Trivia Tuesday

~ Insulting a person's music (I was neither the insultee or the insulter - just FYI) is a sure fire way to make that person all "stabby ragey."  Also, "stabby ragey" is the perfect way to describe anger.

~ For some reason, sitting in the corner - as opposed to our regular seat that was otherwise occupied - is responsible for our utterly horrible showing this evening.  At least that's what we're telling ourselves.  It's either that, or the person writing the questions this week is a member of Mensa.

~ The Lost City of Atlantis was written about by Plato.  My fascination for fictional places that may or may not have been located in Greece comes through for me at last.  Of course, no one knew about this fascination I had so no one believed me...

~ The absolute only person that could have answered tonight's half time question on patents was a patent attorney.  Someone seriously went down a rabbit-hole on google this week when they were writing the questions.  It's either that or a patent attorney wrote the question, which I suppose is possible too...

~ When determining who the oldest soul at the table was, EVERYONE pointed at me.  I suppose I didn't help matters by belting out Tommy by the Who when it came on but not being able to name a single song by Jewel.

~ A category on Pirates led us to the Pirate Name generator.  For the least applicable pirate name ever, I give you mine: Pirate Agnes the Drunk.  I sound like some sort of Pub-crawler in England rather than a fierce Pirate.

~ There is a museum of sewers in Paris.  Gee, I wonder why that's never mentioned in the same breath as the Louvre?

~ Pandemonium is a word that Dante used to describe one of the circles of hell but is used today to describe madness.  Now I know I'm using the correct term when I describe Time Square - at any point in the day - as Pandemonium.
