Interesting Question of the Day – 13 January 2017

What is the famous quote as said in the style of a woman in a meeting?

“I’m sorry, Mikhail, if I could? Didn’t mean to cut you off there. Can we agree that this wall maybe isn’t quite doing what it should be doing? Just looking at everything everyone’s been saying, it seems like we could consider removing it. Possibly. I don’t know, what does the room feel?”

The first new player to comment on the website with the correct answer wins a free drink at their next iQ Trivia show.

Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 11 December 2016

The new Star Wars film will be released shortly, but not everyone is happy about it.

A number of people are calling for a boycott of Star Wars because they believe it to be anti-Trump propaganda.

Of course, if the Star Wars franchise is a dig at Trump and his supporters, surely other films are too.

So this week we want you to use your team name to suggest other films Trump supporters should boycott.

Boycott Indiana Jones: It’s left wing propaganda.

Boycott The Sound of Music: Crooked Maria should have been in jail.

Boycott ET: He was an illegal alien.

Boycott The Lion King: Scar was a great leader.

Boycott Harry Potter: Voldemort was ridding the magic world of immigrants.

Boycott Lord of the Rings: Make Mordor Great Again.

Anything like the above examples will get you a bonus point.

Have an interesting week.

Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 4 December 2016

Fidel Castro died recently, and there were a variety of reactions.

One world leader who copped quite a bit of flak over his statement on the occasion was Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

“Fidel Castro was a larger than life leader who served his people for almost half a century. A legendary revolutionary and orator, Mr. Castro made significant improvements to the education and healthcare of his island nation.”

Having glossed over Castro’s history of imprisoning or murdering people who didn’t see things his way, the #trudeaueulogies hashtag was born.

For your team name this week, we want you to come up with your own Trudeauesque eulogy.
