"Hee! You odd, odd Americans, having Thanksgiving a month late." - nihilistbear

(Yeah, we do shit crazy whack down here. -CV)

It's Thanksgiving time here in the USA, and hence we offer a decidedly Thanksgivingy bent to this week's set of questions. That's right, subtlety is not one of our stronger points. Just sit back, grab a turkey sandwich, and enjoy.



1. What is the name of the amino acid found in turkey meat that makes people feel sleepy when they eat it?

"I feel the great need to make some wise-crack about acid, but I don't know any. *emo tear*" - vanbrosia

(We'll let your colleagues pick up the slack, then. -CV)

"There's acid in my turkey? The certainly explains a lot of the ruckus at previous Thanksgivings." - notevenu
"My parents have been known to add LSD to theirs ... (Life is hard for the children of crazy hippie people.)" - 3jane
"Tripping-phan. At least that's what we call it when Grandma makes her 'special' mushroom sauce." - purple_roses

(I tell you, some people have all the luck. Not once have I been served a hallucinogenic substance at ANY family meal. -AL)

"Are you sure it's not a fatty acid? Cuz Lord, do I feel fat after eating Thanksgiving dinner. Not to mention really really sleepy. Maybe they put some kind of Valium extract into the amino-fatty acid. Hell, maybe they marinate the whole thing in Valium before selling it to the public. Or -- better yet, and much simpler -- they stick it in the turkey food, so they injest it while they're alive, and it goes into their whole system. Then when we eat it, it's just bursting with Valium-ness. That's my theory." - jelymo

"It also supposedly makes you happy because it acts on serotonin. It's like turkey-derived Prozac. You would assume our Thanksgiving table would be a much happier place. Of course, you would be completely wrong." - mistressofvice

"My favourite amino acid was always phenylalalalalalalanine. Or something. It's like bananananana. You just can't stop." - flysparrowfly

"Sleep Turkey Stuff. I should know this one. My friend Luc told me I was made of it because everytime he came around me, he got sleepy." - whiski_sour

(Are you sure he wasn't trying to say that every time he came around you, he wanted to sleep with you? Just checking. -AL)

"Also known as the reason teachers at my high school hated the day the cafeteria decided to serve Thanksgiving dinner for lunch." - ctorres

(Was lunch right before kleenexwoman's calculus class? -AL)

"It affects me like crazy: I had a turkey sandwich for lunch today and afterwards I slept all through my calculus class. (On second thought, that may have just been because I had a calculus class.)" - kleenexwoman

(Well you ARE a Quizling, which means it's highly probable that you hate math. -CV)

"I bet this is the reason why turkey is the only kind of human food my cat will eat. Well, that and french fries. Okay, so maybe she's just fat and obnoxious." - elsajeni

"Tryptophan. I could draw it, if you'd like... I might as well get some use out of my biochem degree." - silk_knickers

"Tryptophan is nature's way of trying to minimize family arguments. (Or in the case of my family, assaults.) Tryptophan, combined with complete gluttony, makes people too slow and tired to fight." - b7cy

"The main character in the series Dark Angel suffered from a tryptophan deficiency, and was always drinking milk and eating turkey in order to be able to sleep. See, I do learn things from all of the bad TV I take in." - chrysoberyl

"It's GRAVY, duh!" - lynbug

Correct Answer: Tryptophan

"not to be confused with triskadekaphobia--the fear of Triscuits." - trishalynn

"For those of us not eating turkey who still get drowsy, it's called 'gluttony'." - sargiegirl76

(Full vegetarian credit. -AL)



2. What country's capital was formerly named Constantinople? (And no more TMBG quotes. Been there, done that.)

"what's TMBG?" - nihilistbear

(You know, although we occasionally frown on lack of knowledge here at LJDQ, I'm going to give you extra credit anyway for knowing nothing about They Might Be Giants. I wish I was like you. -CV)

"Sweet Jebus, I hate TMBG. That "build a birdhouse in your soul" song makes me want to reach in and tear somebody's soul out, birdhouse and all. Then stomp on it. Then light it on fire, using TMBG albums as kindling. Did I mention I hate TMBG?" - b7cy

"Istanbullshit." - silent_r_infork

"Lilliput. No giants, nope, only little people there. They are definitely not giants." - sasscat

