I wanted to post the Almost Live! sketch titled, “East Side Story,” which was about a member of the Factoria Trash (“We all get trashed in Fac-tor-i-a!”) falls for a girl from the Bellevue Squares (“When you’re a Square, you’re a Square all the way!”). But it doesn’t seem to be posted anywhere online. So, instead: [Seattle Summer](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=09tb8luF82c). I know the answer to the Seattlest question. But I’m not going to e-mail it in, because I’m not going to make it to trivia tonight. See you all next week, hopefully. Poison Ivy ---

We feel quizzy, Oh so quizzy, We feel quizzy and witty and bright And we pity any team that isn’t us, tonight. (I’m really bad at parodies. Hopefully, not a category) ---

Who’s in for tonight? David and Emily are hosting, substituting for Kevin who had to cancel. I will be there. ---

I’ll be there, too. ---

So who’s in tonight? I’ll be there but I’ll probably be a little late so you guys should start without me. ---
**Author:** ![Saltire](https://sea3.discourse-cdn.com/straightdope/user_avatar/boards.straightdope.com/saltire/32/553_2.png) [@Saltire](https://boards.straightdope.com/u/Saltire)\ **Post date:** [July 15, 2008, 3:47pm UTC](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/seattle-pub-trivia-08-with-a-vengeance/432754/209 "2008-07-15T15:47:50Z")
If things work out for me, I’ll have to run some errands after work. Then I’ll proceed to the OP. If things don’t work out, I’ll be at the OP early. Last week, I heard tonight’s quiz presenter say his questions “kick ass.” That kind of worries me, but I guess I want to hear it anyway. ---
**Author:** ![E.Thorp](https://avatars.discourse-cdn.com/v4/letter/e/898d66/32.png) [@E.Thorp](https://boards.straightdope.com/u/E.Thorp)\ **Post date:** [July 15, 2008, 3:54pm UTC](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/seattle-pub-trivia-08-with-a-vengeance/432754/210 "2008-07-15T15:54:46Z")
Do the presenter’s questions also “take names?” How about prisoners? Do they take prisoners? When I kick ass, I take no prisoners. Except the last time I kicked ass I inadvertently took some prisoners. Now I’ve got these prisoners sitting around my place, drinking my coffee and eating my food. Major hassle. Anyway, I’ll be there tonight. ---

I suspect his questions kick ass and chew bubblegum. But they’re all out of bubblegum. I’m paying a babysitter so I can be there tonight, so this better be worth it. ---

I’m a distinct maybe, depending on how long it takes to convince a beginning fencer that he really _really_ wants to fence a real weapon like saber. That, and convince my paranoid coach that he’s not being threatened by slights, real and imagined. Fencing…catch the excitement! ---

I’ll be there, and I’ll try to be a little earlier than usual, but no promises. Shouldn’t be a problem since the whole thing will start late, anyway (cite: **Cervaise** ’s post). ---

Incidentally, my good friend and occasional trivia attendee Ian is planning to be there tonight also. He have big brain. He help you strong. ---

I’ll be there. I’m unsure about **Lady Cheek** , but **E. Thorp** has threatened to reveal my diabolical plans to the world if I don’t show. Depending on the better half’s intentions, I’ll either be there relatively early or about 7:00 if I have to go home and get the car first. ---

Two teams! Two teams! And plenty of time to come up with a witty team name that references the _New Yorker_ Obama cover. ---

I’m sorry, didn’t I mention? I’m bringing team names with me; you’ll draw one out of a hat. ---

I’m not paying a sitter for that. Pass. ---

I’m a “maybe” and won’t know until around 7:30. At which point, I’ll either be speeding toward Ballard or not. ---

Is your real name Venus Velasquez? Oh wait, she was speeding away from Ballard. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/seattle-pub-trivia-08-with-a-vengeance/432754.md?page=10) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/seattle-pub-trivia-08-with-a-vengeance/432754.md?page=12)
