To the jerk we caught cheating at Rogue’s trivia on Wednesday (on the Grinch question.)
How sad is your life? You actually packed your idiot girlfriend up in the car and drove all the way downtown, JUST to look answers up on your cell phone in a bar trivia contest? That is the saddest thing I’ve ever seen (and you still couldn’t win!).
You got off light, my friends told me to relax and not escalate it. Next time I won’t hand your phone back to you, I’ll shove it…
Anyhow. For all those who look up answers or use Midori to CHEAT on trivia nights…
Stay home dumb-asses! You’re ruining everybody’s night! —A trivial pursuer

in most functions, some idiot usually has to make the extra effort to ruin everything for everyone else.
I love trivia. Partly because i am a pit of useless information. but out of curiosity, what was the question?
Haha this is hilarious!! Someone cheating at some game meant to be just for fun and someone ready to beat him up for it! Can you imagine reading that in the news? A trivia night brawl!
Was there any prizes or money involved? If not, why are you seeing red OB?
What is even sadder than cheating at trivia is bitching about someone cheating at trivia. There will come a day when you and excitement will cross paths. Wait for it!
maybe they were quoting from firsthand experience about grinches.
“Next time I won’t hand your phone back to you, I’ll shove it…”
Next time KEEP YOUR HANDS TO YOURSELF and earn a modicum of respect from not-a-control-freak and not-a-bully types.
Qh my cod! Too funny! In a sad, pathetic little way…
another case where cell blockers would come in handy!
A – The question was “What was the name of the mountain the grinch lived on “. I still don’t know the answer, but I come by my ignorance honestly
B – There were 3 rounds, $20 worth of beer prize per round
C – Trivia night is an awesome way to break the week in half, so feel free to stay home or find a better thing to do than drinks, friends, and laughs on a Wednesday.
The point is that the guy deserved a solid punch in the neck for intentionally douching it up on his cell phone and irritating a hundred people’s fun little night out.
You think this was the only person doing this? Get your head out of your ass and buy $20 worth of beer…
google told me it was Mount Crumpet
I go to a trivia night in Bedford on Wednesdays, and they have very clear rules about cellphones/Blackberries. They ask you to put them away before they get started. There’s never any trouble and it’s a really fun night.
Here’s the deal;
I’ll accept the consequences that douchebags will cheat at trivia (and other things in life) and occasionally win…
…and they’ll accept that if they get caught by someone who despises cheaters, they will get the teeth the smashed out of their heads.
I can happily accept the consequences of playing fair in life, occasionally losing to douchebags who cheat, and in this case paying for some measly drinks…
…and they can happily afford to take a chance on me catching them cheating, and paying for some measly reconstructive dental work.
We’ll call it tough love.
Yeah well assault is still assault daveybuoy. I’d like to hear you explain that one to a cop, “but officer, he cheated!!!” Grow up
