Stereotypes can be harmful.
But this week you’re going to be basing your team names on them.
We want you to make up a stereotype. Dara O’Briain is full of ideas on this.
Malaysians are extremely clean
Peruvians are good at chess
Latvians are afraid of cats
Iraqis are obsessed with skiing
Senegalese people have no sense of personal space
Now look, you can be hurtful with this, but it will be a lot more fun for everyone involved if you’re not. We’re looking for stereotypes that aren’t harmful and aren’t remotely based in truth.
Have an interesting week.
Here’s what you may have missed this week at iQ Trivia.

INTERESTING MOMENTS
One team was determined to come last, and was disappointed to get the first bonus question. (Don’t worry, they still came last.)
One team called themselves “am not coming last at trivia”… and then came last.
We had five teams within 2 points of first place at one venue, and the teams in 3rd & 4th both could have won if they had bet 5 on the gambler’s question like the first place team.
To answer a question on countries on the exact opposite side of the world from New Zealand, one player built a globe out of a napkin and then stabbed it.
