Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Strong Bad must have studied to be an ecologist. In "Lures and Jigs," he shouts out to the fish that he is trying to catch that he has some phytoplankton. What are phytoplankton?

Answer: One-celled water plants

Most phytoplankton are green algae. But this knowledge didn't help Strong Bad catch any fish.

2. Strong Bad entered the All-Wide Science Fair with a unique project. What was it?

Answer: "A Mathematic Analysis of the Effects of Caffeine on Strong Sad"

Strong Bad's conclusion in "Caffeine" was that Strong Sad + Caffeine = Science.

3. Strong Bad is also an accomplished grammarian. In "Local News," the first educational song he sings is designed to help clarify what common grammar dilemma?

Answer: When to use "its" vs. "it's."

As he sings:
"Oh, If you want it to be possessive, it's just I-T-S,
But if it's supposed to be a contraction, then it's I-T-apostrophe S."
He also sings songs to clarify when to use your/you're, encourage use of spell checking and capitalization, and discourage use of Internet abbreviations in emails.
I think we should offer Strong Bad a position as an editor.

4. In "Butt IQ," as a famous mathematician, Strong Bad created the Transitive Butt Property to measure butt IQ. stupidity (butt) is greater than or equal to stupidity (head.) Is this actually an example of a transitive property?

Answer: No

A real transitive property of equality would go something like this:
If
Strong Bad=Ruler of Strong Badia
and
Ruler of Strong Badia= A Really Hot Guy
then
Strong Bad= A Really Hot Guy

Answer: iMac

Of course, The Cheat is smart enough to know a superior computer when he sees it. Too bad Strong Bad doesn't seem to want to upgrade his email system.

6. Strong Bad is also an Internet etiquette expert. In "Sugarbob," what cardinal rule does he mention?

Answer: Don't write in all caps

Of course, writing in all caps is SHOUTING! Again, Strong Bad would make a good editor.

7. Strong Bad has also served the role of educator to our children. In his book, "Everyone is Different," which was *not* one of the vocabulary words that he taught?

Answer: marshmallow

In reality, Strong Bad took a copy of a children's book and added his own drawings and interjections.

8. Strong Bad, versatile type that he is, has also tried a career as a cartoonist. What series did he create?

Answer: Teen Girl Squad

"Teen Girl Squad" relates the adventures of four girls - Cheerleader, So-and-So, What's Her Face, and The Ugly One - as they get crushes on boys and are the targets of various heavy machinery.

9. Strong Bad has also tried a stint creating an item to sell on an infomercial. In "Suntan," what was his novel idea?

Answer: The -"Ab-Abber 2000," a permanent pen used to draw abs on your chest

The Ab-Abber also came with "The Cloitsterizer," a piece of cheese on a string, designed to accentuate your "cloits and dloits."

10. Where did Strong Bad acquire his impressive education?

Answer: Crazy Go Nuts University

In "CGNU," Strong Bad pitched that CGNU offered, among other things, certificates in cheesing people off, home invasion, TV/VCR repair, and sending him a dollar.
