. However, the reason why the man was travelling with his entire family, including the cats, was because they were on their way to Germany to seek political refuge. Unfortunately, St. Ives offered no such refuge. They have borderline xenophobic foreign policies.
Is there even a place in Germany called St. Ives? The answer is yes. Yes there is. In fact, there's apparently one F****ng everywhere, and they're all stores or restaurants. I feel so bad for those refugees. Also EU laws.

Just... how. How did they expect us to do this one, in an exam hall where the smallest of farts makes heads turn? Trust me, I was that farter.
I did it anyway. I wrote an answer for it anyway. I even drew a little doodle.
My answer: Pfff, easy peasy. This. Is. PUZZLE!!!
Puzzle 15
If Teresa's daughter is my daughter's mother, what am I to Teresa?
a. Grandmother1951Please respect copyright.PENANAo64MkiNDCO
b. Mother1951Please respect copyright.PENANAIPfrWQFiY3
c. Daughter1951Please respect copyright.PENANA9i0etl5pFZ
d. Granddaughter1951Please respect copyright.PENANA820v74EvW3
e. I am Teresa
1951Please respect copyright.PENANA3u6deYUKym
1951Please respect copyright.PENANAOHigy8k2JN
My answer: e. But Teresa is suffering from an identity crisis, which begs the question: Who is Teresa really?
"I DON'T KNOW WHO I AM ANYMORE"
A tear rolled down her daughter's cheek. Watching her mother's Alzheimer's was more than she could bare.
That got too real too fast...
Answers:
Puzzle 1: Multivitamins. I lied.
Puzzle 2: Forrest (Four EST)
Puzzle 3: Crossed purposes or dual purposes.
Puzzle 4: Run down.
Puzzle 5: Step Up.
Puzzle 6: What goes up must come down.
Puzzle 7: Basketballs.
Puzzle 8: Ford. [Four D].
Puzzle 9: Back to the drawing board. 'to the drawing board' is written backwards.
Puzzle 10: Neon lights.
Puzzle 11: This is not really a puzzle, merely a curious and clever piece of text.
Puzzle 12: "That can't be done!" is the answer.
Puzzle 13: One. Only I was going to St. Ives.
Puzzle 14: Now go back and read the THIRD word in each line from the top.
Puzzle 15: c. Daughter. "Teresa's daughter is my daughter's mother" My daughter's mother is actually me (i.e. the person who is asking the puzzle). Therefore: Teresa's daughter is me (i.e. the person who is asking the puzzle is Teresa's daughter). Note: As there are only females available for the answer, the answer cannot be a male.
But I don't think biology works like that, since, as a woman, you can't physically give birth if your partner is also female... Therefore my daughter isn't technically related to anyone.
Well wasn't that fun? I honestly couldn't believe the answer for number 10 though. Get clickbaited.
If my source didn't source the source, should the source be saused by my source's source? Nah I'm just kidding, I figured out that it came from this lovely website: Brainbashers.com
What where your best answers? Tell me in the comments below. Also I think it's time that I have my IQ checked. For... reasons.
Hope you had fun. See you next time.
