I guess I'm unusual. I had an Iguana eating an Apple in Djibouti. But then again, I knew this one very well (I've used it in my magic routines) and deliberately avoided the typical "Denmark" answer.

Another variation, still playing off of the typical Denmark answer asks you to think of the second letter of that country, think of an animal that starts with that letter, and think of the color of that animal and typically results in you thinking about a gray elephant (although I have gotten responses of a brown and white eagle).

I figured on being unusual, but can anybody think of a fruit that starts with "I" for my Kiwi in Denmark to be munching on?

According to this site, you could go with either an Ita Palm or an Indian Jujube.

Whoa is that confusing. I guess I did OK, though. I scored an 88% but my eyes are rolling around in their sockets at the moment.

New Banker - I guess GMTA because I got exactly the same thing.

I'm also Eccentric, Gross, Detatched, Traditionalist (must have been the South Park fan in me....)

I guess I must be a quick learner on the Color Test. I got 25% the first time (Distinctly Below Average) and 100% the second time (I am the Master!) - Must be why I'm in Compliance....

I got a B. Foppish doesn't mean foolish, though. Look it up. Although the word fop does originate from the middle english word for fool, the term means someone who is sissified and a dandy, especially about clothing and appearance. So acting foppishly would be acting like a sissy, which is why I chose "Cry baby" for my answer - it seemed the closest.

Here's the definition as per Merriam-Webster:
One entry found for foppish.
Main Entry: fop·pish
Pronunciation: 'fä-pish
Function: adjective
Date: 1599
1 obsolete : FOOLISH, SILLY
2 a : characteristic of a fop b : behaving or dressing in the manner of a fop
- fop·pish·ly adverb
- fop·pish·ness noun

So apparently the foolish, silly word has an obsolete meaning!
