I apologize for both the lateness and brevity of this trivia update. I am currently swamped with a pile of school work almost as disgusting as PHDTS. Any Travisonian who would like to put something here is welcome to do so.
Umm yeah, PHDTS sucks.

Week 8 Season 1 2009
Members in Attendance: Travis, Andrea, Steve-B, Trivia-James, Steve-Know, Cindy, The Original Craig T. Nelson.
Pitchers Won: 3 Boo Yeah
Round 1
We began the night with a win. We got 9 points. Other teams who matter got:
8 Wes
7 Bi-Polar Bears (honourable)
7 Hitler (not so honourable)
Some other insignificant team actually tied us, but they had 12 players, so we won. The two greatest words in the English language: Dee Fault! Dee Fault! Dee Fault!
Yay, we're +2 against Hitler again.
I made a special set of gauntlets to mark the occasion.
Round 2
Once again we had a tie at 9.5 points. The tie breaker song was "Piece of Shit Car" by Adam Sandler. Well F that S.
Anyways, PHDTS who probably all drive piece of shit cars knew the answer first. They probably also do funny things with shampoo bottles if you know what I'm saying.
Ok, here's my biggest shit storm complaint of the night. PHDTS cheated all F'ing night again. They had 9 players, and I know that I'm be a picky dick. Here's the thing: it's a tight race. I know that they are going to say "He sat back when the questions were being asked." (which is only true for earlier rounds) Here's the thing, I watched that guy chime in numerous times tonight. Unless he was telling jokes that were so funny every one nodded instead of laughing, he was answering questions. But wait there's more, this new guy was using his cell phone too. Awesome.
I leave it to Drew to do something about this. However Drew had his hands full tonight (we'll get to the best part of the night in a bit).
Round 3
Here's a little on house fun. We had a pretty good fight on our team about which continent was the only one that did not have a desert. Craig and Jim were pretty sure that it was Antarctica, and Buchan and Andrea were hard set on Europe. Well Grew said it was Europe. But wait there's this. That's right, there's a desert in Europe as well. I knew there was a reason I didn't answer. Deep down I knew that they were both wrong.....
The highlight of this round had to be Craig showing us all his bulge. He hiked up his pants and I took this photo:
Craig got us our victory beer for the round with his pants in this layout. Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that we won another round boohyashacka. In fact, we gained another 2 points on Hitler. Good stuff.
While Craig was getting the beer, Drew decided to pants him. I knew Drew was excited to have Craig back, but I thought he would exhibit better self control.
Quote: "I've got a semi." Rev. Jim (about our performance, not about the pantsing or Craig's bulge-show)
Round 4 The Theme Round
Tonight's theme was national anthems. Well we knew all but one of them. Ok, well we made correct educated guesses on all but one of them. We didn't know the chinese national anthem. I know the Japanese one. (Sorry for exposing you to that).
Hitler used their cell phone's on Oh Canada.
Now once again for the night, we had a tie with Hitler (who had 9 players). We sent up Steve B. for the tie breaker. Hitler launched a different weapon. Here's how the battle looked:
Steve did ok, but Hitler triumphed. Schizen.
Quotes
"To be honest, screwing in the bathroom is not about romance." Steve-know.
"To be honest, do you ever get so horny at trivia that you have to go boff in the bathroom?" Trivia-James
Our startling revelation this round (keeping with the bathroom theme), was that they should put the handicap urinal in the middle. Thus the rule of 1-3-5... will be better obeyed. (I bet the ladies are laughing at this bit).
Round 5
A "Friends" theme round.
Ok, I really appreciate all of the work that Grew and Drill put into trivia. Going the extra distance with common-themed rounds is a great idea. Here's the problem. Friends is arguably the worst piece of shit ever to make it on television. I would rather watch Rita MacNeil jump naked on a trampoline than be forced to watch (or listen to) one second of the disgusting drecch. Here's a computer script that writes an episode of Friends:
t=0
{
Do { output: "Line" //not funny
output: "HAHAHAHA" //shitty brainless laugh track
}
While: {t<22}
t=t+1
}
Here's what it produces:
line
HAHAHAHA
line
HAHAHAHA
(repeat 20 more times)
There you go, each line takes one minute, and in total you've wasted a half hour of your life (once the commercials are blended in).
