During the quarantine of 2020 in light of COVID-19 pandemic, our group of friends decided to host weekly trivia nights
The winner of each week (or the next highest scorer) will host the next week’s trivia
It lasted a month or two with every couple/person hosting it once
It was very fun to see who’s knowledge overlapped with who’s, and revisiting some shared memories in the form of trivia
When it got to me, there has been a lot of dos and don’ts by then
I wanted to have a category for “before and afters”
I wanted to have a category with the bonus being the common theme
I wanted to have a pictures category
I wanted to ask questions that almost everyone can have a chance to answer, meaning if its something obscure give the right answer in the form of options
I wanted to incorporate personal hobbies to see who knows me best
In the end here are the list of questions I came up with
