What is a loving tuba?

Rarely will I say a completely blank answer isn't the dumbest thing you could put, but honestly... A loving TUBA?

Where the gently caress did that come from?

I just assumed he had no clue and went for a joke answer

Not a very good one, mind, but I have a hard time believing he wrote Tuba with any sincerity

Guys, find a woman who looks at you the way GhostStalker looks at every bald, obese, single 58 year old accountant from Tulsa who managed to win $4,000 by not wagering on a Final Jeopardy triple stumper.

I could see the new champ rubbing some people here the wrong way, but he seems pretty cool to me. Marty could've made a decent comeback if he hadn't missed that Daily Double, and while he battled back, Frank just built up too much of a lead that he needed to crash hard in order to lose this game.

Also, Jeopardy's website has stated that the next contestant tests are gonna be early next month, March 6-8, half a week before the 4 year anniversary of my tape date. Sign up for them if you think you can do well enough to get on the show. Am still willing to give out contestant referral emails if you think it'll help. Got a couple of Goons into the show that way, it could work out for you too!

Except Austin owns while Buzzy is annoying as gently caress, you have a weird radar for "enjoyable"

My favorite wrong answers are the "two categories left in Double Jeopardy and desperately trying to get out of the negative" wrong answers.

It's always pathetic as hell when someone can't make it to Final Jeopardy due to being in the negative.

Plus then the judges shake you down for the money you owe. :v:

I had my interview audition yesterday!!

It was super fun. There were probably around 30 people there; I was one of four women. We started off with the fifty-question test, which went really well for me. I think I got around 45/50, my guessing game for the answers I didn't know was on point, I fluked about three of them.

Then we did the audition itself. I was part of the first group that had to go up, but Corina, our contestant co-ordinator, was amazing at making people feel relaxed.

Overall it went pretty well, but I have absolutely no illusions about the fact that I'm unlikely to be picked to go on the show this round, just from a statistical perspective. But it was super fun and I hope I get invited to another one in 18 months or so.
