Default Geeky / embarrassing things

I'm trying to arrange a bit of a game for an upcoming event, and I need some help coming up with examples of geeky or embarrassing things to find out about people. What I want to do is ask everyone to stand, and then start asking a series of yes/no questions that will expose geekiness....if they can answer "yes," they have to sit down.

Examples...

1) Can you name all 10 Star Trek movies?

2) Have you ever paid for music by the Backstreet Boys, Celine Dion, or Britney Spears?

3) Have you ever used a piece of shag carpet as a wall decoration?


What kind of questions would you ask to embarrass people, ranging in age from 20 all the way up to 90?

Funny you guys should say that. There's one episode of TNG that I haven't seen. I have it on VHS from when I recorded it new, and I also have it on DVD. But I decided that I was going to keep one episode unseen so that at some point when I'm joning for a new Star Trek episode to watch, that I'd have one. (I had originally saved two, but a friend told me to watch the one because he figured it would tie into DS9 at some point, but it never did.)

Now that I think about it, I may have just created a new category for "how geeky are you?"

That's not a new category...that's a new planet of geekiness. You wouldn't want to risk saying which episode it is, would you?
