You can find last week's answers and contest winner in an extended entry, but now it's time for today's Lazy Sunday contest! This week's prize is a $30 Amazon.com Gift Card!
Everyone has a chance at winning, so don't be shy! I'm trying to find a good balance between easy and hard questions, too, so if you feel frustrated, just answer the ones you know. Everyone who's between the ages of 16 and 80 should be able to get at least one correct - I promise.
The rules:
It's very simple. Every answer contains a reference to a movie, a television show, or a song. Just guess as many as you can - some will be laughably easy and some will be very difficult. You have two chances to comment with your answers.
Every correct answer is like a raffle ticket - you get one chance to win per correct answer. If you get 1 right, your name goes in the proverbial hat. If you get 10 right, your name goes in ten times. Et cetera.
The contest ends Tuesday at midnight EST. I'll give the correct answers and the winner on the following Sunday.
I've tried to make it slightly more Google-proof, although some of them are easily found if you're lazy. Otherwise, it should be simple, but if you have any questions, just ask in the comments.
Ready? Here we go!
1. Would you kiss the last person you kissed again?
Yes, but this time, Susan would probably be arrested. She'll have to wait until I'm 30 for real.
2. Last voicemail you received?
From my friend Marcus. He's in Egypt.
3. What did you do yesterday?
I traded in my halo to be with this beautiful doctor. Today really sucks, though.
4. What's the first thing you would do with 5 million dollars?
I'd have a Zoroastrian named Wilma shave my testicles ritualistically.
5. What color socks are you wearing?
White. They go well with my white loafers and gray suit.
6. What are you listening to?
Desperado. Every time I hear it, I stare off into space.
7. How many fingers am i holding up?
Six. On one hand.
8. When's the last time you cried?
When Claire died. If she hadn't had to drive me home, she never would have been hit by that drunk driver.
9. Have you ever crawled through a window?
I usually only jump through windows when they're skylights. It makes for a great entrance, especially if there's a bad guy inside.
10. What do you spend most of your money on?
Wigs, women's dresses, makeup, glasses, and everything else I need to be believable as Dorothy Michaels.
11. Who has your heart?
It's been totally eclipsed by Bonnie.
12. Have you ever kissed two people in the same day?
Are we talking about a church kiss?
13. Do you like yourself?
Only when I think about you. Then I really like myself.
14. What objects are around you right now?
Well, there are some moths, a pit, a hose, a bucket on a rope, and some lotion.
15. What's your middle name?
I don't have one. Neither does my brother Ambrose.
And here are the answers and winners from last week's contest :
Here are the questions and answers:
1. What are you excited for?
Well, I'm looking forward to my golf match today. It's a foursome with a judge, a doctor, and a real estate tycoon.
Hi, I'm Ty Webb, and this is Caddyshack.
2. Are you happy?
Only when it rains.
This was an easy one. It's "Only Happy When It Rains", by Garbage.
3. What were you doing at this time yesterday?
Well I made a giant pancake that I had to flip with a snowshovel, I microwaved the laundry, and I punched a drunk clown in the face.
If you didn't know this is Uncle Buck, what's wrong with you?
4. Have you kissed anyone whose name starts with J?
Jenny. I was going to call her, but I can't remember the number.
Another easy musical one. This is 867-5309/Jenny, by Tommy Tutone.
5. What should you be doing right now?
I'm going to put some lipstick on and then start working down my list of "People to Kill".
Some of you guessed Kill Bill, which was a good guess, but this is from Billy Madison, when Adam Sandler's titular character apologizes to Steve Buscemi's uncredited character Danny McGrath for being mean to him in school.
6. Your last missed call?
Ishmael. I told him to call me back.
No, it's not Kingpin. Or Moby Dick. It's another reference to Hot Shots, when Admiral Benson is on the phone and says "Call me back, Ishmael" and hangs up the phone.
7. Thinking about anyone special?
His name's Steve, but he only pretends to be special.
Yes, this is The Ringer, although I'm not sure how you guys guessed this one so easily.
8. The last person to make you cry?
It was someone who called me a cheap, lying, no good, rotten, floor-flushing, low-life, snake-licking, dirt-eating, inbred, overstuffed, ignorant, blood-sucking, dog-kissing, brainless, dickless, hopeless, heartless, fat-ass, bug-eyed, stiff-legged, spotty-lipped, worm-headed, sack of monkey shit.
Chevy Chase's Clark Griswold's best line in National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation.
9. Whats your deepest darkest secret?
I'm not a woman named Dil.
I'm sure most of you got this through Google. It's The Crying Game.
10. Last thing you ate?
Peaches. They come in a can.
Peaches, by The Presidents of the United States of America. Pretty simple
11. Can you play any instruments?
I used to play the piano brilliantly on the radio in Poland, before the war.
This is The Pianist. Which I've only seen part of. I was bored to tears.
12. Have you ever had your heart broken?
I don't have a heart. That's lucky, because hearts will never be practical until they can be made unbreakable.
An old classic. The Wizard says this in The Wizard of Oz.
13. If you could go back in time would you change things?
I'd let the plane engine kill me.
Donnie Darko. It's a dark, bizarre movie that I absolutely love. And I've just ruined the movie for you.
14. What are you wearing?
A red shirt, blue shorts, and blue shoes.
This is Bart Simpson, so the correct answer is "The Simpsons", unless there's a show called "Bart Simpson" of which I'm unaware. I still gave you credit, though.
15. What is bothering you right now?
My mother. She said that they're all going to laugh at me.
Adam Sandler had this as a bit on his comedy album, but that's not music, television, or a movie. He actually got his idea from watching Carrie, where her mother says that in the same ridiculous tone.
Here's how I chose the winner:
First, I entered everyone's answers into a spreadsheet, giving 1 point for each correct answer and 0 points for each wrong answer. The total number of points equaled the person's "raffle tickets" for the drawing.
Then I created a randomized list using Random.org of every "raffle ticket" - basically each person's name was repeated as many times as they had right answers. This gave me a random list of 285 entries.
Finally, using Random.org again, I asked it to generate a random integer between 1 and 285. It chose #217.
#217 is my winner.
Would you like to know who that is?
(drumroll please)
Congratulations - you win a Logitech QuickCam Communicate STX! Email me to confirm your win and give me your address. The rest of you, thank you for playing, and try your luck with today's contest!

