- starvingarvin, on 08/03/2008, -15/+175funny, but too easy.
- Imagine3, on 08/03/2008, -23/+274This is stupid. On the screen where it says to click the "blue rectangle" I did, and it sent me back to the beginning. Obviously, they don't understand that all of them are rectangles and that a Square is a specific type of rectangle. They need to go back to school.
- Rheic, on 08/03/2008, -28/+82You didn't have the common sense to guess what the test-maker meant, therefore you failed.
- ayeroxor, on 08/03/2008, -13/+46Not all of us are as good at deciphering the difference between what stupid people say and what stupid people mean. Clearly you just have special insight.
- zephyr42, on 08/03/2008, -9/+26Yeah, I was frustrated by that as well... so basically the Idiot test is actually not to test to see if you are an idiot... but to dumb you down to the idiot point.
- versionist, on 08/03/2008, -20/+122You must be a blast at parties.
- numb, on 08/03/2008, -3/+28Yeah, people that understand junior high school level geometry are total nerds.
- planksconstant, on 08/03/2008, -4/+18ok, then what would you call the shape with parallel sides of equal length and made up of all right angles?
cause i'd call that a rectangle. - Vich, on 08/03/2008, -4/+7It also doesn't state the order of the buttons that must be pressed!
The size of the buttons is relative, I have a massive monitor they all looked big. - BoonTobias, on 08/03/2008, -25/+4how bout i punch you square in the face, ***** *****
- spudhead, on 08/04/2008, -2/+31It would have been funnier had you offered to punch him rectangle in the face.
- cliffzdude, on 08/04/2008, -3/+16"I have a massive monitor they all looked big"
That's what she said... Ok, I'll just let myself out now. - motox16, on 08/04/2008, -11/+1Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought that a rectangle was a type of square, and that all squares are rectangles but rectangles aren't squares. Could be wrong but I'm to lazy to find a geometry book right now.
- Nestor10, on 08/04/2008, -5/+8Yep, you're wrong.
- mentor, on 08/04/2008, -3/+3It's an idiot test, not a "conform to the incorrect perception of reality of the author" test.
- mentor, on 08/04/2008, -2/+5Arg, and the same issue with ovals and circles too.
- smokeydbear, on 08/04/2008, -3/+2The idiot test. This is a test to establish whether the creator of the test is an idiot for not knowing what a rectangle isn't.
- Coffeedemon, on 08/04/2008, -1/+3Is this the place where everyone who spent too long in school (or just wants to sound smart) comes to gripe about how they "didn't get the answer wrong ... the test writer got the question wrong"?
- Brooks007, on 08/04/2008, -1/+2You are truly an idiot if you don’t know the difference between a rectangle and a square.

–noun 1. a rectangle having all four sides of equal length.- Nicoon, on 08/03/2008, -2/+109Which is exactly what xang just stated.
Squares are rectangles, but rectangles are not squares. - jmahnn, on 08/04/2008, -1/+5More to the point,
Urrbin you're a ***** idiot

- Mononuclear, on 08/03/2008, -6/+180Yeah the person who made the site is an idiot. I supposedly failed for clicking a square (the 2nd time when it asks you to press a rectangle twice). They obviously don't know a square is a rectangle...
- KMehthas, on 08/03/2008, -1/+27I think that's the point. If you decide the person that made the test is an idiot, then you'd be an idiot to take the test.
- citydragon, on 08/03/2008, -19/+35If you can't understand the intention of the author in the use of the words square and rectangle, then you must be an idiot. Well educated maybe, but still an idiot
- Mooinakan, on 08/03/2008, -24/+2There is no such thing as a well educated idiot.
- hugolp, on 08/03/2008, -0/+13Indeed there is.
- FFXIfrohike, on 08/04/2008, -3/+4I disagree. "Understanding the intention" here can just as easily be a case of not understanding geometry, period. Well-educated idiot? Or someone who actually calls a question on it's ***** premise? Hmmm...
