aerodynamite can host the next round if he's available and I'll do the one after his. You can go ahead if you're ready now. I would prefer to go after you since my two rankdowns are due soon.

How in the world did two other people say apricot ... Also if they said peach, apricots are different. Good game though. Thanks for hosting. No one said it, and believe me, I was surprised. I was probably the most surprised with Kiwi fruit. I had zero idea why that was more popular than, say, banana or orange.

On second thought, does anyone else want to go ahead? I won't be ready soon either.

In other news, it's here! Pointless: Born In 1989's Round!!!- Music

- General

5. Name a coffee flavor you can find in most big coffee shops 6. Name a snack that kids often take to school 7. Name an ingredient you can add in a sweet crepe 8. Name a vegetable
9. Name one of the notable members of The Order Of The Phoenix 10. Name one of Lord Voldemort's Horcruxes 11. Name a female character from the Harry Potter series (basically, you just pick one of these) 12. Name a book first-year students at Hogwarts must have

That's all. I know most of these need some research & some help from Wikipedia or other websites. I got all of the info I needed from Google Search and I used the most popular results so you'll be fine. I wanted to include some easy questions where everyone can give a different answer & some difficult ones where the options are limited. I hope we have a lot of 0-pointers! Some Harry Potter / Greece related questions may sound clear to me but they might be hard for you to understand without further explanation. That being said, you should feel free to ask me anything. Deadline is September 23rd, 23:59:59 EST. An extension IS possible.
