Thank you, History class

I went to a quiz night last night. I had sooo much fun (I love quiz nights) and I can safely say that my presence there was needed because the rest of the table was ace at sport questions and I shine in, well... the humanities section.

Q: What was Iosif Vissarionovich Dzhugashvili better known as?
A: Josef Stalin

That's right, 2 years of modern history specialising in the Russian Revolution (and then continuing it in Uni) has not been in vain because I got us 4th place in a quiz night!

Not that I'm going to get picky or anything, but we actually should have won because the teams who beat us all bought bonus points. So pffffffft to them.

OMG. I love quiz nights too, it's where I open the gate and let my inner Hermione Granger roam free. My favourite questions are the pop culture ones.

Jacob, you get to be on the Quiz Night Table of my Dreams.
I'll have you for pop culture, HP Girl for sport (she invited me to the one last night) but I need a Geography person. Any ideas?

I'm also good for the politics questions. Who's HP Girl?

Geography, hrmmm. Everyone seems to hate geography for some reason. I think if they're questions about capital cities then they're easy enough, but anything about rivers and mountain ranges makes me zzzzzzzzzzz.