- MrChunks, on 08/03/2008, -75/+1No, it's full of squares and one rectangle.

- Mononuclear, on 08/03/2008, -2/+24Like he said a square IS a rectangle. Every square is a rectangle but not all rectangles are squares. A rectangle is just a figure with 4 sides and 4 right angles. A square has 4 sides and 4 right angles too.
- skin, on 08/03/2008, -0/+17A rectangle is any quadrilateral with all 90 degree angles. Therefore all squares are also rectangles, but not every rectangle is a square.
- MrChunks, on 08/03/2008, -4/+23@MrChunks:

- mohsenxp, on 08/03/2008, -38/+30Yes but stop being a smartass and just do the quiz. Only an idiot will have such a hard time over the issue of a rectangle/square!
Normal people can make that observation but STILL click on the rectangle that isn't a square.
You sir are just an idiot.- noisymime, on 08/04/2008, -0/+4That's only because idiocy is the new normal.

- sneezy555, on 08/03/2008, -18/+7You don't have to be a smartass, just click on the shape that looks like a rectangle, we all know you have a basic understanding of geometry.

ummm, there is a rectangle there. Look more closely....- CammleMammle, on 08/03/2008, -2/+13Umm, there are MULTIPLE rectangles there. Look more closely....
- teamgwho, on 08/03/2008, -4/+5When asked to select one item from many, and one is unique, how much of a tard do you have to be to say "well the dictionary says they're all rectangles so I guess I can pick them all!" The intent was obvious.
- boerema, on 08/04/2008, -0/+1Okay, this is called irony. A game that's only point is to tell people they are idiots makes the writer look like an idiot.
- ZenMojo, on 08/03/2008, -1/+39Sometimes being brilliant means knowing when you're trying too hard.
- 120decibel, on 08/03/2008, -19/+14...9 rectangles 8 of them are squares
...click on the rectangle
...hm which one should I click on...
sometimes it takes just s bit of intelligence interpret the question the right way...- boerema, on 08/04/2008, -0/+1sometimes it takes a bit of a sense of humor to read Digg comments.
- paidhima, on 08/03/2008, -14/+9While it may not be the intention of the test, I think it's fairly humorous that you're pointing that out. "haha, squares are rectangles you idiot!!" But who's the idiot: the one that plays the smartass and chooses the wrong answer out of a feeling of intellectual superiority, or the one who looks at it, says "hm, these are all rectangles, but only one is *only* a rectangle" and chooses correctly? That wasn't a geometry question; it was a logic question.
- toastjam, on 08/03/2008, -1/+4the thing is, we've all taken supposed "idiot" tests where you have to take an extremely literal interpretation of the questions to have a chance of passing...
usually the point of the questions is that you fail if you do assume what the authors intention was instead of answering literally
besides, it's a silly thing to get wrong - Jonesyxxiv, on 08/03/2008, -0/+8Well they are not *only* rectangles, they are also parallelograms.
- toastjam, on 08/03/2008, -1/+4the thing is, we've all taken supposed "idiot" tests where you have to take an extremely literal interpretation of the questions to have a chance of passing...
- teamgwho, on 08/03/2008, -15/+8yes all square are rectangles. not all rectangles are squares. When faced with 10 items all equally sided (making them square/rectangle) and 1 item which has a pair of even sides (making it only a rectangle) and you're asked to pick the rectangle, you're a dumb ass if you whine... "but... but... but... they're all rectangles!!!" Obviously one was different from all the others, that was the one to pick.
Stop over thinking it and trying to show off that you're got a degree from MIT.
Freaking dictionary rules-lawyers....- aeiou, on 08/04/2008, -0/+3Who said anything about MIT? I learned that in 9th grade, if not before.
- ndanie3, on 08/03/2008, -1/+13i saw all the rectangles clicked one and then was called an idiot because i clicked a rectangle with equal sides... i stopped taking the test there. It's not overthinking a problem to realize there is more than one correct answer. Sometimes you have to overthink a problem though and realize an idiot made the test and answer as an idiot would.
