(Yet another) quiz...

Chatterbox: Chirp at Cricket

(Yet another) quiz...

(Yet another) quiz... thing! Yay! Because Haley has nothing better to do! Inspired because my music library is actually on shuffle for once, and I love these things.

This time, open whatever application you use to play music (e.g, iTunes) and put it on shuffle. For each question, your answer is whatever your player chooses to play when you hit the next button.

In other words, iTunes>shuffle>read question>skip to next song>answer with song title.

And no, you're not expected to answer truthfully. It's supposed to be silly and nonsensical. That's why it's fun! However, you are allowed to write your comments on the music app's answers. 

Savvy?

1. What is your name?

2. What is your favourite colour?

3. What is your quest?

4. What is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow?

5. How do you know so much about swallows?

6. D'you think Haley needs to stop watching Monty Python?

7. What book are you currently reading?

8. Excited for NaNoWriMo?

9. Are you annoyed by these yes/no questions?

10. If 2x+6y=18x-9y, what is x? What is y? (two answers, two different songs)

11. What's your favourite musical?

12. What's your least favourite song?

13. Got milk? 

15. Where did you bury 14? 

And MY answers: 

 

1. What is your name?

Transformation

2. What is your favourite colour?

The Only One ((In a weird way that sounds like it could be an actual answer...))

3. What is your quest?

The Point of No Return-Chandelier Crash ((Mass destruction and black holes! Yay! And opera!)) 

4. What is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow?

Singapor ((Um...)) 

5. How do you know so much about swallows?

How I Know You (Reprise) ((That's a wee bit strange/stalkerish sounding... Especially if you don't know the play...)) 

6. D'you think Haley needs to stop watching Monty Python?

Lappi, Pt. 4 Etiäinen ((Wee!)) 

7. What book are you currently reading?

The Norwegian Ridgeback/A Change of Season

9. Are you annoyed by these yes/no questions?

The Old Gumbie Cat ((I'm guessing that... means... no?)) 

10. If 2x+6y=18x-9y, what is x? What is y? (two answers, two different songs)

X=The Funeral; Y=The Yodeling Veterinarian of the Alps ((Um...)) 

11. What's your favourite musical?

12. What's your least favourite song?

Memory ((You're lying!)) 

13. Got milk?  

The Gods Love Nubia ((I think iTunes is obsessed with Aida... How strange...))

It's a reallyreally bad thing that I don't actually *have* an application to play music, right? Yes, thought so.

I just picked a random CD and used that. (I don't know the order.) Be warned, though, it's Julie Andrews Christmas carols. 

1. What is your name? Joy to the World. (Haha, it's *so* true.)

2. What is your favourite colour? Irish Carol. (apparently... why not Greensleeves or something?)

3. What is your quest? O Little Town of Bethlehem. (well, I guess that sort of makes sense... in a roudabout way...)

4. What is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow? Deck the Halls. (yep, uh-huh...)

5. How do you know so much about swallows? Angels From the Realms of Glory. (That makes sense! Kind of... like angels and swallows both fly... *cough* yes...)

6. D'you think Haley needs to stop watching Monty Python? The Lamb of God. (that's mildly cryptic...)

7. What book are you currently reading? Away in a Manger. (um...)

8. Excited for NaNoWriMo? Sunny Bank! (that's optimistic, right? Take it as a "yes.")

9. Are you annoyed by these yes/no questions? It Came Upon a Midnight Clear. (wait, what?)

10. If 2x+6y=18x-9y, what is x? What is y? (two answers, two different songs) X = Greensleeves, and Y = The Bells of Christmas.

11. What's your favourite musical? God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen. (Well, it's a good *song*... though it always makes me think hippogriffs.)

12. What's your least favourite song? Wexford Carol. (Well, it's not the best song... a bit scolding, I think.)

13. Got milk? Jingle Bells. (It sounds best when JA sings it, though I'm not sure where milk comes in.) 

15. Where did you bury 14's body? It Might as Well be Spring. (Since I didn't understand the question I s'pose it's only fair that the answer makes very little sense. The song's kind of weird, also.)

Considering I don't have iTunes or anything, I think that was okay. Yes?

Yes, indeed.

Also, TOP!

Also also, why does God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen make you think of hippogriffs?

Lol, Jenni.

GRYMG makes me think hippogriffs because in OotP Sirius has Buckbeak, and he mopes around the house singing, "God rest ye merry, hippogriff..." like so. I read OotP when I was what, eight (?), and had a very strange sense of humour... :/

I think the answer I got for "Why do you know so much about swallows?" is extremely odd. I mean, "John, I'm Only Dancing"? haha! I think later I might do it with a different playlist other than my David Bowie playlist. DB songs are always odd.

Ah!!  Don't make me sad!!!!  I'm so frustrated with JKR!!!  I can't BELIEVE the way she kills off Dumbledore!!!!!  (I just finished the sixth, don't tell me about the seventh please!!)  I mean, come on!  I thought he'd die in battle, or something!  Not at his weakest!  It was horrific!  And I'm also frustrated, because the last three books have ended sad!
