Max Powers you don't need to follow buzz feed. It's obviously ikea. Where else do you for kitchens and meatballs? It isn't Rome. I wouldn't waste time in Rome looking at kitchens and eating meat balls. There's far better things to do and eat in Rome.
+Penetrationskommentar It's essentially asking where would you take a picture of a kitchen you can't afford while having a "meatball" break (meatball being another important part of the clue). The only one that makes any sense is Ikea because it's a furniture store (taking pics of a kitchen you can't afford) while the rest of the choices are cities. Also, Ikea is a Swedish company (hence Swedish "meatballs") and the Ikea stores have places in them where you can get things to eat and drink. It is a convoluted question but I was able to figure it out just with the clues and Ikea was really the only choice that many any sense in relation to the clues.
vtt355 When I saw ikea I thought of furniture but I haven’t been to IKEA but still if it was a mathematical wuestion or a question about general knowledge not some random store then I would consider that as an actual question that should belong on a show like this.
+adamwv why? at least in scandinavia swedish meatballs are the best. and ikea sells them at all their stores. its about knowing how to connect dots too. had i not known this i might not have gotten it right.
+adamwv None of the cities have anything to do with kitchens. Ikea sells kitchens. Ikea is swedish. Sweden is famous for its meatballs. Seems easy enough?
+Unahim sweden is famous for its hospitality and welcoming culture for you to say it's meatballs is misleading and maligning it's muslim citizens it's enough that we have to hear rascist crap on the bbc continually but a few thousand Syrians who just need shelter and an opportunity to live in accordance to there faith... i don't think so .. so no swedish meatballs are not why we should think of ikea
@@supertony4708 Yes, I'm sure he's intelligent, but his ego got in the way of him answering the question. He didn't think about the question long enough. I understood the question and I am not a genius, nor do I go on Buzzfeed. It was just the obvious answer.
@@supertony4708 Nah... I've never heard of Buzzfeed but could easily deduct the answer from the elements of the question. I think he was to busy showing off. A smart person doesn't talk about how smart he is all the time, he's calm and collected and has a healthy and humble respect to his weakspots
It was a pretty basic question. His logic does not make any sense. Why Paris, London or Rome, anythree of em could be expensive depending on the restaurant. But not IKEA, ikea serves affordable meat balls and every trip to IKEA, you literally have meat balls. I am assuming I never went to IKEA. He effed up big time and must have read the question carefully.
I'd still trust this guy as a physician. He stayed calm through a ridiculous question and picked a fairly logical answer, and showed that he doesn't waste his time with the triviality of mindless pop culture.
Alan Rowley "Kitchen selfie" is a rather obscure concept. I, for one, have never heard of it. Who knows, maybe people like to take photos with Italian chefs when in Rome. And of course the "meatball break" could easily happen in Rome as well.
Pharaoh 300 I know some people are stupid , I never read the article and just by simple process of elimination which you learn in grade school I got the answer.
+Inuki TV I agree, this guy watched as a kid and he studied until he had the courage to go on there and try win something, the question was stupid and he definitely should get a second chance.
Are you kidding? This question was ridiculously easy, and you dont need to have been to Ikea to get the answer. If he was as smart as he said he was, he could have easily used logic, common sense and the process of elimination. Taking selfies in Kitchens? Ok, with that, we could easily surmise that it would be bizarre for that to fit with any of the country answers. Most people know Ikea sells furniture. So the "multiple kitchens" and taking pictures in them fits perfectly into a scenario at an Ikea store. The only hard part of the qeustion, and the part meant to trip you up, would be the meatballs. For me, ive never been to Ikea, but I would safely assume that meatballs are sold there, because again. The kitchen part of the question doesn't logically fit with any of the other answers. So they obviously MUST sell meatballs in Ikea. Thing is though. he KNEW THEY DID! Which is why he failed fairly, by getting the EASIEST part of the question wrong.