"istanbul, but now that song is stuck in my head. you bastards." - elpblonde

(Just as I was preparing to make fun of elpblonde - & a bunch of other Quizlings - for not reading the question correctly, I came across her second answer ... -AL)

"re-do number two. i sat up at five a.m. this morning and shrieked 'it's not istanbul! it's turkey!' my boyfriend hit me with a pillow and told me to shut up." - elpblonde

(We're in their dreams now. Our work is almost complete. -CV)

"I'll tell you a little story: one day I was at an anime convention, working on the newsletter with three other gals inside the publications office. I got a song stuck in my head and I started to hum it out loud. And then I started to sing it. The the other girls started to sing, and then we even sang the bridge before the final chorus, going 'Doo-doo-doo! Doo-doo-de-dooby-dooby...' And then finally, we swung back into the last verse and right into the final line, where I leaned back, showed some jazz hands, and we all sang, 'ISTANBUUUUUUUUUUULLLLLLLL!'" - trishalynn

"Due to the low humor potential of this question, I am placing this space for rent. Please call 1-800-LJDQ-OWN to reserve your adspace today!" - fizrep

(You're just being lazy. Your fellow Quizlings gave us plenty of humor on this one. -AL)

"I'm going to go out on a theme-induced limb here and guess ... Drumstick?" - kenshardik

"Cranberry Sauce. Lovely country, I'd like to visit someday." - shinga

"I am a product of the Amerikan Publik Educashional Sistem. You really expect me to know this????" - little_spyke

(Yes. We're demanding bastards. -CV)

"Must. Resist. Obvious. Answer. *wails* But it issss! Isn't it Turkey, and the city is now Istanbul? Am I going insane?" - mary_re

"Turkey. Which is right next to Hungary. If I was right next to Turkey I would be Hungary too." - kleenexwoman

(+1, puntastic. -CV I KEEL YOU HOR! -AL)

"The capital of Turkey, currently known as Istanbul, has survived a most interesting series of changes. The city was modeled after Rome when it was reconstructed in Septimius Severus's time, built on and around seven hills. Later on, it was chosen by Constantine (C., Flavius Valerius Constantinus) as his capital. In 1454, the city was conquered by Mehmet II of the Ottoman Empire and renamed "Istanbul" (from the Greek "eis ten polin," "in the city")...but it wasn't changed officially until 1930, and lots of people still referred to it as Constantinople into the 1960s." - turgidnothings

"Turkey! YES! All those hours watching the History Channel paid off! w00t! But really, all I really know is that it was named after Constantine, who was waging the whole "Fight for me God's kingdom, bitches!" Holy War thing." - vanbrosia

(That thing has never gone out of style. If someone could come up with a way to put an end to it, I'd be really thankful. -AL)

"Turkey! Notable for its baths and prisons, one of which is supposedly much more pleasant to spend time in than the other. As to which is which, I've been informed that that is a matter of personal opinion." - serrico

"Have you ever been in a Turkish prison?" - jacesan

(+1, Airplane. -CV)

Correct Answer: Turkey

"No relation to the bird. But they get that a lot." - silk_knickers

"I was a delegate of Turkey for Model United Nations in high school." - thinksheknowsya

(I'm betting you're much nicer than the delegates of Turkey at the Real United Nations. -CV)



3. What was the name of the Indian chief who provided most of the food for the Pilgrims' first Thanksgiving meal?

"Tsk, it's Native American, not Indian. Get your PC right!" - vanbrosia

(Our Political Correctness is always right. It just happens to coincide with our particular definition of 'correct'. -AL)

"Chief Wiggum, and he also had a penchant for law enforcement." - mcclintock

"According to my nephew it was He-Man's pet hamster, Fluffy." - anna_sinistra

(-1, blaming your wrong answers on your nephew. Have you no shame? -AL)

"Chief My-Turkey-is-never-dry" - warrame

(He was the first cook to perfect the art of deep fat-frying the turkey. Mmmm. -AL)

"Chief Running Buffet." - thisisbullcrap

"Regretting Bull" - lots42

"We don't have the whole "Indian" mythology of Thanksgiving in Canada. We just eat a lot (and much earlier than you people) because adding that fresh layer of fat before winter is generally a good idea. And that is my excuse for having no idea whatsoever. (But Wednesday Addams' boyfriend played him in their camp's theatrical production, didn't he? Or maybe they ignored the standard myth in favour of having Wednesday lead the Natives. Gah, it's been too long since I watched that movie. But I do remember that Mercedes McNab played the bitchy blonde anti-Wednesday camper. I think I kinda have my own, personal sub-theme this week.)" - serrico

