Recently at college there was a team quiz in English Literature. Now, as someone who remembers details of the various continua, I was very happy about this.
However, each team had to think up a question to ask the other two teams. This is where there were Problems.
First, no-one (apart from me) knew the name of the main antagonist from Watership Down.
Second, me and the person who set the question were the only people who knew Remus Lupin's middle name. (Which is more a sign of my geekery.)
Finally, the actual annoyance. Another team asked: What is the name of the White Wizard from Lord of the Rings? I pointed out there were two answers and was treated as though I was completely insane.
I just thought you guys were the sort of people who would find this either amusing or annoying.
