    Are you smarter than a 5th grader?

    This is one of the funniest shows I've ever watched easily...pure comedy, if you're not watching this you have to.

    Some of the questions:

    What do you get when you mix red and yellow paint?
    What ship did the Pilgrims come to America on?

    There are actually some tricky ones...but it's pretty damn funny.
    I did a lot of good things as a sim league GM.

    Ah, give me something clever to say here.

    Here was tonight's $100,000 question:

    What element is Na?

    All I wanna know is how do I get on this show, lol. The questions are so simple. And you basically get a couple of freebies with the helps.

    I'm not surprised at all. Anything to get on TV or make money.

    So, now we're giving $100,000 to people who can prove they are smarter than a 5th grader?

    It's amusing. And hey, we all know there are plenty of things we learn in school that most of us never use in life, so they're easy to forget as you get older. :p

    The funny part is that the host himself is not smarter than a 5th grader.

    I'm not too crazy about the show myself, but it's always funny to see how stupid some people are. Too bad we can't all get on that show. Easy money.
    Integrity can accommodate the inadvertent error and the honest difference of opinion; it cannot accommodate deceit or subordination of principle.
