Mixed 5 Q. Very Difficult Trivia Questions
1. When H. B. Reese introduced his peanut butter cups in 1928, what was the official product name?

From Quiz The 2,261st Mixed General Trivia Quiz

Answer: Penny Cups

H. B. Reese launched his now-legendary peanut butter cups under the simple name 'Penny Cups'. You can probably guess how much each one cost. Reese had previously worked on a dairy farm owned by Milton Hershey, before going out to find fame and fortune in the candy-making business. He did well. As it turned out, mixing chocolate and peanut butter turned out to be a civilization-changing event. I dedicate this question to my wife, whose life force is sustained primarily by this glorious creation.

2. On the tv show 'The Simpsons', what is Bart's definition of a dumb, balding North American ape with no chin?

From Quiz General Knowledge

Answer: kwyjibo

Bart, Homer, Marge, and Lisa were playing scrabble. Bart wanted to use all his words so he could get the game over with and win. Homer questioned the definition of the word and Bart gave him that definition. Homer realized Bart was making fun of him and attacked him.

3. Who became globally famous in the 1980s for the catchphrase "I pity the fool"?

From Quiz The 2,264th Mixed General Trivia Quiz

Answer: Mr. T

It all started in 1980 during the "America's Toughest Bouncer" competition on an NBC show called "Games People Play". A young man named Laurence Tureaud was interviewed before facing Tutefano Tufi in the final match. Speaking to Bryant Gumbel, Tureaud said he "felt sorry for the man" he had to fight. Sylvester Stallone later saw this appearance and loved everything about the guy. He cast him in "Rocky III", where Tureaud, now known as Mr. T, delivered the immortal line "I pity the fool!" The rest is history. (And yes, Mr. T won the match against Tufi.)

4. Who was the first person to harness steam-power in 1711?

From Quiz Words, Last Words and Famous People

Answer: Newcomen

This was easily six decades before James Watt considered the notion of steam power. Newcomen was also not the first to create this notion. The ancient Alexandrian scientist Heron came up with a simple steam engine in the first century A.D.

5. What was the plant in Mesoamerica that was often used as currency by the Mayans?

From Quiz Odd but Generally Fascinating...

Answer: Cacao

18. In 2019, paleontologists unearthed the largest fossilized dinosaur turd yet discovered near Buffalo, South Dakota. What dinosaur is believed to have produced it?

From Quiz The 2,261st Mixed General Trivia Quiz

Answer: T. rex

It weighed in at 20.5 pounds (9.28 kg). In length, it measured an impressive 26.5 inches (67.5 cm). By all accounts, it was a majestic turd... or 'coprolite', as scientists call it when trying to sound smart in front of non-scientists. But I hear you. What makes them believe it came from Tyrannosaurus rex? You don't think scientists did imaging tests on a turd that big? I mean, wouldn't YOU? Inside, they saw large, crushed bones, too big to have been eaten by any other dinosaur known to have been in the area. The T. rex skeletons found nearby may also have provided a clue. The paleontologists named it "Barnum", because of course they did. It's currently located in Williams, Arizona. You can find it at the... um, Poozeum, the self-proclaimed 'Dinosaur Poop Museum and Gift Shop'. I only wish I was making that up.