- se1zure, on 08/04/2008, -5/+1or perhaps when he said click the rectangle he meant click the reactangle that is only a rectangle. For example, if I said, pick the cupholder and had a picture of a cup holder and a car next to each other, of course the car has cup holders and transitively is a cup holder, but common sense comes into play. The author of the test clearly meant pick the shape that is only a rectangle (and not a square.)
- Yamoth, on 08/04/2008, -2/+3Not all cars have cup holders.
- jerrycurley, on 08/04/2008, -3/+0You are right...it is not necessarily being an idioot. It is being a pompous prick.
And if you really didn't know that you were supposd to pick the one non square, then you may be book smart (maybe not, since that it not exactly an upper level piece of knowledge) but you are WOEFULLY prepared for the real world. Anyone with even an ounce of street smarts would know what that question was asking. You obviously lack that very necessary skill to succeed in life. - Shaflugi, on 08/04/2008, -1/+2What the hell? What do street smarts have ANYTHING to do with ***** Geometry?
- TheKitchenSinkX, on 08/04/2008, -2/+10You are correct.
Also, to all those who are like "THE CHOICE IS OBVIOUS IT'S THE ONE THAT'S NOT A SQUARE DUMBASS," well I might like to add that NO ***** SHERLOCK.
*Everyone* knows that. *Everyone* knows the answer they were looking for. *Not* everyone feels the need to submit to idiocy.
The test's correct choice is obvious to everyone. Reality's correct choice is apparently not.- Kalessian, on 08/04/2008, -0/+3It's almost like the same reason there are editors. Sure authors could make grammatical errors, and sure everyone would still understand what they meant, but there's a certain respect lost for an author who isn't informed enough to write by the rules.
The only problem here is that the test-maker obviously doesn't know that squares are also rectangles. No one with that knowledge would even think of wording a question that way. And he's not throwing it in there to mindf*ck everyone and we all know it, so stop making excuses for him.
I saw this test on addictinggames a few weeks back. I noticed the error in the rectangle question and quickly looked at the 30 pages of comments. Only one person mentioned that squares are also rectangles, and he got *flamed* for it. A few others have gotten flamed for it since then. Check for yourself: http://www.addictinggames.com/theidiottest.html
I think the majority of people really don't know that squares are also rectangles. When seen from an Americans-are-morons kind of view this minor mistake becomes very frustrating.
I guess the question becomes: Who is dumber, the average youtuber or the average addictinggamer? - jerrycurley, on 08/04/2008, -1/+3So..you knew you were going to be wrong, but you picked it anyway to prove a point on a silly ***** INTERNET game?
Basically your thought process was "I'l; show them! I'll pick a square, which is technically a rectangle! Then I will bitch about then being wrong! THAT will make me seem superior!"
Now tell me...doesn't that seem pathetic even to YOU now? - Chross, on 08/12/2008, -0/+0Picking the "wrong" one invalidated the test and the user could move on. Its not like anyone (without prior knowledge of the game) could KNOW that picking a square would be wrong. Not everyone can be mind readers. Its like schrodinger's cat. You have to inspect the answer to find out if its a dead cat or not (it was). Plus, since its an idiot test, you would think that the person who presented the test would not be an idiot as only a non-idiot could accurately judge whether one is an idiot, or at the very least... not make any mistakes so that years later he doesn't get flamed on a digg thread. Judge all of your actions by what the digg community will say....
- Kalessian, on 08/04/2008, -0/+3It's almost like the same reason there are editors. Sure authors could make grammatical errors, and sure everyone would still understand what they meant, but there's a certain respect lost for an author who isn't informed enough to write by the rules.
- f54280, on 08/04/2008, -1/+3No, no, this man is a genius! I mean, he is the one that devised that idiot test that declared me as "brilliant"! Way to go! I can't wait for the next installment of the game, in just a little more than 98 years!
