History lesson
Seinfeld was born on April 29, 1954, in Brooklyn, New York, and grew up in the neighboring Long Island town of Massapequa. He was the middle child of three siblings and showed an early aptitude for comedy, entertaining his family and friends with jokes and impressions from a young age.
After graduating from high school, Seinfeld attended Queens College in New York City, where he initially studied communications before switching to theatre and film. During his time at Queens College, he began performing stand-up comedy at open mic nights in clubs and coffeehouses around the city. He quickly became a regular on the New York comedy circuit and was known for his clean, observational humor that focused on everyday life experiences.
Seinfeld's early career in stand-up comedy was not without its struggles. He often had to perform for little or no pay and was frequently rejected by talent agents and casting directors. However, he persevered and continued to hone his craft, developing a distinctive style and persona that would later become his trademark.
In the late 1970s and early 1980s, Seinfeld's career began to gain traction. He appeared on several television shows, including The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson, Late Night with David Letterman" and The Merv Griffin Show, which helped to increase his visibility and popularity. He also landed a small role in the 1980 film "Tenspeed and Brown Shoe," which marked his first foray into acting.
In 1981, Seinfeld was approached by NBC to develop a sitcom based on his stand-up comedy. The rest, as they say, is history.
Quiz Writer
Joselyn wasn’t too keen on multiple choice in high school. She vividly remembers the first biology exam she passed by only the skin of her teeth, which dragged her overall average down into the embarrassingly low 90s (she doesn’t want to talk about it). After swearing off any high school or university courses that required multiple choice tests, Joselyn managed to get an English degree by sweet-talking her professors into offering only essay-style exams. Needless to say, this did not exactly endear her to her peers. This rocky start smoothed out in time, though, and after tumbling down a black quiz hole one day while putting off job hunting, Joselyn realized her hatred of all things a-b-or-c had faded and she actually enjoyed dreaming up new ideas for questions and dangerously correct-sounding answers. You won’t find her quizzes an easy ride, but Joselyn just wants to make sure you’re really testing your knowledge.

Our personality quizzes are set up a little differently than your basic trivia quiz, but you’ve probably seen their kind around.

(Two plus two will always be four, but every Golden Girls character is equally awesome.)
So, stop stressing. Just click on the answer that suits you best, and enjoy the ride. These quizzes are just for fun but who knows – you might just learn something about yourself along the way!
