Too Much Vs. Not Enough

Gerry-oke

Welcome back to quiz, everyone! So much jocularity last night, despite my tendencies to stumble over my words and ramble on. We all know we do this; that’s me. We eventually get through the quiz though, don’t we? That should be enough for you! Anyway, let me give you two very good examples of the juxtaposition above. Too much? Chris Brown-Rihanna jokes, perhaps. However... they still make me laugh, which is why Team Went to the Music Store to Buy Chris Brown’s Greatest Hits, They Sold Me a Rihanna Album got the team name bonus point. Not enough? The game of Operation in our lives. I think the best anyone did on the final question of R8 was two out of the four possible answers. Team See? Even the IRS Hates Those Teabaggers even thought that “boner” was maybe one of the 100-point body parts. As I like to say, it is not... but it should be!

Here’s the recap!

Round 1: Duh! – “I don’t always play quiz but, when I do, I prefer ‘Geeks Who Drink... Stay geeky, my friends.” Dude’s not even Latino; that voice is dubbed. Damn shame, if you ask me. And I don’t care that you didn’t ask me!

Round 2: Howl at the Moon – Oh, Shakira. I feel like I could put you in a pet carrier and just take you wherever I go. If only...

Round 3: Real Subreddit or Some Shit We Made Up? – Hey, look, if you want to buy me things off of my Amazon wish list, all you have to do is let me know!

Round 4: Ride that Fence – I’m about to start watching “Game of Thrones” with a friend. Apparently, I won’t be very popular among my particular group of quizzers though...

Round 5: Turn Around, Bright Eyes – I never realized just how many subjects of movie posters refuse to look us in the eye. And the thing is we could probably come up with a lot more examples.

Round 6: The Satanic Versus – “Remember Alf? He’s BACK... in POG form!”

Round 7: (Video Round) Speed Art 2 – Even drawings of Taylor Swift look smug!

Round 8: Random Knowledge – Poor Peter O’Toole. Will he win an Oscar before he dies? Methinks not. And I mean a legitimate Oscar, not that honorary bullshit...

Winners’ Circle – When you’re hot, you’re hot; the team that nabbed first place at the beginning of the night ended up with it too. Not so much for third, though. Here are your winners!

Third place: Team Went to the Music Store... – “Rihanna... -anna, -anna, -anna...”

Second place: Team Team Teeming With Team – I hope you weren’t expecting me to put an extra “Team” in front of that team name; I refuse! ;)

First place: Team Generic Unimaginative Name – Good thing you guys are better at actually answering the question than coming up with good team names...

Your email bonus question winner this week was... Bryson! He got some high-quality, cork-backed cowgirl coasters! You guys should bring those in from now on and use them during quiz...

These links are made of cheese puffs too...

CHEERS!!!

I'd Like to Say I Apologize For My Love of Hockey...

Gerry-oke

FTS! I ain't soh-ree, eh! Look, I get it; most of you don’t like sports at all, let alone one as low on the totem pole as professional ice hockey but I gotta shout out my Anaheim Ducks. Admittedly, I started following them (and hockey in general) mostly because, as a teenager, I didn’t know anyone else that did and I felt it would satisfy the burning need in me to set me apart and make me “unique.” However, at this point, it’s a pretty strong addiction, one I feel will never be quelled and will probably affect other areas of my life. I may need help, guys. Anyway, information about last night’s game seeped into quiz a couple of times and, to those of you who couldn’t care less, which was most of you, I apologize. BTW, please note that it’s “couldn’t care less,” guys, not “could care less;” if you “could care less,” you still care. Think about it. Onward and upward towards the recap!

Round 1: Dial “M” for Manboobs – “His name is Robert Paulson...”

Round 2: Captain Planet’s iPod – Vanessa. Williams.

Round 3: All the News That’s Fit to Post – I got the sense that many of you were angry at yourselves for not coming up with some of the more seemingly obvious answers: Google News, Yahoo! News, etc. Don’t beat yourselves up too much about it, though...

Round 4: United Whatevers of Wherever – “Why so Syria...?” That was good stuff.

Round 5: When Diarrhea Can’t Wait for You to Leave the House – I’ve never had White Castle. Thoughts?

Round 6: Why Can’t We Be Friends? – I want to be part of the Vermillion Army. Sign me up, Charlie!

Round 7: (Video Round) In the Future, Everyone Will Be Andy Warhol for 15 Minutes – Team The Better Half, in lieu of knowing “Basquiat,” wrote down “Wham! The Musical!” Now, that’s one that I would watch...

Round 8: Random Knowledge – “Kriss Kross’ll make you... JUMP!!! JU... Aw, not so much...”

Winners’ Circle – So the standings were a little freaky tonight; at one point, there was a three-way tie for first, and heading into the last round there was another tie, although I can’t remember between whom. Anyway, it all got sorted out with Random Knowledge, so let’s shower our overachievers with accolades, shall we?

