Packet 8
1. While playing Grace Adler’s surprise wedding, he made his bandmate put money into
the “Old Lyrics” jar so they could have a pizza party. In the past decade, he released the
solo album Phunk Shui and wrote and sang lead on “No Child Should Ever Cry on
Christmas.” Though his group’s biggest albums featured his “Italian Girls” and
“Looking for a Good Sign,” his role in videos tended to be minimal, as when lipsynching to the female chorus of “Adult Education” and walking behind his nightclubsinging bandmate in “One on One,” though he shared lead vocals on their first big hit,
“She’s Gone.” Tragically, in 1991 he cut his trademark Jheri-curled mullet and
mustache. For 10 points, name this musician who sang “ohs” and “oohs” in “Rich Girl”
and “Maneater” as second banana to Daryl Hall.
Answer: John Oates
2. This man was arrested during Poland’s 1972 bread riots, when he was known as
Zbigniew Krycsiwiki. Loosely based on the less memorable Sol “The Horror” Horowitz,
we first see him in action killing Max Kalba to retrieve plans for a submarine tracking
device. He later survives being electrically propelled from a moving train, wrestling a
shark, and having his parachute disabled mid-fall by his enemy. His only line of dialogue
is the final “Well, here’s to us,” directed to his girlfriend Dolly after the destruction of
Hugo Drax’s space station. For 10 points, name this assistant of Karl Stromberg, a large
henchman played by Richard Kiel who killed characters in Moonraker and The Spy Who
Loved Me with his steel teeth.
ANSWER: Jaws (accept Zbigniew Krycsiwiki early, then tell the answerer that they
should have way better things to do with their lives than reading the novelization of the
film version of The Spy Who Loved Me)
3. Despite wearing his lucky blue cap, he was unable to save his idol and fellowtrumpeter Eugene Foote. He hooked up with and impregnated a co-worker on the job, and
only started dating her after it was revealed to be ectopic and miscarried. Though first in
his class at Johns Hopkins Medical School, he lost some ability after developing a tremor
from being shot in the shoulder and was unable to replace Dr. Webber as chief of surgery.
He departed Seattle Grace Hospital after leaving Cristina Yang at the altar, largely
because the actor who played him tossed a homophobic slur at T. R. Knight. For 10
points, name this cardio-thoracic surgeon once played by Isaiah Washington on Grey’s
Anatomy.
ANSWER: Preston Burke (accept either)
4. The childrens pop group Neposedi claims that both members of this group “graduated”
from the band; one, however, claims she was kicked out for swearing and drinking. They
claim that their 2003 Eurovision campaign, which used the B-side “Ne Ver' Ne Boysia,”
was derailed by issues in Ireland with votes not being received. Their 2005 album and its
title track was criticized for its comments against the mentally disabled; that album, Lyudi
Invalidy, was released around the same time as the flop Dangerous and Moving. The
Anatomy of this band was shown in a 2003 documentary noted for showing its band's
manager smoking marijuana as well as both of its singers smoking cigarettes around the
time one member, Yulia Volkova, was suffering from vocal cysts. They were better
known for their 2003 English debut 200 km/h in the Wrong Lane, an album typified by
Euro dance tracks like “30 Minutes,” and a VMA performance of their hits “All The
Things She Said” and “Not Gonna Get Us” that featured one hundred girls stripping. For
ten points, identify this Russian pop group noted for gaining fame by being fake lesbians.
Answer: t.a.t.u
5. One player with this distinction was a Russian-born teammate of Eiji Sawamura who
was killed while driving drunk , leaving him with just 19 career homers. In addition to
Victor Starfin, another player who achieved it was a spitballer for the White Sox named
Frank Shellenback. Bobby Matthews is not known for his failure to achieve this, because
of baseball's exclusion of National Association records, while one member lost the ability
to comb his hair after throwing 678 innings for the 1884 Providence Grays. It took five
starts with the lackluster 1964 Indians for Early Wynn to achieve this, while another of its
members was traded over waivers this year to the Dodgers. Tom Glavine, Roger
Clemens and Greg Maddux are among those who have reached, for ten points, this Hall
of Fame guarenteer, which suggests you pitched a lot while your team didn't lose.
