    The fucking winning question was the names of the four Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

    That’s insulting easy.

    I was the only diehard TMNT fan in my tiny 6th grade class

    How do I reach these kids!

      It was rural KKKracKKKerstan and like maybe two other people in my class had cable, and the series hadn’t been on the air for very long. These backwoods rubes were barely cognizant of (G1) Transformers, Thundercats, or Masters of the Universe, let alone their pick-me counterparts (e.g., Go-Bots and Silverhawks). By the time TMNT hit, they were barely discovering Matchbox and Hot Wheels. Micro Machines wasn’t even a blip on the radar.