Third place: Team If You Can’t Curium, Barium – I liked that. And they duly got the team-name bonus point. Well done, kids.

Second place: Team The Existential High Five – Howie Mandel is probably one of the people who would love that.

First place: Team Dela-Fabulous! - *snap snap*

Your email bonus question winner this week was... Mike Giffin! He got himself a Dirty Girl notepad. I’d better see you with it next week! It’s perfect for jotting down ideas for quiz answers... or for all those guys’ phone numbers. ;)

These links got suspended for two games for a wicked elbow to the head:

Thanks again for coming out to quiz, guys, and for putting up with my hockey shenanigans, eh? Although, all things considered, it really wasn’t that bad. And a big shout-out to Megan for obliging me and putting up the last few minutes of the game up on my screen; I got to see the game-winner thanks to her! And, lastly, fuck Justin for getting in the way of my pictures... :D Until next week, LET’S GO, DUCKS and...

CHEERS!!!

Some Things Are Just Undeniable Truths...

Gerry-oke

Another night of quiz come and gone, this one being our May Day quiz! Nothing particularly noteworthy about the quiz itself in that respect but I came to realize some things last night that should be universally accepted as stone cold fact: 1) haters gon’ hate, even among the quizzer community. Team Cannibal Pilgrims can attest to this; 2) Taylor Swift’s “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together” is a truly horrendous song and no one should like it. I stress “should” because (and this is what truly bothers me) it’s arguably her biggest hit. Here my whole thing: I’m not averse to pop music. My iTunes attests to that. I’ve always contended that the fact that a song is popular doesn’t make it “bad.” But that one... fuck. While I’ll grant you that it’s musically catchy, the lyrics are so infantile and her fucking attitude throughout it is so violence-inducing that I really can’t stand listening to it. It makes me physically ill. Moving on...; 3) SJP is not attractive. I don’t care how much you guys groan but that doesn’t change the fact that she has a horseface. I’m tempted to say that her toothless version is an improvement. Ironic, isn’t it, that I start off with an adage about haters and I go on to spew some major vitriol on two celebrities. Your Quizmaster: a true dichotomy. Enough Hater-Ade! To the recap!

Round 1: It’s Like a Paper Website – Now, I don’t go ordering them all the time but I’ve had a cosmo or two in my day and you know what? They’re pretty damn good!

Round 2: Just GTFO – Now, see, that Three Days Grace song, “I Hate Everything About You,” could be said to be an awful pop rock song but I kinda dig that one.

Round 3: Sooner or Later: All Singing, All Dancing! – Don’t worry, guys; I gave Craig a real good piece of my mind for making me go longer in this round than was necessary. He’ll be buying me a drink the next time he comes in. I’m still working on how that benefits you guys...

Round 4: Cheese & Rice! – You know I love the “funny in lieu of correct” answers you guys turn in. In that vein, here are some ideas you guys had about the giant Brazilian Jesus: Team Cannibal Pilgrims – “Something Portuguese;” Team Gene Pool Circle Jerk – “Brazilian Jesus” (which, BTW, sounds painful); Team The Fine Young Cannibals of Jamestown – “El Grande Jesus”; and, my favorite, from Team She Ordered H2O... – “Concrete Christ.”

Round 5: To Some People, It’s a Turn-On – Speaking of Team She Ordered H2O... Ummmm, hey, guys? “Verga” is the Spanish word for “cock.” And I don’t mean “penis” or even “dick.” The most accurate interpretation is “cock,” so I doubt that’s Sofia’s last name. But it’d be awesome if it was...

Round 6: Eight Questions on Butt Sex that Will Only Hurt for a Minute – ...so just relax and let the “liwat” happen. Get the butter...

Round 7: (Video Round) Unnatural Births – Man, you guys see the little alien song and dance scene from “Spaceballs” one time and you demand to see it every subsequent time. Y’all greedy.

Round 8: Random Knowledge – Texas is big.

Winners’ Circle – Oh, those ties heading into R8 always make me nervous. Thankfully, by night’s end, it was all sussed out, as the Brits are wont to say. Here are your victors!

Third place: Team The Fine Young Cannibals of Jamestown – Hey, man, you gotta do what you gotta do. That is pretty gruesome, though, not gonna lie.

Second place: Team She Ordered H2O. He Ordered H2O Too and Died. – A lot of work went into that team name, and I appreciate chemical humor. That’s why they got the team name bonus point. Don’t drink hydrogen peroxide, kids...

First place: Team Cannibal Pilgrims – Pay no mind to the “boos,” guys. As we always used to say as kids, they’re just jealous.

My apologies to the lovely girl who won this week’s email bonus prize; I left your name at home. I feel terrible but I hope the GWD shot glass makes up for it!
