After suffering a painful defeat at trivia night at O'Malley's last night, I've decided to become a sort of real-world Batman. I won't be donning a cape or anything, no matter how badass that'd be, but I will be fighting some of the dirtiest scoundrels known to man.

That's right: I'm talking about trivia cheaters.  I'm not saying we didn't lose fair and square - one of the three teams who scored higher in the end probably did deserve all those points.  The dudes who got a perfect score and took home the $50 gift certificate, however, clearly did not win fair and square.  This isn't sore losing, people - I watched the one guy excuse himself outside for a little cell phone break after just about every question.

Then there's the other type of cheater: the wasted chicks who think a coy smile and a little extra cleavage will elicit a correct answer from other teams around the bar.  It may not have worked on steely trivia pros such as ourselves, but it sure worked on the guy with the blinking LED belt displaying his phone number.

I know not everyone has integrity and it's real tempting to just cheat your way to a $50 gift certificate, but come on - don't ruin it for everyone else.  Since nobody else is going to do anything about it, it's time for me to take matters into my own hands.  I will now be "that guy" at the bar - the trivia crusader who reports every cell phone usage, every shared/shouted answer... I'll be your worst nightmare.

So be on notice, trivia cheaters.  I'm-a comin' fer ya and I ain't showin' no mercy.
