Laugh It Out

Published on March 12, 2008

Do you find that trivia nights suck the life out of you by exposing, incrementally, one question at a time, that you have the memory of a bucket? Fortunately, What's Your Answer?? Comedy and Trivia Night could care less if you can correctly identify, say, what doctors found when they checked out Dick Cheney's heart. They just want you to say something like, "Colon cancer." Yes, the funniest answer, not the right one, wins the game, which is the way the world usually works. What's Your Answer?? is put on by the same people behind Urban Golf and the spelling competition Buzzed Bee, as well as the Web site Crack Houses for Humanity, which has the added humor of not really being funny at all.
