The Man Gauntlet

By John

Well Blackfive all but pulled out a white glove and slapped me across the face with his challenge.

88%. Matt won. I was starting to get cocky (even got the very UN-manly question on the Monet painting), until there was a 10 question barrage where you had to ID the delicious parts of a cow. I think I got two of those, tops.

By the way, some of these questions will have you laughing out loud. The "which one of these is a ninja" and "which one of these is a cougar" had me dying.

Take the Experience Old Spice Challenge.

I got a 56% which is well below average so it's a very good thing that I'm not a man. For many reasons. But I'm proud to report that I got the Marine question right .. whew!

I actually got an 86, and my wife got a 48. I too was bamboozled by the cuts of beef. But a few were lucky guesses paid off I have to admit. I did get the Monet. I sent it to alot of people.

72%
Cuts of meat was my biggest downfall.

While obviously this is for entertainment purposes only, I noticed a decided lack of questions on things that I associate with "experienced men". No questions on firearms, nothing on hard liquor, no cigars.... Come on, you can't tell me knowing the difference between Monet and Van Gogh is more important then identifying a good whiskey.

totally, Brett. Or knowing French, for that matter. Lucky guess on that one.

They had some hits and some misses with the quiz, but overall, I give it a B+. Entertained the hell out of me.

Noonan, I got an 85%, I challenge you to arm wrestling at the conference.

oh I wouldn't dare Rachelle.

Only one NASCAR question, nothing about bow hunting, and no beer questions. Art? Cooking? Come on...

I got an 86%.

"Hail to the king, baby." Which came from which Bruce Campbell (Detroit rock city native) film?

Discussing this in the office, we determined to get an A+ you would need to apply WWJWD principles to it - Any question that The Duke wouldn't be able to answer correctly would be thrown out. ;)

Heh, it got big laughs around the office yesterday. "Which cinnimon roll do you prefer".

Got to agree about some of the questions - if we're seperating men from boys, why all the questions related to video games? But it sure was fun.

I guess I had too much ad-block script-block flash-block turned on in Firefox - the quiz played OK but when it spit out my score the "paper tape" was blank and the score overlay never showed up :( I would guess I got somewhere around 75-85 - didn't miss too many, but like most others, the beef time trial messed me up pretty good. The other guys at work (ex-mil every one) scored from 58 to 91.