They have begun selling meatballs after they opened an IKEA restaurant. It's one of the few places in Czech republic you can eat well, but it's not the cheapest choice.
I laughed for a solid minute, not at the fact he got it wrong, but his reaction when he was told. Literally the embodiment of "you've gotta be f*cking kidding me."
- Look, if you had one shot, or one opportunity, to seize everything you ever wanted, in one moment, Would you capture it, or... - *Rome, final answer.* - ...
TheCommunistTwilight well that just made you sound a bit thick, didn't it. To confidently arrive at the correct answer to this question, two things are required: 1. Knowledge of Ikea. 2. (Some) knowledge of what Buzzfeed is. I've never set foot in Ikea and certainly didn't know it was a restaurant. Even if I did, I still don't know what a 'meatball break' is. I mean, if it's literally what the words suggest, then I'm still lost as to the relevance of this with "twentysomethings". You see? Traditionally, the first question on millionaire requires little to no intellect. And this alone would lead somebody to the "obvious answer" of Rome, since anybody 'with half a brain' knows that meatballs go hand in hand with pasta, pasta is associated with Italy, and Rome is in Italy.
Plus, I thought the whole point of Ikea was cheap furniture. So that would completely throw me as well. As for Buzzfeed, I see it posing as a news source on faceboook from time to time but couldn't give you a single detail about it.
For a first question that was somewhat hard. Usually the first question is so easy, even a mildly retarded person can figure it out, because 3 of the possible answers are absurd. One could make an argument linking meatballs and Rome together like this guy did.
@@jeffjackson9679 as well as taking selfies in kitchens they cant afford? Doesnt make any sense. Just from looking at the answers, not knowing the question and considering its the first question you should know its ikea...
@@WarringFighter how does Stephen Kershaw look more stupid than this dumb American or yourself!? He has stated a fact....the question, had the egotistical numb nut read it, was so clearly Ikea....who goes to Rome to snap selfies in kitchens they can't afford?

All the people pissed at the show for the question are all equally as dumb as the egotistical numpty on the show.
Poor man. Was expecting someone bragging about how clever they were to be made to look stupid by getting the first question wrong. But, to be fair, this is the most ridiculous question I think I’ve ever seen on a game show. My sympathies to the man.
On the one hand it was a very stupid question that should never have made it on to the show. On the other hand the fact that he was bragging about being so smart does make me wanna jump around slapping my buttcheeks and making fart noises
Colin Tatum yes but the first question in Millionaire always has that comical answer D. In fact there are memes about it. So the way they present the answers is dirty as hell
The question is not about buzzfeed... its about Ikea, Buzzfeed is just a source for the quote. You dont need to know a single thing about Buzzfeed to get this question.
Will Healy actually the question isn’t that dumb, it’s one of those questions where logical reasoning can get you the correct answer, sometimes it’s not knowing the answer, but using what you have to work it out. The hint “taking selfies in kitchens you can’t afford” literally screams ikea
If you think about the question logically, three of the answers are _cities_ and one is a store. If the answer were any of the cities, that would presume that the city would have publicly accessible kitchen displays where a person _could_ take a selfie. Surely, private individuals, especially those with kitchens "fancy" enough that most people couldn't afford them, wouldn't allow "tourists" into their kitchens (or, houses in general) for the mere purpose of taking a selfie. The only _logical_ answer is the one _store_ on the list, a place that commonly _does_ have various room displays open to the public. Same could be said of Lowes, Home Depot, etc., especially when it comes to kitchens.
+houseofaction Not entirely true, some of the best chefs in the world are italian and have famous kitchens that are incredibly expensive, so that could be what it's referring to.
Omar Khan you are not listening Non of the other answers had anything to do with both Kitchens and meatballs get it in your thick skull. the only fucking answer that had anything to do with both was Ikea this guy is in fact a fucking moron
houseofaction wow, you must be fun at parties. It depends on the context you percieve it in. Meatballs are italian, chefs kitchens = italian, rome = italian. I'm not saying you're wrong, but surely you see where the other side is coming from.
