The Great Boxing Hump Day Quiz! 🐪

Welcome to the Great Hump Day Quiz!

We’re always trying to add more people to our quiz gang, so check out how to hide your answers, pop them in a post, and I’ll add you to the Scoreboard. :+1::slightly_smiling_face:

:exclamation:We also have an answer template you can copy and paste now too. :+1:

Where do the questions come from?

I found a mysterious old box of trivial pursuit, with even more trivial pursuits stuffed inside. It is a treasure trove of quiz questions, and all of them really old. :slightly_smiling_face: Perfect fodder for a Hump Day special. :+1:

Piecing together a few bits and bobs, there were three sets, and a couple of the instructions. One is a Genus Edition, dated 2001, and the other the 20th Anniversary one, 2004. There’s also another old style board and questions in there that looks/smells quite a bit older. That’s the box they’re all stuffed in, and that has ©1983 printed on it. No instructions, so not sure if that’s accurate. That one says it’s a Master Game Genus Edition.

(Edit: Now with an added sprinkling of more recent questions too :+1::slightly_smiling_face:)

So, there you go. It’s a bit random, but it should add to the fun. :slightly_smiling_face:

It’s a day late, but I thought I’d see if I could bash one out anyhoo. :slight_smile:

This one has been made on my laptop, which was an experience. It’s really odd using an actual computer rather than my phone. The forum looks a strange and unusual place. And even more so using a laptop. :slight_smile:

Definitely not going to miss the Boxing Hump Day Quiz!

💙 Geography
  1. :woman_shrugging:t2: Not a clue, I’ll go for one of the “New’s” as they must have liked us at some stage… New Hampshire?
  2. Surely not - False
  3. France was invaded by the Roman Empire in around 50BC (according to Asterix and Obelix) so I’m going to take a stab at Paris?
  4. It’s always stated that Greenland is but I don’t understand why… surely it should be North and Sounth America or Africa or at least Australia! I’ll go for Greenland as my quiz answer but why don’t bigger ones count?!
  5. Oh not a clue - us, a few in mainland Europe, a load in Africa’s top left bump… um 12?
💗 Entertainment
  1. :woman_shrugging:t2: Venice?
  2. Victoria Wood, this was on TV a couple of night’s ago… somewhat relevant to Lovehoney and a giggle:

Victoria Wood - Lets do it - The Ballad of Barry and Freda - An Audience With... - YouTube

  1. Stephen Fry?
  2. Derren Brown
  3. I have seen stills from it but I can’t remember… I don’t think green. Whichever one is Custard must be yellow. Let’s assume the Cat is Custard and say yellow?
💛 History
  1. :woman_shrugging:t2:
  2. I feel I should absolutely know this and yer it’s not coming to me.
  3. Alexandrina
  4. The Sphinx
  5. Labour? It was basically just the Liberals and the Torries before wasn’t it?
💩 Art and Literature
  1. An Albatross
  2. False - Guernica is by Picasso
  3. Don’t know
  4. The Rotten Romans (I had The Vile Victorians, The Terrible Tudors and Dark Knights and Dingy Castles when I was a kid)
  5. I did a bit of Latin at school but not much and the description doesn’t ring a bell.
💚 Science and Nature
  1. True
  2. Paperclip?
  3. Air Pressure
  4. :woman_shrugging:t2:
  5. “That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind” … that’s my answer but seems too obvious so slightly expecting QI sirens to go off.
🧡 Sprot and Leisure
  1. 10 pin bowling? Don’t know what the second two are though.
  2. Sprite?
  3. Since it’s been put incorrectly as “Soccer” somewhere in South America… Argentina?
  4. :woman_shrugging:t2: Nike?
  5. Juggling?

  • 50:50 between Sprite and 7UP, went the wrong way.

  • But the Rubarb and Custard one - I felt sure Custard would be yellow, I was just going with a toss up of whether Custard was the cat or not. How can you call a pink cat Custard? Custard is yellow - Someone is making Custard wrong!

Ooh, and thank you for my hedgehog!
