Tripre Britz!

So, Kevin and I went out last night to our local watering hole for a little destressing after his long day and a welcome break from my crocheting (which, btw, I could be done w/ the mom in law afghan sometime today ... a day ahead of schedule! I'm so excited!) It's nothing really exciting. Our friend Lady J was there playing megatouch as usual and CNN with really bad closed captioning was on the boob tube (i mean seriously! ah trossity? LEARN TO SPELL PEOPLE!!!!)

Lady J invited me over to play some trivia on the megatouch. We stuck with the music category. It's what we know best, plus it has a tasty riff that plays when you choose it. She's gonna learn and include on her first album ^_^

That was when we learned the megatouch at the Toy Box is haunted/psychic/just plain freaky! First was when we finally guessed that Harry Wayne casey was teh leader of KC and the Sunshine Band I said something like "oh! Casey...KC...I get it!" and that's when the damn megatouch put the SAME EXACT WORDS on the screen when explaining the correct answer. Okay...I kinda let that one slide seeing as the megatouch is kinda sarcastic and dumbs things down for you sometimes cuz it knows the majority of people playing are missing mega brain cells.

So a little white later a question comes up about the Champs somg "Tequila" so Lady J shares that The first time she went out and did karaoke with a group of friends they practically forced her to pick a song and sing, so she did. "Tequila" Her friends were so pissed but hey! they didn't have any stipulations! So I made a comment that she should have done like this guy did once at the White Horse when I was hosting. He picked a Milli Vanilli song and asked me to sing it and he just lip-synched. It was classic.

No sooner do the words come out of my mouth than a question on the megatouch pops up about ... yep ... Milli Vanilli. Okay. A little more freaky there.

Eventually I look up and the clock is past midnight so I say "oh. Today is the anniversary of John Lennon's death." and we get a little somber. About 2 questions later the megatouch asks us which famous apartment building did John Lennon get shot in front of. (The Dakota in case you don't know ... which if you don't WHY am i friends with you?). So now we're really freaked. And that's when we find out the jukebox is in cahoots with the megatouch. You know how when nobody plays the jukebox for awhile it will automatically kick a song out to try and tempt you to play? Well, as soon as we answer the question about John Lennon, a Beatles song starts playing on the jukebox!!!!

yep. Lady J, Kevin and I were sufficiently spooked after that. That megatouch is not for the faint of heart.
