Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 25 December 2022

Christmas has arrived, and this week we want to know about Christmas gifts.

Specifically, we want to know about the worst Christmas gift you can think of.

Socks for someone with no feet

A gift basket with all of the good items removed

Give your enemy’s son a drum set

A ludicrously small plot of land in Scotland that you don’t actually own and can’t actually use to claim the title of Lord or Lady

Any awful Christmas gift will get you a bonus point.

Have an interesting week.

This Week in iQ Trivia – 24 December 2022

Here’s what you may have missed this week at iQ Trivia.

WINNERS

If you won, here’s evidence just in case anyone doesn’t believe you.

JACKPOT

First place and the jackpot is always a good result.

TEAM NAMES

So many Christmas lyrics make no sense

He sees you when you’re sleeping? He’s violating your right to privacy.

Frosty the Snowman (you don’t say meaty the human)

Silent Night isn’t silent because people are singing

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire is how the fire alarm goes off

I’m dreaming of an all inclusive Christmas

I’m dreaming of a white Christmas sounds a bit racist

What the hell is “gay apparel” anyway?

Mistletoe is not consent

Santa Baby?  Santa is not your sugar daddy

Gravy made from just flour, salt, water, and tomato sauce would taste sh!t

10 drummers is 10 too many

He’s making a list that he couldn’t eve check once

Nobody wants figgy pudding

Who plays a drum for a newborn child?

TriviArt

Beautiful Gnocchi

Okonomiaki Orifice

Sad Milk

Riding Reindeer

Reindeer Cracker

INTERESTING MOMENTS

One of our teams assembled with one player having come to trivia on crutches, and another wearing a profoundly ugly Christmas sweater in Sydney in December.

One team won a prize, but realised they would rather choose the last place subject, so they swapped their prize for the subject. In a few weeks we will see if that transaction paid off.

And we asked a dental question, and one of our players who is actually a dentist was sweating on getting it right. Luckily he did, so we guess he gets to continue practicing dentistry.

See you next week.

Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 18 December 2022

Christmas is around the corner, and you’ve been hearing a lot of Christmas songs.

This week we’re going to be pulling them apart.

If your team name points out a Christmas song that doesn’t make sense, you’ll get a bonus point.

Last Christmas – You can’t give someone your heart. That’s not how hearts work.

All I Want for Christmas is you – Mariah Carey has suspiciously low standards.

Rudolf the Red Nosed Reindeer we’re not going to bully anymore only because he is now useful to us.

Giving your true love two turtle doves is a blatant violation of animal quarantine laws.

Pointing out a mistake in a Christmas song will get you a bonus point.

Have an interesting week.

One player lip synced the intro to Livin’ on a Prayer, but she only lip synced the guitar part.

What is VAR in soccer? Very Angry Referee. Well, yes, it could be that too.

When we asked about how many Tic Tacs it would take to equal the weight of an iPhone, a majority of teams could be seen “weighing” their phones. (But nobody had any Tic Tacs.)

See you next week.
