LJ Daily Answers: 20 October 2008
Oct. 20th, 2008 09:23 amHappy Monday to everyone! It's a big week here, thanks to the hundreds of new people who have stopped by to check out the community and even take a chance at playing the quiz. You are all welcome, and thanks for playing!
Before we start, let's give a big birthday shoutout to one of my closest friends,
Still, the quiz must go on. So, on we go!
1. What actor played Sam's holographic guide on "Quantum Leap"?
"OMGWTFCYLON!" - 10 colonials. Don't worry; we'll get you too.
"Doctor Wellington Yueh" - 6 of you
(+1 to all of you, Dune. -B)
"That's Dean Stockwell. Although he was infinitely creepier as Dr. Huey in Dune. Or maybe I'm confusing him with Huey Lewis and the News..." -
(...except you. -CV)
"It wasn't the Doctor from Star Trek Voyager, was it? I like that guy." -
(Nope. Al wasn't that snooty. -B)
"Dean Stockwell. Even though I was twelve, I could still see the faint slash vibes hovering around Sam and Al." -
"Yoda. All other guides are posers." -
"One of the Baldwins. Had't've been." -
(No way it could have, this show didn't suck. -B)
"If you'll be my bodyguard, I can be your long lost pal. I can call you Betty, and Betty when you call me, you can call me Al. Call me Al!" -
(+1, Paul Simon. -B)
"His pornographic guide was Ron Jeremy." -
"Considering I haven't seen Quantum Leap, I'm just going to say what 'Sam's holographic guide' makes me think of and say Jensen Ackles. Though holographic guide right now is sounding kind of pornographic." -
(Oh yes, and a -1 to all of you who read that as 'homographic' guide. Not because I have anything against the LGBT community (not to be confused with the LJDQ community), but because you all have dirty, dirty minds. -B)
"You know, the fact that I know this answer weirds me out entirely. I mean, not only did I actually watch Quantum Leap as a kid, but I actually had my first sex dream about Dean Stockwell. Not Scott Backula, like other prepubescent girlie sci-fi freaks, nooo, Dean Stockwell for me. TMI? I'm new to this quizzing thing. How much is too much?" -
(I don't know if there is too much, but you should get this week's TMI Award! +1 for you! -B)
"Ru Paul, also gave cross dressing advice during the episodes where Sam leaped into a woman's body." -
"Jiminy Cricket said let your conscience be your guide. Sam's conscience is his holographic guide that just happens to take on the form of another man." -
"I call shenanigans. Gollum guided Sam, yes, but he was neither holographic nor Quantum of Solace. Although Daniel Craig hiking up Mount Doom leads to many wonderfully filthy jokes. Mmm." -
"I didn't know he had a name, but it has to be that guy that sits in between me and my boyfriend on the 'Haunted Mansion' ride. 'Don't close your eyes and don't try to hide' is damn right." -
"Arnold J. Rimmer. He plays all holograms, even the doctor from the annoying Star Trek spinoff whose easily forgetable name I've forgotten." -
(+1, Red Dwarf -B)
"Sorry, but I have a selective reading ability. You say "holographic", and the only thing I can think of is this." -
"Obi-Wan Kenobi, in full transparent sparkly-mode." -
"Whats the deal with Scott Bakula. The guy … managed to make Star Trek boring." -
(Don't you blaspheme in here! Don't you blaspheme in here! – LL)
"I mean really. Is there anyone in Hollywood not named Gutenberg that is less a celeb?" -
(Scott Bakula can totally kick Steve Gutenberg's ass. -B)
(
"Dean Stockwell who played in The Manchurian Candidate with Liev Schreiber who played in Scream with Neve Campbell who played in Wild Things with Kevin Bacon." -
Correct Answer: Dean Stockwell
2. What city in Eastern Russia takes its name from the phrase "Rule The East"?
"In Soviet Russia, East rules you!" - oh so very many of you
"Eastern Russia has cities? I thought it was just one big exile camp for all the kids who didn't get along with little Joey Stalin." -
"All I know about Eastern Russia is Irkutsk, Yakutsk, and Kamchatka, and I don't think any of those are it. Thanks for nothing, Risk." -
(All you needed to learn from Risk was not to get involved in a land war in Asia. – LL)
"That must be where the confusion came from, Georgia being an east coast state and all." -
"I don't know, but surely the Wolverine's have overrun it by now..." -
(+1, Red Dawn. -CV)
"Hmm, could it be Gozilla? Last time I check he was pretty much kicking the East's ass so it must be Godzilla." -
"Knowing the russians something like 'stavilsativastovostock formerly known as dictatorville formerly known as other dictatortown formerly known as stratford-upon-avon'" -
"Hmm, well the Russians are much like the Welsh in that they are big fans of consonants but not so much when it comes to vowels so how about Rulthst?" -
"Home of Count Dracula's summer repertory theater." -
"Is there more to that phrase? Such as 'Rule the East' and you will have rule over the sun and create all the time zones or something?" -
"I thought that it was just Moscow and everything else was like... wilderness. Until you get to Siberia. And then there are tigers." -
"The Land Of The Sea Cucumber Gods." -
(It's funny 'cause it's true. But -50 for web cheating, 'cause who the hell would know that? Besides 2 other web-searching Quizlings? – LL)
"I would say Moscow but I'm pretty sure that means 'Got Milk?'" -
"I'm gonna say 'Electrougli' because it *is* a Russian city, and I think it has a cool name." -
"It used to be Saurongrad, but it’s been re-renamed to St Eviloverlordsburg" -
"Bialystok. Birthplace of that guy Max -- you know Max, dont you? -- who famously once said, "I am the author. You are the audience. I outrank you!" (On second thought, if you substitute 'mods' for 'author' and 'quizlings' for 'audience' ... erm, right.) " -
"Estrogen- no, that's 'rule the men.'" -
"Philligrad, which actually means 'Rule the NL East'" -
"WestsIIIIIIIIIIIDistan." -
"Stockton-on-Tees. It's a little-known fact that this small English town is also an honorary Russian city, in commemoration of an uplifting holiday Karl Marx spent there in 1863." -
"There's a Stockholm in Russia now?" -
"Palingrad, named because they can see America from their house." -
"i wish it were Arcangelesk. because that is a badass city name. a friend of the family claims it was named that because half the town saw a big badass Angel with a sword (retelling sadly does not say if it was a ninja swordor just a garden variety sword)." -
"... They renamed a city LiveJournal?" - bitybastardbits.insanejournal.com
Correct Answer: Vladivostok
"It didn't actually 'take' the name. It DOMINATED the name and the name gave itself to the city." -
3. What was the first major discovery of silver ore in the U.S. called?

