The correct answer is… option 7. Because…

7 possible answers. 7 is prime. There are 5 letters in prime. There are also 5 letters in seven. So the answer has to be greater than 5 and prime. Therefore 7 is the only possibility answer.

Well this is the beauty of this quiz - everybody wins!

Its almost magic really.

So - did you make a choice yet? You really should.

It is very important in the grand scheme of things, these are things that are very important but that you, as a mere citizen, should not worry about.

The powers that be want to know: When you stopped throwing the spam at the wall in your old kitchen, you know, the one where the gas stove helped you hide your farts behind burnt onions, did you let your cooking disasters linger like a sun dried doggy shit just like the founding fathers intended?

Confused? Please see " On new Grounds" by the prophet ScissorJack."
Chapter 8. When dogs bark and shake their tail.

Oh, I did. After careful thought and upon further reflection, I reached back over my shoulder and scratched that itchy spot. Then I leaned back in my easy chair and sighed in uttermost satisfaction.
