How to use these questions

Step 1: Decide on quiz or conversation

Use the 20 factual questions when you want points and a winner. Use the 10 friend questions when you want laughs and conversation. Many groups start with the friend questions as a warm-up and finish with the quiz.

Step 2: Export the quiz with one click

The export buttons under the interactive quiz send all 20 factual questions, with the correct answers marked, to Google Forms, Kahoot, Blooket or Gimkit. Exporting to these platforms is a paid Formswrite feature.

Step 3: Or build it by hand

Every question is written out on this page, so you can also copy them into any tool. In Google Forms, turn on quiz mode and set the answer key.

Tips for asking funny questions

Pause before the reveal. Strange facts land best when people have had a moment to argue about the options.
Keep it kind. Friend questions should poke fun at situations, not at people in the room.
Let people explain their picks. The stories behind a would you rather answer are usually funnier than the answer itself.
Use the explanations. The Salmon Act 1986 or the Great Emu War almost always starts a conversation.
In class, run the factual quiz as a Friday brain break and let students write their own weird fact questions for next week.

FAQ

Are the weird facts in this quiz actually true?

Yes. Each factual question is based on well-documented sources, such as the UK Salmon Act 1986, Britannica on the Anglo-Zanzibar War, and Olympic records for tug of war. Popular myths were left out on purpose.

What are good funny multiple choice questions to ask friends?

Questions with no wrong answer work best, like which animal would be the funniest roommate or whether you would rather sneeze glitter or hiccup bubbles. The 10 friend questions on this page are a good starting point.

Can I play these funny questions in Kahoot or Gimkit?

Yes. The export buttons under the interactive quiz send the 20 factual questions to Kahoot, Blooket, Gimkit or Google Forms. Exports are included in Formswrite's paid plans.

Why are the would you rather questions not in the interactive quiz?

Yes. All 30 questions are family friendly, so they work for classrooms, youth groups, family gatherings and office icebreakers.
