Last night was great. Heck, even the most annoying people in the place - the table of 12 year olds and one (bad?) father sitting on the "stage" next to me, weren't even that bad. Sure, they insulted me when I didn't repeat the question a fourth time, but then again, I didn't give a shit since they took my paper and pencils and didn't turn anything in. They claimed it was too easy before they took off, but I think it was because all that axe body spray started messing with proper brain functions. Outside of those clowns though, we had an awesome quiz.

I Fucked The Whole Spanish National Team and Then They Lost to the USA
(I won't say who it is - but oh I know who it is)
We started off with some blood and gore. Okay, Anna Paquin isn't nekkid in every episode of True Blood, but the photos I've seen sure show it getting very close to that point. No one knew about Cormac McCarthy's novel Blood Meridian, and while a great writer - we don't need every single one of his books being made into movies. See Phillip K. Dick for reasons why. And, yes, you heard right: The film, The Re-Animator, does indeed have disembodied head tied up oral sex scenes.

Marlene's Favs tried their hardest, and in the end weren't the losers!
Round 2 was neverendings Whoas and Ahs. I Fucked the Whole Spanish Team got an awesome 15 points - only forgetting poor Lindsey Buckingham, but still being brainy with their NKOTB and Aphex Twin knowledge. Round Three was on rights and lefts. Way too many people forgot the book AND movie entitled My Left Foot, which would have keyed you off to writing down left as an answer.

My favorite part of Team Confusion is the dude on the right who totally looks like his team's name - maybe it's all those extra beers for just the three of you!!
Our fourth round was all about Mr. Clint Eastwood - the baddest badass in all the land. It seems that knowledge of him only extends to him being angry and badass - not badass with a monkey, not playing a badass with pink car, and also not when he plays a badass NatGeo photographer taking photos of bridges and ruining marriages (though that last badass isn't quite as strong as the ones before it).

These guys were less than five hours in to MJ's death before naming their team Rejects of Neverland Ranch, which they told me is the least offensive they could come up with.
Round five was on packages. The greatest packages of them all. Everyone did really well, with only Krang from ninja turtles, Scrooge McDuck and Wolverine being the ones to throw you guys off. I found that kind of strange because they also happen to be the ones with a brain in an abdomen, a duck standing on money and a x-men with yellow pants.

Our resident one man force of destruction, SAMSIK.
As we went into to round six, people got way more excited about fictional acronyms than I thought could be possible. I was sad that no one knew about TARDIS fully and that one bastard team even put down that Doctor Who sucks - a point I will counter with, "No, it does not." Not too many new about C.H.U.D. but I recommend you do, as you will secretly join a club where you can talk about people and their hideous CHUD children and they will be none the wiser.

Katrina For the Win!
Round seven only had a few that really threw people for a loop. SAMSIK got Beverly Hills 90215, which the internet tells me does not exist, but in fake tv land I will assume is like the shitty suburb of the show. Fantasy Island, Dallas and Boston Legal seemed to be the ones that really caught you guys off guard. All of that is okay though, because in the end we still have this to treasure.

I totally forgot to take a picture of The Indicisives and for the life of me can't remember what they look like, so I figured this picture should cover all my bases.
Finally we hit upon round 8. When I give you a real easy four point question - please do not ask if you can get a fifth point. All that happens is that I look like the mean guy for pointing out that you can do the same thing that everyone else in the room can do as well. No one in the bar at all knew about Oprah's first Book Club book nor Vince Vaughn's Clay Pigeons, which I suppose is fitting as both of those things suck. Finally we came to the end with two teams become supreme champions of Coaches, if only for just a week.
