    This is a shitty question for a gameshow. Either you know that only one of those bands exists or you don’t. It doesn’t require any reasoning or logic.

      I agree, but isn’t that the whole point of these shitty shows about trivia questions?

        Trick questions to remove contestants abound. I remember one in the Brazilian version, it asked something along the lines of “<Dude’s name>, founder of <local fast food chain in the 1990s>, used to do what before he created the company?”

        Said founder isn’t exactly a public figure even in business magazines and the chain, imaginatively named “Bob’s”, is the kind that people prefer to avoid most of the time, save for the milkshake.

      Fear! At the nightclub : rat

      Panic! At the disco : cat

      Make your choice accordingly.

      Panic! at the Disco is a pretty popular band. One of their most famous songs that blew up (on TikTok I think?) is House of Memories.

        blew up on tiktok

        Panic is way older than tiktok. Facebook hadnt even opened their doors to people outside of college yet when panic was popular

          The person to whom you were responding was trying to make this artifact of the Before-Times relatable to modern Homo Cephalosepses, which cannot comprehend anything from outside its natural environment of TikTok. Unfortunately, speciation has not yet led to a visible difference between the two extant species of the genus Homo, and behavioral differences are currently the only way to differentiate this new species from H. Sapiens, so this person was trying to bridge the species divide, in case the original commenter was on the other side of it.

          ETA: I suppose that I will also grant the possibility that the person to whom you replied was an H. Cephalosepses individual trying to translate to others of their kind.

            You need to get this theory on YouTube as a video series. 1. It would be funny. 2. It may teach a lot of us why our kids just want to sit around on Roblox/Minecraft all day.

              Well, we need to wait a few years to see if H. cephalosepses individuals are capable of producing viable offspring with H. sapiens, since that would indicate that Cephalosepses is actually a subspecies of H. sapiens, just like H. sapiens boomerensis
