When the Master is away the Quizzers will play. Especially team Pio's Not My Real Dad.

This week was the quiz where you guys fucked with me a bunch and I loved every minute of it. With Pio gone I was at the helm with help scoring from Chaz

Things started out innocently enough with Round 1: Recently In Stuff. We started with a sports question but at least the answer Tim Tebow is a meme so that gives the geeks a leg up. Our audio Round 2 was titled Is There Something You're Trying to Tell Us? and featured Lola by the Kinks, I Kissed a Girl by Katy Perry, In the Navy by The Village People, and She Has a Girlfriend Now by Reel Big Fish.

Round 3 was Miscellaneous Concepts. Luckily for you quizzers they were all 50/50. Round 4 was my personal favorite: First Ladies I'd Like to Fuck. It's pronounced just like MILF but just with an added level of complexity. I have to say I am a pretty big fan of Mary Todd Lincoln. You gotta respect a woman who can support her husband not only while he is president but also while he is helping rid America of vampires.

This is about the time that team Back In The Game started getting noisy up in the balcony. They wanted to make sure we all knew, without question, that their name is a warning to all other teams.

For our visual round this week we had Do Gooders and you had to match them to their charitable organization. This was followed by a round on Muhammads and Alis. Booyakasha!

We rounded off the final two rounds with an audio round on ZooTV. We heard various TV shows with animals in the names including Spider-Man, Josie and the Pussycats, and The Monkees. The last round was, as always, Random Knowledge and I was glad to get the chance to say "Askewniverse" on the microphone.

In the end of all things we had a close match. There was a two team tie for first and a three team tie for second. The two top teams were the tits. We had Boobs, Interrupted and Ticking Time Boobs. The Sudden Death question was won by Boobs, Interrupted as they knew that the 9 letter P word I was looking for was Politburo and not Political.

Join us next week when things return to normal and Pio chains me to the scoring table.

Well, IT WAS, if you believe in most religious world creation myths or intelligent design. 

Last night we had a little fundraiser for the Crohn's and Colitis Foundation of America, doing a ton of raffles, selling beers, and collecting.  You should all feel really good about yourselves and use this small charitable measure as a means of making up for all of the terrible things you do which, in all honestly, overshadow these meager gestures by quite significant amounts.  Yet, as they say, the most believable lies are those we say to ourselves, so you keep going with that.  I mean, you have to sleep at night somehow.  Personally, I use scotch and crying.  Lots and lots of crying.  It really tuckers you out after the first hour or two.

Enough about charity, I want to talk about Scooby Doo.  I was never a big fan, another bumbling moron getting all the attention and fame for righting wrongs and having adventures when it was really a team effort (or, usually Velma figuring things out).  Scooby Doo is a lovable children's icon and I'm still not sure why.  I mean, beyond being a complete buffoon and possibly a stoner (although you shouldn't get dogs high, what kind of message are we sending here) he's also a complete coward.  Has Scooby Doo grown at all in the last thirty years or so?  Has he evolved?  Has he learned from all of these situations he has found himself in?  I really don't think he has, but I admit to being no expert.  I mean, isn't it a sign of insanity that a creature has not evolved after exposure to so many stimulii like this? If he were alive today, Darwin might slap Scooby Doo directly in the face.

Before I end my rant on Scooby Doo, I feel it necessary to share this link in which Scooby Doo crosses over with The Red Room from Twin Peaks and A Man From Another Place appears.  This little bit here might actually alleviate all of the negativity I have towards him. 

Don't forget, this Friday is the close of the Art in Video Games Exhibit at EMP!  We are having a huge video game event with lots of retro and rare gaming, horror gaming, and a variety of games up on the Skychurch screen, the largest indoor LED screen in the world!  Additionally, some of the Seahawks will be present to play some Madden 2013, panel discussions with gaming industry bigheads, and a talk by Steve Wiebe, who you might remember from KING OF KONG.

Jon (President of the "I Hate Jon Pio" Club)

Let's talk about me, finally.

Sean McNeil once said, "I don't know how you can be so arrogant yet hate yourself so much."  Thanks, Sean.  To answer the question you did not actually ask, I do not know how I pull it off but I do and it works.  That is, if you consider mind-boggling neurosis and crippling depression "working" but let us just go with it.

I live in Seattle yet I am originally from New Jersey.  That means I am a bastard.  Do not say "GTL" around me, I will cut you.  I may cut you anyway, since I have issues.  I got introduced to this whole pub quiz world when I went to a quiz at my current venue with two friends and a sociopathic girl without a soul.  After the soulless girl left my life I noticed that Geeks Who Drink was hiring in Seattle and I thought, "Oh my, this seems like a great place to feed my ravenous narcissim as well as fill the hole left by the soulless girl with lots of meaningless sex, perhaps finding some girl and trick her into loving me."  Well, it did not quite work out like that, but I am still trying. 

In the mean time, I really enjoy having everyone listen to everything I say and deconstructing them verbally when their actions do not please me.  Or verbally deconstructing them because I am bored.  Also drinking lots of whiskey.  I feel like my father.

Quiz happened, whatever.  You were there.  Or you weren't, and you don't care in which case I care not for you.

What I care about, is the fact that we learned that last night was Rebecca's last night as a server at The Loft.  She has decided to move on to bigger and better and more Mexican things at La Cocina Oaxaquena  We will all greatly miss her as she has been a fixture at the Ballard Loft for nearly as long as I have; serving as part of the duo of happy and joviality with Nicole to counter my bitter and caustic nature.  I guess you didn't realize the waitstaff of the Loft serve as your own proverbial Wall, the Night's Watch keeping the horrors of my being out of your warm bright existence.  What will happen to quiz without her?  Without Rebecca, will my darkness finally overtake the forces of Light and bring Winter to your lands, covering your beers and burgers in a blizzard of vitriol, narcissim, and loathing?

I guess only time will tell.  The only thing I know is that a bright red ruby in my crown of Quizmastery has fallen out and I will forever grieve its loss.

Best of luck to you gurrrrrrrl!

We gave away some passes to EMP Museum’s Bonus Round: Super Sport night happening on May 2 from 5-8pm last night. If you didn't win, you can still go!  During the event EMP will be using the massive screen in Sky Church to host competitions in iconic sports games. Also, the Rat City Rollergirls will also be onsite hosting their own competitions on Jam City Rollergirls and awarding prizes throughout the event. This is all in support of the current exhibit “The Art of Video Games” which leaves Seattle on May 12, 2013.  We'll also be doing a private Geeks Who Drink quiz at EMP at the same time!  Come on down!
