Every weeknight my husband watches Jeopardy and I join him on occasion. I have trouble answering a lot of the questions, or questioning a lot of the answers, as you do on Jeopardy. Sometimes I’ll be familiar with a category and start thinking of possible answers before the questions are even asked. By doing so, I manage to make Jeopardy the least fun activity ever.
Let’s say someone picks the category Bible Books By Story. Here’s what it would be like to watch with me:
Some loser on the show named Sheila or something dumb: I’ll take Bible Books for $200 Alex.
Me: Ugh don’t call him Alex.
Alex: A great fish swallows a reluctant prophet.
Me: Who is John?
Sheila: Who is Jonah?
Alex: Correct!
Me: Oh yeah. I knew it started with a ‘J’.
Sheila: Let’s continue the category for $400.
Me: Yes, let’s.
Alex: Moas and boas are loaded into Noah’s ark.
Me: John?
Sheila: What is Genesis?
Alex: Right!
Me: Oh yeah. I forgot about that one.
Sheila: Bible Books for $600 please.
Alex: 3 friends are thrown into a fiery furnace.
Me: I’m gonna go with John.
Sheila: What is Genesis?
Alex: No sorry.
Me: HAH you already guessed Genesis you loser. Geeze Sheila, figure out the Bible already.
Sheila: Bible Books $800.
Alex: Shamgar, one of the title arbiters, kills 600 Philistines with an ox goad.
Me: Wtf is an ox goad? I’m pretty sure that was John.
Sheila: What is Judges?
Alex: Yes!
Me: Calm down Alex.
Sheila: Finish the category please.
Alex: Thomas doubts the other Apostles have really met the risen Jesus.
Me: John?
Shelia: Idk
Alex: Ooo sorry. The answer is John.
Me:
