One of my favorite quotes from the show The big bang theory. [Sheldon is going on and on about scientific babble to Penny].
Penny: Even you have to admit that’s jibber jabber
Sheldon: Do you know where the term jibber jabber come from?
Penny: OMG, you’re about to jibber jabber about jibber jabber.
Classic. 🙂
Too funny. I thought the English teacher would get fj correct and Michael would not. Just the opposite happened. I love Jeopardy. 😂
Jacob, It’s also ironic that Michael won when he got FJ wrong and lost when he got it right.
The way I was seeing it, one would not get it, one would and the other would go with the title and that’s what happened!
VJ, you were spot on.
Sandy getting a response in her own name, Hurricane Sandy looks very similar to Ben Ingram getting a response on the Big Ben Tower in London back in the 2014 Tournament of Champions.
Sandy also got one about her hometown 😁
Great job to Sandy on her win as she and michael were quick on the buzzer since Bridget couldn’t catch up to them. As a fan of Alice in wonderland, jabberwocky definitely was in my wheelhouse. I think coming up with the title won’t count it against them in final
Someone just lost their gratuity.
What do you mean that someone just lost their gratuity?
It means Bridget’s money was lost on that Daily Double.
Oh I see, it looks like that Bridget and Sandy are going to have a real challenge with each other but then the next few minutes changed dramatically.
Oh no! We got another loser! Oh well, though. I like Sandy, too! She is just so enjoyable and independent! Does anyone agree here?
