Thirsty Scholar Fiasco

And what a fiasco it was! Our team decided to take on another venue in our quest for trivial victory. However, we arrived at the Thirsty Scholar only to find out that they had postponed trivia INDEFINITELY. “Why, dear Lord, why?!” you ask (and so did we). Well, apparently trivia night “…wasn’t making any money. No one was drinking…..and the guy said he was taking bath.” (Seriously? I didn’t realize dudes bathed these days.) Meh. So unlike trivia-dude, our bubbles were bursting. Bad_peppers.gif - (5K)We were left to drown our sorrows and dashed hopes in food and libation. One of our teammates was almost taken out by a renegade jalepeno. Luckily, an arsenal of beer, water and a lemon slice managed to quell the attack. Afterwards, he ever so poignantly mused on how something “could cause so much pain but leave no physical damage.” Indeed, my friend, indeed.

Since there was no celebrity panty fiasco to be had, here are some links to other scholars who also did not host trivia last night:

Albert Einstein did not host a trivia night;

The Friedrich Nietzsche Society did not have trivia last night;

The Missouri Ozarks Mensa also did not have trivia last night;

Nor did Ogden Nash, but instead of posting a link to an informational website, I’ll just post one of his poems instead:
   The Cow
  The cow is of the bovine ilk;
  One end is moo, the other, milk.
