Edit: Bsmack got it first.

[Goober McTuber]

18. What was the British “Mosquito” plane made out of?

Wood. Molded plywood.


BTW, I would have hoped that this was one thread that might be a safe haven from the inane ramblings of that tedious cunt, but I guess not.

3. In the kidney there is a microscopic structure which functions to collect the blood filtrate that will eventually form urine. What is this named?

Well, the nephron isn't microscopic, so I'm assuming you want something more specific. Bowman's capsule.

[Goober McTuber]

I know, I edited my original post. :wink:

BTW, they were also made partially of balsa wood. Nice protection when you get shot at. :rollem:

19. What pitcher holds the lifetime record for average number of strikeouts per game?

LTS/Nick Frisco/Carol Condit/FOO averaged an even three strikeouts per game while performing for the Chinatown Egg Foo Yungs, during the 2001 and 2002 season. His notorious 81 mph fastfball actually was never ever hit. Jesus cculd hit Nolan Ryan but he couln't hit the famous Zionist killer heat. Also for you facts buffs, the other person of that pitcher-catcher team was, TVO, aka the Stubby Conspiracy Hack.

But one day they awoke together, pine tarred each others bats and played, "Upside It," for the rest of the season.

8: Who won the Hiesman Trophy in 2001

Eric Crouch- Nebraska

[Terry in Crapchester]

Damn, BSmack beat me to #8.

12. How many people were president before president Clinton?

40. There were 41 Presidents before Clinton, but one man (Grover Cleveland) served two non-consecutive terms and is counted as two Presidents.

He may have been two Presidents, but he was still only one person. Gotta read the question.

[Goober McTuber]

13. In medieval times, what was a ‘quintain’?

An object used to help train a knight. It consisted of a shield and dummy suspended from a swinging pole, kind of a practice target. Like the jousting equivalent of BSmack.

I am catching on. The shield would be the unbalanced one-LTS, the dummy is TVO and the swinging pole would be Dinsdaleinski. So I have to wait an hour now, Mike?

You honor me with your continued ankle biting. Tell me, what exactly did I do to earn your never ending attention?

9. Casey Clausen lost 1 SEC road game his whole career at Tennessee to who?

It's a trick question. He was in the SEC -- he never played a road game.


Rack all the CFB questions-btw.

Ankle-biting, huh. You buying your material from KFC Paul now?

Jsc, check your PM's in a bit. I've got some gastro issues myself and my docs are making money. I can't even eat jello right now.

I see that Zardoz is freaking over Toto biting at the curtains again.

Please. He's just being honest about where he gets his expertise. It's only trivia. People don't know shit by being born with knowledge. You have to learn it somewhere. If you are faster at ferreting out info than others, then it's all good. The point is learning, as much as regurgitation.

(but yeah, the mods can split this off, since it doesn't pertain to the thread.)

Hey, I'm being honest...I had to look it up. Was it better I had the right answer by looking it up or taking some wild stab in the dark and being totally wrong? I can't say I'm up on the retired numbers for the UCLA football team.

[Terry in Crapchester]

19. What pitcher holds the lifetime record for average number of strikeouts per game?

Strictly a guess . . . Nolan Ryan?

[Smackie Chan]

Randy Johnson

[Shoalzie]

Then don't answer the question, you fucking tard.

Novel idea, sir...I didn't think of that. I'm sure I'm not the only one here that has looked up an answer for the OHC...of course Dins would never lower himself to doing that since he knows everything.

[Dinsdale]

No, you fucking idiot, it wasn't.


Geez, as OCMike will surely verify, I'm as quick as anyone to give him shit about his HumpedAGay Challenge, but I would never dream of sullying it by looking up answers.

Just because he doesn't post the Gentleman's Rule every time he takes the time to make it, it doesn't mean it's not in æffect.

Is it called the "Reference Site Challenge"?

No.

Is it called the "Wikipedia Challenge"?

No.

Do people walk on to the set of Jeopardy with an encyclopedia under their arm?


You've dissed everyone who has ever put their knowledge to the test by playing Mike's game, you lowlife.

It's one thing to use references to verify or eloborate an answer that you question the validity of, it's a whole nother ball of wax to use references to actually come up with the answer.


Fucking douchebag.
