"I'm interested in anything that's interested in me."

Laugh at yourself, and not with your self, in the HUMOR Circle of Interest.  What! Did I say something wrong?

"How quick are your wits? Mine tend to run about 10 minutes behind."

If we can't figure out how to play EXORBIS, then it must be good enough for the witmasters around here.  Use a doo-dickey to move a doo-dickey around.  Simple as that! 

If you've got a game, puzzle, riddle, teaser, or bit of trivia to share, upload a Flash QuickWit or create your own Pitch-Punch QuickWit.

"Blame WISEOZ ... WISEOZ made me do it!"

Customizeable WISEOZ t-shirts are now available in WISE SHOP for you to create your very own witty slogan using the WISEOZ logo.

You will notice some aesthetic changes to the COUNT ME IN!, GOT IT!, and DO-OVER buttons for WiseWits.  They continue to function the same way they always have.

A purple ticker is now available on most of the main pages with real-time updates on WiseWits and other sitewide information.

MyklSkeleton won last week's challenge by identifying that Pink wore a red and black striped dress to the 2008 MTV Video Music Awards.  Dude!

Do you know what your students are doing?
Meet bkw795, that guy who swept through the REVERSE MUSICOLOGY 101 WiseWit from class ...

What's the identity the CIA told you to assume?
I'm BKW, a 19-year-old Virginia Tech student and subliminal hamburger salesman extraordinaire. This semester I'm overwhelmed with eighteen credits of math, which could be the stupidest thing I've ever done to myself. Good thing I've got Wiseoz.com to help me through it. 

Who do you blame?
I joined the site a little over a month ago at the recommendation of apeminkie and in that time I've become addicted. Just last week I interrupted Numerical Methods class just to solve stage 7 of REVERSE MUSICOLOGY 101. I'm pretty sure my friends are planning an intervention. 

Do you know any good party tricks?
Outside of this site, I really like trivia games of any kind. I love the show Jeopardy. My friends and I have Jeo-parties where we all get together and watch the show and eat nachos. I took the college online test last year and was invited to audition in New York. While there, I got to touch an actual Jeopardy buzzer. I consider this a highlight of my life. 

Are you responsible for leaving the toilet seat up in the bathroom?
Other things that keep me busy include writing (although I've never written anything worthwhile) and geocaching. Geocaching is the sport where you use GPS receivers to track down boxes that people hide in places like forests, parks, grocery store parking lots… You end up going to incredibly interesting places that you'd never know about otherwise. Plus, it beats sitting behind a computer 24 hours a day.
