He really does have a 'funny' sense of humor, in both senses of the word

We recently had a test in Spanish Language Culture. The class is over now, as it is a semester class (AHH!!! NOO!!! Mr. Stibitz was a good 40% of my SFAOOCQ section!!! Well, I'll still see him around,) and we got the test back yesterday. He told me I couldn't write anything about it till we got it back, but now that there's no potential for "academic malpractice," (Mr. IB) I have the green light. He even printed me off a blank copy of the parts I wanted. Thanks Mr. Stibitz:)

Anyway, Mr. Stibitz has this funny way of making a lot of the questions jokes, but putting in just enough actual questions that you still need to study. We've been studying the Spanish Civil War, and the cover of the test looked like this (because of the unfortunate shape of some of these pics, especially the second one, I recommend click-to-enlarge-ing):


No one in the class had ever seen this picture before, but we didn't think much of it. The first question on the test was as follows:


Hey! He gave us the answer! Sweet... So we flipped back to the cover, checked the dates, and promptly answered A. However, when our eyes proceeded to the next question:


Shoot!

Well the picture looks like the death of a militiaman...but...could the dates be wrong? Or not? Or...

So we played Mr. Stibitz's mind game for a while, but eventually decided to leave the answer to 1 as A. I say 'we' because he said that not a single person in the class got question 1 wrong. Thank Harvey.
