I should probably get around to seeing Donnie Darko, since I had no idea what that clue was.

For those of us rural people that actually go to the event, we call it the Demo Derby. Would consider accepting that.

What is a DUI?

It is the crime of "Driving Under the Influence" of alcohol. (or drugs, I presume)

How is it that Donnie Darko is one of my favorite movies, but I have absolutely NO RECOLLECTION of Patrick Swayze being in it??
+3
Level 70
Oct 22, 2018
It's a minor role. Granted, it's a good minor role but it's still minor. Feels like a bit of a stretch to call the film a "Patrick Swayze movie". Yes, he's in it and it's more than a cameo, but that's kind of a low bar to word it like that.

He's the fear guru! He appears in the video series that Ms. Farmer forces the kids to watch, and he's also the one who finds Donnie on the golf course. The ending of the movie also has a LOT to do with his character. Gosh, I love that movie...

It's true. The elevator doors took about 30 seconds to close at the retirement village where my grandmother use to live.

She lived in a retirement village which had a 1st floor (not sure whether you have a ground floor in the US but I mean the level above the ground floor)?

Or was it to get down into the wine cellar?

I'm legitimately surprised that many people got "Danny DeVito". I thought I would have been in the minority of people who enjoy awful Arnold/DeVito films.

I tried duster devil and devil duster.. :( and I got derby but coukdnt think of a second word... (tried disco and driving..) and am allmost positive I typed double dutch correctly. Not with capitals or a space, but that isnt necessary right?

Must have somehow done something wrong, cause (though I have seen a few) these quizzes are usually correct.

For that horrendous casserole that Chicagoans have the gall to call "pizza", the quiz should accept "disgusting deception".

I tried "delivery date" for "Nine months after conception." Of course, the due date is not always the delivery date - some little ones are early; some are late.

I tried "dirt devil" before thinking of "dust devil."

I tried delinquent daddy. Some of these phrases are not used our side of the Atlantic, so I have learned something today. Thanks Jetpunk.
