I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

Missed one over the weekend. If I got that question again I'd still probably miss it. A science question which I usually do pretty well on but the answers seem really vague and disconnected to the question to me.
That about finishes any chance of a top ten finish for the month. On to August!

Looks like I'm going to lose the title this month on a bullshit question. It didn't even make sense, the way it was worded.
Apparently they wanted to know which of the choices was the title of a 1972 album by Deep Purple. But that's not what they asked. Oh, well...Which 1972 album was "Deep Purple"?
The correct answer was:
"Machine Head"

That is a true bs question. Tonight, mine was about silage. I got it right.

I have a disorder where I try to read from both directions at the same time. So my brain helpfully fills in words where there aren't any. In timed (and sometimes untimed) questions that is usually my downfall, but here it would have been an advantage as I would have just filled in the word "by" automatically and never even known it wasn't there.TheConfessor wrote:Looks like I'm going to lose the title this month on a bullshit question.

Suitguy is not bitter.
feels he represents the many educated and rational onlookers who believe that the hysterical denouncement of lay scepticism is both unwarranted and counter-productive
The problem, then, is that such calls do not address an opposition audience so much as they signal virtue. They talk past those who need convincing. They ignore actual facts and counterargument. And they are irreparably smug.
