Well, the other day I was reading a few random threads here at the 'Rack when this one caught my wandering eye. You can only imagine my disappointment when I opened it and discovered it was merely about politics...
Low and behold! My Intro to American Politics professor asked this very question on our quiz that day! And thanks to Hatrack -- and specifically HonoreDB -- I scored the extra credit points on this question and bumped my grade from a B+ to an A-!
Thank you Hatrack for helping me keep up that GPA!

This looks like a good Hatrack back-patting thread!! Yay Godric. Yay Hatrack!
I love Hatrack because it's a community, not just a message board.
I love the dobies. I love the debates. I love the fluff threads, the hug threads, the politics and the onanism threads. (oops. that one slipped.)
The sun just shines brighter where there's a cable connection and Hatrack! *Sings a cheesy song about butterflies and puffy clouds*
But seriously Godric, that's AWESOME. I bet your prof was impressed. Did anyone else in your class get it right, or were you the only one with the fantastic watertight memory? Very cool. *goes to read the entire thread so she can be smarter*

I guess the old fable that Hatrack rots your brain is now demonstrably false.

You've given me good justification for my addiction Godric! Posted by ak (Member # 90) on :
Godric, what was the exact question, and what did you answer? <laughs> This is great!
Hatrack is the only thing that keeps me abreast of pop culture, seeing as how I don't watch tv and rarely go to the movies. Because of hatrack I'm not a TOTAL alien, cause I have some idea of what the latest movies, tv shows, bands, and computer games are. My office partner was so impressed a couple of years ago when cds I played in the office later showed up on our alternative rock station AFTER I was already all on top of them. <laughs> He thought I was so hip because of that.

It was just a multiple choice question that asked what the latest Zogby poll results were. I think a few others got it right, but I'm pretty sure they were just guessing. I almost burst out laughing when I saw that was the bonus question after just reading the thread here. But I maintained my composure so as not to get myself into any trouble.
