Now the question that forced half of the players awake.

 

[Rita]

 

[octophone]

 

[dmlaw]

I thought Princess Grace was a certainty for points. It was Grace Kelly. There was a fuck-awful film, people!

 

[BoysForSeles]

Surprised several said Go West!

[Alla]

I thought fiercely heterosexual Albert of Monaco was the obvious answer here, I still can't believe I missed that one.

 

[octophone]

You don't "wear" dreadlocks. It's your own hair, ffs.

I would also argue that cornrows and dreadlocks are different.

 

[Alla]

Dear god, these answers are impossible, I'm gonna finish LAST.

 

[Rita]

Oh no I am doing TERRIBLY!! This question was difficult though, but I think I got the jist of it by the time I eventually submitted my answers.

 

[Rita]

Dear god, these answers are impossible, I'm gonna finish LAST.

Hang in there babe. We shall rise like the Phoenix from the FLAMES.

 

[octophone]

Rasta Hat (Rhythmbarbican)

 

[Alla]

The hair is not technically something you're wearing, is it?

A five way tie at the top! But who will last till the end?

 

[Rita]

Felipe of Spain is GORGEOUS. Where has he been all my life? I think I would fit in rather well with Royalty.

 

[Alla]

18 after this debacle? That's only because other people are doing TERRIBLY BAD.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

You don't "wear" dreadlocks. It's your own hair, ffs.

I would also argue that cornrows and dreadlocks are different.

You can argue as much as you like.

 

[floppet]

I was going to put dreadlocks but then I thought that you don't wear hair so I changed it.

 

[Rita]

17. I am not doing TOO badly.

 

[wendy the Go_At]

Ooh 9th! That won't last long

 

[northernlad]

18 after this debacle? That's only because other people are doing TERRIBLY BAD.

I mean, you're welcome.

 

[dmlaw]

I agree that you don't wear dreadlocks but it's still the fashion choice that I most associate with cultural appropriation, and that's the game after all.
