	I'm not sure truth and honesty are really synonyms, since one is a characteristic of a person and the other a characteristic of a statement.

	@ThomGroentje: (Archived comments) Actually, umbrella comes from "umbel" or shadow, so it translates nicely as "little shadow". It is very similar to parasol. @TheLanimal: Is that how you really feel? Very well, more appropriate version of the word now in place.

	hiariej:	Apr 12th, 2012 at 16:03 GMT		7 points
	I also thought that an umbrella was intended for protection against rain, and a parasol against sun (as it is in Dutch, paraplu vs parasol). However, you're right rockgolf: apparently umbrella is an, em, umbrella term that covers both.

	A protagonist isn't always a hero, so those words definitely are not synonyms.

	VEC:	Apr 12th, 2012 at 16:22 GMT		24 points
	Apparently I wasn't thinking quite enough in the rock and roll mindset because I missed both drug references.

	buppyspek:	Apr 12th, 2012 at 16:30 GMT		26 points
	VEC, I also missed the drug references. Also, I don't believe "undead" and "alive" are synonyms. If the listed artist had been the Cranberries instead of Pearl Jam, then my answer of "zombie" would have been correct.

	I forgot how to spell that Aretha Franklin song.

	I found this game to be pleasantly difficult.

	sub:	Apr 12th, 2012 at 16:54 GMT		3 points
	Very good quiz, but the drug synonyms are kinda weak.

	Shiwacca:	Apr 12th, 2012 at 16:57 GMT		0 points
	war and battle are definitely not synonyms. a battle is one fight within a war. that should be changed.

	Tommy_C:	Apr 12th, 2012 at 17:02 GMT		16 points
	I think people have to remember that synonyms are not definitions, but words with similar meanings such as those one would find in a thesaurus, or in a crossword clue. Personally, I could have used another minute. I didn't have time to think about each one and give an answer.

	PumaATTACK:	Apr 12th, 2012 at 17:09 GMT		1 point
	I agree with Shiwacca, a battle makes up a war... It would be like calling a branch a synonym for a tree.

	LacsiraxAriscal:	Apr 12th, 2012 at 17:17 GMT		2 points
	War perhaps could be conflict? :)

	JLKeip:	Apr 12th, 2012 at 17:20 GMT		12 points
	Could I get a bonus for Babe on the Styx song? Perhaps that's sexist...

	KingRob:	Apr 12th, 2012 at 17:44 GMT		16 points
	Great quiz, people are nitpickers.

	torerodrizzle:	Apr 12th, 2012 at 17:46 GMT		1 point
	I really enjoyed the protagonists clue.

	Very good quiz except for undead.

	dsylv2010:	Apr 12th, 2012 at 21:29 GMT		10 points
	If your first thought for a synonym to "steer" is "cow", you might be from Texas.

	griffey5050:	Apr 12th, 2012 at 21:32 GMT		2 points
	@MSUKent: I enjoyed this one, thanks! The time is perfect if you know your music.

	limeade:	Apr 12th, 2012 at 21:43 GMT		1 point
	Most or all objections could be avoided by calling them "clues" instead of "synonyms", which are words with the same or nearly the same meaning. A "clue" can appropriately suggest or evoke a word without having the same meaning. ... I doubt many Texans think steers and cows are the same gender.

	Jamessir:	Apr 12th, 2012 at 21:51 GMT		9 points
	Please let's just call them all synonym-esque and stop whining... Although I probably typed "Zombie" 6 times for "Undead".

	Mrs_Bungle:	Apr 12th, 2012 at 22:28 GMT		9 points
	I can't believe how many people are bitching about this, I thought it was great!! Although now I've got "Under my parasol, sol, sol, eh, eh, eh" running through my head :P

	tstenz:	Apr 13th, 2012 at 00:41 GMT		0 points
	I hate to jump on the whiny Willy bandwagon, but I gotta agree that undead and alive are nowhere near synonyms. In fact, look up "undead" on dictionary.com and the first three words are "no longer alive." Other than that, great quiz.

	Would holiday not be a better synonym than trip, for vacation, as no context can be given??

	Zak6009: but they cover similar ground, and the song does say "I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo" I lol'd at "undead" because I knew what you meant - but it's true, undead does not mean "not dead"

	GAThrawn:	Apr 13th, 2012 at 15:58 GMT		2 points
	I was actually listening to "Uprising" at the time I took this quiz, lol.

	piroteknix:	Apr 14th, 2012 at 00:13 GMT		4 points
	I, for one, would love to hear the Velvet Underground perform "Slap."

	ducky2:	May 5th, 2012 at 01:56 GMT		1 point
	@buppyspek also tried "zombie" for undead. heehee :)

	frank_stallone1:	Jun 11th, 2012 at 05:07 GMT		2 points
	Uno is not a synonym for one, it is just the same word in a different language.
