Why is that show called Who wants to be a Millionaire when you have to pay taxes in the USA and therefore don‘t walk out with 1 million dollar? Misleading title lol Here in Germany you don‘t pay taxes on winnings of such shows.

Interesting trivia: On Bernie's $500,000, "simoom" refers to a hot wind, usually covered with sand (basically winds you'd find in the Arabian desert); "string theory" is a concept in physics, and is occasionally the titular "theory of everything" (I have no idea how it works, though); and "saprobity" connects to toxic waste and when matter decays.
