What should i do for an elderly quiz?

So i do a biweekly quiz, there's normally 20 random general knowledge questions, followed by 10 questions with a common theme, the theme for the next one is "numbers" so all answers must be a number.

Can anyone recommend some for me?? I've got some basics down but need some more!!

AIO for refusing to help my sister on my sons birthday (today)

I (F25) have 4 kids, today is my oldest child's birthday( lets call him luke), he's 8 woooo, I had the day planned out for just us two while the other 3 were at school.

This morning I got my kids ready for school, my brother took them off to school. Me and luke started getting ready to go out to LegoLand for the day when my half sister (who I barely know and didn't grow up with) showed up,knocked on my door, ran and left her two toddlers on my doorstep and yelled from her car that she would be back around 4.

I didn't agree to look after them AT ALL, it's my sons birthday I wanted it to be fun not babysitting. I didn't want to fully ruin his day so I decided to suck it up and took her girls with us to legoland. However it meant I was constantly watching over her kids rather than spending time with me. They got in for free, so that aspect doesn't bother me.

While out she also messaged me asking me if I could phone some of our family (dad's side) about coming to her wedding because I'm close to them.

I'm not, they spent years torturing me, I just grew up with them, which she's fully aware of.

We got home around 4:30 and she picked them up about 30 minutes ago and we got into a massive argument about abandonment and expectations and she brought up our dad and stated "Even he would be disappointed in how badly you treat family". I text the family group chat (only dad's side) to ask if theyd been invited yet, knowing its gunna cause her some hassle.

I feel like I let her stress me out and ruin my sons birthday and I was supper petty as a response to it.

AIO for letting such small things stress me out?

Tv you can smell

Like when you're watching TV,you should have a special device that sees what's on the screen and automatically releases a scent identical to what would be on the TV.

They're in a cafe, you smell coffee

In the woods, nature/trees /animal shit

In a room full of dead bodies? Something gross.

You can turn it on and off ya horny weirdos

I've known this friend since we were 14 and we have been relatively close since then and she's one of two friends I tend to meet up with.

I've been dating \*red guy\* for about 2 1/2 years. My friend has never met him and has only ever seen pictures of him + whatever I've told her which really hasn't been much, we aren't really talkative friends. Yet she sent me this message after we hadn't spoken in about 6 weeks. I got mad and blocked her immediately, I'm starting to feel like I overreacted because it was just a few words? Idk. I'm probably being petty which is why I want your opinions. ❤️

ETA: she has made comments about him being ugly in the past too, along with most men I've dated. It would also not make any sense for it to be a prank if it wasn't due to him being "ugly"

My Ex friends are threatening me I'm 25F and I knew two people who were 38F and 47M, they have 3 kids, two boys with extensive special needs and a girl with awful mental health. Over the course of my friendship with them I learnt that they do coke while in bed with their 5 year old, have had sex in the same bed with him awake. The mother would send her two older children to her father for weekends knowing he was a n0nce, in exchange she was guaranteed money when he died. They took their girl out of therapy once she admitted she wanted to kill her brothers and a lot more has happened.

I reported them to social services and they assumed (correctly) that it was me. They moved quickly after that and have since sent threatening messages towards my mother regarding me (I have them both blocked) stating how the dad was going to come down here and have it out with me, he is an ex prison guard, going to snap my neck and teach me to shut up and have since deleted the messages and then threatened to sue me for slander.

I'm not overly worried about him coming down. But any advice on either would be super helpful