Omar Khan wrong Meatballs origin is china and can date back to Qin Dynasty (221 BC to 207 BC) more over swedish meatballs are by far the most popular and well known meatball on earth. you are not getting what i am saying you can not just take the word meatball and use that as a basis to answer the question you have to use both meatballs and kitchens to answer the questions since Ikea is the only answer that has something to do with both Meatballs(there swedish meatball dinner in the ikea restaurant) and kitchens(something they sell) the only logical conclusion is the answer would be Ikea. no matter how you spin it this guy is a moron
"twentysomething", "in kitchens they can't afford", and "meatball"-- all three of those together should have been the biggest giveaway that it's IKEA. Doesn't excuse from being a ridiculous question though.
well that, and even if you didnt get it from those, the fact that 3 of them are cities and then one that doesnt fit, on he 1st question its always the one that stands out...i mean hell, you dont even have to read the question to know its going to be Ikea.

I think a question that make sense is, you can answer without giving you the 4 choices. OTOH, I can eat meatballs and taking selfies in any kitchen in any house at any city.
"Snapping pictures in kitchens you can't afford and taking a meatball break". The guy admits he knows Ikea has meatballs if he knew that it's pretty safe to assume he knows they have model kitchens as well, not to mention it's the obvious odd one out. I don't know anything about this guy but i do know this was and obvious question.
I've never been to Ikea. I didn't know they sell meatballs there. I wouldn't have even guessed that. But, the kitchens you can't afford thing gives it away. 😂
are you serious? it's the first questions, they are always stupid. He failed cause HE is stupid. Being smart implies to me watching a few episodes of a series when going to take part in it to win money if he would have done that he knew the first question is always easy and more thought of as a joke, so it's not going to be "Rome"
But he knew that Ikea sold meatballs. Like, it's the only answer that made sense among that selection, but he talked himself out of it, while arbitrarily guessing "Rome".
The question is essentially "What place is famous for its kitchens and its meatballs". There weren't really that many options to answer it correctly. Ikea sells furnitures, which include kitchens, and their Swedish meatballs are bizarrely popular.
Good point. I'm sure it was nerves. He's a shy person. His fast talking and then overly-fast decision are symptoms of that. I can relate. When I'm under pressure I am overly decisive, rather than overly cautious.
Pretty much made up by media on a slow news day. Then this show mentions the story likely as a marketing tie-in. Very dumb question when the source is dubious at best.
The source is a random buzzfeed employees brain.. He was meant to use his psychic powers to know what some random at buzzfeed thinks millennials are into... millionaire had gone down hill.
@@fishels3895 I'm sure there are some lovely kitchens in Rome, but you don't go around "taking selfies" in them and thinking about their affordability - why would you? That's something you do in a homeware store. Also, meatballs are associated with Sweden, not Italy.

Why would a twentysomething be in Europe taking selfies in kitchens? Anyway, saying you're smart on national TV and then immediately doing something dumb is quite embarrassing.
As if you have to read Buzzfeed to know that the only logical place to snap selfies in a kitchen you can't afford is Ikea. He even admitted to knowing that they serve meatballs in Ikea.. I mean.. Logic would have saved this man.
Oh yeah why's that? Him not knowing the answer to this stupid question doesn't have jack to do with his skills as a doctor. Why don't you get really good at something then have people not want your help with it because you didn't know the answer to a totally unfair question? Yep, think before you judge someone
their market is newly wed or people who just graduated and started a career, not the market of "Habitat". They are affordable compared to their competitors.
googleslocik Ikea sells furniture, which you can walk around alot and snap selfies. They are also famous for their swedish meaballs they sell in their café. It's obviously talking about Ikea. You don't go to Rome to buy furniture and eat swedish meatballs do you?
