TRIVIA

TRIVIA

It’s a question for a quiz
A meeting of three roads
Romans had a name for it
Always in Latin, naturally
Today, a common source
But also Greek of course
Tri, a prefix meaning three
Road is Via, simple to fit
The answer uses no codes
Trivia, actually, it is!

At the closest point, Russia and the U.S.
Are less than two miles apart
If an altercation breaks out between them
Using bikes instead of tanks would be smart

Baby robins eat 14 feet of worms a day
Eeew! That's pretty gross to me
If you're a baby robin though you'd be anxious
To slither them down with glee

Cleopatra married two of

Rats can have over a million descendants
In eighteen months, talk about prolific
Don't know about all youse guys out there
But this guy finds that quite horrific

You'd produce enough gas for an atomic bomb
If you farted for 6 years and 9 months
Know a guy that could produce enough gas
For an atomic bomb by farting just once

A Marital Duel

Way back in medieval Germany     
If a married couples fight was bad
And no agreement, could be reached
A "Marital Duel" could be had 

To even the field, between them
From a hole, the man had to fight
With one arm tied to his body,
To subdue some of his might
 
The woman could move as

It's True, I Tell Ya

In ancient days, few knew how to write
So they would sign an "x" as their name,
Then kiss it to show sincerity
So the "x" , a kiss then became!

If anyone ever had regrets
Mr. Giocondo would be the one
He commissioned the Mona Lisa
Then refused it, when it was done!

Earnest Evans, a chicken plucker
Became a singer and changed

Trick Trivia

Trick Trivia is not my greatest force,
so it is time I think we should divorce.
The questionaire wants to know,
what’s in the middle of Glasgow -
then states - the answer is an ‘S’ of course.

Trivia Night

Trivia Night

I follow every backroad and freeway to see where they lead
And I look to the pages learned people read
I look at all the flea market uniquities and antiques,
And the things they’re liquidating at the chains and boutiques 
Wandering from the courtyards to the streets
I seek both patterns and something I haven’t already seen
I read

Premium MemberTrivia Rules

Ice hockey teams have their team dentist,
To put their teeth back into their head.
And crisp is a word said from the back to the front,
Of your mouth whenever it’s said.

The Sahara desert is seventy percent not sand,
And you can’t hum and whistle in time.
And the words donkey and monkey once sounded the same,
Because once they