Answer: 300 win club
6. Outside of a small amount of scoring by Marius Ruhland, the film is mainly scored by
recordings of Richard Wagner and tangoes by Argentine Hugo Diaz. It opens and closes
in Monte Carlo, namely with its protagonist blowing all of his money on an all-in bet. Its
protagonist survived an early imprisonment by making portraits of military families
before his number was noticed by Herzog. Its most prominent subplot is the attempt to
mask Zilinski's tuberculosis by its protagonist and the sympathetic Doctor Klinger. A
treatise on pride, its major conflict deals with prolonging sabotage and protecting the
idealistic socialist Burger. Detailing the work of Operation Bernhard, it mainly focuses
on "Sally" Sorowitsch and the attempt to crush the American economy by flooding the
market with dollars made at Sachsenhausen. For ten points, identify this Austrian film,
the 2008 Oscar winner for Best Foreign film.
Answer: The Counterfeiters or Die Fälscher
7. A storyarc in Mitch Clem's Nothing Nice 2 Say deals with Fletcher liking this album
and being tormented by its cover model. Known for extremely short songs, a song that
tells of the “world falling apart at the rifts” is the longest at two minutes, forty-four
seconds. An early track asks when the listener will “try to change the logarithmic face of
kissing things goodbye?” One track on it discusses excess, drug use and “answering to
Jones,” telling of the “deadly and alluring... sound of pounding heat” that enslaves those
who listen to the “Forbidden Beat,” while another declares that the listener will “believe
in God when one and one are five,” imploring the listener to “go to Hell with Superman /
and die like a champion” in the libertarian anthem “Do What You Want.” Another tells
of “the masses of humanity, clinging to their dignity” always having and continuing to
have to perform the album's titular action. For ten points, identify this seminal 1988
album by California punks Bad Religion.
Answer: Suffer
8. His early works included publishing a newspaper with text too small to be read with
the naked eye, and satirical Prozac commercials. He appeared in a video for a song by DJ
Variety Beats and Chad Russell which set to music a Russian nursery rhyme about a
rabbit along with his band The Nowadays. His most famous appearance was emulated in
2007 to a video set to the song “Crazy Loop”, also by Dan Balan. That video featured
puns like a picture of feta cheese at the word “happiness”, and he was depicted with
headphones, moving his arms to the chorus’s words of “You want to leave but don’t want
to take me”, and with his mouth humorously open singing “Mai-ya hee”. For 10 points,
name this fat bespectacled dude who gained immense unwanted fame for dancing around
on his webcam to Moldovan pop band O-Zone’s “Dragostea Din Tei” [DRAH-go-stah
din TEY].
Answer: Gary Brolsma (or the Numa Numa Guy)
9. It was dubbed "the heaviest song I had ever heard" by Paul McCartney, who used it as
inspiration for "Helter Skelter." The trust of its singer was taken advantage of "while [he]
was away," and he credits the subject for having nerve to still "want him." He then notes
her guess that he "would need a crystal ball to see through the haze" and that she will
"choke on it too," which he also guesses will happen due to her thinking "that I don't
know about the little tricks you've played." He claims he knows this "'cause there's
magic in my eyes." Honda and Sylvania used it for commercials, befitting the only single
from an album that saw its band Sell Out. For ten points, identify this song, the highest
U.S.-charting hit penned by Pete Townsend for English rockers The Who.
Answer: “I Can See For Miles”
10. President Obama makes this song the national anthem in Second City Toronto’s
Barack to the Future. Its near-inaudible fade-out line is “It’s not good to masturbate,”
completing a couplet that starts “Please don’t procrastinate,” while other lyrics refer to
“blue teardrops falling.” Its video features the singer in a white limo watching himself in
the film Midnight Love, whose naughty-nurse theme refers to its lyrics “You’re my
medicine/Open up and let me in” and the repeated “I can’t wait for you to operate.” That
singer claims he’s “hot just like an oven” and “needs some loving” before describing the
title activity as “something that’s good for me.” For 10 points, name this 1982 comeback
hit which describes what Marvin Gaye needs “when I get that feeling.”