(For the ones that don't want to go through that idiot test, the last panel of the app says "The Idiot Game 2. Coming Soon... Release Date: Nov. - Dec 06). - MrKite, on 08/04/2008, -7/+2A square is a rectangle that has four equal sides. That's the difference. I think I learned that in 1st grade. If you don't know the difference between a rectangle that has equal sides and a rectangle that has unequal sides, then I suggest you get your eyes examined.

- CobaltBlue, on 08/04/2008, -1/+1You know what? Those weren't actual buttons either.
- Transporter2000, on 08/04/2008, -5/+0In geometry, a rectangle is defined as a quadrilateral where all four of its angles are right angles. A rectangle with vertices ABCD would be denoted as ABCD.
From this definition, it follows that a rectangle has two pairs of parallel sides; that is, a rectangle is a parallelogram. A square is a special kind of rectangle where all four sides have equal length; that is, a square is both a rectangle and a rhombus. A rectangle that is not a square is colloquially known as an oblong.
Not smart, cut and pasted from wikipedia. - dwhiteley87, on 08/04/2008, -0/+1I thought that it was just a trick question and you could pick any shape you wanted. Then I had to start over and realized that the person who made this isn't very versed in geometry.
- saucypony, on 08/04/2008, -1/+1I remember getting in a HUGE argument with my 5th grade teacher that there was absolutely no need to classify a square as being a rectangle as it already met the more restrictive requirements of being a square. I still stand by my argument haha...
- Brooks007, on 08/04/2008, -1/+1Ill say it again...You are truly an idiot if you don’t know the difference between a rectangle and a square.
LOL - Ben1220, on 08/05/2008, -0/+1true, but I think only an idiot wouldn't be able to figure out what that question was asking, even if that idiot knew that squares are subsets of rectangles :P
- donttaseme, on 08/09/2008, -0/+1A square is a rectangle. Ask anyone.... oh wait, they are all retarded and all answer it wrong.
- Bummer12, on 08/16/2008, -0/+1People spend too much time playing these idiot games....
I am sure that a scientist did not make this game...
So if you want to get smarter...go to school or collage.....
If you want to be stupid or a retard.....stay home and be a lazy butt..

Question 1: How Many Holes in a Polo.
I consider this question to be about polo shirts. There are 3 holes in them, not four as the quizz wants me to say.
I am not going to change the definition of the mathematical genus because some moron with flash have zero notions of topology.- BoneheadFarker, on 08/04/2008, -0/+11There are 4 holes in a polo shirt. Try counting them again.
- jivemasta, on 08/04/2008, -5/+1no dumbass, you think you are smart, but polo shirts actually have 2, the neck and bottom holes are only there because the shirt is curved into a cylinder like shape
- f54280, on 08/04/2008, -2/+0@BoneheadFarker
There are zero holes in a napkin
There is one hole in a poncho
A polo is a poncho with two additional holes for the arms.
Here, you can find the topological definition of what a hole is:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genus_(mathematics)
I don't care what your definition of a hole is. I just know that I will not change mine to a mathematically inconsistent one. - f54280, on 08/04/2008, -1/+0@jivemasta said "the neck and bottom holes are only there because the shirt is curved into a cylinder like shape"
So you are saying that a poncho have no holes in it ? And you are calling me a dumbass ?
PS: I studied topology for 3 years. You have to come along with better reasoning skills to impress me. - netneutrality, on 08/04/2008, -0/+2Polo shirts aren't solid shapes. They're made of fabric. The fabric has four main holes made in it.
- f54280, on 08/04/2008, -2/+0This is really fascinating. Right now, my original post saying that polo have 3 holes is at '-2', while the answer asserting that they have 4 is at '+7'.
This is really idiocracy in action.
To all that digged me down, and/or digged the '4' answer up, please answer the following questions first:
1) How many holes have a napkin ?
2) How many holes have a poncho ?
