<p>I think the word CYNICAL really rules that answer out. He was NOT cynical at all. His essay was the opposite of cynical.</p>

<p>Anyone remember any of the philosophy ones?</p>

<p>^^^ I mean proverbs</p>

<p>I remember one question that asked what the author's definition of a proverb was, I think the answer was that it did not have to be true.</p>

<p>I thought it didn't have to be popular or something...I cant remember that one too well.</p>

<p>Ditto to latch.</p>

<p>i put i didnt have to be true; i think that if you read a couple sentences before, you would find out that proverbs didnt have to be true.</p>

<p>What were the other options.</p>

<p>I don't remember all the choices, but the "popular" thing you mentioned was there.</p>

<p>I answered "didn't have to be true"</p>

<p>i put didnt have to be true as well</p>

<p>same here.</p>

<p>another proverbial question was what's the biggest difficulty in compiling a compendium of the most common proverbs. i put distributing the surveys.</p>

<p>I did too, I think. And yeah the other one was it didn't have to be true.</p>

<p>same (&1&2)</p>

<p>Yeah, it said that right in the passage.</p>

<p>does anybody remember other questions especially in the proverbs story one?</p>