I think this question was constructed specifically to deceive someone into thinking D was a joke answer rather than the correct 1 as D has traditionally been used as a foolish joke answer in the past on the show. This coupled with the fact that all the other answers are unrelated to IKEA could make a hasty contestant, such as this 1, completely disregard IKEA and pick Rome thinking meatballs are traditionally italian hence from Rome and could sort of string together rome as a place with expensive kitchens that "nobody could afford" due to Italy in general being well known for its cuisine. Its not an impossibly difficult question but moreso a deceptively constructed question aimed at tripping someone up that tried to rush through it like this unlucky soul.
@@Anteater23 you clearly don't watch the show. The first question usually has answer D being a joke, there is a small paused for the canned laughter and they move on. I don't blame the guy, it's usually safe to assume question 1 is a,b or c. Also who can't afford IKEA furniture in their 20s? It's literally the cheapest option.. And do people really call it a TRIP to go shopping at IKEA? And who is going to IKEA for their first time in their 20s? And why would you snap a selfie in the kitchen section as a must, on your first trip, in your twenties? Usually you go to IKEA as a kid and get meatballs for the first time, and if your the type of loser that takes selfies in fake kitchens, wouldn't you of done that FOR THE FIRST TIME as maybe a teenager? The questions retarded, people are more likely to visit Rome for their first time in their 20s than IKEA, PERIOD.
Eightosaurus Spelunk it's trivia mixed with common sense questions that you can reason out with process of elimination. The only knowledge required is when to guess when to ask for help and when to walk away.
Common sense says you take selfies in kitchens in Rome? Common sense would have said "gee, this is a $500 question.. 3 answers are cities and one is a place I know has meatballs and kitchens..hmm"
I have never been to Ikea. I must live under a rock. I knew it wasn't Paris or London. Rome is in Italy but selfies there and meatballs in Rome didn't sound right. I'd have asked the audience
He literally didn't know the answer and he guessed it, then immediately said 'final answer' with zero debate. I wouldn't want him anywhere near me as a Doctor! Especially if this is how he handles pressure lol.
This was a warm-up question dat was not meant to be taken seriously, esp whenever the word 'Buzzfeed' is included.. I got the answer right btw, becoz Ikea is indeed a place where young people starting on their own place would go to make purchases & they do have wonderful showrooms where selfies are taken & with the added plus of a Swedish meatball break with their own cafetaria or food stall there.. so dat was a no-brainer..but he unluckily used his brains way too early..
+Robert Ito I've never been to Ikea, and obviously this guy hasn't, what about Kitchen and meatballs screams "Ikea"? I thought Ikea was where you get cheaply made furniture and shelving. Why would anyone put a restaurant in a furniture store?
@@epic-tastic4440 You don't have to follow buzzfeed to know the answer at all. This was a no brainer question and he deserved to go out for implying that 20-something year olds go to Rome to look at kitchens....
I think the problem is that with most of the early Q's in Millionaire you'll purposely get a "joke" answer and he sadly thought that D was the joke answer here. I don't blame the guy, I would've probably used a lifeline here, this isn't a centuries-old idiom that you've seen/heard all your life.
I didnt realise that tourists flock to Rome to admire kitchens. Its pretty obvious the answer is IKEA, perhaps a European would of understood that the Swedish are also associated with meatballs and not just the Italians. Even if it were 50/50 between answers C and D, the kitchen part would of been a giveaway. I guess if you had zero clue about Swedish food and furniture stores then you possibly wouldnt know but to most people this is as basic as asking, "What country is associated with pizza?" Or maybe pasta, you get the idea. The guy either needs to get out more or he got complacent with it being the first question which is often a joke question. Its admirable that people are defending him on the comment section but, it was hardly a trick question.
