1,3,6&8 were what I knew. Lora if you missed Q3 you haven't paid attention in the class. That question was asked in 2 previous quizzes ! And that's how I knew it too 😀

I knew 5,6,&7. Q6, because I live there, :D and Q7 because when I was a kid "man in the iron mask" was one of the only 2 or 3 foreign movies shown on TV.

I made it today. Added curry leaves, ginger, cumin, and onions too. Turned out good. My niece and nephew loved it. Had no proper ratio guide anyway, but I adjusted it to taste. Collected the fat and sauce mix that dripped to the bowl. I might use it in something if it smells and tastes good, or...

According to various sources on Google the hardest wood is not ebony. Olea capensis or black ironwood, Australian Buloke, and several other species come up on the top of the list. Diospyros ebenum is known as Ceylon ebony :)

Yes.

Thanks. My main reason to mention what I have is that I can't find many of those ingredients found in recipe websites. E.g. I can't find thyme or oregano. But this list gives me an idea of the ratio, and I'll use the one that's closest to above options. I'm thinking of adding curry leaves and...

Thought of making some bbq type chicken tomorrow. I'll use a halogen oven/an air fryer. It has a lid with a halogen lamp and a fan, if you know. What's a good spicy sauce you know please? I currently have mustard seeds, chilli powder, tomato sauce, cloves, garlic, vinegar, soy sauce, sugar...

I had never heard about this. A good story to use in political discussions (in which I seldom take part though).

I've been looking for the quiz for 3 years here, and before that I can't remember how many years in "that other forum".

I thought the first reaction to my answer would be to include it in the "expressions I hate" thread 🤣🤣🤣. I know right? 🤣🤣

I think answer 1 is that of Q3, right?

I knew 2 and 3. And 2 not by watching a single episode! In the movie "The Machine" the Russian mafia girl tells the American guy that she loved Family Matters and he should watch it too. Her favourite phrase was "did I do that". And after a certain "act" (I don't want to spoil it in case you...

That's me! I hate romcom but alright with sitcom.

Same here. I actually never reply to u and r u and several other such "words." But texting I don't mind when the other person has no time for a call. E.g. in the office etc. .

Hence I treat this thread as the Agora, where our modern intellectuals feed us with knowledge. 😀

I knew 3&7. Krait is one of the most venomous snakes in Sri Lanka, and there's no anti venom for it. It's treated with anti venoms made for other snakes and the effectiveness is not really good. Hence a majority bitten by it dies in Sri Lanka.

I was reading about the record holder of the longest human life span, the french lady mentioned in daily trivia. Found an interesting thing: She had sold her apartment to a notary, at age 90, on the condition.... Alright, read the Wikipedia entry below 😅 In 1965, aged 90 and with no heirs left...

Some licks are more equal than others.

I wish there was a way of making them dance the whole night too. Like someone had sprayed a little bit of water mixed with poison ivy from far away without getting noticed. You have music, now dance a little too.

I KNEW there was something missing! Long ago I had a credit card. At the end when it was time to renew it the bank refused to renew it on some reason I cannot remember now. The actual reason was that while getting all discounts they offered through vendors, I never actually left anything unpaid...
