I'm not even thirty and I'd have to stop and think about both of those questions for at least a second.

I actually don't know exactly the official boundaries of the seasons (I suppose because they never mattered to me?) I know autumn bleeds into winter into spring, and I know December is in Summer, though where it is in the "official" demarcation of Summer I don't actually know off the top of my head.

Now I just feel like I'm mentally deficient in someway




Lol if you look at the link I provide and scroll down you can take the full test. I can assure you it is pretty straight forward to someone of sound mind. It isn't really meant to trick and some times you have to adjust it a little. Like if I hear you lived along the equator you whole life I probably would ignore the fact that you don't know the seasons well. I guess these tests are not perfect but do shed some light.


Hah, I'm sure I actually am of sound mind. I know with the seasons thing I'm weird, and like I said I could probably figure it out if I actually thought about it.

Knowing today's date though is something I pretty much can never do unless I've had a reason to be aware of the date recently (some important event either happening soon or having just happened). I actually find it a little odd that other people seem to be so aware of it.

I could tell you the day of the week though, because that has more day to day relevance
