There’s nothing trivial about having a baby, but there’s plenty of trivia about having babies, raising babies, making babies and songs with “baby” in the name.
I’ll take “Baby Trivia Questions” for 100, Alex, since that seems to be a popular game at the baby showers – at least, that’s what I hear. These events are off-limits to males outside of the expectant father, and rightfully so, since we’re much better at trivia than women.
