Actually, I think that was 1,000 post trivia, but still. Mine isn’t as hard as the Bricker Challenge or any of that stuff, because, frankly, I don’t know as much stuff as he does.
Still, if you don’t google it, it might be tricky.
I’m going to mark a few questions with an A or a B. “A” means I’d like US Dopers to refrain from answering that one. “B” means I’d like Brit Dopers to skip that one. Makes it easier for me to make stuff hard, see.
Anyway, here we go:
1B. Complete the acronym: S.M.A._.I.B.B.F.B.
What is Rebel Radio’s callsign in Airheads ?
What does Hong Kong mean?
Queens, N.Y. is named for…?
The Newcastle Brown Ale logo bears an instruction on it. What is it?
Who is Qaboos (or Qabus) and what happened to his dad?
In what game (and on which console) would you originally have found the Wild Goose?
Who holds the NFL record for career passer rating and career passing accuracy (>500 attempts)?
What record (since broken) did Bryan Robson set against France in 1982?
For what is Reinhold Messner famous?
He’s an anagram of genuine class.
Who wrote the unforgettable Drunk at Dennys’ ?
If I mentioned the name Chris DeGarmo, you would respond that he should never have left _________.
Detroit rappers in makeup all agree that _______ is the best soda EVER.
(ridiculously hard) Where is the Papa John’s store with the largest annual sales in the United States?
That should be enough for you guys for a couple hours. I’m off to sign papers- I’m buying a Ramada today.
Well, not really; one is being purchased in my name. Still, sounds kinda fun.
I figure if I did a good job, nobody will be able to answer all the questions by themselves. Feel free to post answers to as many or as few questions as you like.
Oh, and I love you too. A thread about this question to be created later, I think.
I wouldn’t have given you #10 on the basis of the first part- not exactly factually provable. However, Messner did climb Everest without oxygen; he did it with Peter Habeler, and they are both credited with the first unassisted ascent. I was actually looking for first solo ascent, which was also him, but you get two points anyway.
Queensryche. Since neither the band nor DeGarmo has done anything great since the breech, I think it’s time for them to join forces again. Do you hear me Geoff? Do you hear me Chris? Now play nice, boys, and get me some new music.
And my WAG on this one is that it’s on a college campus. Checking out your profile, I’d guess on or around the campus at UCF. (The Pizza Hut with the highest sales per square foot was on campus at my alma mater, so I’m extrapolating)
2 points. The rappers in question are the Insane Clown Posse, who mention Faygo in at least a dozen songs and album sleeves. Personally, I hate the stuff.
It isn’t actually on campus, although it is called “Papa John’s UCF”. Oddly enough, most of its business comes from a vast series of subdivisions in the other direction called Waterford Lakes. PJ’s UCF sits astride the intersection of Alafaya and Colonial like… well, like a pizza place on the corner.
