I thought i'd join in. Not to spam or anything, but to test you!!!

I'll list a few quiz thingies, the first one to get them ALL right, wins... well... wins basically.

Don't post partial answers, since you win nothing for giving away half the answers to whoever eventually gets them all right.

This is the first quiz of this type I will do, and, with my usual mentality with such things, it's all about words.

Film quotes; name the movie from which each quote was taken for a point each (those familiar with Total Film magazine should be familiar with these.)

1) "Take it, take the ****ing elephant"
2) "You came in that thing? You're braver than i thought!"
3) "you're entering a world of pain man, a world of pain."
4) "I'm the dude. Or the dudester, or his dudeness..."
5) "What I do want, is for you to stand there in your faggoty white uniform and extend me some ****ing courtesy. YOU HAVE TO ASK ME NICELY"

The latin section: oh so easy, everyone knows a latin phrase or two, and why not. translate correctly for a point each. I've given hints, since i don't expect most of you to really be able to get them otherwise...

1) Nemo me impune lacessit (actually printed on the side of many a pound coin...)
2) Morituri te salutamus (spoken in english in "Gladiator" the Russell Crowe film)
3) Ipsa scientia potestas est (possibly the truest thing ever said, and truer every day as technology makes it so.)

random stuff. totally random questions, fortunately few in number but worth plenty of points.

1) the tag [deletia] in an e-mail denotes what exactly? (3 points)
2) What is a Haiku - full explanation plz. (4 points)

total of 15 points.

GO!!!
