  1. Damn this status update bug. 

    Heres the question. Nice and easy today:

    Which of the following is not an Emily Dickinson poem?

    A. 1867

    B. 479

    C. 22

    D. 1163

    1. Octavia Heartstrings

      Octavia Heartstrings

      Let's see... Dickinson was alive in the year 1867, so that probably eliminates A. And 22 is a fairly common number, so I don't think it's C.

      I'll go with B.

    2. Totally Nyx

      Totally Nyx

      A and D sound like years. C could be anything. B seems both too high and too low to be a significant number, so I'm going with B.

    3. Samurai Equine

      Samurai Equine

      I'll go with A.

  2. Here comes yesterday's answer:

     Which of the following parables was not one of Jesus’ trilogy on redemption in the gospel according to Luke?

    A. Parable of the Lost Sheep

    B. Parable of the Leaven

    C. Parable of the Lost Coin

    D. Parable of the Prodigal Son

    This was...

    Spoiler

    B! The Parables of the Lost Sheep, Lost Coin, and Prodigal Son are all part of Jesus' trilogy on redemption in the gospel according to Luke. The Parable of the Leaven, however, is interpreted as having to do with the growth of God's kingdom, and is often paired with the Parable of the Mustard Seed.

    This week's winner is...

    Spoiler

    A tie between @Samurai Equine and @Totally Huey! Good work to you both!

    There may be no game next week on account of the hurricane coming through. To anyone who might be in the path of a storm like this, be safe and don't travel unless absolutely necessary. Keep looking up guys. Everything is cool.

    Which flash game character does this trash belong to?

    A. Hank J. Wimbleton 

    B. Pete

    C. Skinny

    D. Sly 

    This was…

    Spoiler

    D! The playable character from the William and Sly series, his favorite snacks are mushrooms, some of which are locked away, and he occasionally looks for shredded journal pages when he’s bored.

    Here comes today’s question:

     Which of the following parables was not one of Jesus’ trilogy on redemption in the gospel according to Luke?

      :sealed: My family would hate me for not knowing this... Really shows just how much of an Agnostic I am... C?

    2. Totally Nyx

      Totally Nyx

      Well I recognize every one of those, and I'm pretty sure the only one unrelated to redemption is B: the parable of the leaven. :love:

  4. Here comes yesterday’s answer:

    The song Phantom 309 has a verse based on the true story of which of the following truckers?

    A. Big Joe

    B. Pete Trudell 

    C. Peter Sutcliffe

    D. Rock  Hudson 

    This was…

    Spoiler

    B! The song is written about a ghost truck driver named Big Joe who sacrificed himself to avoid killing a camper full of kids. Pete Trudell serves as a partial basis for the story, choosing instead to crash into a wall and endanger himself than hit a bus full of kids. Trudell died in the accident but as far as I know the kids were okay.

    Here comes today’s question, and I have some funky trash for you:

      The Fiend is gone and there’s nothing in the company and I use that term loosely that interests me.

       

      AEW is so much superior to WWE.

      And they’re working with Impact, NJPW and the NWA.

    Except Absolute Radiance. I haven’t even touched that one yet.
