McFat III: Revenge Of The McFat

To be honest, I agree with Wendy and Jerry... this one is tough. But I'll offer my answers, for what they're worth:

1) What, in your opinion, was the best finale to a television series? I know these things are frequently difficult to narrow down, so if you cannot choose one, narrow it down to a reasonable number, perhaps three.

My favorite series finale was the last episode of Cheers. I liked the fact that they didn't "resolve" things, didn't have each of the main characters leave for a different location because that part of their lives was over. The only thing that was really resolved was that Sam finally realized that he really was, totally and finally, over Diane. I was glad for that, and I was glad that he and the rest of the main characters all had a moment at the end to realize how grateful they each were for their lives and for each other. Other than that, it was pretty much life as usual for the whole gang. Except, of course, for Frasier... a spin-off I never watched. Not even once.

2) You wake up to get the morning paper when you notice something is wrong. The sky is green and the grass is blue. Birds are swimming and fish are flying. Explain.

No.

3) How did you lose your first tooth?

I don't remember. I honestly don't. I can't remember the circumstances of a single tooth that I lost. I can remember that the Tooth Fairy brought me money whenever I lost a tooth, but I can't remember how much. I can't remember a single detail.

The only marginally interesting thing I can say about my dental history is that I was born without the "buds" (if that's the word) for wisdom teeth. I never got a single one. My dental x-rays reveal me to be a freak of nature. Coincidentally, my jawbone is shown by x-ray to be made of adamantium.

4) What’s the strangest thing you or someone you know has made out of snow?

I don't remember. I honestly don't. I can't remember the circumstances of a single thing I ever made out of snow. I can remember that the Snow Fairy brought me money whenever I made something out of snow, but I can't remember how much. I can't remember a single detail.

5) What’s the best superhero lair and why? Feel free to provide examples.

Well, I've always thought that Green Lantern was a lair. I've never believed anything he's ever said. Every time he opens his mouth I say "Lair, Lair, Pants On Fire!"

You absolutely got a right answer for #2. Who says this test was hard? I would have also accepted rkeq.

What's mad funny is how I labored over every other test, and this one I sort of threw out 5 questions rather quickly, and the test I spent the LEAST time thinking about gives people the MOST trouble. Lesson in that? Maybe...
