Why do we love Trivia?

#1 Post by a1mamacat » Mon Sep 10, 2018 8:40 pm

watching promos for the new Alone season. They discussed being left in Mongolia, with only the makings of a yurt.

Acacia asks "what is a yurt?"

I explained it was a mobile Mongolian felt tent.

Three days later, watching Jeopardy, the answer was something like " a Mongolian tent"

I pointed to Acacia and said..the answer is?????

She stared, startled at me and said I don't fucking know"

I yelled YURT. It's a Yurt!!!

she yelled back "Oh of Course"

We are watching much more Jeopardy now.
