ANIMANIACS FAN PURITY TEST (V2.2)
Introduction
Most of us here would probably call ourselves "Animaniacs fans". But how much
do you _really_ deserve that title? Animaniacs fans can range from the casual
fan, who might watch if there was nothing else to do, to the geek who knows
the words to every song, to the deranged psychopath who lives to dig through
Warner Bros. Studio garbage cans. This is the "official" alt.tv.animaniacs
test to determine how much Animaniacs rules your life. This test was mainly inspired by the
multitude of "purity tests" that are out there. Although most
"purity tests" tend to be of an explicit nature, this test is good clean fun
for the entire family.
To score sections 1 through 4, simply count the total of "yes" answers, and
add bonus points where indicated.
Most of the questions were written by Brendan Dunn (bdunn@cco.caltech.edu), so
complain to him. Oh, and just to cover myself, not everything on this list
is a *GOOD IDEA*. Some things might very well land you in a heap o' trouble
were you to attempt them just to score points on this test. Just remember,
there's a difference between being a true fan of the show, and a dangerous
lunatic with an Animaniacs fixation.
Now on with the test....
