Can you imagine going to a standup night, and at one point someone gets up from their seat and asks the comic to clarify whether they meant that the dog itself had a terrible smell, or whether its sense of smell was terrible, because what they’d said is slightly ambiguous?

Well, don’t be that person in the comments under a quiz. Fifteen questions of a vaguely topical or general knowledge nature, littered with some jokes that don’t need to be fact-checked.