Answer: “Sexual Healing”
11. A Beastie Boys song is sampled twice on this album, including in its closing track
that calls for people to know that they are black, “Party for Your Right to Fight.” Hype
verses on it include a person telling of the band making “crazy loowies for the shopping
spree” in “”Cold Lampin' with Flavor” as well as its intro track, the instrumental
“Countdown to Armageddon.” Sepultura and Tricky recorded separate covers of a song
on this album that talks about receiving a draft notice; its narrator finds the government
“suckers” and claims that America is “a land that never gave a damn / about a brother
like myself” on “Black Steel in the Hour of Chaos.” Anthrax covered this album's first
song with its lead rapper Chuck D, though it’s also known for random lines by Flavor
Flav. For ten points, identify this seminal rap album, the 1988 effort of New York's
Public Enemy.
Answer: It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back
12. One picture featuring him and some woman is dated to August 17, 2013. He released
a pop song titled after one of his catchphrases and containing some others, as well as the
randomly-placed line “My heart fills with joy when you are near” in the chorus. He goes
to 3 or 4 countries every year, including “Germany”, “Nederland”, and “Moldovia”, and
pictures on his website include him playing ping-pong, him lying down in red swimming
trunks, and one of him smiling in a brown jacket and black pants, and he “invitates” any
woman travelling to stay at his home. He claims that his website was hacked to include
phrases like “I like sex”, and also sued Sacha Baron-Cohen, saying that he was the
inspiration for Borat. For 10 points, name this Turkish man who gained fame due to his
poorly-written website who welcomes viewers to his home page by saying “I KISS YOU
!!!!!”.
Answer: Mahir Cagri [CHA-ruh] (accept either)
13. After a career at Petersburg High in Virginia that saw his team win over 50
consecutive games he skipped out of an agreement to attend Maryland to play for the
Utah Stars in the ABA, though he's better known for his days in that league with the
Spirits of St. Louis. He was traded twice before playing his third NBA game but settled
to destroy the record for offensive rebounds in his rookie season. He went on to further
shatter that record both in 1979 and 1982; the latter also saw him win the MVP award for
the Houston Rockets, then get traded for Caldwell Jones and finally win an NBA title
with Julius Erving in a year where he predicted the playoffs to go “fo, fo, fo” as the MVP
of the 1983 Philadelphia 76ers. The only player to win two straight MVP awards in the
NBA, for ten points, identify this center who ended up playing a record 21 years in the
league.
Answer: Moses Malone
14. The So Solid Crew and Westlife fight over the Brit Awards is an example of a round
named for this album in the British trash show Never Mind the Buzzcocks. Multiple
samples are repeated on this album, namely funk poppers ESG's "UFO" on "Mr. Good
Bar" and "Murdergram," along with two cuts of James Brown's "Funky President,"
namely on the title track. Its singer "knows why you here / I ain't sayin' nothin'" in the
desperation sex jam "Six Minutes of Pleasure," while he calls himself "the future of the
Funk" on "Jingling Baby," two minor singles compared to a song also featured in House
Party that hates on MC Hammer and Ice-T, "To da Break of Dawn." It's better known
for its title track, which features prominently in an episode of MTV UnPlugged, which
implores the listener to not call this "a regular jam" nor "a comeback, I've been here for
years." Noted for restoring his hardcore cred, for ten points, identify this 1990 album by
LL Cool J.
Answer: Mama Said Knock You Out
15. This site was started in 1996 by Garrett Gruener and David Warthen, who had
founded a children’s video game company called EyeGames. Its popular searches are
referred to as its namesake IQ. Its current features include “Binoculars Site Preview” and
Smart Answers, as well as an Eraser which allows for additional privacy. In 2007 this site
introduced its “3D” version, including customizable skins and results. This site also
phased out its former mascot and launched an ad campaign featuring “Kato Kaelin” and
“chicks with swords”, in which the protagonist sings, “I got what I was looking for.” For
10 points, name this search engine which still takes searches in question form, but is no
longer named after a P.G. Wodehouse valet.
