Is this a badly worded question

[silverfoxcc]

On a TV showthe question was

On NIrvana's 1991 album Nevermind there is a picture of a baby holding a US dollar bill of what value?

Surely the should have been holding a US banknote of what value?


Or am i being too pedantic



The answer is A dollar

[vixen1700]

Far more pedantic is the point that the baby isn't actually holding the bank note.

OP, it's not just the quiz question that has faults in this thread.

Do you agree?

That would less pedantic non? As the baby isnt by any means holding the note so the question is completely incorrect.

[SCEtoAUX]

Five dollars I think.

Yeah, probably.

Could be a deeper question... It's assumed you know its a dollar bill, ie one dollar, but how much is that particular dollar bill worth? Has it recently gone to auction or something?

...Ok probably not.

I bought mine in Saudi Arabia, it depended which censor had scrawled marker pen over the album cover as to whether there was any bank note at all.

I went for one with swimming trunks artfully drawn on.

Someone else got a full suit from the looks of it:

Although they ironically missed the spelling of "" (C U Next Tuesday) within the arms/legs of the skeleton on the cover of Incesticide!

The answer is A dollar

Isn't it similar to saying "which UK sterling bill of what value is orange (etc)"?

i.e. dollar or sterling etc is simply the currency and not the denomination??

More like...there is a picture of a baby holding a UK pound note of what value?

Nope, definitely not.

You are cool.

If you were actually pedantic and irritating about grammar, you would have checked your own.

Crap literacy rocks!
