Daily Quiz anyone?

[easthammer]

"If you are stuck at home and bored like me. How about exercising the old grey cells? I have for a number of years run quiz nights and couple of times a year. I was due to do one tomorrow which is now cancelled So I have a bank of questions sitting in my computer's hard drive. They are quite eclectic in their nature. I am thinking I could put up a set of questions for which you write down your answers. After 30mins or so I will put up the answers. DO NOT POST YOUR ANSWERS. before I post the right answers. You mark your own answers and post your score. I will then record the scores and at the end of the ""lockdown"" we will see who is WHO's brainbox supreme. Obiviously no looking up the answers (you only cheat yourselves) Word of warning these won't be easy questions as they have been devised for teams of six. Forming teams on here might be too problematic. So I'll try to pick out the easier questions. Any interest?"

"Q20. I'm school last week there was some motivational speaker in who said did a quiz where they said mickey mouse was the first Disney character. I kindly pointed out at the end it was wrong. I know this as I have a t-shirt with ....... the lucky rabbit on. There's a yank clothing brand called lucky which used to do really cool t-shirts and I picked it up years back just thinking it was a cool shirt, then I found out about who it was. Not that anyone gives a fuck."

[zico]

"Well funnily enough I had done a bumper quiz for tomorrow with one of the subject matters below and saw a phrase several times but still wasn't sure when it appeared in the quiz below. I know Mickey doesn't have a tail around Disney World so that's probably why I went for that, although just looked that up and they say it's tucked into his trousers. Fascinating quiz."

[Mad Dog]

Aside from the new York and thumb questions they're all examples of something called the mandela effect. Where everyone is convinced of something only for it not to be true at all.

[zico]

"Ha ha ha, well it just shows I never pay attention as I got a mere four with questions 4, 10, 13 and 14 correct. Had ""Yes, I am your father"", so got the no Luke bit right, Just ""phone home"" for ET and can't believe the Mickey Mouse one! Plus I won't be going by the memory of Joaquim Phoenix in Gladiator anymore! Oh and so we don't have a repeat of last week. THANKS MAD DOG"
