Well, at least it's a move in the right direction. A synonym did me in on #5.

I guess I should change my signature, and start promoting this meta: Hungry Little Creature. I was going to sent it to people for testing but I dropped the ball on it.

(The dreaded arch! Worse than the dip!)
Mine was pretty awful I'm not going to even post it (but partly because I'm typing on a different device so it doesn't have my score). Frustrated at the last question. I took an educated guess but misspelled it. The second answer seemed to confirm it but as I thought it was wrong I guessed something else. The third question was just nuts as it *had* to be my first answer .... and then I saw I had misspelled it. (But then again I kind of cheated on question 2)
Okay.... I redid it this time avoiding my cheating on 2 but correcting my mispelling on 5 to get

I hadn't even noticed my symmetry, thanks for pointing that out @woozy. Sort of a 5-minute re-enactment of Flowers for Algernon 
And yours is yet another example of how picky this game is re: speeling.

Well that had to be the most depressing start. I was afraid for a moment I'd end up with a no score. (The pop culture and sparts have been killing me)

EDIT: Eek.... just realized you need to give the full name for number 3. That'd be very annoying.