"I'm not sure, but I know that Crazy Horse brought the 40's." - kenshardik

(And that's what makes a party a par-TAY! -AL)

"squanto, which, as dave barry has pointed out, sounds like a really disgusting act, like 'hey, mom! the dog made squanto on the linoleum again!'" - elpblonde

"I don't know the name of the Indian chief, but his squaw was known to say, 'After I slaved away all day over a hot fire, is it too much to ask for your pale-face friends to clear the dishes from the table?'" - sskipstress

(The tradition of family fights at Thanksgiving is an ancient one. -AL)

"Squanto? Tanto? Tito? Germain?" - mistressofvice

(Almost. Not quite. Not really. And hoooo boy, no. -CV)

"Sucker McBeadboy" - xgreenjudasx

(As once pointed out, they did trade New York for beads... -CV)

"My first instinct was to say Sasquatch, but I'm pretty sure that's wrong. I think his name was actually...Uhm...Come on, I know I learned this in third grade...Oh! Massa...Massa...Massasosit? Is that how you spell it? Whatever." - yunami

(+1, remembering ANYTHING from third grade. I'm hard-pressed to remember last week. -AL)

"Mass-o-soy (he was a vegetarian, you see)" - turgidnothings

Correct Answer: Massasoit

"Okay, I'm a moron. I thought you were saying that they ate Indian chiefs for dinner and that this one had the most meat on him." - rodimus_korn



4. One of the oldest Homo erectus skulls ever discovered is formally known as Specimen WT 1500. What is the nickname for this specimen?

(For the record, a minor typo altered this question slightly- it should have read as Specimen WT 15000. However, also for the record, we honestly suspect that it would not have made a whit of difference to most of you. Carry on. -AL&CV)

"*slow blink*" - vanbrosia

(Looks like someone has been nipping into the tryptophan-laden turkey a bit early this week. -AL)

"'Specimen WT 1500' ?? That sounds like a friggin industrial-strength cleaner. Or some Tim Taylor-invented tool on Home Improvement." - jelymo

"I reject the use of nicknames! His name is Robert Paulson." - snigglefritz

(+1, Fight Club. -CV)

"Lucy." - a plethora of you

"Because all girls I've even met named Lucy are British and, well, you know the Brits are famous for their poor dental hygiene and sloping brows much like the Homo erectus." - xgreenjudasx

(And the British take one for the team. -CV)

"Lucy. Again with the quiz theme helping me figure out an answer to a question that otherwise I'd be saying 'huh?' over. Er, there is a Charlie Brown thanksgiving special, isn't there? I only really remember the Great Pumpkin and the Christmas tree ones." - silk_knickers

(Yes, there is a Charlie Brown Thanksgiving Special. Yes, there is a thanksgiving quiz theme. And yes, we totally tricked you here. -AL&CV)

"Please note: Now that (shudder) Bush has been re-elected, the oldest specimens of "Homo erectus" will now be referred to by their proper Biblical names, Adam and Eve. Also, you will no longer be able to use the phrase "homo erectus" except in legal documents outlawing homosexuality and any associated erections. See future Constitutional amendments." - b7cy

"Bob." - ctorres

(No, Bob is my new housemate. He's definitely not a skull, nor does he answer when I yell, "Yo! WT 1500, it's your turn to take out the recycling!" Actually, I haven't tried that. Let me give it a try, & I'll report back next week. -AL)

"Skeletor" - jacesan

"SmegHead!!" - seolta

(+1, Red Dwarf. -CV)

"I saw acronyms and numbers, and "Hal" came to mind. I know you wanted a funnier answer ... I'm sorry, LJDQ. I can't do that." - muzzyfeverlint

(+1, 2001: A Space Odyssey. -CV)

"Bob Dole" - lots42

(He's a specimen of Viagra erectus. -AL)

"1500 is Fifteen hundred, or F, so that would make it...WTF?!" - flysparrowfly

(And now for a bit of analysis. Which word or phrase in Question #4 did the Quizlings find the funniest?)