There. I'm glad I got that off my chest.
Round 6
Alexis was absent tonight (we didn't get out carried over beer). I fear that my comment about her beaks a few weeks ago may have mortally wounded her. Someone else did the beak. And then things got really interesting.
We had a lady who was new at trivia tonight. She was not impressed with the pace that trivia moved at. (In Drew's defence, Grill was away, and he only had a mangina to help him.)
She got loud. And mad. Really mad.
Drew responded by using the microphone to his advantage and made her look worse. Then he took his sweet ass time getting the round going.
She got more mad.
Now, I'm leaving out where she works and what she does for the Department of Sociology at this university because I have class. Some things are just wrong.
Apparently their table was there because of a facebook group called "Vote for Change" or something like that.
Anyways, the culmination of the event was Drew and being talked to by a dude (ogre) from her table. Here's how it looked:
Quote: "You know what's not cool? When you have to send up your boyfriend to deal with it." Steve B.
Yes, their table's Shrek did not look happy. I think it's because Drew announced where the lady at the table works. I bet Drew wants to borrow my gauntlets.
Returning to the trivia round, things went shitty for us.
We lost all of our lead points on Hitler for the night except for 1/2 a point, which was enough to net us the overall win for the night.
I think that Tom Cochrane White Hot (actual name from Craig) sounds a lot like Bon Jovi Runaway at the beginning. I know they aren't the exact same, but at least I'm not crazy.
Ok, to summarize tonight's trivia:
-too late
-too many players (on hitler)
-too funny (lady freaking on Drew)
-too legit to quit
-too shitty (Friends, that is)
The scores for the night are:
1. Travis 49.5
2. Hitler 49
3. Wes 46.5
4. Broad Street Brawlers 45.5
5. dunno (Bi-Polar Bears?) 43
6. Bite the pillow 44.
Overall scores for the season as best as I can get are:
1. Hitler 320
2. Travis 312.5
3. Broad Street Brawlers 298.5
I cannot say anything more regarding standings with certainty.

Week 7 Season 1 2009
Members in Attendance: Travis, Andrea, Steve-B, Trivia-Kari, Steve-Know, Cindy
Pitchers Won: 3 Boo Yeah
Round 1
Gwahahahaha a perfect 10. We showed our true trivia prowess by destroying the first round. The next closest team was Hitler, with 7 points. That right, we started the night off by gaining three points on the vacuously disgusting, perverted and filthy Hitlers.
Some fun things that we knew were:
How many humps a bactrian camel has (2).
What a wormhole is (well, what a wormhole may be).
Djoser built the first pyramid.
Yes we thoroughly spanked that first round. Things were off to a great start, but then......
Round 2
Shit. We got a 5. Grew and Drill have taken up a love of country music or something. Hitler's cell phone knew 8 of the questions. Dammit, we gain 3 points on them only to lose them in the next round.........yaaargh.
Here's how losing points on Hitler felt.
Round 3
This was a fun round. (So was the first btw. Did I mention how awesome we did in the first round?) The worst part about this round, is that we got a 7, and we had pondered the correct answers for 2 of the ones we got wrong.
Where on the human body would you find the thinnest layer of skin? We said 'lips'. Apparently its the 'eyelids', which we debated.
What is the fastest non-mechanical sport? We chose bobsled. The inner physicist knew that skydiving was faster (after Travis (the person) brought it up). Our debate was over whether or not skydiving is a sport. I don't think it is. Big whoop, you leapt out of a plane. In the words of Buzz Lightyear, the rest is just falling with style.
The one question we didn't know was what 'pop' in 'pop goes the weasel' means. Apparently it's a bit of English cockney, and 'pop' means 'to pawn'. We assumed it meant to kill a weasel, and that this children's nursery rhyme was no different from any other one and involved killing something. (it turns out the pawning is so that people can buy booze in some interpretations).
Now I would like to take a moment to address some concerns that have brought to my attention. Some complain that this blog is too far right and that I'm a right wing crackpot. Well here's something for the lefties regarding weasels:
Note the weasel fur jackets lefties. These guys love having red paint thrown on them as they are engineers.
