Here’s what you may have missed this week at iQ Trivia.
WINNERS
If you won, here’s evidence just in case anyone doesn’t believe you.
TEAM NAMES
What team names can you use that other can’t?
The pretentious Melburnians
Polish people are the best car thieves in the world
The pesky immigrants
I’m an immigrant and I’m stealing your job
A Jew, Kiwi, Indian, and Aussie walk into trivia…
Two skips & two wogs
Those tea drinking bastards
Those dumb male models
Huge bitch
IKEA furniture is sh!t
Auditors are incestuous
Lesbians make bad girlfriends
The Belgian colonial empire fans
Tall people are a pain in the neck
Yellow fever
Upper middle bogan
North shore snobs
A number of teams who went with “we suck at trivia”, and one went a step further, going with “we suck at trivia and self-deprecation.”
And there was only one team whose name we couldn’t read out in full, so we read it using some strategic rhyming… Team Bagpuss are Sucking Bunts.

INTERESTING MOMENTS
The Mexican classic La Bamba was sung by Bumblebee Man from The Simpsons.
When we asked about the ironic death of a jockey, one team guessed that he broke his leg and had to be put down.
An engineer was tasked by his teammates with getting a math bonus question, and he failed. Like by orders of magnitude he failed. But every other team failed by more.
Someone suggested that being a trivia host was a way of weaponising autism. As we’ve got multiple aspies hosting, we often look at it as monetising autism, which is a team name we have used while playing trivia.
And someone tried to convince us that a question on a Spice Girls song was unfair, because HE HAD NEVER HEARD OF THE SPICE GIRLS! No. We’re not buying that.
See you next week.
