12%! It started off well, but the further I got into the questions the more irritated I got!

RubySparks · 12/12/2013 07:39

13% I was very tolerant to start with and it went downhill from there!

pootlebug · 12/12/2013 07:41

12%. Tolerant to start with but soon unleashed my inner pedant.

Goldmandra · 12/12/2013 07:43

1%!

I expected to get a high score, not rock bottomShock

I am paid to be pedantic, and got 13%. Some of them, while incorrect, would make the text sound clumsy if changed.

27% I'm strict like a school teacher! Glad to see I haven't lost it since becoming a SAHM (ex teacher).

I think it was described as barely controlled inner rage!

Alibabaandthe40nappies · 12/12/2013 08:36

7% - and I thought I was being quite relaxed!

At the beginning I was relaxed and smug. As the quiz progressed not only did I become progressively less tolerant but I could also feel myself seething at the examples.

I now have inexplicable anger!

Off to have a recuperatory chocolate orange.

barely

Or was it an ironic gesture offers get out clause
