University Challenge and that plain swotty girl

using the same logic I managed to impress the wife by answering a very long question regarding tangets, sines etc correctly with "90 degrees". The plain girl didn't get the answer though.

Your wife is impressed with 90degrees?

But she didn't understand!

Indeed. I just shout 'One' or sometimes 'Zero' at the telly after every maths question, and get it right quite often. When it's wrong, I just say something random like 'I thought he meant the inverse ratio'. It impresses the wife no end

Your wives are very easily impressed it seems.

I don't think she's plain. She's quite pretty but does her best to hide it.

In my (not inconsiderable) experience, these blue-stocking types are real goers once you get them warmed up.

I prefer this type to a blue-stocking one

Have you noticed that the answers to all the long-winded maths questions are always zero, one, or very exceptionally, minus one?

Like the numerical questions are always 3 in Trivial pursuit

How many seconds would it take you to suck a football through a hose pipe?