3) How many holes must you punch in a poncho to get a polo ? - carbanm, on 08/04/2008, -0/+8you guys are all idiots. it's asking about the phrase "a polo"...
- f54280, on 08/04/2008, -2/+0@netneutrality. The fabric has four main holes made in it."
You are just writing whatever comes first to your mind, without thinking about it.
First, there are no holes "made in" the fabric.
http://sew-ing.com/make/polo.html
Second, do you seriously believe that ponchos have two holes ?
Polo have 3 holes, even you believe differently. It is not a matter of faith, feeling or truthiness.
It really feels like I am in the idiocracy movie. I show you a flexible tube, and you are telling that there are two holes in it, one at each side. I show you a metal tube, and you tell me there is only one hole because it is "solid". And there is nothing I can do. Sigh. - Ryan166, on 08/04/2008, -0/+3I am wearing a polo right now, and it has 6 holes!! One for my head, one for each arm, one for my torso, and 2 more for buttons to go through by the neck. That is six holes.
- f54280, on 08/04/2008, -2/+1@Ryan166: no, that's 5. 3 from basic standard polo plus the 2 for the buttons.
- jerrycurley, on 08/04/2008, -1/+1f54280..."I don't care what your definition of a hole is. I just know that I will not change mine to a mathematically inconsistent one."
And you think this makes you more intelligent, or in ANY way superior to others?
Newsflash...it doesn't. It just pretty much gurantees that you will NEVER get laid in your entire life. - jerrycurley, on 08/04/2008, -1/+2by the way, f54280...you are getting buried due to the fact that this has NOTHING to do with a ***** SHIRT!
With every post you demonstrate that you MAY have book smarts (though this is not proven since nothing you said was all that advanced) but that you have absolutely NO street smrats or people skills. You are woefully unprepared for the real world. I hope your plans are to stay in academia your whole life. - EvilJelloMan, on 08/04/2008, -0/+1I think you missed the point of the quiz, douchebag.
- smurfsahoy, on 08/04/2008, -0/+3Yes, that's how I interpreted it as well (after guessing the answer). a, p, o, and o have holes in them. A polo shirt has either 3 holes or 5-6+ holes if it has buttons, but never 4, so clearly it's not talking about a polo shirt. The dozen or more questions that soon follow which refer to the words/letters in the question itself should make you feel a lot more certain about this.
- f54280, on 08/04/2008, -3/+1@jerrycurley : "And you think this makes you more intelligent, or in ANY way superior to others?"
It doesn't makes me intelligent. It makes me /right/.
"It just pretty much gurantees that you will NEVER get laid in your entire life."
That is a funny one, considering I have two kids.
"You are woefully unprepared for the real world. I hope your plans are to stay in academia your whole life."
I left academia in 1991, and my real world credential are none of you business.
@smurfsahoy: "A polo shirt has either 3 holes or 5-6+ holes if it has buttons, but never 4, so clearly it's not talking about a polo shirt"
That is circular reasoning. You cannot use the answer of the quizz to infer the answer of the quizz. (Note that you reasoning would be valid if '3' was not listed in the test answer)
@everyone else: I know what the quizz wanted for an answer and why. I am just amazed at all the idiots out here that actually believe that a polo shirt have 4 holes. - BoneheadFarker, on 08/04/2008, -0/+1@f54280
We may be idiots for "believing" polo shirts have 4 holes, but you're the one getting all uppity about it. Calm the ***** down...it's not that important... - coldfact, on 08/04/2008, -0/+1@f54280: who said anything about a polo shirt? FAIL
- smurfsahoy, on 08/05/2008, -0/+1@f54, Yeah, obviously the guy could have made a mistake... I'm just saying that since the answer is 4, we should lean toward the explanation that is both consistent with the rest of the quiz (puns, etc. in the wording of the question being relevant) and that can correctly yield an answer of 4. That's more likely what was intended than an explanation which refers to polo shirts, is not as witty, and happens to be wrong.
