Rules, in case you are new to this: **DON’T READ THE THREAD BEFORE YOU POST!** If no one else wants to host one, here goes. Post your responses to the questions. I’ll take the first 50. I will tabulate the results, declare the winner, post the scoreboard. There are 10 questions and a maximum of 1000 possible points. And in deference to **Hostile Dialect** , no questions about music that sny of us may have listened to in high school. A quick reminder the object of the game is to give an answer that you think will match the most number of other Doper’s answers. Format for your answers: You don’t need to repeat the questions, but please number the answers. If you don’t know an answer, guess! If you pass, you’re guaranteed to get zero points – but if you guess and someone else matches your answer, you’ll get points, whether the answer is “right” or not! Trivial Feud 2.0 1. Name a Doper catch-phrase that has been completely overused 2. Name one of Jerry’s girlfriends on _Seinfeld_: actor’s name, character’s name, or even a good description will do. 3. Other than Elizabeth II, name a reigning king or queen 4. Name something that someone would insure for a very large amount of money 5. Other than the News, name a feature/program on NPR 6. Name a fictional high school 7. Spirit of \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ 8. Name an ancient Greek playwright 9. Name a National Park 10. Name a god/goddess of love ---
