How Do You Rate:
1-3 Correct: Way to go! You have a life and thus have no need for useless information! But I'm willing to bet no one wants to be on your Trivial Pursuit team. You might want to read a newspaper every once in a while to pick up some random info.
4-6 Correct: You have a fair knowledge of useless trivia. You tend to come through with the more commonly known tidbits and facts when playing games, but probably haven't got a clue about the weight-ratio of an unladen swallow.
7-10 Correct: Congratulations! You regularly anchor your pub trivia team and watch far too much "Jeopardy" You scorn the people who take longer than three seconds to answer questions on "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?" and you kind of thought the chick on "Weakest Link" was hot because she was a trivia badass. Just take a moment to wonder: do you get invited to events for your friendship or for your wealth of useless knowledge? Trivia may just have taken over your life.
Check back next week for more trivia! And if you find errors in my questions, feel free to comment and I'll just have to tell you to get a life for having had taken the time to fact-check me. Just kidding! I'll gladly make any corrections if you're correct and I'm wrong!
