Oh god. What a week for spelling, huh? Well, if you haven’t yet heard, Mitt Romney’s campaign for President of these United States put out an iPhone App called “With Mitt.” (The Germans must love the translation of “mitt Mitt.”) Anyway, this app allows you to take photos and emblazon them with awesome American catch-phrases [...]

Timing Is Everthing (Shanahan’s)
Disapproving Dog (Belmont Inn)
Disapproving dog thinks you could have done better at quiz last night! Yup, that’s another shot of my dog, but while I saved the most disapproving for last, I also saved the cutest: Yeah, you don’t get any cuter than that, folks. Really, you don’t. Speaking of cute, we had a cute little quiz at [...]
OBEY MY DOG! (Space Room)
Wow, what a night we had at Space Room last night. A little mechanical failure brought us closer together — or had all of you paying more attention to me than usual. I’m not going to lie: I kind of liked it. No, not telling you all to shut up so much. I liked that [...]
No Time for Love, Dr. Bones! (Shanahan’s)
Why yes, that is my dog. Her name is Indiana Bones, or Indy for short, and she is known far and wide as the best dog there ever was. (Except for last night when she decided to take down a bag of chocolate chip cookies, and this morning when she sprayed my neighborhood down with [...]
Taco Bell: Think Outside the Bathroom (Space Room)
Aye Chihuahua! Well, we didn’t ask about this little guy at Pub Quiz last night, but we did have a Taco Bell question for the trivia-hungry masses. And I do mean masses: We had a great night at Space Room, as always. Round One saw some great questions about The Simpsons, potentially gay presidents, M&Ms [...]
How dare you!? Firefly is RADICAL! (Shanahan’s)
I have one thing to say about Nathan Fillion after looking at this picture: That man is CLEARLY canadian. I mean, look at those FLAGS on his ROLLERBLADES! He definitely plays on the other side of the border. But if you were thinking that he was gay (not that there’s anything wrong with that — [...]
Hitler Kitties to the Rescue! (Space Room)
Have you heard of Iron Sky? This is a sci-fi movie that posits “what if the Nazis had escaped to the dark side of the moon, and came back to re-invade Earth in the present day?” Well, it seems they aren’t the only folks who crack wise with the Third Reich. There’s also the Hitler [...]
JPP SMAAAAAAAASHHH!!! (Shanahan’s)
Well, didn’t we have a lovely quiz at Shanahan’s last night. Mothers was the theme and everyone came in and ordered their food so politely. It was a mild-mannered crowd at the start, with everyone enjoying all manner of food items and beverages. Round One went well — some great, fun questions in there. And [...]
“Like Sam the Butcher Bringing Alice the Meat” (Belmont Inn)
Ah, a sad day for the Beastie Boys, but last night, our question about Alice, aka Ann B. Davis, helped rock the party. We packed the house as usual at Portland’s best pub quiz with the Thursday Throwdown in full effect! The theme was Cinco de Mayo, in honor of the upcoming holiday, and we [...]
Grease 2: The Reckoning (Space Room)
How did I miss such an obvious joke last night!? I mean, we had a question on Grease 2, and I didn’t throw in a “The Reckoning.” Man, I must be really off my game. Speaking of being off their game — you guys were amazing(ly bad) last night! I kid, I kid… you were [...]
