Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. You know what I hate? Supercilious people. You know the ones that look at you funny. I HATE THAT! You can spot them by...

Answer: their eyebrows.

Supercilious comes from Latin for "eyebrow". Supercilious types look at others with raised eyebrows. I HATE THAT!

Answer: wowsers

In Australia a banana bender is someone from Queensland, a rellie is a relative, and a mozzie is a mosquito. I got bit by a mosquito the other day. I HATE THAT! Wowsers are much worse, though.

Answer: Archie

Ms Grundy was the homeroom teacher, she also taught English and Mathematics on some occasions.
Right at the moment the only characters in Archie comics who don't annoy me are Betty and Veronica. Sometimes I'll be reading a comic and somebody has ripped one of the pages out. I HATE THAT!

Answer: The Puritan

Puritans were called round heads because they killed off all the good hairdressers and couldn't get a decent haircut. The quote, by the way, was from "History of England". Puritan rule in England was brutish and boring, but apparently the English didn't mind too much because two hundred years later they invented Victorianism. I HATE THAT!

Answer: what now

The phrase "quid nunc" means "what now" in Latin. Which also means somebody who is very eager to learn and spread rumours and scandals. In other words a gossipmonger.
That's because busybodies always want to know other people's business. All together now... I HATE THAT!

Answer: officious

"Marked by excessive eagerness in offering unwanted services or advice to others." (American Heritage Dictionary.) Synonyms: interfering, intrusive, meddlesome, meddling, obtrusive. (Roget's Thesaurus.) The print in my reference books is really really small. I HATE THAT!

Answer: Level 8 - The Maleboge

Of course, HATING people causes one to end up with the wrathful, playing king of the hill in a burning lake for eternity. I can't help but wonder if spending too much time on the computer counts as gluttony, too. I better go give some money to beggars-- soon as I finish this quiz. Ugh... I HATE THAT!

Answer: Nova Scotia, Canada

"Bluenose" was the name of a fishing and racing schooner that was built in 1921. It was very popular in the province and became an icon and symbol. The schooner was wrecked in 1946.
There seems to be no connection between the annoying sort of bluenose and the Canadian sort. Ambiguity... confusion... I HATE THAT!

9. There's an colorful American term that refers to dumb, annoying, restrictive, archaic regulations. I HATE THAT! What color laws are they?

Answer: blue laws

Blue laws or Sunday laws were enacted to restrict or completely ban commercial and entertainment activities on Sundays. This was because Sunday was originally set aside for religious purposes and the laws were there to enforce the sanctity of Sunday.
It is still practiced in various parts of the World.
A typical blue law is making it illegal to do business on a Sunday. Like I'll want to buy some beer Sunday morning while all the squares are at church and I can't. I HATE THAT!

Answer: Martha Stewart

Martha Stewart was a retail businesswoman with expertise on the home management and hospitality sectors. She had her own TV shows, authored books and wrote in various newspapers. In 2005 she was convicted and served a 5-month prison sentence for insider information.
The best thing about "South Park" is that it often annoys the people I find the most annoying and it picks on their sort relentlessly. Hey, I don't know about you, but I feel a lot better now.
