Okay so the above quiz is incredibly biased. One main reason for this is: That it assumes that for you to be an adult you must SURVIVE off of coffee (or otherwise drink this beverage). I for one do NOT imbibe coffee. I've never drunk a whole cup of coffee at once. Sure, I've tried it at trade shows (in that little thimble-sized cup) and so on, but a full cup, even highly adulterated? No.

As for the rest of my answers… some of them are liberally answered: for example, I occasionally watch talk shows, and yet didn't check it off since it's so rare. I also am sometimes slow at getting my housework done — but priorities are priorities etc. *shrugs*
