Wow, I got 15/15 somehow. I picked a few that I thought would get wrong, but it turns out they were right...

I don't think his commonly misspelled words like "the" and "a" are in that quiz though. :lol:

Ok, so I got an email from someone today with the word "prolly" contained within the body. I imagine that this word was supposed to "probably."

When did the use of "prolly" become common?
