Default The Buzzfeed Music Snob Quiz - Refined for 2016!
Tonight I stumbled upon Buzzfeed's latest iteration of the Music Snob Quiz which went live last Wednesday. I see previous versions have been shared on MB and the questions this time round are hilariously accurate.

Quote:
Ever heard of Robert Christgau?

Ever been anxious about bitrates?

Ever spent more than $100 on an LP? $500? $1000?

Ever gotten way into noise music?

Ever purchased a 33 1/3 book?

Ever been casually dismissive of the Beatles?
My score: 100% Snob. "Your snobbishness is terrifying."

See how you measure up!

50%

"You definitely like music, but you like other things too. You're normal."

Well...

Accurate enough.

I'll check that dictionary, but in the meantime I'm impressed - as is everyone else in the world - by your eloquence, obvious accomplishments and success, and the evidence of your blazingly high intelligence.

70% Music snob

You're a music snob by most standards, but thankfully you're not a total dick.

What!? how could this be? i barely knew some of the obscure artists they asked about and ive never been to coachella or any of those music festivals.

Here are the questions that gave me a good laugh.

Quote:
Have you ever complained about something being "overproduced"?

Have you ever made a remark to the effect of " Mtv doesn't even play videos anymore, man"?

Have you ever gotten way into "World music" even if the term makes you cringe?

Have you ever purchased a copy of the wire?

This is one of those polls that makes certain that every curious user has to click 5-10 web pages to learn whatever their score is. Not that there's anything wrong with that (not in the Seinfeld sense) but that's why I don't do those kinds of polls. That and I'm just a colossal web snob.

No, it's all on the one page.

Same for me. Sounds about right.

Another 70% here. Though I did accidentally hit "yes" to an answer, and was unable to change it. So I'm giving myself 69%.

70% as well.

"Have you ever cringed at an expensive vinyl reissue of something that can be found in, like, EVERY used record bin?"
