TRIVIANUS Part 2
Disclaimer: This isn't a video
As seen on ANUS Teaser 5, Nick and I unsuccessfully attempted to do a virtual trivia game show that was quickly derailed due to the poor internet connection and laggy responses on my end. Apparently my delayed answers also awkwardly (and problematically) applied to each of the previous questions (not sure how that’s possible), so we received a lot of backlash on the internet from prominent members of “cancel culture” and the like.
Unfortunately, that episode didn’t go as planned, but I’m going to try to redeem myself by providing everyone with the rest of the trivia questions that didn't end up making the cut...just in case anyone at home was curious and/or wanted to play along and have some fun. But first, here are the questions/answers that did up getting aired:
