I feel bad. I didn't realize that The Carpet Matches the Beard had chicken scratched "Dunkin Donuts," for the American Institute of Baking question in round 8. I swear it said Punkin,' And when I said it out loud, I didn't even mean to make it seem snarky. I was genuinely just saying "No, the answer isn't Punkin' Donuts." I mean it's true. There was no correct answer that read Punkin' Donuts.
And I'm glad I read it as Punkin' because, let's face it -- I hate donuts -- but I wouldn't turn down a punkin'. Who could. Why has no one ever created a brand called Punkin' Donuts I'll never know. The good news is the URL is free. And if you think I just looked it up, I did.
Moving foward, the absolute best wrong answer, aside from Punkin' Donuts, was one team putting "I Believe I Can Fly" in Round 2 as by Brian McKnight. I don't know what is better. The actual Brian McKnight song (1, you make my dream come true, 2, just wanna be with you, 3, girl it's plan to see, that you're the only one for me and 4, repeat steps 1-3, 5, make you fall in love with me, if ever I believe my work is done, then I start back at 1), or the thought of that this particular team was like "Who sings I Believe I Can Fly?" "I think it's Brian McKnight. Yeah! Yes, it's Brian."
Brian McKnight. Wow. What a guy!
See you next Thursday!

Yes. Yes, there was. The little feller looked like he had just walked in from some sort of after school practice. Coulda been soccer. Coulda been baseball. Shit, it coulda been lax. But this pip-squeek was right out of 5th grade (my best guess). A solid little man, who arrived with his entire family. Note that his entire family consisted of a mother -- who I could tell was ready to call my mother if I said anything out of line -- a not much older brother, who was probably at the really awkward, everything is embarrassing in front of my parents stage of life, and his father. His father.
His father, had an absolutely terrifying mustache. Some might call it authoritative. Whatever it was it was scary. I felt like no matter what I said, I was going to get in trouble and go to the principals office or something.
Anyway. It started with the second round, the title being "Dance Your Ass Off." I said butt. And then rump. Then I thought that rump was actually, probably worse than ass. Ugh.
Wait -- it really started when the Muffalos put "penis" as the answer to the first bonus question. And I of course said "No. The answer is not penis." The family of four perked up. I went in the bathroom and cried.
In other news, my boyfriend's dad was at the quiz (no mustache). What a night!
See you next Thursday!

Tonight, I said, "Hey Nicolo's, gimme a pizza pie with pepperoni, spinach and mushroom." And then, yadda yadda yadda....I all of a sudden had 13 people playing my quiz. Holy Scientology.
Speaking of Tony Wonder, no one got my reference to the movie Heavyweights. It was taking a few teams a whole buttload of time to bring up their answer sheets during the second half of the quiz, so as quizmaster, I exclaimed to them, "Lunch is cancelled due to lack of hustle. Deal with it." Literally crickets. I heard more crickets inside Nicolo's than I hear in my roommate's lizard tank right before he is about to eat them (the lizard is fat. And eats lots of crickets. The end).
