A WEDNESDAY OT THING @ 6:30 AM* **- SCAVVY'S GHOST! the ghost with the most AND OT!

 Good morning. This is the open thread I guess. What is up, my brothers and sisters? 

Will we be graded on a curve?

When I think back on the Kinjaverse (does it deserve a -verse? More like parts of Eastern Europe, esp. since it's been wiped off the map web. Wither Czechoslovakia? O Nick Denton, how goes the annihilation of Facebook?), I remember TotWs, CotDs, cross threads, discrete pockets of arcane knowledge. Mostly I remember scavvy's pop quizzes.

POP QUIZ! (reminder: the TotW is Ye Olde Kinja)

Kinjanaut or KinjaNOT?

How well do you remember Kinja? It's BT heavy due to my biases, but there's a sprinkling of the other subs and a few main pagers as well. (A Pop quiz with that soda fizz, is what this is, Mr or Ms.) Please finish the quiz before the song ends.