Answer: Ask.com (or Ask Jeeves)
16. Two characters clean up a highway with their grandmother after they try to
electrocute her, one of whom compares his fighting skills to a spider monkey. Sasha
Baron Cohen recalls that his character's home nation invented the blowjob. This movie's
subtitular character “tastes of America,” his children are notably not named Dr. Quinn
and Medicine Woman, and his wife is mostly just the first woman who flashed him. For
10 points, identify this character whose “shake-n-bake” partnership with John C. Reilly's
character is broken by his father's directive that “if you ain't first, you're last,” following
the racing career of Ricky Bobby.
ANSWER: Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby
17. This film’s protagonist sings a nonsense version of “Je cherche après Titine” after he
loses the cuffs on which his girlfriend had written the lyrics. That protagonist had been
imprisoned after getting caught up in a communist rally, but is released when his
accidental ingestion of the cocaine smuggled into a salt shaker causes him to manically
foil an escape attempt. Unemployed, he's inspired by his beloved gamin to go back to his
factory job, but accidentally traps his supervisor in this film’s iconic machinery, as had
happened to him just after trying an automatic feeding machine. For 10 points, name this
1936 film about the industrial, Depression-era travails of Charlie Chaplin’s Little Tramp.
ANSWER: Modern Times
18. He once staged the death of his star running back on Halloween as well as setting up
the prank arrest of defensive end Everson Griffen for "physically abusing" young
linemen; rapport with his players is also displayed in his being the first coach at his level
to have a Facebook page. Shoulder problems derailed his attempt to play free safety for
the WFL's Honolulu Hawaiians, drawing him to work as a grad assistant at alma mater
Pacific and Arkansas, where he first met mentor Monte Kiffin. He gained NFL
prominence coaching the Vikings' secondary in the late 1980s, parlaying that into a failed
1994 stint coaching the Jets that led to a similarly underwhelming spell in New England
that ended in 1999. Alumni of his school like Ronnie Lott outspokenly supported his
hiring in 2000, namely after starting that season 2-5, though that hire was credited by
ESPN as the top moment by the Pac-10 in the BCS era after he went on to only drop
seven games in seven years with players like Carson Palmer and Reggie Bush. For ten
points, identify this coach of the USC Trojan Football team.
Answer: Pete Carroll
19. King Records and Enix released a game for the PC-88 in Japan following travelers on
a ship of this name attempting to study Halley's Comet before encountering the subtitular
Dreadful Bio Monster. The Cock and Bull is the chosen public house of this man and his
partner in a British webcomic noted for atheistic religious satire and using causitry to
portray the prophet Mohammed. Jesse Lacey asks him what he did for three days,
claiming "this problem's gonna last / more than the weekend" in a song titled this on The
Devil and God are Raging Inside Me, while a spaced-out solo at the end of this song
directly precedes "The Seven Seas of Rhye" on Queen's self-titled debut. He and his Pals
had a show on South Park Public Access until his death trying to save Santa, though he is
best known for fighting Damien's father and getting mad during the original short about
people not celebrating his birthday for religious reasons. For ten points, identify this
Nazarene son of a carpenter.
Answer: Jesus Christ
20. Flogging Molly's intro music was often the version of the English folk song "Sam
Hall" on this album that includes a version of a Mercury Falling track about a man who
drew a bead on a cowboy "to practice my aim," who ends up accidentally killing him;
that song, "I Hung My Head," precedes a plaintive version of "Danny Boy." It features a
John Frusciante-graced version of "Personal Jesus," while the only original song on it
features a spoken word reading of the tale of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse
before telling of "a man going 'round taking names." Its singer rerecorded two of his
classics, "Tear Stained Letter" and the dying jailbird's anthem "Give My Love To Rose."
It's best known for a cover of a song that wishes, "If I could start again / a million miles
away / I would keep myself" from heroin abuse, Nine Inch Nails's "Hurt." For ten points,