Anything's possible, but the letters explanation is far simpler and more likely. That's not circular reasoning at all - it's Ockham's razor.

- VarelseSoul, on 08/03/2008, -0/+9Well, it's their fault they aren't smart enough to know Red from Green. Right?
- elmafudd911, on 08/03/2008, -0/+3ITS NOT FAIR :(
- IDIGTHEDIGG, on 08/03/2008, -8/+23This is REALLY OLD
- zarcu, on 08/03/2008, -0/+63Am I considered smarter then the game if I know how to right click and click "forwards"?
- sleepy35758, on 08/04/2008, -0/+0that doesn't work...
- DrummerAndrew, on 08/09/2008, -0/+1*than. So, no.
- and303, on 08/03/2008, -4/+75I was expecting this to be a 2008 election poll.
- jordn, on 08/03/2008, -2/+18zing!
- sock2828, on 08/03/2008, -4/+13Damn that test where you have to press the lightest colored blue square!
I'm colorblind to light blues- q1006662, on 08/03/2008, -4/+5There's only one *square*
- AyaJulia, on 08/03/2008, -1/+2If by one you mean two.
- Galaxylander, on 08/03/2008, -1/+2There are 2 squares, you fail.
- alz0rz, on 08/03/2008, -0/+3one is the new two.
- iChainsaw, on 08/04/2008, -3/+1in math, squares = rectangles.
- q1006662, on 08/03/2008, -4/+5There's only one *square*
- blinker265, on 08/03/2008, -1/+75***** college! this game told me im a genius!
- ftw8tw, on 08/03/2008, -0/+10we are now successful
- darkciti2, on 08/04/2008, -0/+3Genius without discipline is worthless.
- Iam8up, on 08/03/2008, -8/+3I'm brilliant! Yay!
- FadieZ, on 08/03/2008, -7/+1221. The fact you completed the idiot test makes you an idiot for wasting your time.
2. Squares are rectangles too. Buried as inaccurate.- FSTRM, on 08/03/2008, -51/+0lol you just feel bad because you're retarded....also, if it seems he's considering the evenly sided 'rectangles' as squares, and the uneven ones as rectangles, are you retarded enough to act as a smartass and say "WELL DA SQUARZ ARE RECTANGLES TOO DURRR!11" stfu *****
- luke374, on 08/03/2008, -2/+1iawtc
... no not really. - Price, on 08/03/2008, -1/+9youtube comments,
go back to them
- luke374, on 08/03/2008, -2/+1iawtc
- TheMoniker, on 08/03/2008, -0/+9You're right on both points. Sorry to see that you have random homophobic rubes replying to your comment here.
- norm7, on 08/03/2008, -0/+4For that matter, if you're on digg then you have your answer.
- jimmick, on 08/04/2008, -0/+2Burying the idiot test for being inaccurate.
Nice.

- wonkavsn, on 08/03/2008, -7/+25A square is a rectangle.
- deathfix, on 08/03/2008, -1/+2That's not what I learned in kindergarten.
- CaptainHarlock, on 08/03/2008, -0/+3...but a rectangle is not a square.
- TheKitchenSinkX, on 08/04/2008, -0/+3Not necessarily, that is.
- wonkavsn, on 08/04/2008, -0/+1Hmmmm quite.. quite....
- Ortheos, on 08/04/2008, -0/+1And maths is just a mere tool for greater things.
- richmondphotog, on 08/03/2008, -1/+7Is that a test when they tell you to hit the big rewind button?
- asus2000, on 08/03/2008, -0/+1Yes, that was the ending for me. It flashed the next screen and then that rewind button came up.. Not sure if that's the ending or what.. It said I had to click something quick, and I wasn't ready..
- asus2000, on 08/03/2008, -2/+1Okay, I did it again and was ready for the quickie question. I'm brilliant, finally.. Geez.
- richmondphotog, on 08/03/2008, -0/+1No, I meant; was that an idiot test?, for example if I clicked to retry, was I an idiot.
