Last week we asked a current events question about United Airlines who is claiming that a window seat doesn’t require a window.
That got us thinking that there are plenty of other similar claims that can be made.
So for your team name this week, we want you to come up with something else that doesn’t require what it sounds like it requires.

An exit row doesn’t require an exit
Ordering fish & chips doesn’t mean you get fish… or chips
A steering wheel doesn’t need to be able to steer
Boneless chicken wings contain bones
A cheeseburger is made of cheese, the burger part is extra
Any justifications for shortchanging people will get a bonus point.
Have an interesting week.
Here’s what you may have missed this week at iQ Trivia.

Anyone can get a trivia question wrong.
But recently one of our teams got a question REALLY wrong. Instead of the correct answer of the quirky Zooey Deschanel sitcom New Girl… they said Game of Thrones. Which is about as far from the plotline and aesthetic of New Girl as you can possibly get.
So for your team names this week, we want you to get a question as wrong as possible.