Somehow I seem to have gotten off track.
Round 3 ended with us getting 7, Hitler got 6. Sweet.
Round 4. The Theme Round
Tonight's theme was game show themes. Well I would like to brag about our 10, but there was a 6 way tie for first, and one of those teams was Hitler. Being in league with them some how lessens the perfect score....
Anyways, BF Prentice, our expansion team, yelled out the answer loudest (but not first) and won the beer.
Fun round.
Round 5
The guys put together a clever theme round where all of the answers had a common theme; they were 'nuts'.
Ok, here's my beef, christmas trees are not necessarily pine. All you said was conifers. Wikipedia lists 12 common types of Christmas trees used in North America, and 7 of them are firs (which we put down as our answer), the other 5 are pine. 7>5. Do I have to do another math proof this week?
Anyways, the theme was clever.
Us 5, Hitler 6. Shitty.
Round 6
Hmmm something strange is going on. Alexis came out and told us that she was not going to beak us for the rest of the semester. She claims that she is saving up for some sort of mega-beak at the end of the semester. Then she proceeded to do her best to hold in her hatred for us. Some of it still slipped out. "You guys better be lubing up your assholes. Be prepared for the beak of your life."
The round went swell for us: a 9.5 and Hitler only got... I think it was 6.5.
The point is, we won the night. Boo yeah!! Then we were faced with a predicament. It's late, no one is drinking a lot on our team and we just won 2 pitchers of beer. Props go to Alexis for letting us carry over a pitcher.
The results for the season thus far are:
6. 2 Tall Broads 240
5. Wes 241
4. Bi-Polar Bears 245
3. Broad Street Brawlers 253
2. Travis 263
1. Hitler 271
This was one of the most satisfying Trivia nights in awhile. Good times guys and gals.

Week 6 Season 1 2009
Members in Attendance: Travis, Andrea, Steve-B, Trivia-James, Steve-Know, Cindy, Michelle, The Original Craig T. Nelson.
Pitchers Won: 1
To begin tonight's recap, I would like to wish Craig a happy b-day!
Round 1
We thoroughly spanked this round (even if we only got 8). I didn't write any of the actual questions down because I couldn't reach around my giant erection summoned by our performance. That's right. I think our knowledge is sexy.
We actually gained 2 points on Hitler in this round.
Note that Hitler=PHDTS
Want proof?
Proof By Contradiction
Assume PHDTS is not Hitler
Let a=PHDTS
Let b=not Hitler
This was a fun round. Drew had a nice Freudian slip when he called the team 'Children of the Cornhole', "Children Cornhole" which revealed to everyone what Drew really has on his mind all the time. Perv.
However, Drew's not all bad. When some team named themselves "The Cheaters, Catch Us If You Can", Drew rather wittly replied, "Yeah, well you didn't cheat enough." in response to their shittiness. Nice. Now PHDTS is apparently filling out 2 cards per round?
Also, the Bi-Polar Bears, our honourable brethren, get a shout out for their tagline: "PHDTS should have cell phones on their new shirts."
Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that Hitler has uniforms now.
Round 3
Well, I would formally like to apologize for getting a bonus wrong.
Here's a photo I took with my camera:
I know what you're wondering "Does she have nice tits?" Yes, she does.
Fuck beans, why did I get that wrong? (not what it's called, but rather where it is)
Note: I went to Paris before Amsterdam, so there's no blaming my memory loss on that.
Hitler fired back this round with: "The Bi-Polar Bears should have vaginas on their shirt because they are a bunch of crusty vaginas." No-one likes Hitler anyways.
Round 4 Movie Quotes.
Note: Hitler is getting a degree in watching movies. Why the hell did I torture myself with a Science degree? Oh yeah, because I'm not Hitler.
The Good Guys 8
Hitler 10
Round 5 Drew and Grill Get Their Rape On
Yowzers. We got a 4. (At least Hitler only got a 3).
Apparently the most common pub name in England is "The Red Lion".
This page says "The Crown" is actually the most common name. In fact, so does Wikipedia.
