I feel a bit bad because I guessed literally half today's questions...

Fucking movies.
Most annoying was the one I got wrong was the parable one. Fucking Christianity

I second-guessed myself on the one I got wrong, which would have given me the win today and (I think?) placed Snowy and Sly in a draw for the month.
Sorry Snowy.

Nope, Sly will take it by 1 point, plus has more wins so would still take it even if we tied.

Sly, not sure how you did that in 36 seconds.
52 seconds was definitely as quick as I could manage that.

I think it was just there were a few questions that came up in the not-too-distant past so I just clicked on the answer without reading the other responses.
They really love that sideburns question!

That sideburns question is a load of bollocks btw.
It comes from soldiers who used flintlock muskets that over time the ejecting powder would burn the side of their face. So they grew them to offer a bit of extra protection and to cover any existing burns and/or scars. Nothing to do with that arse Burnside as far as I'm concerned, who was a pishy general and is only remembered because he was a nice old fellow.
Not that I'm bothered or anything.

Time for a crusade? You can put in edits to questions for the mods to pick up.....

It was a sight to see.
I saw the two 5’s when I logged in, and went ahead with due trepidation...
I know that one, oh and that one, and that one...
Think I guessed two or threein all, all of which I knew some of the answers that were incorrect so not military grade guess-fu, but yeah was pleased with the clean sweep.
About time, been playing like a right duffer so far this month!

I also went through it thinking "oh, I know that one," but it turned out I didn't.

I can't believe I'm second with a score of 6.
I hadn't checked any scores before doing the quiz this morning and was sure I'd be bottom.
