"Dr. S's Final Examinations for History Class"

Yes, It's that wonderful time of year students yearn for. (I don't care if I just ended a sentence with a preposition-STICK IT) Yes, the end of the school year. (except for those who failed and have summer school) So, to celebrate the END I, Dr. Shenanigans, offer up my final exam.  Fail and who cares- Pass and still who cares! So to date myself and to help most of you pass you will be tested on pop culture 80's entertainment themes.  There will be fifteen questions with an unlimited amount of time to complete this test.  Yes, housewives you can still watch a soap and take it.  Men, you can still fall asleep at work on your desk, wake up and finish it.  Kid's you can even take it on your app phone in your car while driving.  But, if you wreck please blame Twitter or Facebook and not me.  I have included the exam section as well as an answer key page at the end for you to grade yourself.  If you want to post feed back or questions- you can try-I want answer because- I don't care! So let's get started!  Good luck-have a safe summer-and see you in the fall (well those of you who are not taking this while driving!)

Let's be honest, although you can guess correctly and grade well, fact is, if you actually took the time to test consider yourself to have a mild personality disorder. Your sort of like those folks who play with that "goofy" golf tee subtraction game down at "Cracker Barrel," to the chagrin of everyone at the table.  You know what I am talking about!  The type of activity that solicits wait staff to provide you with crayons and a coloring sheet even as an adult and even when you don't ask.  So regardless of how you feel about your intelligence (you should feel rather low) here is the answer key and point yield per question.
