I think you must have missed the introduction where it said to pour some
contact cement into a plastic bag and inhale deeply six to eight times
first.

I got all the way to question #5, where the "answer" bore no 
relationship whatsoever to the question, and the automatic 
bullshit overflow squelch cutout kicked in. It got much much 
(much) worse from there.

I'll give it a 1.2. Hard to dance to, and pathologically 
reality deficient - like the average wedding reception, 
resume, fishing trip or prom date report - or tax return (you 
know who you are). The positive score only reflects my 
grudging admiration of the apparent grasp on the part of the 
author, of an understanding of how to present nothing 
demonstrably coherent to the public as an informative Q&A. I 
have to admit to being somewhat impressed and utterly 
mystified as to how that's done, but then I'm similarly 
mystified on a tediously regular basis just by trying to pay 
attention, day by day, so what do I know?

By my clock, there are infinitely more accurately informative, 
interesting, or even vacuously entertaining, ways to waste time.
