Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Stop it! You're annoying me when you sing about John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt! What do people shout whenever they see him?

Answer: "There goes John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt!"

"John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt" is an annoying earworm I learned as a child. The lyrics are repeated ad nauseam; here they are, as I learned them:
"John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt,
His name is my name, too,
And whenever we go out,
We can hear the people shout,
'There goes John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt!'
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da!"

2. Stop it! You're annoying when you repeat that American advertising slogan made famous by that chihuahua! What did the little dog say?

Answer: "iYo quiero Taco Bell!"

The slogan means "I want Taco Bell!" Unfortunately for both dog lovers and Taco Bell aficionados, Gidget, the primary dog who played the Taco Bell Chihuahua, went to doggy heaven in 2009.

3. Stop it! You're annoying me when you keep saying "Ditto!" like followers of that right-wing U.S. talk-radio host! What's his name again?

Answer: Rush Limbaugh

Rush Hudson Limbaugh III is notorious for his tirades against liberals, feminists, environmentalists, and African-Americans -- both on his show and in books such as "The Way It Ought to Be". His fans are known as Dittoheads.

Answer: curling

Curling did not gain a foothold in the United States until about 1830. At that time, a curling club formed near Detroit, Michigan.

5. Stop it! You're annoying me by constantly using those big words! Which big word describes the kind of words you use?

Answer: sesquipedalian

"Sesquipedalian" is the word that fits its own definition; it refers to long, polysyllabic words. "Pseudopodial" refers to a means of locomotion used by some single-celled animals. "Callipygian" means having beautiful buttocks. "Antidisestablishmentarian" has to do with opposition to the removal of state sponsorship from religion.

6. Stop it! You're annoying me with your constant braying! Which animal brays?

Answer: donkey

In the movie "Who's Afraid of Virginia Wolf?", George accuses his wife, Martha, of braying. She responds by braying, "I do not bray!"

7. Stop it! You're annoying me by always talking about the Kardashian sisters! Which woman below is NOT one of these famous-for-being-famous siblings?

Answer: Khrystyne

Khrystyne is not a Kardashian. However, there is at least one famous person by that name: Khrystyne Haje played Simone Foster on the U.S. television show "Head of the Class".

Answer: Milli Vanilli

Milli Vanilli's Grammy was revoked because of the scandal. Their lip-synched hit was called, again rather ironically, "Girl, You Know It's True". The duo consisted of Fab Morvan and Rob Pilatus.

Answer: Edward Bulwer-Lytton

Edward Bulwer-Lytton, the English author also known as the first Baron Lytton, was so notorious for his purple prose that there is now a contest named for him. The contest challenges writers to compose the first sentence to the ultimate bad novel.

10. Stop it! You're annoying me with your mounted facsimile fish, which keeps singing "Take Me to the River"! What's that fish's name again?

Answer: Big Mouth Billy Bass

"Take Me to the River" was a hit for Al Green. I also once owned a Levon Helm picture disc with a version of the same song.

Marlin Perkins was not a fish. He hosted "Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom", which I used to watch when I was a kid. Oddly, I thought at the time that his name was Mutual Ovomaha.
