Re: TD 468 - 56
Agreed. But you might mention you tossed in an anagram of their whole name as well. I spent a little time thinking that "envies milk", and "etch zero mill" were show credits. And I was looking forward to renting "a strychnine toupee"squarekara wrote: ↑Tue Oct 19, 2021 9:09 pm Are you kidding me with that question #10?! That's absolutely insane. This TD is epic.
thanks for turning the TD crank with such aplomb!

Re: TD 468 - 56
Interesting development in the entrant list box above - I have received two entries under the handle / screen name "Woof".
Anybody want to claim the Tuesday entry (#7 in the box) under that name?
The person who posts as Woof here told me that they submitted their entry on Wednesday (#14) and knew nothing about the previous form which used that name.

Re: TD 468 - 56 [Q1-Q2 revealed]
That's so weird that I would do that as I have K.S. = Manhattan on my paper I used to write my answers. By the time I finished the set and went to the Google form my fingers must have had a mind of their own and ignored my written responses.

The school I used in Q1 is my wife’s alma mater and the town where we live. Entered my first TD in forever just for that question.
I visited the grave of my Q2 president (along with others listed) in July. Two personal connections already.

Re: TD 468 - 56 [Q1-Q4 revealed]
At least my TDs play relatively consistently. I had a mental coin flip between an answer that went unused (Margot Robbie) and an answer that turned out to be wrong. Yep, gotta a get a new mental coin.
Upside is that maybe TFB won't feel as lonely hanging around the all-sheep line.

Re: TD 468 - 56 [Q1-Q6 revealed]
I should host a TD again. That way I wouldn't have to worry about how badly I'm doing, like here.
I'd rather cuddle then have sex. If you're into grammar, you'll understand.
