Fark Weird News Quiz (broug= ht to you by ox45tallboy) Another fun time on = the Quiz last week, and although we couldn't establish just how hot it was = outside, we did establish it was indeed hot. Luckily, the it'= s colder than the It's a Small World ride in mid-July in the 1000 club. On = the Quiz itself, The Third Man took top honors with a ridi= culous 1059, followed by uncledinAZ in second with 99= 6 and Mztlplx in third with 928. Blackst= one took fourth with 924, and senorbdub fini= shes out the top five with 923. The hardest question on the Hard Qui= z was over those wacky French and their job titles. Only 32% of quiztakers = knew that a newly created Cabinet position dealing with economic incentives= for foreign investment was somehow translated as "Minister of Attractivene= ss." I'm pretty sure the first English speakers who heard it never bot= hered to correct them, as "Minister of Attractiveness" just seems like a no= rmal French thing to have. The easiest question on the Hard Quiz was= over last week's demolition of the Palace at Auburn Hills, which was the l= argest NBA venue in the country for decades. 84% of quiztakers knew that sh= ould you manage to battle your way through 1988-2017 Detroit, you could wat= ch the Pistons play, and even get up close and personal with players such a= s the Indiana Pacers' Ron Artest. Interestingly, the Palace at Auburn Hills= was one of only two NBA arenas from the era which never sold naming rights= (the other was (is) Madison Square Garden). The hardest question on= the Easy Quiz was over a 1976 offer for a Beatles reunion, as told by Ring= o Starr at his recent online birthday party. Only 18% of quiztakers knew th= at the group turned down an astonishing £50 million after they l= earned their opening act would be some guy wrestling an 18-ft. great white = shark. It seems the group took W.C. Fields' advice and chose not to work wi= th children or animals (even if Fields never took his own advice). T= he easiest question on the Easy Quiz was over how the USDA classifies milk = products such as heavy cream, light cream, and half-and-half. 99% of quizta= kers knew that the only requirement to use these labels was to have a certa= in percentage of milkfat content. No word yet on heavy whipping almondcream= or half-and-soyhalf. If you missed the Quiz last week, you ca= n [catch up on t= he Fark Weird News Quiz here](3D").