I said "the local" ie. what most English people call their local pub. Again wrong. I cannot be allowed to answer without supervision from now on.
End result: The Good Guys: 4. Hitler 3, (2 Guys 1 Cup won the round with 5).
Round 6
Alexis beaked. She always does. Eventually all you hear is, "Are you scared of me? I hope so."
She wanted to show us her new unicorn tattoo, here's a photo I took of it.
I agree, it is very detailed. I'm not sure if Alexis knows what a unicorn is however.
Then the round started. We got 7, Hitler got 8.
Less importantly, Broad Street Brawlers got 6. Alexis announced to the bar that she shit the bed. Incontinence is hilarious.
Overall
Well holyfuckinblitzkrieg Hitler gained more points on us tonight! The scores for the season thus far are:
1. Hitler 227.5
2. Travis 216.5
3. Broad Street Brawlers 209.5
4. Wes 206.5
5. Bi-Polar Bears 206
6. 2-Tall Broads 200.5
The funniest thing that I bore witness to tonight was the actions of a bunch of metal-heads. They asked us "Are you guys hunters? What do you hunt?" in response to our orange headgear.
One of them mutters "Metal-heads" thinking that he is awesome, and we're a bunch of elitist squares.
The first thing that popped into my mind was 'Meth-heads', but I didn't feel like getting my ass kicked, so I didn't reply with that. We ignored them.
Once they realized that they were about to be asked questions if they stayed in the bar they instantly fled.
Here's the lesson: Deep down, the ultimate weapon that a nerd has over an uneducated toad is that the toad is scared shitless of being assessed. Ask them questions, they hate it. Good stuff.

We actually gained 2 points on Hitler in this round.
Note that Hitler=PHDTS
Want proof?
Proof By Contradiction
Assume PHDTS is not Hitler
Let a=PHDTS
Let b=not Hitler
(from our hypothesis)
2. Multiply through by a
3. Subtract
4. Factor both sides
5. Divide out
6. Observing that
7. Combine like terms on the left
8. Divide by the non-zero b
- We have arrived at a contradiction. Since 2 obviously does not equal 1, our assumption must be false, and PHDTS must be Hitler. Don't act so surprised.
This was a fun round. Drew had a nice Freudian slip when he called the team 'Children of the Cornhole', "Children Cornhole" which revealed to everyone what Drew really has on his mind all the time. Perv.

Alexis beaked. She always does. Eventually all you hear is, "Are you scared of me? I hope so."
She wanted to show us her new unicorn tattoo, here's a photo I took of it.
I agree, it is very detailed. I'm not sure if Alexis knows what a unicorn is however.
Then the round started. We got 7, Hitler got 8.
Less importantly, Broad Street Brawlers got 6. Alexis announced to the bar that she shit the bed. Incontinence is hilarious.
Overall
Well holyfuckinblitzkrieg Hitler gained more points on us tonight! The scores for the season thus far are:
1. Hitler 227.5
2. Travis 216.5
3. Broad Street Brawlers 209.5
4. Wes 206.5
5. Bi-Polar Bears 206
6. 2-Tall Broads 200.5
The funniest thing that I bore witness to tonight was the actions of a bunch of metal-heads. They asked us "Are you guys hunters? What do you hunt?" in response to our orange headgear.
One of them mutters "Metal-heads" thinking that he is awesome, and we're a bunch of elitist squares.
The first thing that popped into my mind was 'Meth-heads', but I didn't feel like getting my ass kicked, so I didn't reply with that. We ignored them.
Once they realized that they were about to be asked questions if they stayed in the bar they instantly fled.
Here's the lesson: Deep down, the ultimate weapon that a nerd has over an uneducated toad is that the toad is scared shitless of being assessed. Ask them questions, they hate it. Good stuff.

Week 5 Season 1 2009
Members in Attendance: Travis, Andrea, Steve-B, Trivia-Kari, Trivia-James, Steve-Know, Cindy
Quasi Support: Ashley, Gus (but never at the same time).
Pitchers won: Zero, unless we count the early attendance pitcher, which I practically ran over a girl I know to get.
We had another fun night of trivia, and it was excellent to have Kari AND James with us. The brain trust was almost complete....we just need Craig T. Nelson. We miss you Craig.
