There have been many inane time wasters posted on CP. This is a form of Trivial Pursuit. We all think that we are uber smart. Myself included.
It was interesting to "test" myself against the machine. So I wanted to share with other idiots like me.
As I tested myself, I came to realize that trivia is biased upon generational trends. There are some basic components such as math/sciences that transcends age (what is special about April 14th), to generational (who was the acrobat in Batman and Robin).

All of which is entertainment. Same as watching football or reading a book. Pulling the engine out of my pick up is not the same. It is a need. Maybe for some folk, entertainment.

I am trying to bust 4000 now. Wasted 1 hour tonight:-)
Time slips away from you. "It is only 3 min"...bullcrap.
After playing a bit, some of the questions are repeaters. In my case, a lot of the song/musician/movie questions get me because I don't know too many in the last 10 yrs.
I am thinking about posting this in the main forum. God knows there are a lot of people wasting their time:-) Also, there are a bunch of smarty pants there as well. I posted it here because it is on Netflix....media. [Reply]
Got up to 4300, but can't make it past that point to get to 4500. Some of the questions are really unexpected. Seems very UK specific on many questions. [Reply]
