7. I find myself disappointed in friends who can't name ANY of the Justices.
Maybe my standards are just too high... Or maybe I need new friends.

Oh, and GO ROCKIES!!!!!!!!!!!1

8. 59% is pretty low for knowing the 3 stooges.
No wonder only 17% can name supreme court justices.

14. Break this down by gender... this is clearly a place where men EXCEL.
Congratulations, gentlemen. (For naming the Stooges, not the Supremes.)

18. I still insist that five of the Supreme Court justices are the Three Stooges
I'll let you parse the rest out yourself, but Thomas is Curly Joe DaRita & Roberts is Shemp.
