I'm so old I'm dead.

Smallie, please assure us you got #8 right.
 
I got #8 right. Are you telling us you aced this thing?
 
16 right..missed #3, #4, #5, and #11
nice test...
 
I got #8 right. Are you telling us you aced this thing?

I read #20 too fast, or I would have. I know all this stuff. Well, a couple of the rhymes gave themselves away.
 
Missed #3 and #11.
 
Definitely for the older set. Some of this was well before my time. I got 15.
 
I missed #10...........Not bad for an old guy I suppose. :banana:
 
My story: I'm amending my assertion that I'm a pop culture illiterate. I'm a pop culture illiterate regarding things that happened during my lifetime.

Edit: Grandma's stash of decades-old Reader's Digests in the lake cottage attic finally came in useful!

I liked the ones from back in the '70s and early '80s. Today's Reader's Digests just aren't the same.

'40s and '50s. Love the ads.
 
I figured those were the ones you were talking about. I haven't seen any older than the '70s though. :-(
 
17 here Missed #4, #11 and #17
 
I got 13. Not bad for a youngster.
 
I must be old!!!!!
I missed #11, but then I was never a big Dylan fan :confused2:

You didn't have to be a Dylan fan to know the line. In fact, I didn't realize he was the source.
 
I missed #1 I aced all the rest 19 out of 20 thats what happens when your'e 45 or just that I have one of those brains that always is a font of info people don't usually think about good at all kinds of trivia.
 
I got 15 of them. Missed #1, #3, #4, #11, and #12.
 
I am trying to find a thread and ran across this.

Lots of new people since it was last posted in. Give it a shot, only takes a few minutes!
 
I got 15 right, which seems pretty good to me since I'm under 30.
