A series of logic puzzles, general knowledge, spelling, Maths (In England we add an 's' on the end), science, and philosophical questions, interspersed with:
1)Explain why America did not win the Battle of Britain.
2)Explain America's founding in relation to British history.
3)Define "******".
4)Explain how America have not won every war they take part in.
This test would take place (in variation) ever year, and failure to get the above questions correct will result in confiscation of games console and a required re-sit.
1: Point to Iraq/Iran/Pakistan on a map. They talk about how America should bomb them and other racist crap like that and the majority don't know where it is they're bombing.
2: As a species, what should our main goal be? I often wonder why we argue and fight for land and other insignificant stuff instead of trying to progress as a species. Why don't we spend the trillions and trillions of dollars for the armies on scientific research, help us better understand everything and everywhere, finally answer the big questions?
3: What is the greatest country in the world? The answer is ''There isn't one''. Seriously, the amount of Americans I meet who claim they live in the perfect country. Don't take that the wrong way, obviously the majority of Americans don't think that, but even the minority that do are a lot of people.
1) Explain the difference between "your" and "you're".
2) Explain the difference between "their", "they're", "there" and "dare".
3) What does the scouter say about his power-level?
4) What gives objects their mass?
5) Are you getting bored?
6) Did you ever get past the first question?
7) Did you skip the first 2 questions?
Grades will be calculated like this: points of question 1 * points of question 2 * the sum of the points of the other questions.

The first would be questions about and pertaining to classic literature (Verne, Tolstoy, Dumas, Melvil, Poe, etc.), the second would be science fiction and RPG trivia (with a subsection in video game history), and the third would be about classic rock and heavy metal from the 50's through the 80's.

For US students: If the Constitution is so revered and unchangable, what's the deal with amendments being added, 27 times so far? Why do some people seem to worship the unchangable nature of the Constitution and the 2nd Amendment equally, without seeing the irony inherent in that?