Round 1
This round looked pretty good for us, Kari and James knew the three car companies named after a person that start with "C". I guessed Star Wars for one and was correct. Travis showed off his tri-bond skills and knew that music, prisons, and soap all were bars. Overall it went quite nicely, but we didn't win.
BF Prentice, A.K.A the team that Cindy told about trivia beat us.
(In fact, they handily won the night. I hate them now.)
Round 2
Young whippersnapper music. My old balls descended another foot. We got 7.5, PHDTS got 9.5, it appears that their cell phones are working.
Round 3
The Sex Trivia Round
We didn't know a lot, but we sure learned. Drew and Grill ought to be Sex-Ed teachers. Grill might have to be less disgustingly drunk all the time. Here's some fun facts:
1. Sperm is good for your teeth!! I thought PHDTS had been using whitening strips.
2. Sperm has a speed of 29mph when fired. That must hurt PHDTS's uvula.
3. 8% of people prefer receiving anal. I'm guessing there was about 100 people in the bar, and 8 people on PHDTS.......just saying.
4. I wrote the Kama Sutra. My writing alias is Mallanaga Vatsyayana.
Overall, we got a 4. Ouch. Nobody did great though.
Round 4
The theme round!!! Sweet, it's SNES Themes.
1. F-Zero
2. Donkey Kong Country
3. Rocknroll Raching
4.Star Fox
5. Chrono Trigger
6. Street Fighter 2
7 Super Mario World
8. Zombies ate my Neighbor
9. Sin City
10. Mario Cart Battle Mode
We got 7 correct. There was a three way tie for the teams that got 8 points. Oh sure, now you play the theme to Zelda. Fun round.
Round 5
Props to Cindy for knowing that 7-up used to have lithium in it. Props to James for knowing an aerial is what the Brits call an antennae. Drew and Grill asked a bible question. James destroyed it.
Drew and Grill also asked a question about fonts again. What's the deal guys? We got it right (Kari), I'm just wondering what the infatuation with fonts is lately?
The end result of round 3 was a three way tie, us, BF Prentice, PHDTS.
The Tie Breaker Question: How big is a blue whale's rod? Of course PHDTS knew that. They love dicks!! Here's a photo I found online:
They actually have it touching their face(s). Gross. Also their tongues are hanging out. How much can I further discredit these guys?
Round 6
Alexis and her bar team deserve a round of applause for winning the challenge. They got a perfect 10.
Overall Scores
For the night
1. BF Prentice 47
2. PHDTS 45
3. Travis 43
4. 2 Tall Broads 40.5
5. Wes 39.5
For the season
1. PHDTS 182 (see above photo)
2. Travis 173
3. Broad Street Brawlers 171
4. Wes 163.5
5. Bi-Polar Bears 162.5
6. 2 Tall Broads 160.5
Overall, another satisfying night of trivia (except for the pesky fact that we're not way out in the lead where we prefer to be). It was great to almost have the whole team together.
Oh and I almost forgot the highlight of the night: Mitch got busted making out with a girl in the can. Drew and Grill did the right thing and announced it to the whole bar for maximum humiliation. Their walk of shame back to their chairs was priceless.
Steve B. coming back to our table from th bathroom after missing the announcement and subsequent humiliation and telling us, "Dude, you see that girl and that guy over there? They were totally making out in the can." added a nice final touch.
Sorry for the lateness of the post, but it just felt good to go to bed on Wednesday night for once.

Week 4 Season 1 2009
Members in Attendance: Travis, Andrea, Craig T. Nelson, RevJim, Steve-Know, Cindy
It is great to see Andrea back after a month long sabbattical from trivia (which I hope she spent memorizing the encyclopedia).
Pitchers won: 1
Ok, let me begin tonight's recap again on a happy note: tonight was fun!!
I know, right now you're going "He's not going to say anything edgy, or overly offensive, and he's probably not going to mention guns at all. I better go whack-off/double-click-the-mouse to photos of Bea Arthur instead of reading this." (who knew PHDTS could paint?) I still urge you to read on.