Comments by Amanda
1. At first I thought, perhaps, "13 Going On 30." But Jennifer Garner's character's name wasn't Susan. So — "Big."
2. No clue. "The Mummy," perhaps?
3. "City of Angels." Wearing black and sitting on overhead road signs was never more fun.
4. "Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery"
7. The Princess Bride
8. "Law and Order." I'm shocked that I knew this one!
9. Demolition Man? Maybe?
10. Tootsie
11. "Total Eclipse of the Heart" by Bonnie Tyler. And best sung, in my opinion, by that wedding band in the movie "Old School."
12. "The Wedding Singer"
13. Kind of a stretch, but "I Touch Myself" by the Divinyls.
14. "Silence of the Lambs."
I'm sure I'll kick myself for not knowing #15...
Comments by Shiny
my hangover from friday night's insanity is finally gone, but apparently i killed a few too many brain cells. coz all i know right now are these:
7 is the princess bride's count rugan
14 is silence of the lambs
yeah, i suck. but so do you for not fixing your contest to have me win the web cam. no naked posts for you!
oh...small aside...the house where they filmed the silence of the lambs' scenes that creep everyone out just so happens to be located down where i go kayaking. i have a difficult time just going past that fucking place.
Comments by hello haha narf
Oh I was all proud that I knew it was "I Touch Myself" and someone beat me to it! I only know that one, 13 Going on 30 (#1), City of Angels (#3), and I thought #9 was Mrs. Doubtfire, but it looks like it's Tootsie. And is #10 Spiderman?

Comments by Mr. Fabulous
Stephanie, lazy fucker.
Amanda, "all you have is Monk" or all Google has is Monk?
Shiny, thanks for entering!
Hello, I wanted you to win that contest, too! I guess I'll have to have naked webcam conversations with Kapgar instead.
BB, Mrs. Doubtfire's name was Euphegenia Doubtfire, remember?
Bethie, yay - three this time!
Hilly, okay, we'll be here.
Dee, I don't know who Greg the stop sign is or what the initials TISM stand for.
Jester, that scene from Law and Order was sad, wasn't it?
Karl, 6 of them is all you could guess? It must be too early.
Nina, nah, it's not cheating. If you can find it on Google, more power to you.
Britt, you did pretty well this time!
AnnieB, happy zombie Jesus bunny chocolate day!
Robin, they exercise your brain!
Cap, this does show an interesting perspective on your movie preferences, though.
Fab, yeah, I can't believe you didn't get more than that, either.

So, I'll finally play along. Just so you know, I'm abysmal with pop culture. We didn't have cable when I lived at home (can you believe that it wasn't available in the damn sticks?!). I didn't even know the HBO song from the other day. Sad, aren't I?

Kyra, I am not some inanimate thing to be objectified. I'm a man, dammit, with feelings!
Bec, that "turn around" part is the best part of the song.
Mike, it's all about luck!
Kapgar, coincidentally, "Whatshernuts" is Bonnie's maiden name.
Deb, you always come up with an interesting one like #15.
Mari, I have that Greenskeepers album. The video is awesome!
L, I will indeed share.
Stacy, thanks for playing!
Poppy, nope. Link, please.
Mona, good job.
Paticus, you didn't like City of Angels?

BE Earl, I'm surprised how many people recognize City of Angels.
