Popular Post Brumerican Posted February 24, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 24, 2020 The Chase tonight was pure gold. A lady dressed as a minion chose to go for minus £5k , gets through , stays quiet all through the final team chase and finally persuades her team to answer the question "What's the UK's most venomous native SPIDER? " with the answer "Daddy Long Legs" costing the team a £39k win on a pushback.. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisp65 Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 Ha! I think I’ve just realised I’m not even trying to answer any this week. I’m just sort of letting it wash over me and laughing every time they say Corpus Christi Wang. My missus absolutely despairs of me and my 9 year old’s sense of humour. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seat68 Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 Wang is mind-blowing. Him against the American from last week will be phenomenal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same with Only Connect Sometimes I'm happy if I can even guess the field or subject they're talking about, let alone answering the question 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjmooney Posted February 25, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted February 25, 2020 Our pub quiz is on a Monday, so Only Connect and University Challenge are the perfect warm-up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's weird because I usually like her, but on that she's painfully unfunny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davkaus Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 I've had a couple of shit weeks at work, have complained an awful lot and ensured management know how **** everything is. Booked the odd half day just to chill out and reset before I explode in the office. That's not what's cheered me up. The look on my boss's face when he accepts the holiday request but is clearly shitting himself it's for a job interview, on the other hand... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
