Why is it trivia? People call it trivia because they know nothing and they are embarrassed about it.

I think I'm a trivia nerd. I love to learn about everything. I'm curious.

I'm always trolling for trivia.

One of my great passions is the collection of historical trivia.

The Final Jeopardy! questions seem to be, by design, things you can't know. And so it's not about who knows them, but who can figure them out in thirty seconds.

I think what makes 'Jeopardy!' special is that, among all the quiz and game shows out there, ours tends to encourage learning.

Math, it's a puzzle to me. I love figuring out puzzles.

I have failed 'Star Wars' trivia tests. People come up to me at conventions and use terms that I've never heard of.

I have that special sort of novelist body of knowledge which is extraordinarily wide and very, very shallow. So I can usually answer the questions on 'Jeopardy,' but never the bonus question.

My reading is extremely eclectic. Lately I've been teaching myself computer graphics, so I'm reading a lot about that. I read books of trivia, of facts.
