You Might Know…

Found this quiz called You Don’t Know Africa for identifying the countries of Africa. The names appearing as you hover over them felt a little like cheating, but very much needed for a few. If that doesn’t float your boat, then try doing Chicago neighborhoods. I did just as bad as I did on the Africa countries (fuck you, Brighton Park). You can even do the Indigenous Peoples and languages of Alaska, Nora. Maybe I would have done better at these if I regularly practiced like Joan does on the geography section of Sporcle.

Spoken Like A True Asshole

Lifehacker put up an interesting article called 10 Surprisingly Inspirational Quotes from Evil People. It is a little atypical type of post from that site; it seemed like a better fit as a list on Cracked.com alongside posts like “5 Creepy Urban Legends That Happen To Be True” or “8 Racist Costumes People Apparently Still Wear“.  But while it was a good read, it did contain a link to a hilarious article on the Atlantic website called “Who Said It, Adolf Hitler or Taylor Swift?” I guess some Pinterest user, who also goes by PoopCutie on Tumblr and Twitter, put up a quotes from Hitler, Osama Bin Laden, Joseph Stalin over a pictures of Taylor Swift and attributed them to her. As pinterest will do, the images got repinned a bunch of times, with many probably not realizing the joke.  So the Atlantic made a game out of it.  See how you do.
