Just for the record, I taught preparation for the GED in California for eleven years to inmates at a jail in San Bernardino County and I can tell you that answers that require a test taker to give a one-line answer don't exist. All answers in all subjects are multiple-choice and answered on computer answer sheets. The only time a GED test taker writes something down is when he or she writes an essay of about 200 - 500 words answering one of the standard GED questions.

Several of those jokes trace back to 2005 or earlier. So they're almost definitely not a list of actual answers on a 2011 GED. Basically, someone just found a bunch of funny answers that kids of varying ages may or may not have ever given and gave them an interesting, but totally false, backstory.

Funny stuff fer sure.! What's even funnier is that these are answers given by Honor Roll students ; )

Like most humor if there isn't a grain of truth in it, it isn't funny, this is funny because the answers are imaginative and have a grain of truth in them.
Thanks for the laugh.
