Fark Weird News Quiz (brought to you by= ox45tallboy) Another great time on the Quiz l= ast week, with four folks welcomed into our socially distant 1000 Club.&nbs= p;Evildog came out on top with 1025, followed by bud jones in second with 1011 and Auntie Cheesus in third with 1006. SiberWolf took fourth wi= th 1003, and WoolyManwich rounds out the top five wit= h 934. The hardest question on last week's Hard Quiz was over the Of= ficial State Drink of Rhode Island. Only 25% of quiztakers knew that enough= folks there put concentrated coffee and sugar in their milk to make "coffe= e milk" a thing. Oddly enough, the two main brands of "coffee syrup" there,= Eclipse and Autocrat, are made by the same company since 1991 when the lat= ter bought out the former. They should watch out, though, a new upstart cal= led Morning Glory is getting good reviews, and it's available throughout th= e Northeast. Good luck finding it in the South, people in my neck of the wo= ods put cold coffee on the same level they do hot tea. The easiest q= uestion on the Hard Quiz was about Barack Obama's unexpected houseguest dur= ing quarantine over the spring and summer. 90% of quiztakers knew that his = daughter Malia had brought her boyfriend home from college to meet the fami= ly just before the lockdown went in place, and since he's from England, he = had no way back home and so the family invited him to stay with them. I'm g= uessing the Secret Service detail was temporarily assigned to Malia's bedro= om door for the duration. The hardest question on the Easy Quiz was = over rock duo Twenty-One Pilots and their latest happening. Only 44% of qui= ztakers knew that they had recorded material for their latest video for the= ir single "Level of Concern," and then set up a system so that the video wa= s constantly updated by fans every 3 minutes and 42 seconds while the music= continuously played nonstop on YouTube. I do pity the poor Guinness judges= who verified it as a world record who were contractually obligated to sit = through 177 days of the same song on repeat, and I wish there were an expre= ssion for the way we should feel about their mental health after enduring s= uch a feat. The easiest question on the Easy Quiz was over the lates= t Eddie Murphy sequel we'll be seeing on Amazon Prime in March. 93% of quiz= takers knew that "Coming 2 America" has finally been completed, and I'm sur= e at least some were glad to see Arsenio Hall finally getting some work aga= in. The barbershop guys are back as well as James Earl Jones, but no word y= et on the Royal Bathers.
