Quiz Corner

April 27th, 2009

I’ve worked out what we’re missing here at Da Beans. We’re like a glossy magazine, full of interesting articles and views. But we don’t have a nice page where you can sit down with a warm beverage and a pen and stretch your brain muscles.

That’s why I have put together the first Beans Quiz Page. Enjoy!

    Yay! huzzah for me. I won, and according to the other side of the page, I set a new record of 6.5 hours!

    What?!?

    I thought I only knew where red was kept! How did you find it?

  • 3. Kevil  |  April 28th, 2009 at 11:00

    You left under the cushion on the sofa, it wasn’t difficult.

  • 4. Chris  |  April 28th, 2009 at 12:00

    Shh! Don’t give away all the answers!

    Kev – well done on your record time. Question 4 is obviously very tricky because the number of lemons is changing all the time. Well done for pinpointing the exact figure.

  • 5. Ian Mac Mac Mac Mac McIver  |  April 29th, 2009 at 08:49

    I once had every single lemon in existance. It was a random lemon generating machine, made by yours truly.

    Yours Truly didn’t like it when I stole his machine though. He wished ill wishes and then I fell down a manhole.

    Did you help hime out, cos I heard he was in the Bahamas planning revenge?

  • 7. Chris  |  April 29th, 2009 at 15:37

    I don’t even speak to Hime. He’s a nasty piece of work if you ask me and not worth the time of day.

  • 8. Ian Mac Mac Mac Mac McIver  |  April 30th, 2009 at 08:07

    Hime is bad but not as bad as Tim Birdsley, don’t get me started on him. Timbers Lee and Tim Buzzley were talking about Hime the other day. It ended with a rucus.

  • 9. Kevil  |  April 30th, 2009 at 14:01

    Yeah, I was talking to T. Imbers-Lea about Hime and he said that he was an utter shit, but agreed that he had nothing on Tim Birdsley. But then he punched a policeman so I I’m not sure how reliable a source he is.

    You don’t have a problems page either. All the best glossy magazines have problems pages with agony aunts. You don’t have horoscopes. And I find the lack of fawning admiration and photographs of Jade Goody somewhat disconcerting. You didn’t produce a Jade Goody Tribute edition of da Beans. You need to pull your socks up boys.

    Well in all fairness, to be fair, at the end of the day… it was Marshall’s article

    I didn’t claim to be making a full magazine. I was just contributing a corner of the dream. You want an agony aunt? SORT IT OUT THEN. Jeez. I can’t do everything around here, no matter how brilliant I am, which is obviously very brilliant indeed.

  • 13. Ian "Mac Mac Mac Mac" McIver  |  May 6th, 2009 at 20:32

    Can you do this?

  • 14. Chris  |  May 7th, 2009 at 17:50

    Do that? Yes, I’m doing it right now while typing. Quite a skill! Unfortunately I refuse to have myself photographed while doing it so you’ll just have to believe me.

  • 15. Ian Mac Mac Mac Mac McIver  |  May 8th, 2009 at 13:52

    But can you do this?

  • 16. Chris  |  May 9th, 2009 at 02:08

    No, my arms don’t bend far enough to manage it.

  • 17. Auds  |  May 10th, 2009 at 10:35

    Sample letter to Agony Aunt:

    Dear Agony Aunt (and Dec)

    My flatmate has applied for a council house because he is aghast at the fact I have purchased a Chris de Burgh CD. What should I do? Yours, Nigella.

    Dear Nigella,
    Obviously flatmate has no musical taste whatsoever. Chuck him out.

  • 18. Ian "Mac Mac Mac Mac" McIver  |  May 16th, 2009 at 23:50

    Ha.

    Hahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahhahahaha.

    Pull the other one. That is all fiction of the highest order.

  • 19. Chris  |  May 19th, 2009 at 10:52

    I don’t like Chris de Burgh. I do like Crispy Burgers though.

  • 20. El Juan De Laslo  |  May 25th, 2009 at 22:50

    Crispy burgers go well when you are serenading a lady of the highest order. Pull up a bun, let me tell you a story.

Something random
