Lambchop Flansburgh Posted October 25, 2005 Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 I got SEVEN! This is probably the most random guessing I've ever done on one of these. I will admit I looked up the Flaming Lips one, but I still got 6 right on pure luck. Well, maybe 5. Number one was pure skill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
