The Doctor Who Teaser for Real Fans (Updated -- Twice)

My birthday TARDIS!

A long time ago, as in July 2011, I got this cookie jar as a birthday present! I blogged about that here. If you click there, you’ll see that Paul posted a song on his blog for my birthday, but YouTube was an asshole and took it down. However, I was able to find it again, albeit in a slightly crappier form. Oh, well. But I’ll save that for later. First, the teaser.

1. Who is the Master? Why is he special?

2. Who was Adric? Why was he special? What happened to him?

3. Who was Romana? Why was she special? What happened to her?

4. When did Sarah Jane Smith realize The Doctor was the love of her life?

5. In which early episode did River Song have a walk-on part?

6. Which came first, the Daleks, the Cybermen, or the Weeping Angels?

7. Which actor played The Doctor in the episode called “Island of the Laughing Squid”?

8. What were the Daleks a metaphorical reference to?

9. Define the word “metaphor”.

10. How many Weeping Angels can dance on a pinhead?

Bonus questions: Why does The Doctor’s TARDIS look like my cookie jar?

Could this be a TARDIS?

Hmmm … ?

Well, she of the Doctor Who definitions …?

Are you a real blogger?

PS: You’ll find a lot of answers in that book I gave you that you probably threw out.

PPS: Here’s a hint. There are trick questions! Ha!

I was watching Doctor Who years before blogs were so fucking hot. So, here you go! And, of course, there’s Wikipedia.

In the unlikely event that the person taking this quiz knows someone with special knowledge, such as Neil Gaiman, it would be cheating to get the answers from that person.

BTW, thank you, Stephen Fry!

And thank you for your video about depression, which I posted here. I know how it feels to suffer depression.

Finally, the awesome birthday song, which I’ve pinned under Music.

Thank you for being you, Paul!

Paul with my donated book!

Paul!

Paul and me at THE Brentwood Library!

Let’s pretend to take a quick spin in the TARDIS!

Thanks, Steve! May the force be with us all.

Answers with videos on Friday!

UPDATE: Hey, everyone in the world on the Internet! You want to hear read the dumbest funniest thing?

Some asshole pretending to be Paul (and doing a really crappy job of it) tried to leave a really, really retarded comment that Paul would never make in a million years in this post. Thank goodness for spam filters, huh?

Someone must have lots of time on their almost perfectly good hands, huh? Well, I’ve had fun all day ignoring whoever you are and doing my fucking job.

Real conversation with my husband while we were walking today:

H: Your heel-toe walking is looking better.

W: I know. I just wish my hand would work better.

[boring stuff, which I'll skip]

H: You’re not a nerd.

W: Oh, but I am. That’s why I’m always laughing at Sheldon on The Big Bang. In fact, I’m sort of like Sheldon, but not really.

[Blogger's note: I'm really more like Leonard. I'm Leonard with a vagina, no glasses and dystonia. Ha!]

H: If only you were good at computers.

W: Hey! Paul’s a computer genius. If we put our heads together, imagine the possibilities!

Some people simply don’t understand cosmic humor. Oh, well …

Pin these!

Ha! Caught ya!

UPDATE 2: Hey, here’s a Time Lord …

And here’s a Thyme Lord. Ha ha ha …

Thank you, Paul! And thanks to my husband, who’s a saint.

Aren’t we awesome?

Finally, since I didn’t have my own quotation to end this with, I’ll borrow this highly appropriate one from Nik Nak’s Old Peculiar:

“A man is but the product of his thoughts. What he thinks, he becomes.”

Mohandas K. Gandhi 2 October 1869 – 30 January 1948

I’ll be back … ha!
