The only thing a test does is show how good you are at that test at that moment.
If you suddenly submitted everyone to a test they had succeeded at, a good number of people would fail, because they forgot how to be good at that test.

Not the only thing.

Largely it's a test of memory. I found that GCSE and A-Level tests focused on cramming information in but not cultivating understanding. It really hurt my studies.

It's just like
"I'm sorry I don't have perfect recall over every single thing I've learned since the day I was born JANET!"

I don't know who Janet is, it just seemed like the appropriate thing to put at the end of that

I’m now curious why you chose to put a name at the end also why Janet? Why not another name? Why not a number? A letter? A sound? I don’t know where I was going with this sentence question.

Guys he just attacked Janet.

Let us hope neither she nor Owlga hear of this despicable calumny.

We ascribe to utilitarianism here. The greatest happiness for the greatest number. We need no hedonistic calculus, only the non-arbitrary judgement of Janet. It is she who gives happiness a home, and she who can take it away.

We will suffer no attack on the happy-master. Our morality does not allow it.

I remember who Janet is!

Down at the bottom of the ocean. Beneath tons of brine which would crush you down. Not into broken and splintered flesh, but into thin soup. Into just more of the sea water. Where things live that aren't so different from you, but you will never live to touch them and they will never live to touch you.

I only vaguely recall that incident. I recall that... someone got offended by something? Tbh IIRC the whole thing seemed silly to me but I wasnt directly involved and thus I didn't really give a flying duck about it

I have never seen that movie tbh, I was just half remembering a quote from somewhere else where the guy yelled something else loudly, and my brain supplied Janet when it couldn't think of the right word, I'm not even sure it WAS a word

Well, we could put two and two together and write a book: "The Shit that Hans and Max Did: You Won't Believe This Shit."

It kinda sounds like it should have been 'Lena' or 'Mother', as berated by Archer.

Your sister sounds wise I'm afraid to say. It's always annoying when one's siblings sound wise.

Power was out at work today when I got there. A power line or something went down, and that also caused a problem with our circuit breakers. Didn't get power back until 11:15. In the meantime, the manager had us picking trash up throughout the parking lot and surrounding woodsey area. The only protective gear we were given wer thin, plastic examination gloves, to dig for trash in elbow-deep underbrush with thorns.