Fireworks, wrong: Wiki: "In Italy, meatballs (named polpette [polˈpette], sing. polpetta) are generally eaten as a main course or in a soup." The question implied the meatballs were eaten alone (i.e., as a stand-alone meal. It's is very uncommon to have meatballs as a main course in American, however that is common in Italy. YOU desperately added "spaghetti" because you can't accept the fact he provided the most appropriate answer through deductive reasoning.
Meatballs aren't famous in Rome. You won't see anybody eating it. You'd probably have to look very hard to find them. Also just because they have it in Italy doesn't mean it's a common dish. You can find meatballs in France and UK too. But hey, keep reaching. I'm sure if you try hard enough you will eventually think of a good excuse as to why someone would get this easy answer wrong without it being their fault. Lol I don't see why people can't just own up to their own lack of knowledge and common sense.
I mean it's kind of a context clues kind of question rather than generational. I don't use Buzzfeed, but "taking pictures in kitchens you don't own" doesn't really apply to any geographic location other than furniture shops.
@@purrplecolored This is a different question than the one I responded to. I don't know why, but it's weird. Having said that, I still would have gotten the answer wrong. I'm not a "taking selfies" kind of person, and I don't record multiple moments in my life every day. I think I've been inside an Ikea one time. That store never comes to mind when I need anything.
@@BrylcreemBill That's fair man, I'm not a selfies kind of person either. My point was just using context clues, you could see that the question wasn't a "location" kinda question in the sense of large cities. Ikea was the odd one out and the only furniture store. Question was worded weirdly I'll give you that, but all power to you dude.
I feel really sorry for the guy. D is usually the joke answer in the starter question, and it seemed no different here. Too bad he tried to use logic to deduce the answer...
D stopped being the joke answer when Meredith left the show, it hasn't been the guaranteed joke answer in many years. I say this as someone who watches the show daily.
You have to dumb yourself down for the first question or two. He was too cocky going on and on about how great smart people are, then he overanalyzed it and failed hard.
@@jonnil1997 ikr? That sounded to me like he had no idea what the answer was (which was proven to be the case), but still felt the need to elaborate on why his (wrong) answer was undoubtedly the correct one just to not look like he was struggling in the very first question. As in, just to keep his "smart person" façade.
kermit sewerside No, the contestant was bragging a little too much about how smart he was. The producers probably heard him off camera and decided to throw him a tough question. Lol
he actually seemed like kind of a pompous ass to be honest, "im proud to be a nerd, im proud to be smart, I graduated from medical school, nah nah nah" stfu nobody cares
Ikea is known for selling cheap furniture. I can see how he would assume it wasn't the right answer. That's like saying people snap selfies in clothes they can't afford at Walmart.
@@thakurv1 "Can't afford" infers it CANT be IKEA, as IKEA is known for being cheap. Worse, IKEA is in the joke answer spot. The whole question is a misdirection.
It's amazing how people shit on his answer as if every single other answer didn't make even less sense for those of us who didn't know that a furniture store serves meatballs.
He failed because of how the answers are usually structured in Who Wants to be a Millionaire. Usually on the first few questions you get three similar answers and then one joke answer, here he get's three similar answers and the actual answer. If they'd given the correct answer along with two other furniture stores and "Rome" as the joke answer he's have gotten this straight off, but they changed the typical Millionaire pattern for this question.
Yeah, this was definitely purposefully set up to be a trick question. Which is kind of stupid. I don't know about the American version, but the UK version of Millionaire, they purposefully go out of their way to avoid misleading people. To the point where, "there are no trick questions here, you just have to know the answer", is basically one of the catchphrases of the show. They've even given contestants second chances over questions that were deemed to be misleading in the past. Seems a bit scummy for them to have a question like this on the US version, if you ask me.
