Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 21 May 2023

Last week we wondered how the world would be different if all the women in the world disappeared for a year.

This week we’re flipping that around, and imagining how the world wold be different if all men disappeared for a year.

Millions of jars remain unopened.

The Taliban stops being a problem.

No more dad jokes.

Aggression drops. Passive aggression rises.

Spiders become the dominant species on the planet.

Any speculations about a world without men for a year will get you a bonus point.

Have an interesting week.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

As soon as we asked people to name gold producing countries, we heard a voice from the back of the room asking “why?” Why? Well, asking questions is kind of what trivia is about, and you chose to come here. (At any rate, they wound up winning on their first try.)

One team found out why you should bring your kids to trivia, when their daughter immediately recognised Old Town Road by Lil Nas X when they had no idea.

Where do Vikings go when they die? Odin’s pool room apparently.

When we asked about four letter words said by trap shooters when they’re ready for a target, we got guesses of c*nt and f*ck. Which would certainly change the atmosphere at the shooting range.

And one player who bid 14 in the bonus round not only got zero, he said nothing and sat right back down when he realised he couldn’t name a single NRL player. It was one of the greatest moments of hubris we have ever seen.

See you next week.

Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 14 May 2023

We’re going to engage in some speculation this week.

Imagine that all the women in the world have disappeared, but they will be back in one year.

How will the world be different?

Every hospital would shut down

Mansplainers would have no idea what to do with themselves

Incels would find something else to complain about

The price of pillows would drop dramatically

Honestly, a lot of guys wouldn’t even notice

Any speculations about a world without women for a year will get you a bonus point.

Have an interesting week.
