Melinda: “What does vacuous mean?”

That is all.

edit – that is not all. Referring to the term “perspicacious”, Melinda asked “Does that have anything to do with perspiration?”

(Melinda is taking the stupid test. See my sidebar.)

You do look like a complete moron…correction…complete epileptic moron when playing the Wii. You get up, flail around, and swear a lot. But damn is it fun. After waiting an extra week just to play the thing (and then waiting another few days for a replacement wiimote), it’s still worth it.
