I hate quizzes when they get the answer wrong
Especially when you challenge them and they get all officious with their "it's not the answer on my sheet so I can't accept it".

Yeah
How the fuzzywuzzy are you meant to win if they can just make up the answers? Not so much a quiz, as "guess what's written on my paper". I don't deal with this well, and as a result don't like to play the game.

The worst example of this I experienced
was with my mother, whose knowledge of all things medical is vast. "Ok," boomed the dumb as punched fuck quizmaster reading out the answers. "The first heart transplant occurred in the year .."
We knew it was 1967.
"1867"

No amount of reasoning could persuade him how fucking ridiculous that was. 1867. For fucks sake. Pencillin hadn't even been discovered.

He didn't say
successful heart transplant though, did he?
