One of them odd stream of consciousness thingies

So I was downing beer and clicking on youtube. And the first "recommendation" that came up for "me" under "Recommended for You" was one on stupid game show answers. And boy, didn't that start the ball rolling. There are lots.

My two most (personally) memorable, as in I actually watched them in more-or-less real time, I can't actually find on youtube, but I will try to describe.

First: I don't remember the question, or even the show, it's been many years, but I do remember that it wasn't even a musical question. The answer given was "accordion". This has become an in-joke between the Sainted Bride and me.

Second: This was from "Wheel of Fortune" many years ago, before it became even dumber than it was back then (seriously, how damn many letters of the alphabet are they going to spot the contestant in the last round?) Now, after these many years, I don't specifically recall how many letters were yet uncovered on the puzzle but I don't believe it was more than two different letters (a couple of each). The puzzle looked kind of like this:

"T_E EAR__ BIRD CATC_ES T_E WORM"

Actually, it seemed even easier than that, and I don't recall specifically which letters had been left unrevealed but I, to this day, can't believe that this particular contestant actually guessed "THE EARTH BIRD CATCHES THE WORM". Tres amazing.

But enough of that. More amusing stuff, first answers here (but watch all of them), trying to get past the concept that two married adults don't know what a "decade" is:



There is a family story (actually TWO family stories, if you count family friends) along the lines of the answer given here, between 1:40 and 1:50:



But the most (in)famous answer of all time (which I had heard about for years but always suspected was an urban myth until I actually saw it on the blooper show excerpted here) was this one::



Very amusing.
