The 7 Dwarfs Win It

[Android-XS]

Can you name 2 of the Seven Dwarfs?

Can you name 2 of the Supreme Court Justices?

Your not alone.. I saw this on MSN.com today.
77% of the polled Americans could name at least two of the 7 Dwarfs, but only 24% could name at least 2 of the Supreme Court Justices.

Wrong or right, I fall into the 77% category.

Here's the VIDEO

I can name 6/7 dwarfs and 4/9 justices.
The dwarfs names are easier to remember. :lookaroun

On a side note, I could name the three branches easily, but I thought the stooges were Manny, Moe and Jack. :lookaroun

I named 6 of 7 dwarfs, 9 of 9 justices, but only 4 of 7 duffs (I remembered Surly, Edgy, Tipsy, and Remorseful, but forgot Dizzy, Queasy, and Sleezy. D'oh!).

To be honest, If I were put on the spot I probably would have only been able to get two of them (Scalia and Alito). When I looked them up on Wikipedia, the names looked familar--but I certainly don't have them commited to memory (Now, Ruth Bader Ginsburg makes the memory banks. HAWT! )

Tests like this are kinda' stupid, in my opinion. Of course people are going to know the seven dwarfs over the supreme court justices. After all, people tend to show more interest in pop-culture. Not to mention, Disney and other advertisers have placed common characters in the media spotlight. For instance, I know that Geico's mascot is a Gecko. That doesn't necessarily mean I value car insurance over the American Judicial system, but it proves how much energy companies spend on making sure we know their brands and characters.
