Juhuuu 10/10 again. Currently top of my Leaderboard.
Brasilia was an "A" guess. I picked 5 to be an Ace because I didn't think it would be a lot. Swan late sort of rang a bell. The rest I knew. Surprised not so many know that the E Street band is with The Boss.
Oscar Niemeyer designed Brasília's public buildings, but Lúcio Costa designed the urban design. He didn't intend for the city to resemble an airplane, but rather a cross, with a curvature along one of its axes due to the terrain's relief.
8/10.....I like the quizzes that make me go down a rabbit hole to learn something. Don't really care about who Taylor Swift has dated but I do respect her career. More entertained by Neodymium's theme paranoia -
The punk venue was CBGB, which ironically stands for Country BlueGrass and Blues. Although those were the original intended genres, the place was never known for them.
Yeah see funnily enough last week I had a conversation about the old New York punk club and we were both convinced it was Studio 54, but on this quiz I went for CBGBs because it sounded like the Bee Gees 😂
8/10 I guessed just a little too high on how to become and ace and I rushed on the nightclub question before reading all the options. But at least I know my ballets!
Apparently my standards are MUCH higher than the air force's. I don't think you should achieve Ace level for anything fewer than 100 enemies shot down. 5 is like getting a trophy for participating.
And yes, I'm sarcastically trying to justify my stupid mistake on the quiz.

todays theme = plants! (i felt like ive done this before, will make a table of all themes thenceforward)
notes: 9/10 by luck
1. some (probably falsely) claim the yellow is wheat and, blue, the sky. wheat is a plant
2. wonka has a chocolate factory, chocolate is sourced from Theobroma cacao (cacao plant), spcfcly. the beans
3. the swifts also owned a christmas tree farm. christmas trees are trees. though artificial christmas trees are better anyway
4. botany
5. both are herbavores
6. spring bears life upon rime'd grounds, and paints the crops with the colors that were asleep in the clouds hitherto. crops are plants.
7. The Red Baron, an ace, crashed onto a field on a hill. Plants grow on fields
8. that capital's country has a big forest with plants
9. sounds like 451℉. paper is burned in that book. paper's now made of plants. (tho previously cloth, &c!)
10. lakes have plants, such as cattails

3/10, and beat 1% of testers if that even counts!
Ouch.
8/10 only beats 64% though so I guess this quiz was easy? felt average though (other times I feel great getting 8, this time it was meh..)
