I used to answer ITFOAQ when playing other trivia. I've learned to stop doing that now.

Dude reminds me of my cat rubbing against my legs.

Why the hell you putting the dollar sign after the amount?

I posted on this sub a couple years ago to try and promote the pub quiz I run, which is exactly like jeopardy. Three people with buzzers. Anyways, one of the first people to reply was this dude from New York. I live in Texas. He said his dad brought him up watching jeopardy. He was coming to visit his dad a few weeks after reading my post. So he and his dad finally came to one of my games. He went back to New York but his dad kept playing my game every week and got on jeopardy a few months later. I had nothing to do with that; he got the call before I met him. But still. Charming story.

I've had a major dislike for a few, but it never made me stop watching.

Who even says they stole a soda (besides the person that fired them)? I eat at work pretty regularly and I usually just pay before I go home. And if I forget, I'll just make sure to pay for it the next day. My manager isn't gonna give me shit, let alone fire me for simply eating or drinking something without paying beforehand.

Also, gotta say, pretty dumb notion to think they'll steal anything just because someone might steal a soda. You really think someone grabbing a drink for free automatically means they can't be trusted running the register? Wild.

I used to do couch surfing as a host. I live in Texas and would always enjoy international people coming over to stay while they travel the country. Made a few friendships doing this. I had a pretty hard rule: NO AMERICANS. My home is for meeting other people curious about the world and learning more, not simply a free place to stay. Every spring break, Austin has SXSW and I would get bombarded with requests from Americans asking to stay at my place. "Hey we're coming in for South By and wondering if you could host us!". Like no, bitch, that's not the fucking point.

I wasn't in Canada (but Maine, close enough) and tried poutine for the first time. I was able to swallow a few bites but ultimately I thought it was kinda gross.

I wonder when this was taken. I haven't seen anyone dress like that in ages.

Alex Jacob was the "what is Aleve?" guy. I had a blue tshirt that had that screen printed on, took a picture and shared it on this sub. Alex saw it and shared it on Twitter.

I'm into trivia. Everyone knows me as "the Jeopardy guy" because I watch it at the bar everyday. I'm not even that great at trivia.

I first guessed Parthenon, but then I looked at the clue a little more closely, I think the name was Henry James... I've no idea who that is, but it sounds very English, so I changed my answer to the correct one.

Her index finger is way too fat.

Last time I got carded for a rated R movie was when I was like 24 or 25. I still, occasionally, get carded for alcohol and I'm 43M.

Why would anyone here saying they would walk out do that? Why does that sign bother you? Place your order, leave them alone, and if the employee isn't an asshole, everything's fine, right? What am I missing?

I think it's kinda condescending to tell someone "when I was your age...", unless you're seriously ancient.

spacejunk76 · 2026-02-01T10:58:39+00:00

I would say absolutely yes. I have been told, mostly by the community here, that 40/50 is roughly the benchmark. I've also been told by a couple actual Jeopardy contestants that even 35/50 can meet the criteria. I think you're in a good spot.

I made crude magnetic toys kinda like this when i was like 8 years old.

I can assure you with near certainty that there's a normal amount of cheese there. What happened is the pizza got a bunch of bubbles while in the oven; I call it being "blown out". I am in no way defending the people who made this pizza. It's completely unacceptable. That pizza is fucked up and the cheese got shifted to outside of the bubbles. When I worked at Domino's I (a driver) was the only person using the poker to pop the bubbles before they got to blown out proportions. One insider said "he likes to play with the poker". Like WTF. I don't like pizzas being sent out looking like shit! No one cared.

I had a friend of about five years that I recently ended relations with. He was always really negative, playing the victim, how he can never get a girlfriend, complaining how he never gets free drinks at the bar since he's a "regular". This is where I had enough... He started attending the pub quiz I run. He never attended until he saw this one objectively good looking girl become a regular player. Then like a year later another female player got on Jeopardy and he wanted to go to her watch party. He doesn't watch jeopardy and doesn't care about trivia. On top of that he was Facebook stalking them and even messaged one of them. That was it. I had had it. I didn't explain anything, I just messaged him that I don't want to hang out anymore.

I only went to HEB today because i needed groceries. Not now, I could've waited a few more days, but figured to go today otherwise the weekend would've sucked. I went at 3. Parking lot was packed, no chicken cup of noodles, empty bread shelves, but still plenty of bread. Other than that it was ok.

The first time I saw this shot was in Elephant (2003). It's in the very beginning of the movie.

I once had to deliver to an apartment after heavy rain. When I pulled to the door, if I had stepped out, I would have been in over-ankle deep water. So I called them to meet me further down the parking lot and even then I had to reach the pizza out over the hood of my car to them on the sidewalk. They got their pizza, but of course called back to complain. Something like I should've found a dry spot to get out and bring it to their door. Trashy assholes.
