Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 30 November

The ACT Police recently posted this photo of a fox who had somehow got his head into a packet of chips and couldn’t (or wouldn’t) get it out.  The officers managed to remove the packet and send him on his way.

This week you will get a bonus point if your team name is a caption for this photo.

Examples include:

“I didn’t see anything officer.”

“Hang on, these aren’t my glasses.”

“This feral is a lot less trouble than the ferals we usually deal with.”

“This new chicken flavour tastes like the real thing.”

Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 23 November 2014

You’ve probably heard of the Philae probe that landed on a comet recently.

If you were at your local iQ Trivia show last week there was a question about it.

Well we’re talking about it again.  There is no doubt that this is a great scientific achievement, but there are still plenty of things we haven’t managed to do.  Plenty of people have been complaining about this using the hashtag #WeCanLandOnACometButWeCant

This week if you join them and make your team name something that we can’t do even though we’ve managed to land on a comet, you will get a bonus point.

Examples: #WeCanLandOnACometButWeCant make a smart phone battery that lasts.

#WeCanLandOnACometButWeCant get people to understand the difference between “you’re” and “your”.

#WeCanLandOnACometButWeCant convince the self serve checkout that there’s nothing unexpected in the bagging area.

#WeCanLandOnACometButWeCant produce a viable hoverboard.

Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 16 November 2014

You may have noticed in the news that Julien Blanc’s recent business trip to Australia didn’t quite go as planned, with legions of people protesting his rape seduction workshops and his visa being revoked.  Man, all this “feminism” and “treating women like human beings” can be a real drag.

Now it looks like other countries are jumping on the bandwagon.  Soon a guy won’t be able to make a living coaching shy and awkward men on how to commit assault talk to women.

iQ Trivia is always keen to help out people who have been maligned like this, so this week, we’re asking you to chime in with some career advice.

If your team name is your suggestion for Julien Blanc’s next job, you will get a bonus point.

He has a broad skill set in abuse, harassment, intimidation, racist stereotyping, and not so casual sexism, which can surely be employed in countless other roles after his career as a sex offender executive dating coach comes crashing down.