- asus2000, on 08/03/2008, -0/+1Yes, that was the ending for me. It flashed the next screen and then that rewind button came up.. Not sure if that's the ending or what.. It said I had to click something quick, and I wasn't ready..
- diblasio, on 08/03/2008, -10/+6I've never seen this before, but I still think it's boring as *****. Buried.
- banmaster, on 08/03/2008, -2/+7So basically, you failed on it.
Okay, just checking.
- banmaster, on 08/03/2008, -2/+7So basically, you failed on it.
- baskin, on 08/03/2008, -4/+5there's nothing quite like vague questions with arbitrary answers to show me how much of a genius i am!
- Kristijan12, on 08/03/2008, -2/+17I failed at quickly press...
But English is not my native does that count?- SharkyTech, on 08/04/2008, -0/+3I knew as soon as they had the 'Don't Press the Button' twice they were going to have one when you had to click it really fast. I'm on a touchpad though, so I was kinda screwed.
- shadowmoose, on 08/03/2008, -2/+7Can't digg at least submit some original content and not that of 5 years ago?
- vbullinger, on 08/04/2008, -0/+1I don't think Digg sumits articles to itself.
- jull1234, on 08/04/2008, -0/+1The question is can digg submit articles to itself... it might be able to recommend something to itself, then submit a duplicate...?
- jordanlgta, on 08/03/2008, -19/+9I AM LEAVING A COMMENT TO TELL EVERYONE HOW I DID AT THE IDIOT TEST BECAUSE I BELIEVE PEOPLE WILL CARE ABOUT MY EXPERIENCE OR SCORE OVER OTHER PEOPLE'S EXPERIENCES OR SCORES!
- asus2000, on 08/03/2008, -3/+7Caps-lock auto fail
- ufia, on 08/03/2008, -0/+2Whoosh fail.
- asus2000, on 08/03/2008, -3/+7Caps-lock auto fail
- Ch3mn3rd, on 08/03/2008, -6/+16Oh the irony.
"Press the rectangle..."
All squares are rectangles so you should be able to click any of them.- allocate, on 08/03/2008, -2/+6Yep... I was pretty pissed off when I clicked on a square and had to start over.
- DaveVII, on 08/03/2008, -5/+2thats not what irony is...its a mistake.
- DraxusD, on 08/03/2008, -0/+9He's saying it's ironic that a guy making an idiot test (and insulting us throughout) is an idiot. You don't know it's a mistake... maybe he doesn't know squares are rectangles.
- lacronicus, on 08/03/2008, -0/+7It is ironic. You would expect an "idiot test" to understand the basic fundamentals behind the topics it asks about, yet it does not, fulfilling the definition of irony.
- Ch3mn3rd, on 08/04/2008, -0/+1Thanks for explaining that to him for me guys.
- D14BL0, on 08/03/2008, -2/+541995 called. They said to keep their stupid game; they didn't want it back then, either.
- Archaic1, on 08/03/2008, -1/+35Why did they call then?
- castevens, on 08/03/2008, -0/+21They're gonna get quite the long distance bill
- Archaic1, on 08/03/2008, -1/+35Why did they call then?
- pipes27, on 08/03/2008, -8/+3You're an idiot if you play this game.
- lestyoubejudged, on 08/03/2008, -3/+3SMART! Oh wait. maybe not cause I did the stupid test.
- gr00vy, on 08/03/2008, -1/+16While doing this the flash file sent out 30,000 email messages about canadian pharmacies to your contact list. Congratulations.
- kagebutsu, on 08/03/2008, -1/+6it said i'm brilliant.... that can't be right.
- kookbutt, on 08/03/2008, -8/+3I punched a smart kid in the face today. And I told him welcome to the real world where intelligence means very little. Just look at Bush, he got into Yale and Harvard and was able to graduate.
- banmaster, on 08/03/2008, -0/+12Bush didn't 'get in'. He was 'placed in'. There is a BIG difference.