"The River of Ore, or Orerio." -
"Ore-Ida." -
"The Beverly Hillbillies....no, wait, that was Oil." -
"I thought that said silver ogre." -
"The Day WoW Players Shat Themselves. When they released the Silver Orc as a character? We were all tired of looking of that puke-green. Not to be confused with the item of similar name, of course." -
"Lincoln's Nose. (Silver was actually found in the nose of Lincoln on Mount Rushmore.)" -
(Best. Booger. EVAR. -CV)
"Ooooh, Shiny!" - 29 of you
"I know that there's a Silver city (in Colorado, maybe?), but it can't be that because it isn't stock related!! I'm Australian, cut me some slack here!" -
(...and seven minutes later...)
"Doy! Silver city is in New Mexico! Way to alienate the locals, pardner! It's not even the right answer! I suck!" -
"The Treasures of Liberace's Tomb." -
(That word "treasures" that you are using... I do not think it means what you think it means. -CV)
"What the hell is this grey stuff? Dammit, get back to work!" -
(Ironically, that is not far from the truth. Raw silver ore tended to be bluish/blackish, and dirtied up their machines. Only later did they realize that the stuff was unprocessed silver. Suckers. -CV)
"Silver ore, silver ore,
You're not as shiny as we thought you were
Never fear, we'll melt you down
Refine you, shine you, make a crown.
Then you'll sparkle like little stars
As drag queens wear you to gay bars" -
"We can still spend this for whores, yes/yes?" -

