So it's only general knowledge if it includes topics you're familiar with? I see.

Breadth and variety = general knowledge
Incesaant lazy questions about pop music and pop culture = questions about pop music and pop culture.

Not that hard to see.

I'll email them and ask them to squeeze in a question asking what scale Symphony No. 5 was in.

Not necessary as I'm not that arsed, really. I just want you to acknowledge that you wrongly lept onto a throwaway grumble of mine in an attempt to suggest that my sentiment was wrong and therefore call me dumb. We have now established, however, that you don't comprehend the meaning of "general" in a "general knowledge" context. I'm satisfied with that.

On with the day.

Ironically, this exchange has bracketed a meeting I was having with the chair of the local historical society about me running a broad ranging , fund raising quiz for them. Nice!

Mention of these two Byronic antiheroes made me chuckle (22/25).

17 Meh! I suppose not awful for a vegetarian this week. Meat murdered me for once!

 

[Cels]

Fortunately, the Deli Meat and Phonetic Alphabet questions helped pull me out of the hole I usually dig myself into.

I scored 15 out of 25 on this week's JOE pub quiz, which is disappointing since I answered the first nine questions correctly. As usual, I struggled on the television and music questions. The NATO Alphabet round was quite difficult too.

21. The meats had me off.
