Vulture Culture posted:Someone put an Elizabethan collar on this fuckin parakeet I loved the miscommunication or whatever between his real story and what Alex thought the story was. "Your girlfriend calls you grandpa?" "Yeah one time my back hurt so she called me grandpa." Please keep giving us stories like this. "It says here you're a huge pizza fanatic, tell me more." "One time I ate a slice of pizza, Alex, and it was pretty good. Probably won't try it again, though."

Someone from my audition found me on Facebook and is messaging me asking me for tips as if I've been on the show. Nice lady but I've never been humble bragged at so hard in my life.

I got it about halfway through and thought it was a great FJ, the kind I'd expect exactly one contestant to get most episodes. My favorite is still the one where the clue amounts to royal wedding, 1976, king named Carl Gustaf (signifying Sweden), the song they danced to: Dancing Queen.

I knew the album was released in 1975 or 1976 and figured it couldn't be something obscure. Thought it was funny Eric bet the farm. He must have figured that as the old man of the group, he had an advantage. Timby posted:My guess was Shel Silverstein. Whiffed hard. I read something somewhere not long ago that Sendak had intended to draw something else. He botched it badly and decided they'd instead become "things."

Third place lady put on a master class in how not to bet on final Jeopardy. If you have exactly half of the second place player and the first place player is ahead by less than your total, for goodness sake don't YOLO and bet it all. A $0 bet would have won the game for her.

KICK BAMA KICK posted:lmao considered that for a second but sadly enough of a steely dan nerd to know the year wasn't right. Probably sent me down the right path though, "Turn up the Eagles, the neighbors are listening" yea, if you even knew aja existed, i imagine you also knew a lot about it and the clue's description didn't quite fit and that it was later. you'd also know that the odds of jeopardy asking anything about aja would've been astronomical. and goddamn, gently caress the eagles. abelwingnut fucked around with this message at 13:02 on Jul 26, 2019 |

A $0 bet would have won the game for her. it's crazy how many times i've seen people lose because they didn't know when to bet zero as third place. behind "betting enough to double your opponent +1" it's gotta be the most well known betting strategy if you're a fan of the show.

Macy's are selling some Jeopardy-themed t-shirts, and someone posted them on the Jeopardy contestants group. Thanks to GhostStalker for saving me over $20 by buying and shipping this one to Canada for me: It's definitely a lounge around the house kind of shirt but my husband wants me to wear it when I walk the dog tomorrow to see people's reactions haha.

Macy’s was asking for $26 shipping to Canada, and that was over twice the price of the shirt. I’m just glad you didn’t need to wait too long for it to arrive and that I could save you some money. Enjoy it!

This shirt is $11.25 with code "PREVIEW" according to the site. I'm certainly considering being that guy and wearing a Jeopardy! licensed t-shirt.
