Question 19

🏢 Obscure Landmarks 🗿

Where is the landmark in this image.

Please be specific.

If the answer is "The Great Pyramid of Giza", "The pyramids" will not be accepted.

quizw4q19.png

Monument for a Dead Parrot, by artist Jon Reardon.
Devonport House Hotel in Greenwich, London.

 last month 

✅ That's correct. Quite bizarre.

Is it related to the Monty Python sketch?

 last month 

Presumably, Reardon’s inspiration for the work was the famous Monty Python “Dead Parrot” sketch, though that featured a definitely deceased "Norwegian Blue" (but you cannot deny this cockatoo also has lovely plumage). A version of the sketch was filmed in a pet shop on London’s Caledonian Road, so some might wonder why the parrot is not found in that more northerly location. Perhaps it was pining for the Docklands?

So that's a possibility.

$12 for adults and free entry for children. Equivalent to 400 baht.

✅ That's correct. Adults are $6 each and children are free.

Question 7

Please be specific.

If the answer is "The Great Pyramid of Giza", "The pyramids" will not be accepted.

Dog Bark Park, Cottonwood Idaho

 last month 

✅ You have one word missing but close enough 🙂

Yeah by the time I realized it was late.

Dog Bark Park Inn B&B in Idaho

 last month 

event-horizon got there first... admittedly without the "Inn" part!

Question 1

✈ Steemit Travel ⛴

A Steemit user recently had a weekend getaway with their family - visiting a local waterfall.

The entrance fee for foreigners was 10x that for nationals.

How much would it cost a foreign family (2x Adults + 2x Children) to visit the waterfall.

$12 for 2 adults and free entry for children. Equivalent to 200 baht.

 last month 

✅ Just noticed that I missed you tick and vote. So here you are 🙂

No, you didn't miss it. This was in the wrong comment box, my bad. Thanks for the free up vote anyway. 😊

Oh. I didn't miss it. Oh well. Have another vote anyway 😆

400 baht ($12) for 2x adults and free for children.

 2 months ago 

Correct - unfortunately bluelavender was quicker to the answer.

 2 months ago 

👎 It's not $60 - much cheaper.

I just dreamt of 80 dollars today, and I thought it was a sign🤭

 2 months ago 

👎 It's not $80. It's actually much cheaper 🙂

Question 4

🎥 Movie Magic 🎬

What movie is the image below depicting?



No Country for Old Men (2007)

 2 months ago 

✅ That's correct!

 2 months ago 

That's correct - Unfortunately, disconnect was slightly quicker than you!

 2 months ago 

The Best of Enemies

 2 months ago 

👎 I'm making a few of them today 🤣

 2 months ago 

I'm too tired to help you in the moment.
Gonna have a look tomorrow.

 2 months ago 

👎 That is one of the words - disconnect got the rest of them!

Flags of Our Fathers

 2 months ago 

👎 It's not Flags of Our Fathers. I like your thinking though!

I liked it too. 😛

Question 3

⚽ Sports 🏏

One Bangladeshi user isn't a fan of his country's cricket franchise (BPL) - what's his main reason for this?

He isn't happy with their venue selection.

 2 months ago 

✅ That's correct.

 2 months ago 

BPL's nasty schedule
The BPL tournament was played only in two stadiums. The days off do not fit for each team.

 2 months ago 

Whilst the schedule is bad, the correct answer was "venue selection" - bluelavender got this one.

 2 months ago 

Yes, I suspected that. Bluelavender posted the solution 30 seconds before me. When I saw that, all I could do was specify.
By the way, I found the post so quickly using Möcki's brilliant search function... 😊

 2 months ago 

Ah, moecki's got a good search function... I'll need to think about that for future questions 🤔

 last month 

No, you don't need to do that. Everyone has the right to get the support they need. We'd much rather prefer handcrafted tools than blind AI chatter, wouldn't we?

 last month 

But my "Who am I?" questions are blind AI chatter 🤣

 last month 

Hm, they will at a certain point. At first I always try to do it "freehand"... Stupid me? OK, you're right. But I enjoy thinking things up myself more. The macaroni casserole thing, for example, took me hours. We make it without flour!!!

Question 8

🍲 Food and Drink 🍹

I'll often cook one of my young-gorillas favourite dishes.

What are the key 5 ingredients for making the below dish?

quizw4q8.png

Butter, milk, macaroni, cheese and flour

 last month 

✅ My little gorillas love Macaroni Cheese.

 last month 

What type of cheese would you use?

Butter
Flour
Milk
Cheddar Cheese
Macaroni

 last month 

Correct - however I'll have to let bluelavender have this one!

That's only fair.

 last month 

I thought so 🙂 It's the 'one-word' generosity day today.

Mozzarella cheese
Parmesan cheese
Milk cream
Macarrones
Butter

 last month 

Mozarella cheese does go well on top, as does Parmesan. bluelavender got the correct answer - the dish is Macaroni Cheese. Yum yum.

Macaroni pasta
Butter
Flour
Milk
Cheese

The cheese is traditionally Cheddar.


Parmesan cheese can be grated on top as well if you fancy.

I also like to add a little mustard for a bit of extra depth to the flavour.

 last month 

I think Jamie Oliver likes to add a bit of mustard.

I always add peas to ours to make sure the boys get some veg inside them. Mixing some fried pancetta to the cheese on top is somewhat of a luxury too. Always served with cheesy garlic bread.

Delicious.

Oh, you're correct by the way. bluelavender got there first though.

Good idea on the peas !

 last month 

Jamie Oliver has a recipe that sneaks a whole cauliflower in which works well too.

My boys moan about the cauliflower, hence the peas. If they weren’t integrated, we’d have them on the side but mixing in some frozen peas before it goes in the oven saves cleaning a pan!

 last month (edited)

Macaroni
Cheese
Cream (or Milk)
Eggs
Salt

 last month 

👎 You can't just throw any old cheese into a dish like this. Imagine putting Wensleydale with Apricots in? Yukky. Also, some of the other ingredients aren't correct.

She really was the first, it's foolish to argue about it, but now a precedent has been set, please don't forget about it, Mr. Quizmaster
