Upcoming Fark Parties See Farkers up clos= e in their unnatural habitats Thursday, June 20: [Buffalo, NY Fark Party](3D") -= Shakespeare in Delaware Park Fark Weird News Quiz Results (brought to you by o= x45tallboy) Yet another fun time on the quiz, including an = interesting discussion on "choose your own job title." Unfortunately n= o one made the 1000 club this week, so we won't be removing the plastic cov= ers from the furniture. I hate those things, because you can't move around = without it sounding like you farted. Anyways, kqc7011 came= out on top with 978, followed by Denjiro in sec= ond with 952 and Oliver Twisted in third with 915.&nb= sp;Tax Boy made fourth with 911, and edm= o wraps up the top 5 with 908. The hardest question on the = Hard Quiz was over which game publisher suffered a walkout by employees, wh= o were striking over forced arbitration. Only 16% of Quiztakers knew that E= pic Games publishes "League of Legends," which is the most popular onl= ine game in the world right now. The "freemium" game actually has 100 milli= on unique players per month, which is about the number of people who saw "A= vengers: Endgame" in its opening weekend. The easiest question on th= e Hard Quiz was over which former "Jersey Shore" cast member managed to pos= t Instagram updates while in the middle of a prison stint for tax evasion. = 83% of quiztakers knew that it was Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino who is c= urrently in the clink. Although if you ever watched the show, you wouldn't = be surprised at news that any of the cast members were incarcerated. The hardest question on the Easy Quiz was over Brad Pitt's brother Doug, a= nd his latest commercial spoofing the ending scene from "Se7en." Only = 46% of quiztakers knew that it was beer inside the box - specifically, the = Doin' Good Orange Wheat Ale from Mother's Brewing Company. I'm not sure wha= t it says about Fark that 54% of us associated "box" with "wine," but = I choose to believe it's because we think of Doug Pitt as a wine kind of gu= y more than a beer kind of guy. If you missed the commercial (and the hilar= ious TV-friendly dialogue edits), you can [check it out here](3D"). The easiest questio= n on the Easy Quiz was over Mt. Kilimanjaro and its home country looking at= a cable car system to accommodate tourists who wish to see the summit but = can't make the climb. 93% of quiztakers proved themselves geographically in= clined and knew that the highest point in Africa could be found in Tanzania= . Also in Tanzania, you can find the Gombe Stream National Park, where= Dr. Jane Goodall talked to chimps and wandered around in the mists. If you missed the Quiz, you can [catch up on it here.
