I’m eating lunch, hence I can’t really study (multitasking only goes so far), so I’m watching The Rich List that I taped last week, because I *heart* lists, so I thought, here’s a game show with lists, let’s check it out. And I could so totally pwn this show. Basically, two teams are given a list topic, and they each bid to see how many entries on the list they can come up with. If the team that bids highest gets the number of entries they thought they could, they win a point; if not, the other team wins a point. (Personally, I think the other team should have to finish out the list to get the point, but oh well.)
The first list? Tom Cruise movies. The one team bid 18 and barely got it. I listed out twenty myself before they started, including three or four they didn’t get. The next list would’ve been harder for me, Stephen King books or short stories, but they only got four and I could’ve gotten more than that. But the list they’re playing now? Best Picture Oscar Winners. Yes, I’d like to bid 76, please. Heh. They also flashed up James Bond movies, and I can get all of those as well. I need to go on this show. For once all my stupid trivial knowledge could be useful.

Had to do a Google search on “pwn” to fully understand the post, but we are good now! Yeah, you were always good at lists. So, how do you get on the show????

Yeah, let my video-game/netspeak in for a moment there. You can send in your name, address, and phone number into Fox to enter yourself. I wouldn’t have done quite so well on the second half of the show, though–Top 50 US Daily Newspapers? I maybe could’ve gotten eight or ten. If they’d stick with pop culture, I’d be golden.
