Saarang Online Quiz 02 - Answers

21 02 2008

Once again, a post that’s been waiting for a while now. Somehow, the answers of the set 02 was never officially released and the winners weren’t announced either. What a splendid way to hold on-line events. Put up questions there, promise prizes and then conveniently forget about it.

Here are the answers ( or atleast I believe they are) to the questions of Saarang Online Quiz #02. But before I present that, here’s a copy of the questions.

Hey, the answer to 5) is so obvious.

It is the couch from Central Perk( F.R.I.E.N.D.S) where the friends hang out all the time.

I’m sure you must be slapping your forehead, going “Oh yeah, damn, how could I have missed it” .

@Srividya,

Ah, DAMN!! (cursing)(some more cursing)

But that’s the right answer. I’ll now give you extra points if you attend ORK later :)

Ok,sure. Though I am not as good as you guys. Will make an attempt.

Karthik (13:23:36) :

As good as us guys ? LOL. If you are refering to Vinod,(or other professional quizzers like him) then it’s probably valid. Shiva and Hari also belong to a league of their own!! Hari = watha range and shiva = stud

You have a very odd grasp of superlatives.

Karthik (16:11:42) :

They are widely accepted superlatives in the circles I was refering to. Doesn’t matter if you didn’t get it.
