Got it! +125 points added.

What sparked the term 'Uncle Sam' for the United States?

There was this dude who... had something to do with provisions? Meat packaging? during the... War of 1812, or was it the Civil War. Anyways I think he always had to stamp his name on the provision crates, and right next to it would be "U.S.", so everyone came to associate his name to the big "U.S." stamp.

Is it because they both can sometimes chirp? I thought car gears could, and as I was typing "gear chirp" in DuckDuckGo, "second gear chirp" was an autocomplete suggestion. I don't know if that's the answer you're looking for. The question was bugging me, lol. I researched it, but couldn't find anything really relevant.



Thanks for the points, by the way!

You're close! Try again.

You're welcome, anytime!

How did Crossbones dispatch his replacement in the Skeleton Crew?

He employed irony, by which I mean, he cut Cutthroat's throat.

While that is one (I totally forgot about that one, but I'll give you points for it), there was another one I had in mind!

In Marvel comics, Captain America wasn't initially the leader of the Avengers. How did he come to be so?

Uhh... he had... actual soldiering experience?

Name at least one confirmed DC character in Shazam! besides Billy Batson.

When you say confirmed I'm not sure if you mean present in the movie or what but my favorite is Mr.Mind (the Caterpillar)

Oh wait no, he didn't stamp his name; it was something-something U.S. and his friend joked and said the U.S. stood for Uncle Sam?

Not why, how. What was the situation that prompted it?

How are birds and cogwheels related?

I'm gonna guess, and hopefully noone said this already, but does it have anything to do with the pinions?

Merskelly Metalien 08-18-2019 08:42 PM

During what story arc was Carnage briefly a hero (and died as such)?

The Axis, where all the good guys turn bad and all the bad guys turn good? <x}

What is a reverse-harem anime?

I believe that is when there is one female main character along with many male main characters who they interact with regularly instead of one male with many females? It generally refers to a situation involving multiple love interests or boyfriends.
For example Ouran High School Host Club would be a reverse harem.

Which person from "JoJo's Bizarre Adventure" does NOT house a reference to a band, artist, or song earlier than 1980?

There are... a few. But von Stroheim is an actor.

What crime did Tucker commit to keep his license when he was up for scrutiny?

How can one forget? o-o
Fusing his little girl and his dog into a talking chimera.

Major 08-19-2019 02:12 AM

This question is just gonna drive me nuts until I figure out the answer. XD

"How are birds and cogwheels related?"

Is it because they both "chirp" as a warning?

Apparently I did say the keyword in my answer. If it’s not teeth, then perhaps barbs or barbules?

When the Flash was hesitant to engage the aliens in battle on account of lack of experience, Batman told him to do just one thing. What was it?

Save one.