(Homo, 5:)

"I can only guess they call him 'teh gay'. Again, no real clue. But be sure to keep count of the Homo jokes you get from this one." - little_spyke

(Erectus, 7:)

"Knowing you'll probably get only God knows how many boner joke replies to this question makes me lose all respect for human beings. Maybe will get lucky and turkeys will take over the world." - rodimus_korn

(Homo Erectus, 4:)

"I wonder how many jokes you'll get about 'Homo Erectus.' I could be very sophomoric and add one of my own, but I won't. *snort* Heh, Orlando Bloom makes my gay guy friend become Homo Erectus. Ok, I lied, so sue me! That was awful, but I'm not sorry!" - twilight_angel

"some sort of...thanksgiving food? 'Stuffing boy' 'Pumpkin pie girl' 'cranberry sauce man' I've not got a clue..." - ataralas

(Theme-inspired guessing brought you sooo close ... -AL)

("sooo close" = "not even remotely close". -CV)

"Erm. KNM-ER 1500 is a homo habilis specimen, while WT 15000 is the homo erectus specimen known as the Turkana Boy (note the WT, which refers to the site where the remains were found, ie West Turkana). I assume you are referring to the latter, if I have interpreted the theme of this week's question correctly...and wow, I sound like a nerd. I only took Physical Anthropology to get my Level 2 science credit, I swear!" - mary_re

(But now, that class has also gotten you the coveted Geek of the Week award! Here's your -1! And uhhh ... yeah, thanks for catching my error. -AL)

"Nariokotome Boy or Turkana Boy, found in Kenya by Dr Leakey (yeah! Lucy!!) and discussed in the book "Broka's Brain" which, yes, I, in fact, have read because I apparently have no life!" - vagablonde

Correct Answer: Turkana Boy



5. What are you thankful for this Thanksgiving? Even if you don't celebrate Thanksgiving, embrace our American ways for a moment and answer the #@$*&! question.

"See, you had to go ask a serious question..." - ataralas

(Yes, but that doesn't necessarily mean we'll pull the serious answers. -CV)

"Family, friends, porn (that does not feature family and/or friends), ljdq (despite its lack of zombies) and the mods, weaponry, wank, shiny things, people giving me money, and pie." - whiski_sour

"I am SO THANKFUL I am moving out of this stupid town in a month. Kiss my ass, Townsville! Yes, it's named Townsville. Yes, like in the Powerpuff Girls. No, the PPG don't actually live here. Actually, I wish they would, that'd be cool." - vanbrosia

"I am thankful for a meal that I don't have to budget for." - popefelix

(Amen to that. -CV)

(CV = Cheap bastard. -AL)

"I'm thankful that Auburn kicked Bama's fat ass. UNDEFEATED MOTHER F&$%ERS!!! THE BEAR JUST CALLED!!! HE SAYS YOU F&$%ING SUCK!!!! WAR EAGLE!!" - rodimus_korn

"Well... my DSL is pretty cool. Oh, and I like my cat. And those little cheesecake things I ate yesterday... I had like, four. And I'd add 'masturbation', but I'm trying not to totally incriminate myself with the "heehee, my comment is screened!" sense of security that I don't really have cause you people are evil(which IS a good thing, I'm just sayin...). On that note, though, I am thankful for screened comments, cause... MASTURBATION." - shinga

(You know, it took us a good deal of consideration to decide whether or not to post this answer. Well, actually, about ninety-two seconds and two gin and tonics apiece. But still, you get the idea. It was a lot of work. And in the end, we voted for badness. Better luck next time, shinga. -AL&CV)

"I am thankful for... caffiene! Oh man am I thankful for caffiene. It's more beauteous than a hundred summer sunsets! More poetic than a thousand sonnets! More adored than a million little kittens all tumbling over each other!
And, you know, family, friends blah, blah, blah thankfulnesscakes." - nihilistbear

"I'm thankful for gaining my driver's licence and losing my virginity, seems like a good deal to me. Er, not that one has any relation to the other. My driving instructor was eeergh, very much not my type, thankyouverymuch." - dracothelizard

"I'm thankful for Chocolate Bourbon Pecan Pie:

(Mmmmmmmmmm... pie. -CV)

"Our new kitten and pie. Not together, of course." - goat003

(As are all our dear quizlings. -AL)

Correct Answer: "Boobies. Yeah, that's what I'm thankful for. Boobies. And Liquor. Yeah...boobies and liquor. Oh wait...and chocolate. Definitely chocolate. Boobies, liquor and chocolate." - doomgirl


As for us, we are thankful for all of you who watch, enjoy, and play LJDQ and have made this community what it is today. It only works when you help us make it work.

