People who are fans of QI are interested in sports, animals, and EVERYTHING. That’s why every show is so anticipated. You’re never sure what you’ll learn. There is nothing like it on American TV. We would be at each other’s throats less than five minutes into the show!

[@crazylizard1889]

If Ross slapping Alan had been on American QI, there'd have been some bs twitter explosion and ego-driven celebrity beef. Assuming the show got past episode 1 because standup comics in America aren't funny.

Some years ago at the Servite Order priest's house in Dublin, a visiting Italian priest saw a painting over a mantlepiece (I think) and immediately recognised it as a Caravaggio worth aboy 50 million pounds at the time.. It is now on permanent loan to the National Gallery.

Regarding de Coubertin and anonymous competitors. Fencers do wear a mask. Also in 1900 Paris, the men's coxed pairs winners used an unknown French boy as their cox. The winners had used a 60 kg man as their cox in the semis. They saw that one of the other semi-finalists used a boy weighing about 25 kg. They recruited an unknown French boy to substitute in the Final.

[@Stoggler]

Fencers don’t wear masks permanently!

World Eskimo Indian Games. Another event the USA has labelled as "World" when only people of the USA compete in it. Much like the World Series in Baseball that only had USA-based teams playing until the Montreal Expos joined Major League Baseball in 1969. Unlike the Arctic Winter Games which have athletes from the indigenous peoples of the circumpolar region that have been held since 1970. So indigenous people of Canada, the USA, Scandinavia, Russia (until the invasion of the Ukraine I believe), etc.

Ze Germans never invaded Holland before 1940, England has tried numerous times throughout the centuries and Holland invaded England twice (sorta), so historically seeing the English and Dutch should be more rivals to eachother as the Germans and Dutch should.

🎉 The building at 1.10 looks like the Marina bay hotel in Singapore. Yes, the original entry point for Australia’s indigenous peoples was most likely Indonesia. Yes, the Chinese have had a long history of Australian emigration, particularly in the gold rush years. They also beat Cook and the Dutch for navigation, mapping parts of the north of Australia in the 1400’s Finally, we’re not really entitled to be upset by this one. The grief we give the Poms about their country kinda disqualifies us from being offended.

That reasoning for why one set of games on the olympics survived and the others didn't makes no sense whatsoever.

It makes plenty of sense. The olympics was intended for amatuers. The art events were filled with professional artists.

As an American, I do not understand how the Europeans can call Socialists - even National socialists - “far-right.” Socialism, by definition, is far-left, isn’t it?

[@lloyd_r]

It's a trick the left do to wash their hands of any responsibility for their political beliefs. They do it all the time

[@SpartacusSPQ]

1) Socialism is not far-left, in most countries social Democrats are center-left and one of the largest political movements in Europe. Very mainstream. I know in USA the word is misused as a slur, to oppose progressive ideas quite normal in the rest of the world, like mandatory paid motherhood leave or other worker’s protection. They are not extreme, but USA is extremely backward. 2) national socialists (nazionalsosilistisch) were directly opposed to socialism and Communism (which IS far-left) typical far-right behaviour is concentrating on national identity, a strong leader and the military (like Republicans). The Nazies posed as a worker’s party but was funded and supported by German industrials. Like Republicans. So, socialism is not far-left and Nazies were anti-socialists despite the deliberately misleading name.
