Me to! I need to learn to communicate under pressure first . And learn a buncha stuff.


:sigh: I know, better break out the Encyclopaedia.

Also, I occasionally pause the television when I have an answer on the tip of my tongue.

Nothing beats the smug feeling you get when you can answer a question no-one else can :u:.

Oh god I love it sososo much!!

My boyfriend and I watch it religiously every Monday, 'cause we're just that cool.

I love McComish from Magdalen, Oxford. Anybody else notice the milisecond before he says his answer where he appears to have some kind of beautiful epiphany and looks up to the heavens?

Fab.


Also, there is no better feeling than the uber-smugness when you know an answer none of the contestants did.


wait, i forget, is that the aussie guy? the one who phrases all his answers as questions?

I'm aiming to end up in research also.

Edinburgh if all goes to plan!

Tell you what, Clemo annoys the hell out of me. He might be a really nice person but, he has the smuggest face I've ever come across.

Bourne Grammar? SNAP!

I'm going with Magdalen, as inside knowledge tells me to :tongue:

I know both of them. One much better than the other...


Hmm... History at Nottingham in Y13 at BGS? No idea who you are!! :frown:

I don't know either of them especially well, but I'm thinking Magdalen as well!!