We're also pretty damn thankful for pudding. Mmmmm... pudding.


Happy Thanksgiving to all who celebrated, happy weekend for all, and we'll see you again next week for more fun-filled action-packed LJDQ goodness (patent pending)!

Rock on,

Ang & Hans

HOLY HELL I TOTALLY FORGOT I SAID THAT.

Good thing I have no sense of dignity. ;)

[chaosvizier.livejournal.com]

Good thing I have no sense of dignity.

Good thing indeed. Goes well with our having no sense of restraint.

And, on that note, welcome aboard!

[blunder-buss.livejournal.com]

Oh SWEET! I got quoted for EVERY QUESTION! YES! GO ME!

*dances around*

[chaosvizier.livejournal.com]

Lucky day. Guess you ate your Wheaties this week.

[blunder-buss.livejournal.com]

I eat my Wheatbix religiously every day. :D

[chaosvizier.livejournal.com]

Weetabix? I used to eat them all the time back in Germany. Granted, I heaped sugar on them like no tomorrow, perhaps detracting from some of their pure nutritional value, but still...

[blunder-buss.livejournal.com]

I think Wheatbix is the Australian version of wheaty things. I add oodles of sugar too. And I microwave it. XD

[elliemurasaki.livejournal.com]

So getting quoted on every question isn't an unattainable goal after all, as demonstrated by the fact that it has been attained...of course, ljdq has three or four times as many watchers now as it did at the time of this great achievement...

*archive-trolling, don't mind me*

[chaosvizier.livejournal.com]

Actually, I think at the time of this achievement we had made an epic leap from fifty to ninety watchers. It was crazy whack! So, now we're fifteen times that. We quoted folks a lot more back then, because it was easy to grade, and we wanted some good quantity. Ah, how times have changed.

Also, it's nice to see someone trawling the archives. Sometimes even we forget how much funny has come and gone in four years...

[elliemurasaki.livejournal.com]

Heh.

Also I'm mad at you for doing a planets theme when I wasn't around to play. *sulks*

[chaosvizier.livejournal.com]

Hey, it's not our fault you didn't catch on to our awesomeness until later. You're just too slow. ;-)

[nihilistbear.livejournal.com]

TMBG... They Might Be Giants... Didn't they sing that really annoying theme song to Macolm in The Middle? I only know this because my evil cousins sent their kids for a weekend and I had to refrain from killing them while they sang "life is unfair" over and over again. Grrrr.... I hate They Might Be Giants. Bastards.

[chaosvizier.livejournal.com]

I've only seen one episode of Malcolm in the Middle. I'll admit, it was pretty funny... but I don't get to TV much nowadays. The internet has consumed my life.

My name is Bill, and I'm a TMBG-a-holic.

[krick.livejournal.com]

Oh dear. All these TMBG haters.

To each of you, I pose the question...

What bands *do* you like?

Re: My name is Bill, and I'm a TMBG-a-holic.

[nihilistbear.livejournal.com]

I only hate them because my nephews and nieces tortured me with them and thus I break out in hives thinking about them.

I, um, like music. I'd go into to detail, but there's apparently a 4300 word limit in comments, and thus I would never finish.

[jelymo.livejournal.com]

oh dear, where to begin...

"Tryptophan is nature's way of trying to minimize family arguments. (Or in the case of my family, assaults.) Tryptophan, combined with complete gluttony, makes people too slow and tired to fight." - b7cy

... unless they're my family. I start to get dopey and get comfortable on the sofa only to have my aunt start yelling at me. "Every year you eat and fall asleep. STOP SLEEPING IN MY LIVING ROOM." I mean, and do what, exactly? Sit and listen to the "adults" prattle and give them opportunity to start picking on me? Thanks but NO.

If you know of anything that can stop families from fighting, please send it to me ASAP in large crates, preferably before Christmas, so I can have time to poison them slip it into their food and kill them shut them up for a few hours. (and people wonder why i moved out...)

