When Herbasecus, God Of Shrubbery, saw that he had one hour to trim Lord Plátanos’s hedges in time for the Great Lawn Show, he knew he’d need help. So he summoned Dirtascous, God Of Leaves, to join him in a pinch. “Dirt [to his friends], I need you at Lord P.’s place ASAP. I got a bush labyrinth to trim and a large oak that needs a perm! All by one o’clock! Can you help me out?” Using his heavenly soil sleigh, a rickety brown conveyance by which he ran all his errands, Dirt landed at Herb’s (to his friends) side to lend a hand. While Herb tended to the oak’s curls, Dirt set off to sculpt a more kid-friendly labyrinth since attending the Show that afternoon would be the seventy-five children of none other than Grassias, God Of Sod. Seeing that he was never gonna finish in time before their arrival, Dirt thought fast. “Instead of trimming the walls of this maze, why don’t I just make it easier for the kids and build little grass ladders for Grass’s (to his friends) kids to climb over? I mean, isn’t that what’s missing from most mazes anyway? Ladders?” By the time Herb was done with the oak’s coif, he turned to see Dirt finishing up grass ladder number nine. “Wouldn’t that cheating?” asked Herb. “Yes!” answered Dirt. “Kids love to cheat!” Here’s the point: There is no cheating at the Glendale Tap on King Trivia Night. Let’s talk.

 

Tonight’s Drinking Round was a Spice Off. One person from each team went to the mic and did their best rendition of any two of the Spice Girls’ songs. Team Nicki won by being able to rap and remember words. In public. Drink up!

 

There was a tie-breaker tonight! For third, which is the funniest of all tie breakers! Rob’s Angels edged out Jazzcats by only two hundred thousand dollars. They took third with 54 points. In second place was When In Ramen with 57 points. And taking first with 61 points was the regally named Farty Pants. Come back next week for more King Trivia fun at the Glendale Tap!

Skipernacas, God Of Frivolity, was frolicking in the Third Garden Of Purity when he suddenly came upon a casserole of ziti. Like, right there near a mossy overhang and a collection of shrubbery: someone’s ziti in a casserole, not even partially eaten.  “Who’s pasta is this?” Skip (to his friends) asked the Garden. “Yeah, that’s mine,” came a voice from high in the tress. When Skip looked up, he saw Noodlemerus, God Of Pasta, perched on the highest branch of a tree. “What, is this a trap?” asked Skip. “Yeah,” answered Nood (to his friends), “I’m trying to catch the elusive—“ and at that moment a large 1958 business man came flying down the trail, scooping low to the ground with an open hand and a drooling, hungry mouth. “Thanks!” he yelled as the ziti immediately teleported from the ground to the businessman’s hand. And off he went. “Is that who you were trying to catch?” Skip asked Nood. “Uh, yeah it was,” whined Nood, knowing that Skip had ruined his hunt. “Back to the drawing board,” said Nood. “Next time, try for a parking lot attendant. Here’s the point: Nothing like this happened at the Glendale Tap last night for King Trivia Night. Let’s talk:

 

The Drinking Round was a competition to see who could do the best Soup Nazi. And when I say “do,” I mean “do an impression of.” This award went to Ibrahim’s Nightmare. Well done!

 

Something happened last night that is the entire reason I host trivia: there was a three-way tie breaker! For third! How many McDonalds are there world wide? When In Ramen knows how many there aren’t! They took third place with 38 points. In second, with a score of 48 points was Arron’s Baboons. And taking first was Jazzcats with a dominating 59 points!

When Phlebibious, God Of Veins, was sailing down the Median Cubital on his lunch break, he noticed a clot attached to the tunica external. He slowed his roll and yelled to the clot: “Hey! You need some help?” The clot, amazed that anyone would come to his aid, responded: “God, yes.” With proper prodding and a fair amount of pulling, Phleb (to his friends) dislodged the clot from his position and sent him on his way, further down the length of the forearm. “Why would you help a dumb clot like me?” asked the clot as he coursed further down the unhealthy limb. “I’m about to retire!” answered Phleb, “I wanna leave a mark!” Suddenly, coming the other way, up the same vein, was an entire slew of clots, going upstream, like a red water river rafting expedition, right up Phleb’s face. The clot yelled to all the other clots: “Where’re y’all going?” “There’s a shark that way!” they all yelled. “Vein shark," grumbled Phleb. “Here’s another thing I gotta do.” Here’s the point: You know where there wasn’t a shark? At the Glendale Tap last night for King Trivia! Let’s talk!
