Facebook Make news feed run off of a friends list.

I'm really tired of having annoying people and their stupid news feed articles show up in my feed. I don't care what literary time period they are, nor which twilight character they are.
I created several friend lists, a "real friends" and a few lists that include everyone else. Is there a way I can have ONLY my "real friends" list show up in my news feed? The people on this list aren't stupid, and won't fill out this quizzes.

(Bonus: I've been told it's impossible, but if you know how to block EVERY application all at once, I'd be madly in your debt.)

You can hide everybody who do quizzes from your News Feed, but they will be hidden from the News Feed regardless of which list you have selected.

Or you can hide apps, one by one.. You will see the quiz once.. And it will never be able to bother you again ;)

The bonus is unfortunately not possible.. Good luck!

While the bonus IS currently impossible, there is an option for the action in question.
Luckily for you, the new Facebook automatically made a feed for your "Real Friends" list.
On the left side of your regular news feed (or "Home" screen), you will see a list, the first item of which says "News Feed".
Underneath that should be up to 2 of your lists, then a couple of core Facebook apps (maybe Photos and Links).  Click "More" that's underneath that to see the rest of your lists, the other Facebook Apps you use, and to be able to reorder that list.
** An additional tidbit:  If none of these views cuts it for you, in the expanded list you can also choose to "Create New List".  Choose the people / pages you want to see in this list, and it will make it for you
