Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 27 August 2023

Uncategorized, ,

This week you’re going to think of a movie quote, and then ruin by changing a single letter.

Nobody puts baby in a cornea.

I’ve got a rad feeling about this.

E.T. phone homo.

You’re going to need a bigger moat.

I see deaf people.

With great mower comes great responsibility.

Stop trying to make retch happen. It’s not going to happen.

I’m the Kong of the world!

I will look for you, I will find you, and I will bill you.

Any radically changed movie quotes will get you a bonus point.

When we asked about The Blind Side, one team answered with “dog sh!t American football film that is all fake”, which we deemed close enough.

One team tried to help their neighbour with the answers to a question on basketball. Out of five answers they were given for free, they got two.

We played a song that was easy to belly dance to, and one player who happened to be at the bar broke into a belly dance. It was like an involuntary movement.

One player whose life did not overlap with Frank Sinatra at all immediately recognised his rendition of “That’s Life”, and sang along.

And when they forgot to do their homework on what SSRI stands for in anti-depressants, one team came up with Super Sad Rectification Immediately.
