I'm pissed and I'm a bit pissed off(for those of you who write/talk American English, in British English pissed means drunk while pissed off means angry, mad etc.).
Ok, maybe not pissed or pissed off, but at least far from sober after a certain number of beers and cognacs and a bit humiliated and annoyed after a quiz I attended this evening. Why, you may wonder. Because my team and I ended up on a miserable 13th place. And if that wasn't bad enough, my mom's team won. That's right everyone; my mom beat me. It's fucking shait. If it had been like one point or two that separated us from eachother, it would have been ok, but since we ended up on 25 points and my mom's team won with 35, I don't have much of an excuse. We got trashed, simple as that. It was like watching Arsenal from the early 2000 seasons play against a bunch of homeless hobo's who had been offered two bottles of vodka each as long as they managed to drag their arses out on the pitch. It was bad. No, it was worse than bad, it was horrendous. After ending up on a shared second place last year this was more than a punch in the face. This was like almost winning the title last year and then ending up relegated the season after. I tell you, it's not a good feeling.
It's not that it means so much for me, it's just that when you're in a competition against your mum and you get such a beating like that it's a bit painful. I'll get over it tomorrow. Then the hangover will set in. Or, I will get over it until my mom starts reminding me about it again. Then I'll just show her the fine British salute of two fingers that I have learned her the meaning of.
And to top it all off there are three questions in the quiz that rather annoys me.
1. Who founded London?
The correct answer here was obviously the Romans, BUT the Romans founded Londinium, so the question is; is Londinium and London two different cities/places/towns?
2. What is the name of the moon closest to Pluto?
Here I need to consult an Astronomist. Since Pluto is no longer classified as a planet, can it then have moons?
I will need to consult both these questions with experts to see if I'm partly right about it. If so, the quiz master will have to recieve criticism and will be notified to check his sources better next time.
You might wonder why I actually do this. A sad answer would be "Because I have nothing better to do." A more angry answer would be more like "Because I'm gonna show the fucking cunt where he can stick those cunt questions of his." Neither of these are true. It is simply the most common answer ever: "Because I fucking can." It will make no effect at all. I won't gain 10 points on getting these two questions right. Actually, my team and my mums team answered the same on the second question in question(hehe), so I would gain 2 points as my mom's team would have one point deducted and we would gain a point. Maybe it is for personal pride and glory, I don't know and I don't fucking care. Call me a fighter for justice or mean bastard, I honestly don't care. I do this because I don't want to be wronged in a competition. I know that we got thrased this time, and technically I have no problems about it as long as people keeps their mouth shut. The answer the moment people responds is the somewhat childish, but still rather effective index and long finger pointed upwards in "V". Maybe childish and immature, but tell that to someone who gives a fuck. I fucking don't.

I can completely understand your annoyance with the two questions! Gah!
