I found myself thinking about this too much, yeah I see where we're going with it, Muslim nations ain't allowed, and I thought about parts of Africa where I think they only drink spit beer or some shit. Oh yeah and I don't think Antartica is a nation.

UAE
Sudan
Yemen
Saudis
Azerbaijan
Bahrain
Guinea

Nobody likes a stickler for detail. I should know.

+1 point for being a smart ass. -1 point for naming Antarctica.

The question is still open.

Ottinger and Thirsty have gotten pretty close. Smatter also receives an A for effort. Some people make passing out look easy! Username needs to take his anti-troll meds and recrimp the tin foil helmet.



hint-

Correct answers, as one might suspect, include a number of Muslim nations. Poor, dry bastards indeed. But I have known several followers of the Islamic faith who were able to get over it, so there's always hope.

Bring it, trivia bitches.

I know, brother. And I hoist the drink in your honor for it.




Alrighty, let's run down some of the correct answers. The question will be open just a little longer and then we'll move on.

Stan is definately not your drinking buddy, or more specifically *Afghanistan and *Pakistan.
*Saudi Arabia
*Kuwait
and
*Yemen are also correct.

We might have to work out something where y'all can use points to buy in on another go at the answer. Just thinking.

Quackers! Alright, quality time is up. Pencils down.

This question is going in the trash can as the first in our glorious and ignoble trivia experiment. But first, let's review the correct answers. The 10 driest nations on earth according to the WHO are...

*Yemen (they got the khat)
*Afghanistan
*Pakistan (although they did just open their first distillery)
*Somalia (they got the khat too)
*Mauritania
*Libya
*Kuwait
*Bengladesh
*Saudi Fuckrabia
*Niger

The next question will be up shortly, so grab another drink. I'll have a Buffalo Trace straight up, please.
TN@TP will continue...

Okay. The next question is worth +5 points based on degree of difficulty.
Zero score so far. But of course, things can change quickly once we get into the 2 for 1 trivia round.
The category is Popular Sayings. Good luck.

Correct, sir! +5 ponts!

Pints and quarts are, of course, classic standard measurements from the pubs of merry old England. They translate quite well into the language of hard liquor.

Let's recap the scoreboard:

Surreal........................................... 5
All You Other Chumps.......................... 0


Tighten up your fez's and check back frequently. The next posted question will be out of the oven shortly.
