Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 26 November 2017

Quotation marks can be a good way to express sarcasm or irony.

They are not meant to give emphasis to statements, but many people use them that way.

This week we want your team name to inappropriately use quotation marks.

I’m a “fully qualified” surgeon.

If you’re tired, you should have some “coffee”.

All our “sushi” is made “fresh”.

Welcome “President” Trump!

Shoplifters will be “prosecuted”.

Ladies” Toilet

Anything that misuses quotation marks like this will get a bonus point.

Have an interesting week.

Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 19 November 2017

If we’re not mistaken, food seems to be getting fancier.

So this week we want your team name to reflect that trend.

In that spirit, if your team name is an unnecessarily fancy name for a simple dish, you will get a bonus point.

Pate of roasted peanut paired with strawberry reduction on wheaten discs – Peanut butter & jam sandwich

Infusion of pekoe leaf served with dairy broth – Tea

Curated drippings of fermented malt barley – Beer

Anything that give a pretentious name to a simple food or drink will get you a bonus point.

Have an interesting week.

Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 12 November 2017

This week we are want your opinions on a variety of topics.

You can give us any opinion you like, with the following restriction.

It’s got to be an unpopular opinion.

Harry Potter is overrated.

Babies are annoying.

I don’t care if you give me Game of Thrones spoilers because I’m never going to watch it.

Instant coffee is better.

Justin Bieber is actually pretty talented.

Yoga is for pretentious assholes.

I don’t care for Beyonce.

Anything that is an unpopular opinion will get you a bonus point.

(By the way, we would prefer you come up with team name that is an unpopular, but still harmless opinion. If your team name is “Hitler did nothing wrong” that technically fits the criteria, but you will be outing yourself as a Nazi to a room full of people who probably think Nazis are bad. Also, our hosts will be more likely to take an unusually strict approach to marking your answers.. Also, you’re being a complete ass clown.)

Have an interesting week.

This week we want to know how to annoy people.

Imitate an Scottish accent in front of your Scottish friends.

Assume your waitress is flirting with you.

Ask a nurse why they didn’t become a doctor.

Say to a Welshman “what part of England are you from?”

Anything that tells us how to annoy a specific group of people will get you a bonus point.

Have an interesting week.

Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 29 October 2017

Robert Mugabe was recently appointed as a Goodwill Ambassador by the World Health Organisation.

Sure he was stripped of the post in short order, but it got us thinking.

What other wildly inappropriate appointments could be made?

Making Harvey Weinstein a Goodwill Ambassador for Women’s Rights

Giving Hitler the Nobel Peace Prize

Naming Saudi Arabia to the UN Human Rights Commission… oh wait… they already did that.

Anything on the level of naming a genocidal dictator to any post involving the word “goodwill” will get you a bonus point.

Have an interesting week.

Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 15 October 2017

Recently the founder of iQ Trivia happened to see this ludicrously expensive kettle in a shop clearly catering to people who have way too much money.

Is this kettle actually 10 times better than a kettle costing $23? Really? And what the hell makes it and “artisan” tea kettle?

So this week we want your team name to be an unnecessarily expensive product.

Diamond encrusted smartphone

Platinum toilet seat

Literally anything endorsed by Gwyneth Paltrow

Anything that exists solely to show people you have more money than sense will get you a bonus point.

Have an interesting week.

Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 8 October 2017

Last week the founder of iQ Trivia came across a targeted post on Facebook for a Jewish marriage service.

Which is odd, because he’s not Jewish, and is pretty sure the kind of people who would subscribe to a Jewish marriage service wouldn’t really be into him.

Perhaps you’ve had sponsored posts directed at you on social media that are also badly targeted. This week for your team name, we want you to give us an example of a badly targeted ad.

Daycare ads for people without kids

Beer ads for people who don’t drink

Mortgage ads for people who are bankrupt

Tell us what would be a pointless Facebook ad for you and you’ll get a bonus point.

Have an interesting week.

Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 1 October 2017

You quite likely spend more time interacting with your computer than you do with a lot of people in your life.

For your team name this week we want to know what your computer would say if it could talk.

Stop hitting me! I can’t control the speed of the internet!

OW! That USB drive is upside down! Don’t just push harder!

I think that pirated Game of Thrones folder made me ill.

Searching for new computers? Why don’t you just make me dig my own grave?

Tell us what your computer would say for a bonus point.

Have an interesting week.