Round 1
Ouch a 5.5. There's a whole team whose name is something like "Can we get a five at least?" It must suck to be them.
We were disappointed with this round. Especially since we flipped the coin on a couple, and got both of the coin flips wrong (sorry James, Days of Thunder was correct).
Trivia James gets big time points for knowing a group of monkeys is called a troop; I was sure the answer was "Push Her Down the Stairs" (I bet Drew and Grill would accept this as an answer).
Round 2
A 7.5 for the good guys (not enough for a win, which was an 8.5 for 2 Tall Broads). We couldn't name an Amanda Marshall song. I sure as hell am not ashamed at this. Not one bit. Amanda Marshall's Discography was actually on my list of the 12 Worst Songs of 2004, but then this came out.
Other than that, it was a fun round.
Round 3
ok, I'm going to break this down as best I can:
1. In the Chinese Zodiac, what is the animal whose name comes first alphabetically? Well the answer given was Dog, too easy, and I'm sure that they would have been eaten anyways. Please tell me you have seen Gran Torino?
Well, might I direct you here. That's right, Cindy-Know, knew that the Boar was the actual animal. Last time I checked B comes before D, but I only took 2 English classes here. not like you guys..... oh wait, engineers only take English 100, and they can fail three times!!! Not like other faculties. Sorry, that's a cheap shot, I'm sure you both got solid C's.
2. Ostrich, we knew that (I think credit goes to Cindy-Know again).
3. The question was, unless I'm mistaken, which never happens, was : "What team has been in every world cup since it started in 1930?"
Well it would appear that Brazil has been in it 18 times. So since I don't know a fucking thing about soccer what I learned tonight is that there has been 18 world cups since 1930. Good to know.
4. Where does Balaclava come from?
To quote Grill: "The first time I had sex in the park, I wanted her to not see my face (for obvious reasons), so I pulled a black shirt over my face and tied it at the back. Then I cut some eye holes. She was from some weird country and instead of yelling 'No', she kept making sounds like 'bellaclavva'. I took the name from there and spread it throughout the world."
5. Columbus was Italian. Fuck I watched a whole episode of Sopranos about Columbos Day. I'm kicking myself.
6,7,8,9,10: We knew them all.
Intermission: The Owl Staff tonight get a big high five for not giving us our pizza, and then making us raise shit to get one. (We actually saw our pizza delivered to the wrong table). The number was not given out over the mic, our pizza was delivered, to the wrong table.
Well Craig T. Nelson a.k.a. Clark Kent would have none of this. Here's how it went down:
That's right, Craig punched a burrowing owl he was so mad at the owl staff.
Now that it's the end of round three, I would ike to point out that it's 11:30.
But wait, there's more:
Grill: "Craig, Shopper's Drug Mart has a sale on Just For Men".
Craig: " You would know because you read the Shoppers flyer every week and beat off to it."
I have nothing to add to this.
Round 4
We got a 9. As per usual, round 4 was awesome. It was movie themes, and they were good. I was so excited I broke my pen.
Travis (the person) knew a shit load: The Rock, Speed, I can't remember the rest.....good stuff.
Round 5
We got a 9. Then I had to go up for the tie breaker (it was actually my first time, the other time I went up the other team was BSB and we won by default). I won the round by answering the question before Drew could finish it. BooYeah. I hate to brag, but I was pretty happy to win my first showdown.
Round 6
We got a 6.5. That's even a little young for Tillman. (foo far?)
I have decided that our team's problem is this: We are too smart. We know two answers to every question. Then making the decision is the hard part.
Here's the night's scores
44 Broad Street Brawlers
43 PHDTS
42 Some team with a B
41.5 Travis
40.5 Bite the Pillow Bitch.....
40.5 Wes
40 2 Tall Broads
39.5 Bi-Polar Bears
Season Scores
1. PHDTS 137
2. BSB 134
3. Travis 130
4. Bi-Polar Bears 126
5. Wes 124
6. Bite the Pillow 120
7. 2 Tall Broads 120
Hmm all I can say is that I sure liked things better when PHDTS sat right in front of Drew and Grill rather than on the stage...............just saying.
Maybe I better threaten them with..... a slingshot, or a sword or something I don't know......
