We don't get to decide what tastes g= ood to us and what doesn't, after all, or we wouldn't be so fat. You like s= tir-fried cockroaches in an apple juice reduction glaze served over foraged= kale jelly? Have at it, just please don't try to make me eat it and we're = good. So opinions about Thanksgiving side dishes are definitely highly subj= ective. However, the worst Thanksgiving side dish is any dish made with swe= et potatoes or yams with marshmallows on top.

On t= he Quiz itself, Two Dogs Farking made 1024, but we're not = counting him because he greenlit a number of these stories. Th= eMothership took top honors among non-staff members with 993, foll= owed by Evildog in second with 953 and c= oscausticevil in third with 952. The Third Man= g> made fourth with 952, and Glockenspiel Hero made i= t into the top 5 with 931. The hardest question on last week's Hard= Quiz was about the upcoming 2024 Olympic Games in Paris. Only 42% of quizt= akers knew that the event organizers had decided the mascot would be... a h= at. Not a French hat like a beret, but a red Phrygian cap such as worn by t= he leader in our generation's most well known allegory of socialism vs= . capitalism, "The Smurfs." I mean, I guess it's better than the unidentifi= able blobs used by Japan at the Tokyo Olympics, and it could have been wors= e, they could have gone with mimes. The easiest question= on last week's Hard Quiz was about who to go to to get your Holy Ears edib= les this holiday season, sure to make every forced family get-together some= what more tolerable. 90% of quiztakers knew the ear-shaped candies were a j= oint promotion between Evander Holyfield and Mike Tyson, who have shown tha= t even the fiercest rivals can bury the hatchet in the name of weed. Or cap= italism, it's open to interpretation. The hardest question on= last week's Easy Quiz was about Wendy's new Frosty flavor for the holidays= . Only 53% of quiztakers knew that if your Aunt Edna's apple cobbler she ma= kes with the canned biscuits every year doesn't do it for you. you can hit = up the drive-thru at your local Wendy's for a Peppermint Frosty. Which shou= ld be a perfect accompaniment to the peppermint schnapps you hid = in your coat pocket in case the Holy Ears take too long to kick in. The easiest question on last week's Easy Quiz was about which Canadi= an rocker celebrating his 77th birthday saw his first real success in an L.= A. band called Buffalo Springfield. 95% of quiztakers recognized Neil Young= as the artist. Incidentally, I have it on good authority that Neil's music= goes pretty well with peppermint schnapps Frostys and Holy Ears. = If you missed out last week, now's a great time to [ca= tch up on the Fark Weird News Quiz](3D".
