would've been funnier if you used the hint. anyways, not as good as 'find x'

I wonder what hint they would give you.

yeah the hint is "it started between the years 1811 and 1813", how retarded must you be to need the hint in the 1st place

I loved the math one, the Super Mario music just adds to the hilarity. This one is funny too!

The joke is a little different from the math is pwned joke... in this case, the question is the joke, rather than the answer. I don't think it's quite as good, but it's not bad, anyway.

The joke is older than your mother.

Fad title would've ruined the joke, but I didn't quite expect a website.

Only thing that'd make it better is if you included the hint. 5'd, all the same.

This should be the PTKFGS version of "Math is Pwned". Sadly, that slot has been filled.

the fact that it's a real site makes up for the old joke. also, the hint is genius.

The answer is bubble five: None of the above. In reality, there WAS no War of 1812, it's just another lie spread by the Scientologists.

Still not as good as the Ancient Japanese Crab War with real time weapon change and the weaks points that if struck caused massive damage.

This proves that the U.S. Education Systems fails again. To a random American: Locate North Korea on the map. They point to Australia due to it's a really big is out in the Pacific. Same for Iraq and Iran. We simply don't cover History/Geography enough. Mainly geography. It makes an American sad. :(

"Do Americans even know the War of 1912 existed?" Of course, The Nazis vs. the Titanic. The Titanic held its own for a while, but the Nazis used their mighty iceberg attack, and defeated the Titanic in the Battle of Tunisia. But that victory didn't last long, 'cause down the road came FDR with his shotgun! He singlehandedly beat the Nazis AND the aliens. Then he abolished slavery and Mario and Princess Peach lived happily ever after.

Questions like this are so freakin hilarious. I was playing starcraft yesterday, and after a game wait for my freind to g on. So i go into the OP TriviaHost channel to be quized. It asked "Turtle sex is very easy to identify by its sound. Males grunt, and _________ hiss" What else could be there?

This ytmnd seems retarded and very simplistic, but considering what it is, I've gotta give it a 4.

Congrats dummy. The 100 years war wasn't 100 years and the 30 years war wasn't 30 years. That doensn't mean it's pwned, that means it's a misnomer.

"Congrats dummy. The 100 years war wasn't 100 years and the 30 years war wasn't 30 years. That doensn't mean it's pwned, that means it's a misnomer." ... but it DID start in 1812! Which means it's not a misnomer!

Take it from me, people who teach or write about History seriously never use common sense. I should bloody know, I learnt History for many-a-year and had such idiotic teachers.

Dude. This isn't a history exam. It's for programming websites. Of course it's gonna be a dumb question.
June 27th, 2006
(0)
I don't think most people realize the image is from a web design class not from an actual history exam. The question itself is a joke unlike the math one.
June 27th, 2006

Wow what kind of retard class are you in?
June 27th, 2006

At first I gave it a 1 because I thought it was obviously fake, and then I checked the description...

As others have said, this isn't a history course. Using my mad internet skills of looking at the url, I was able to figure you this is for a course called Designing Universally Accessible Web Resources.
June 27th, 2006

very nice, but clearly a rip off of the "Find X" ytmnd
June 27th, 2006

Even if it is a web design course, the question itself is still the funny part (1812.) And many people asked me to add the hint part, so I did.

You've all pretty much pwned yrselves. If you actually look at the site this comes from, you will note it isn't a real test question. It's just a dummy markup question used for a class that teaches "Universally Accessible Web Pages;" in other words, sites that people with handicaps can navigate easily.

For those of you who downvoted, or who didn't vote, the real joke is the question itself (not the website.) The website is used to show the question. As for the hint part.... many people asked me to add it, so I did.
June 27th, 2006

get rid of the hint
