Hi,
It's probably been about 7 years since I posted on this forum, but I used to be active in quizbowl in HS/College, and I help run quizbowl tournaments for very casual players at my current job, and also enjoy playing with friends. I used to get paid to write quizbowl questions, and while I haven't done anything serious in a very long time, over the last couple years I wrote a handful of trash packets. They don't have an incredibly strict distribution, they are not incredibly difficult (pyramidal and of a fair length, though I started shifting difficulty to easier as I was reading to non-quizbowl-players), but they exist and figure I might as well let people know about it if they would be interested in an organized online game or maybe just going straight to availability on an archive
I have 3 packets on "Memes", 3 packets on "Video Games", and 2 packets of "Music", and only 1/1 or less of each packet references vanity/inside joke material that I could clean up if there is any interest in this sort of thing.
Let me know if anyone actually cares about these and has interest in doing something with them.

"Memes," "Video Games," and "Music" are, respectively, my three wheelhouses in trash quiz bowl. I would be interested in seeing these questions.
