Play trivia online: Google-Proof style

No question that one of the greatest benefits the Internet has given to humanity is making it easier to play trivia online. (I mean, what else could it be?) And we here at the Big Quiz Thing ply a novel form of the pastime: In addition to custom corporate game shows, public quiz spectaculars, and our own TV quiz show, the BQT maintains a hoppin’ Twitter feed (@BigQuizThing). Follow us for factoids, nifty links, and the centerpiece: our every-weekday Google-Proof Question.

That'll show 'em!

Each weekday, at 1pm, we post an expert trivia question. But unlike most Twitter trivia, we cunningly craft the question so that it simply cannot be answered by feeding it into the ol’ Google machine (well, at least not without considerable effort). Some past examples…

What ‘90s horror movie title is statement in which the first person declares their knowledge of the second person’s actions? 

Name the artist: Associated with the Southwest, though first name is associated with the Southeast.

What’s the common description: A cold-weather sport, and a method of hairstyling?

Which recent Presidential candidate’s full first name is also a brand of cookie?

The name of what major pro sports team—not the Cardinals—is something found on the body of a cardinal?

Oh yes, we like to have fun, we do. There's a new Google-Proof Question every weekday at 1pm EST precisely: Stretch your lateral-thinking muscles, and if you’re the first person to tweet at us with the correct Google-Proof answer, you win. Best of all, ten victories earns you free admission to one our public live trivia spectaculars (the best trivia events NYC, Boston, and Philadelphia have to offer, and that's sans sarcasm), or, if you prefer, a Big Quiz Thing T-shirt. See you tomorrow (or Monday, depending when you read this), 1pm.
