ReplyDeleteGreat references. You've inspired me to write one of my own family-inside-joke quizzes. :)
The inspiration for The Quizzes is actually this ytmnd. There's no way you'll get it because ytmnd is nothing but inside jokes and this has all of them. I would explain it to you, but that would be a post in itself.
