#29: Loser Holidays, Desperate Singles, Worst Chat Up Line, Least Popular Person, and Would a Fox or Badger Win in a Fight?

I’ve just asked Jeeves “Where is the place that only a loser would visit?”. The second website in the list was for the Sheraton South Padre Island Beach Hotel, in Texas. According to the site a 4 star hotel, although you would think that they would have provided a better picture of the hotel to Expedia, I thought Texas was supposed to be sunny.


This got me think what other questions could I ask Jeeves that no-one would normally?

“Who has the most desperate personal ad no the internet” lead me to a website called greatguy.com where it seems that the sites creators mate “Blaise” is pretty dam desperate.

“What is the worst chat up line of all time” according to Jeeves its “When it comes to our favourite directors who have also been accused of statutory raps and fallen foul of manic death cults the Roman Polanski is probably in the top five”, but I don’t know I guess it could work, it’s all about delivery.

I asked Jeeves who was the least popular person of all time. A survey was carried out in 1974 by Madame Tussaud’s that revealed the least popular person of all time was Richard Nixon, beating Hitler and Jack the Ripper to the number one spot. “Blaise” did not feature in the top 5 but it was an international survey maybe if it had just been carried out in Canada…..

Finally “Would a Fox or a Badger win in a fight” by seven votes to one the winner would be the Badger.