It is not about caring about what BuzzFeed says but it is about how knowledgeable you are in every kind of topic that might be asked upon you. There are many things we don't know because even Einstein did not know the exact names of the future people who will appreciate his own work in science. We tell others what we know and we learn from others what we like to know. So even if you are in an Architecture field and is being asked about a simple Accounting question, you still have to answer that if you are inside a contest like Who wants to be a Millionaire. But hey that is a million dollar(or any currency) game show, why would they just give you that large amount of money by giving you easy questions with no tricks in it? So if you are intelligible person, you can see even a trick question answered in ease.
My homie, tellin' it straight and true. Harold isn't entirely wrong. Some people don't know what buzzfeed is (satire site), but this falls into a trick question category. Not all of us will sense a trick question, though we should perceive the possibilities that it could happen on the 1st question.
it was so obvious tho..they give 3 cities and a name of a store on the 1st question...if you have ever seen the game played, even if you never heard of ikea, you should of f'n knew it wasn't one of the 3 cities...plus he knew about ikea and meatballs...it's like what they say and its true, people who are book smart, seem to always lack common sense..and that was as common as it f'n gets.
Harold Joseph Deang not everyone knows or even read buzzfeed. I bet ya 99.9% of people don't know the answer to that stupid question if you take away the multi choice answers.. that was a ridiculous question for a first question
Julius I agree, Idont know meatball, dont give a fck or even know what is buzzfeed. would pick ikea only because ive heard of "kitchen" and "ikea" related to each other, and because it was 1st question, Ikea was company producer, and other 3 options were cities. But if was asked the answer without offered options, would never know the answer.

+Inuki TV I agree, this guy watched as a kid and he studied until he had the courage to go on there and try win something, the question was stupid and he definitely should get a second chance.
Are you kidding? This question was ridiculously easy, and you dont need to have been to Ikea to get the answer. If he was as smart as he said he was, he could have easily used logic, common sense and the process of elimination. Taking selfies in Kitchens? Ok, with that, we could easily surmise that it would be bizarre for that to fit with any of the country answers. Most people know Ikea sells furniture. So the "multiple kitchens" and taking pictures in them fits perfectly into a scenario at an Ikea store. The only hard part of the qeustion, and the part meant to trip you up, would be the meatballs. For me, ive never been to Ikea, but I would safely assume that meatballs are sold there, because again. The kitchen part of the question doesn't logically fit with any of the other answers. So they obviously MUST sell meatballs in Ikea. Thing is though. he KNEW THEY DID! Which is why he failed fairly, by getting the EASIEST part of the question wrong.

They have begun selling meatballs after they opened an IKEA restaurant. It's one of the few places in Czech republic you can eat well, but it's not the cheapest choice.

It's not garbage. If you act like the smartest nob alive, then be prepared for anything. And on this show, they can ask you anything.
That's a dumb question
It was, no argument there. But come on...do most twenty year old people travel to Rome to see kitchens they can't afford?
Agreed
I never even heard of “a meatball break” at ikea
Dylan Hoffman either have I, and who can’t afford an ikea kitchen? They’re pieces of shit
You mean a dumb answer.
That's the most idiotic question I've ever seen. Lol wtf
Soobinism the first questions on this show have always been like that
mitsovios rex The first question is always easy, not extremely weird. It took a while before even understood what they asked for
Im with u on that. Who the hell woulf know this???
TheCommunistTwilight well that just made you sound a bit thick, didn't it.
To confidently arrive at the correct answer to this question, two things are required:
1. Knowledge of Ikea.
2. (Some) knowledge of what Buzzfeed is.
I've never set foot in Ikea and certainly didn't know it was a restaurant. Even if I did, I still don't know what a 'meatball break' is.
I mean, if it's literally what the words suggest, then I'm still lost as to the relevance of this with "twentysomethings".
You see? Traditionally, the first question on millionaire requires little to no intellect. And this alone would lead somebody to the "obvious answer" of Rome, since anybody 'with half a brain' knows that meatballs go hand in hand with pasta, pasta is associated with Italy, and Rome is in Italy.
Plus, I thought the whole point of Ikea was cheap furniture. So that would completely throw me as well.