- xtractor, on 08/04/2008, -1/+4you're an idiot, kookbutt.
- cl2yp71c, on 08/03/2008, -5/+1Yes yes..now I realize that it said 'square'.
Thanks for the mental support?
xD - thailand1972, on 08/03/2008, -6/+5Am I the only one here who was slightly aroused by all those shiny big buttons?
- zeptobyte, on 08/03/2008, -0/+11Hopefully.
- Defiant001, on 08/03/2008, -1/+0yup..
- Scriabin, on 08/03/2008, -14/+0Why hasn't anyone mentioned the Impossible Quiz yet?
http://www.1cup1coffee.com/fl/impossiblequiz.swf- banmaster, on 08/03/2008, -0/+7They have, several times.
- Scriabin, on 08/04/2008, -1/+0I was being sarcastic.
- TheKitchenSinkX, on 08/04/2008, -0/+2Worst sarcasm ever?
- banmaster, on 08/03/2008, -0/+7They have, several times.
- zecreven, on 08/03/2008, -1/+8it's more about measuring attention rather than cleverness
- MysticMist, on 08/04/2008, -1/+0It's more about pressing "X" then doing the quiz.
- jcm267, on 08/03/2008, -17/+9Buried as inaccurate. All squares are rectangles.
- Rheic, on 08/03/2008, -3/+13Really? You're the first person to mention that.
- MikeSetera, on 08/03/2008, -3/+3I was going to say the same thing. Why the ***** is jcm getting buried?
In geometry, a rectangle is defined as a quadrilateral where all four of its angles are right angles.
A square has four right angles. QED.

- Rheic, on 08/03/2008, -3/+13Really? You're the first person to mention that.
- leninobix, on 08/03/2008, -2/+6there is a small invisible link slightly to the left above the red circle on the main page. move your mouse around till you find it and when you click it it'll say that you passed the test as brilliant. that's pretty dumb.
- MrWhite7, on 08/03/2008, -0/+1That's the autoexec button. It's in most Linkway presentations. For those that are unaware, Linkway is as old as this damn quiz.
- zachsilvey, on 08/04/2008, -0/+1you can see it if you hit the tab button. it will be outlined in yellow
- DefaultGirl, on 08/03/2008, -6/+9Incorrect usage of terminology? ... check
Annoying, simplistic childish design? .... check
An embarrassment to real Idiot Qualifying test? .... definitely
But enabling my OCD to get the better of me? .... Only redeeming quality. ;-P - Roundbadge, on 08/03/2008, -2/+127I totally panicked at 'Press the green button - QUICK!'
- tehWhisp, on 08/04/2008, -0/+9Yeah, and I'm on a freaking laptop! I can't move my finger on the touchpad that fast! =(
- mizike, on 08/04/2008, -0/+1lol, the exact same thing happened to me, you can only be so fast or accurate on a trackpad...
- RyanMT, on 08/04/2008, -8/+3Yeah but on my Apple MacBook Pro I was able to do it very easily because of the superior technology HAR HAR HAR
- SolidSnak, on 08/04/2008, -0/+1i hate using a touchpad
- mrlivingston, on 08/04/2008, -0/+4I totally panicked on 'Hit the red square to begin'.
- SiXshooteR13, on 08/06/2008, -0/+0Blue square u mean O_O
- tehWhisp, on 08/04/2008, -0/+9Yeah, and I'm on a freaking laptop! I can't move my finger on the touchpad that fast! =(
- JK1150, on 08/03/2008, -8/+16i'm not this bored...
- banmaster, on 08/03/2008, -1/+7Only bored enough to write that comment.
You really *are* bored. And only boring people get bored.- bobbothegod, on 08/03/2008, -1/+1Only the Sith deal in absolutes...
does that make Obi-Wan a sith?
- bobbothegod, on 08/03/2008, -1/+1Only the Sith deal in absolutes...
- Yakoloi, on 08/04/2008, -0/+1Apperently you are