"Gold Rush? Only without the gold, but still with dead Indianas." -
"*snickers**giggles**inserts dirty joke here* Oh wait, that said Cornstock, not Cornhole. Grad school is warping my mind." -
(I think your mind is more warped than you realize. -CV)
"The location of this find was a closely guarded secret, the miners had to be guided there by encrypted clues on map fragments scattered across the region... Read Dan Brown's new book about this... 'The Lomstock Code'" -
"The Compost Lode, as I managed to call it during a project in 7th grade." -
"Comstock, the geologist's Woodstock." -
"Not to be confused with Dot-Comstock, which everyone thought was way more vaulable than it turned out to be." -
Correct Answer: The Comstock Lode
"This is unrelated but what is the name of the little bird thing on Charlie Brown?" -
(That's a pretty good question... -CV)
4. Max Yasgur's farm was the site of which musical event?
"Wait... was that the name of the bird from Charlie Brown?" -
(See? That wasn't so hard. -CV)
"Common sense says Woodstock but I'm stuck on his name. Only an masochist immigrates and keeps Yasgur when they could change it to something like Yawesome." -
"Battle of the Emo Bands" -
(That was the second time around. -B)
"Despite the Slappy-and-Skippy skit on Animaniacs, neither The Who nor Yes played Woodstock." -

"Animal Farm 2: The Musical!" -
(Two acts good, four acts better! - B)

"'Cockstock', a little-known offshoot of another famous concert event, except this time with roosters." -
(Ok, you got me there. -B)
"Smelly Hippie Fest: The original. I'm excited to see how Eugene Levy does justice to the great American hero." -
"Jagerfest? Does that have music, or just Jager? Uh... Octoberfest?" -
"Charlotte's Web? I remember some pig singing." -
(That's no way to talk about Joe Cocker. -CV)
"Old McYasgur's Poultry Hearts Club Band, with their famous rendition of E-I-E-I-O." -
"If you invested in Wood stock, you would be better off today than if you invested in GM stock. Had to get the economic snark in there somehow." -
"Woodstock. the original. the one that counted. oh wait. it wasn't Livestock, was it? Farm Aid?" -
"Woodstock! Maybe not, but what other musical events are there?" -
(No others, so long as you don't count Altamont, Monterey Pops, Lillith Fair, 10,000 Lakes, SXSW, Lollapalooza, Isle of Wight, etc. -B)

"The yearly Transylvanian Convention, complete with a Time Warp and Science Fiction Double Feature." -
"I saw 'Yasgur', but heard Nazgul. Now I've got musical hobbits going through my head a la Chippendales, and it's not happy. (Or is it?)" -

""Woodstock: Three Days of Peace and Music". (Or more accurately, "Three Days of Sex, Drugs and Music, with Bonus Rain and Naked Mud-Wrestling".)" -
"War and Peace." -
"Woodstock, for which I am still bitter about my parents wimping out about the traffic over, and not taking me there. We got so close! I coulda been one of the Woodstock generation! But no!" -

