There's no deeper meaning behind the question, Kawaii - it's just a joke. They wouldn't get that if you had 3 apples then that's the answer to the question. Don't mention philosophy on the GAA players exam thread, by the way - it has 4 syllables for God's sake! The implication is that GAA players are slow, you see...

StupidLikeAFox

Ive a funny feeling it was written with american football players in mind.....

spudington16

It was originally written for American football players (hence a number of American references in some of the questions - e.g. 7-11, Macie's, etc.) but it was changed by an Irishman who posted it on his website.

Redhairedguy

Should i be worried?

oddlyaromatic

Redhairedguy

I got the joke Paul. You think I'm stupid? And besides, you showed me that joke before.

Don't take things so seriously.

i'm a gaa ploayer and i work in spar so their is no need to get personnal

oddlyaromatic

I have nothing against the people who work in Spar. It was a joke.

It would only be personal if I knew you and wanted to piss you off.

Point taken though.
