INTERESTING MOMENTS

When asked what they thought people around the world would most want self driving cars to avoid hitting, a surprising number of parents DIDN’T say children.

Before playing an audio clip where we were asking for a science fiction TV series, a historical figure, and the decade it was set, one team wanted to lock in their guess before hearing the clip. They got all three right. (We gave them a bonus point because DAMN that’s unlikely.)

One player was wearing this shirt when we asked a dilemma question about whether they would accept $200,000 to wear a dog cone for a year.

Our bonus round this week involved the Crufts dog show, and one of our venues had Crufts on TV throughout the quiz. Not sure how much it helped.

And The Smith Family are in the lead as we approach the end of our quarterly tournament, but they can still be caught.

Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 10 March 2024

Let’s be frank, beauty standards are weird.

Double eyelids, thigh gaps, canthal tilts (look it up, it’s stupid). You’ve probably heard of a few.

This week you’re going to use your team name to come up with a new and preferably ridiculous beauty standard.

Her pinky finger is way too long

Guys look better when their collarbones are more prominent

Earlobe implants are where it’s at

It’s way sexier when one nostril is bigger than the other

Any ridiculous beauty standards will get a bonus point.

Have an interesting week.