I should have mentioned that I was thankful for not having to spend thanksgiving back home. yay for canadian thanksgiving weekend being too short to merit flying home.

"Okay, I'm a moron. I thought you were saying that they ate Indian chiefs for dinner and that this one had the most meat on him." - [Unknown site tag]

I thought the same thing, don't feel bad.

"SmegHead!!" - seolta

man, I love Lister.

"i'm very gateful for my fine and buoyant rack. now that i think about it, several people are thankful for that. i bring joy to so many." - beansidhe

Yay for bouyant racks!!! :D My housemate is still annoyed that I can float in freshwater and he can't. Seriously. I mean, I knew my boobs were bountiful, but I didn't think they were THAT big... or useful, for that matter...

"I'm thankful for a certain coworker who is bound and determined to set me up with who she describes as her 'hot, 22-year-old girlfriends.'" - b7cy

hot 22-year-old girls are indeed good things.
not that i'm biased or anything.

[elsajeni.livejournal.com]

I'll take a dose of whatever makes people quit fighting down here in Texas as well, thanks. Texas-Texas A&M game, day after Thanksgiving. My family's evenly divided. It's been known to get violent.

[anna-sinistra.livejournal.com]

(-1, blaming your wrong answers on your nephew. Have you no shame? -AL)


No, no shame. Whatsoever.

[fizrep.livejournal.com]

"Correct Answer: Turkana Boy"

Ooh, that's right! That reminds me of when we went to the Museum of Natural History (this was after the Great Undersea Mollusc Movie Incident) and we came around the corner and I couldn't help msyelf when blurting out "Wanna piece of me, Turkana Boy?! I'll spork your ass!!"

Ah, good times. Good times.

[muzzyfeverlint.livejournal.com]

Squee! A quote and a +1 on my first post ever. I must try being nerdy more often.

Erm. r0xx0rz!!!11!!1!one!!1


~ Tanith, who ♥s TMBG.

[whiski_sour]

(Are you sure he wasn't trying to say that every time he came around you, he wanted to sleep with you? Just checking. -AL)

I'm fairly sure he didn't want to sleep with me. But even if he did, it wouldn't have worked out. He was a sweet, God-loving boy and my mother is Satan. I just have a feeling that might have caused some sort of riff.

Unless the sex was really good. Then no prob.

[chaosvizier.livejournal.com]

Yes, everything's ok when the sex is really good. No question.

Bad TV?!?

[jacesan.livejournal.com]

"The main character in the series Dark Angel suffered from a tryptophan deficiency, and was always drinking milk and eating turkey in order to be able to sleep. See, I do learn things from all of the bad TV I take in." - chrysoberyl

Dark Angel was one of the best series to come along in a while. Reality TV is bad.

Re: Bad TV?!?

[chaosvizier.livejournal.com]

Jessica Alba was hot, I'll give her that...

Re: Bad TV?!?

[angledge.livejournal.com]

Trust me, chrysoberyl watches plenty of TV that qualifies as "bad". Fashion Emergency comes to mind ...

But...

[jacesan.livejournal.com]

Was she hot enough for you to sit through Honey? :D

Re: But...

[toutetrien.livejournal.com]

You could have put Jessica Alba, Cindy Crawford and half the cast of The OC in that movie and I still couldnt sit through it.

Re: But...

[chaosvizier.livejournal.com]

No. Would not, could not.
I wouldn't mind if she replaced Halle Berry as Storm in any future X-Men movies, though. Roarrrrr.

Re: But...

[magnetgirl.livejournal.com]

BLASPHEMY!

Now I know Ororo has some Caucasian features, but she's still AFRICAN for christsakes! Don't go saying that someone ever WHITER than Halle Berry should play her...

::weeping bitter fangirl tears::

Re: Bad TV?!?

[anna-sinistra.livejournal.com]

Was? She is no longer hot?

Making bad career chices, maybe. But still hot.

Re: Bad TV?!?

[anna-sinistra.livejournal.com]

*choices

Re: Bad TV?!?

[chaosvizier.livejournal.com]

Ok, yes. Barring any freak accidents she might have had with mutant space toasters or something, most likely she's still pretty damn hot.

Re: Bad TV?!?

[jacesan.livejournal.com]

She is. You should see her in Honey. :P