5. What Guy Ritchie film starts with a crooked poker game, goes on to the acquisition of antique guns, a lot of weed, and a traffic warden, and finishes with Jason Statham not shooting people?
"If you forget the answer...I'll kill ya'.
If you use wikipedia or look it up inna book...I'll kill ya'.
If you just make up some smarmy shite in place of the answer...well actually that's a bit of alright, but if it's not funny...I'll kill ya.
Now do you understand the rules of LJ Daily Quiz? Cause if you don't...I'll kill ya'." -
"Admit it: you just threw this one in because it involves Sting." -
(We admit nothing – CV&AL&LL&B)
"Let's take a wild guess. It's black comedy, isn't it? Gah!!! On the tip of my tongue! Is it relatively recent? The title sounds amusing? Does it have the words 'black' or 'brother' or 'brotherhood' or 'yo mama' in it? I give up...just look at my tongue and see if you could find it there." -
"His honeymoon video with Madonna." -
(It's the divorce video, actually. – LL&CV)
"I bet the title is either a really sexy sounding adjective and then a ruggedly macho plural noun, or some sort of random non-conversational phrase." -
"According to the internets, Jason Statham is a huge fan of 'So You Think You Can Dance.' That loses him major tough-guy cred right there." -
(But ups his cred with the wimmins. Mmmm, "dancing" with Jason Statham… - LL)
"Hi, I'm Lock, this is my brother Barrel, and this is my other brother Barrel." -
(+1, Newhart. -CV)
"Something about two unloaded guns, AKA The Most Boring Film Ever. Odd how pot, theft, English thuggery and violence can be so damn boring but they manage it. It's like 'Resovoir Dogs' if it was written by the producers of Dora the Explorer." -
"Lock, Stock, and Two Toking Wardens" -
"Lock, Stock, and Snatch (sounds like a weekend with my ex-wife)" -
"Lock, Stock and 2 Smoking Barrels. One of my favourite parts of that film was the stoned chick everybody'd forgotten about until she offed someone. Gotta respect that." -
"Guy. That's like naming your pet dog Puppy. His parents were not very creative." -
"Many a hilarious porn movie name has been based on this..." -
"Is that Snatch? I just remember Brad Pitt and lots of angry men, although I went and searched up 'Snatch' later only to discover that Brad Pitt is not the internet's highest priority." -
"'I feckin' hate Pikeys.' Okay, wrong Guy Ritchie flick, but how often do I get a chance to throw that one out there, hm?" -
"I'm having interesting mental images of Statham in a poker game surrounded by dogs smoking weed. Mayhaps I should paint it, then sell it to an art gallery. They buy crap like that, right?" -
(They buy far worse crap than that. Knock yourself out. -CV)
"That movie was so fucking British, it shit the Queen. I don't think I understood half of it, and it still made me lol." -
"...but hat can't already have been done! I was going to write that for NaNo!" -
"Lock, Stock and omg it's Jason Statham and he's so frigging smokin'." -
"Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. (Transporter was better -- where else will Jason Statham get shirtless and oily with a bunch of muscly guys, outside of gay porn?)" -
"It's better when Jason Statham gets shirtless, and then gets oiled up and kicks people in the head instead of shooting them." -
"Why would Jason Statham have any time to make a movie? He's too busy having sex with me in my dreams." -
"Mmmmmmmmmm, Jason Statham. I would give up my husband for him any day!!!" -
(Get in line! – LL)
"Jason Statham's Day Off" -
"I don't believe this film exists. There is no way Jason Statham can be in a film and not shoot people." -
"'When Hell Freezes Over'. They were going to make a sequel called 'When Pigs Fly', but it was decided that two movies with Jason Statham not being a gun-weilding badass was tampering with the natural order of things too much." -
"This is a trick question. There is no situation possible where Jason Statham doesn't shoot people. Jason Statham shoots people when he sneezes. Jason Statham shoots people when he uses the restroom. Jason Statham shoots people when he eats a sandwich. Jason Statham shoots people when they watch his movies. Jason Statham shoots people to celebrate having shot people. It's what the man does. Jason Statham : shooting people :: Chuck Norris : kicking you in the face" -
Correct Answer: Lock, Stock, And Two Smoking Barrels
"Now that he's divorcing Madonna, I look forward to good films from him again." -
6. If you could invest in anything at all, what would it be?
(A large number of you would invest in porn. Please note that fuzzy monster puppets are not renowned for their insider trading skills. -CV)
"chicken porn" -
(At least you specified. -CV)
"The NYSE (New York Stock Exchange) boasts the highest lifetime gain in sheep. Since the SYSE's founding in 1792, brokers have kept at least 30% of their money in sheep trading, second only to whale oil trading." -
"Microsoft, ca. 1986" -
"Pumpkins. But I'd sell before Hallowe'en, before!!" -
"Let's go with 'chocolate cake' for 1000, CV. I hope to God it's a Daily Double." -
"I would invest in pizza, I like being able to invest $10 and get Pizza back. There is rarely a disappointing return when it comes to pizza." -
"like my hsitory teacher said once, SCRATCH-N-SNIFF BOOKS! imagine how amazing would it be to have thsoe for history... smell the flithy 1800s industrial cities!" -
"Monkeys. You can never go wrong with monkeys." -

