My brother used to watch a kid's show called Pinwheel when he was little, so I broke into song too..... Apparently I still know the theme song... I didn't need those brain cells for anything useful. cool, cool.
I tried for the longest to remember the word "shuriken" and failed. A bit disappointed that I had to google it in the end. I mean that the answer is given as "throwing star" and I still didn't know the word I was looking for.
card indexes don't have the rolling part which I think is a pretty important part of rolodexes. ALso, afaik filofaxes are like a notebook and are pretty different from rolodexes except for the fact that they both use a similar disk
I had one until the mid/late-2000s, although it was largely just a backup by the late 90s. Technology was changing so quickly with various email systems, computer directories, blackberries, palm pilots and other PDA's, and cell phones that electronic contact lists were lost to obsolete technology regularly. But the primitive Rolodex was always reliable.
Those of us of a certain age still refer to people's contacts as their "Rolodex" (as in "he's got a great Rolodex for people in that industry") even though none of us has used one in years. I wonder how many younger colleagues don't understand what we mean.
that is definitely not an amphitheatre, but just a theatre.
in fact, the name identifies a theatre which has places by both sides (amphi- = "around to" but also "both") while the picture shows clearly a single side theatre (theatron in greek).
Properly, an amphitheatre is the Colosseum of Rome (or the ones you can find still standing in Verona, Capua, Arles, Nimes)
From Wikipedia: "Modern English parlance uses "amphitheatre" for any structure with sloping seating, including theatre-style stages with spectator seating on only one side"
I agree with it, I think most people would call that an amphitheater, and 58% got it here
I'd add hoist as well, in my limited world it stops becoming a pulley when the rope is replaced by a cable or chain. I know they are still pulleys but hoist infers a more industrial application as does the rusted chain in the picture.
A fleeting construct, manufactured by corporations to instill a sense of neverending lust for a satisfaction which does not exist on the mortal plane and can ever only truly be reached via the path of self-integration
A reflection on the smallness of man's modern day social sphere, as millions go to labour each day at advertising firms such as Big Crescent Roll, forsaking their fellow man in exchange for a handful of paper dollars, enough to only get them through one more day of the cruel cycle of irony as they drive their ego further away from the nourishment which they truly yearn

Do you think the 12/18 average is a true reflection of general knowledge, or do people get bored & click-out partway through? Pagoda & rolodex seem fairly niche; the others seem pretty grade school
