Prudence and Madness

Last December 29, my barkada and I had our post-Christmas party with the punk rock 80’s theme.  Er, supposedly it’s punk rock 80’s but nobody really followed the theme (hmph).  Most people are dressed in 80’s style, but not specifically punk rock 80’s.  But, oh well, what to do?  These are stubborn adults.  Haha.

I was one of those planned the games and I thought of having a trivia contest.  However, I found it hard to be writing only about the 80’s (’coz, you know, I was still young then, so I don’t remember much ).  What was supposedly an 80’s trivia contest just turned out to be a general TV and movie trivia contest, from the 80’s onwards.

I’m posting the questions here and I hope you’ll have fun answering.  And maybe I’ll post the answers later.