"I would invest in the cure for those poor emo kids who put on pants too tight and now cannot get out. Poor bastards might not ever get laid." -
(Do we actually want them to get laid and reproduce? Really? -CV)
"kittens. Do you know how fast those little furballs breed? If we could curtail the Liberal Media's Neuter Your Pets program, kitten stock would soar exponentially, with enough power to yank the market out of its crash and restore us all to veritable kings of the world economy, before our inevitable yet incredibly adorable demise as the Earth runs out of space and resources and we literally drown in fluffy, meowing investments. Definitely a better way to go than just hopping out the window like those unimaginative stockbrokers." -
"Whichever company makes golden parachutes. They should be doing good business by now." -
"LOLcats. LOLcats are the currency of the internet." -
"Eeeeeeeevil." -
"A parking garage - for serious. Hike your prices as high as you need, a few minimum-wage employees, and what utilities do you really need to pay? Oh no, the lights in this parking garage don't work... they'll still park there." -
"My own personal Satellite of Love, because watching B-movies with two wise cracking robots forever seems less depressing than watching the Dow Jones fall again." -
"Human Stupidity (NYSE symbol: DUH). I swear, this stock splits every couple of years or so." -
"Death. Everyone dies, its constant financial gain!" -
"My boobs. I might have to make a living off them so I should probably start keeping them up now." -
"the US Government because by the end of October they'll own all of Wall Street and all of the financial institutions in the US...That would make either a trick, or a treat...or both." -
"Post-Its. Do you have any idea how much money those people make? For real." -
(+1, Romy and Michele's High School Reunion. -CV)
"The Space Elevator!" -
(I'm more interested in the Space Escalator. If only for the endless looping of the muzak version of "Stairway To Heaven". -CV)
"I'd actually invest in jet boots. Kick your enemies and barbeque them at the same time!" -
"I would invest in a company which produced L.E.D. scroll boards which would sit above the back windshield of your car in which you could verbally enter or physically type out (your passenger would do this, of course, since you'd be intensely focused on the road :D) what you really think about that guy behind you's purple high beams that he just cannot figure out how to turn off, or the person riding so close behind you that if they smiled you'd be able to see the broccoli still stuck in their teeth from lunch!" -
(I'll take ten. -CV)
"Invest in land because they've stopped making it. Don't invest in the future, because they never stop making it..." -
"Ramen Noodles or Mac and Chesse. When you have no money, what else can you eat?" -
"Definitely Jason Statham. The man is a sexy god. Anyone else psyched about Transporter 3?" -
(After I saw Transporter 2 with two excited female friends, I dubbed this series "The Mansporter". -CV)
"a unicorn. a fire breathing one. cause that would be awwwesome!" -
(Trogdor was a horse. I mean, he was a dragon-horse. Or maybe he was just a dragocorn. But he was stil TROGDOR!!!! -CV)
"Chocolate. No matter how bad the economy gets, women will always need chocolate." -
"Bond futures. The way the stock markets are fluctuating, the only certain thing is that James Bond will survive." -
Correct Answer: "Entropy. Unlike all those pump-and-dump scams, this one really is guaranteed to go up forever." -
And that's the way it goes. The (ever-tenuous) theme this week was "stock", because nothing says theme like semi-topical events. Ironically, the Guy Ritchie/Madonna thing happened after we posted this quiz. That was not our fault. Sting's presence... well, ok, that might have been our fault. No dirty hippies were harmed in the making of this quiz, unfortunately. I'll try better next time.
Thanks again to all the new players and watchers; hope you enjoyed this week's offering, and of course we encourage you to stick around and play some more! Also, pimp the quiz out to your f-lists if you like it. Word of mouth is the way!
And extra thanks to our long-term guest moderator
Rock On!

Date: 2008-10-20 03:35 pm (UTC)Okay, this is weird...my sudoku icon was somehow replaced with one of Calvin and Hobbes hugging. This atrocity has been rectified, but does anyone know something about this that I don't? Hmmm?

Date: 2008-10-20 04:12 pm (UTC)Also: I take issue with the answer for question 6. It's all about supply and demand - you can't make good money selling entropy because there's lots of it all over and it'll keep making itself. (That was the weirdest sentence to type, srsly.) Something like an honest politician would be rare and therefore valuable. (But possibly not so in demand, so maybe not.) I really liked the pizza answer though! :)

Date: 2008-10-20 04:21 pm (UTC)1. Read half of this, laughing so hard it hurt.
2. Took a shower where I relived some of the finer quotes here, and hit myself against the too-close walls of the shower.
3. Got hot chocolate, then snorted as I drank some thinking about the joy that is having this in my inbox when I got up this morning.
4. Finished reading these and not wanting to go back and read more.
Thanks LJDQ. I may fail at comp sci, but I rule at wasting time.
