that has nothing to do with this thread at all.. but seriously, i'm really glad you told me that. no sarcasm intended, i mean it sincerely. i know you didnt mean to, but you made me laugh aloud.
and now that im reading your post in context : yes, it must be weird.

me too, i never met someone at my university that applied for that show.
perhaps this has to do with the fact that im clueless about what 'show' youre refering to.

it is, indeed, a 'pile o shite'
its a quiz show on bbc2 (uk) in which teams (socially inept, highrow-trivia-obsessed, introverted) university students compete.
many of the questions are very obscure. +the impression that you get of the contestants isn't particularly favourable, on the whole.. they usually come off seeming a bit sad, uneccesarily academic + unable to function in the 'real world'..
hence my initial comment that (although my university was represented on the show every year that i was studying) i never even met anyone who knew (of) the contestants.. let alone the contestants themselves.
it was just a throwaway comment..
lets bury this thread now.

Does it make you feel stupid because you don't know the answers. or proud that you don't know the answers...... AND......when/if you get an answer correct, do you feel proud or stupid?
