Although we at QOTD are mostly known for our silliness, we have a serious side as well. We want our readers to come away having learned something. So, to that end, here's a verbatim transcript of today's entry on QOTD's Freakonomics desk calendar:
"A recent gang murder in San Diego claimed the life of a man named Dom Perignon Champagne. His mother's name is Perfect Engelberger."
As someone who has had his name mistaken for Cristal champagne on multiple occasions, let this be a QOTD Service Announcement: Don't name your children after champagne. They're likely to end up dead. Or running public service announcements on their widely-ignored blog. Thanks for your time.
Now that we've educated our readers, and even given them a little public service announcement, we can get on to our usual stupidity.
From season one of the US version of The Office, Michael Scott (Steve Carell) talks about his basketball game in one of the better surreal pieces of dialogue ever featured on the show:
"Do I have a nickname on the court? The Answer would be good, but that's taken. I think I would be...The Question. 'The Answer dishes to the Question - Question back to the Answer. Answer to the Question. Answer, three points. Question, six points! Question: who's the best player on the team? Answer: The Question!'"