As for Buzzfeed, I see it posing as a news source on faceboook from time to time but couldn't give you a single detail about it.
i came here to probably laugh at the dude, but ended up getting pissed by how dumb that question was
@@StephenKershaw1 whoah, relax there mr Kershaw, you look more american than americans
For a first question that was somewhat hard. Usually the first question is so easy, even a mildly retarded person can figure it out, because 3 of the possible answers are absurd. One could make an argument linking meatballs and Rome together like this guy did.
@@jeffjackson9679 as well as taking selfies in kitchens they cant afford? Doesnt make any sense. Just from looking at the answers, not knowing the question and considering its the first question you should know its ikea...
@@WarringFighter how does Stephen Kershaw look more stupid than this dumb American or yourself!? He has stated a fact....the question, had the egotistical numb nut read it, was so clearly Ikea....who goes to Rome to snap selfies in kitchens they can't afford?
Guy even suggested Ikea but assumed he was so smart, that it was not the answer....even though it was the odd one out....which is usually the right choice on the EASY FIRST question.
All the people pissed at the show for the question are all equally as dumb as the egotistical numpty on the show.
And I ended up getting annoyed by how much of a jackass some people can be. You.

Will Healy actually the question isn’t that dumb, it’s one of those questions where logical reasoning can get you the correct answer, sometimes it’s not knowing the answer, but using what you have to work it out.
The hint “taking selfies in kitchens you can’t afford” literally screams ikea
If you think about the question logically, three of the answers are _cities_ and one is a store. If the answer were any of the cities, that would presume that the city would have publicly accessible kitchen displays where a person _could_ take a selfie. Surely, private individuals, especially those with kitchens "fancy" enough that most people couldn't afford them, wouldn't allow "tourists" into their kitchens (or, houses in general) for the mere purpose of taking a selfie.
The only _logical_ answer is the one _store_ on the list, a place that commonly _does_ have various room displays open to the public. Same could be said of Lowes, Home Depot, etc., especially when it comes to kitchens.

houseofaction wow, you must be fun at parties. It depends on the context you percieve it in. Meatballs are italian, chefs kitchens = italian, rome = italian. I'm not saying you're wrong, but surely you see where the other side is coming from.
Omar Khan wrong Meatballs origin is china and can date back to Qin Dynasty (221 BC to 207 BC) more over swedish meatballs are by far the most popular and well known meatball on earth. you are not getting what i am saying you can not just take the word meatball and use that as a basis to answer the question you have to use both meatballs and kitchens to answer the questions since Ikea is the only answer that has something to do with both Meatballs(there swedish meatball dinner in the ikea restaurant) and kitchens(something they sell) the only logical conclusion is the answer would be Ikea. no matter how you spin it this guy is a moron
"twentysomething", "in kitchens they can't afford", and "meatball"-- all three of those together should have been the biggest giveaway that it's IKEA. Doesn't excuse from being a ridiculous question though.
well that, and even if you didnt get it from those, the fact that 3 of them are cities and then one that doesnt fit, on he 1st question its always the one that stands out...i mean hell, you dont even have to read the question to know its going to be Ikea.

googleslocik Ikea sells furniture, which you can walk around alot and snap selfies. They are also famous for their swedish meaballs they sell in their café. It's obviously talking about Ikea. You don't go to Rome to buy furniture and eat swedish meatballs do you?
Who takes a cell phone selfie in a furniture store?
twenty-somethings. were you not paying attention?
Markie, Markie, Mark. Your age is showing.
Mark Fennell People would simply upload it to social media and pretend it's their kitchen. That's how bad it's got.
Do you really get that triggered that people find buzzfeed stupid?Also you really think people who watch fox news take selfies at furniture stores?
The meatball break was the biggest clue for me.
If he wanted to go to Italy to take selfies in kitchens and eat meatballs, then he'll be pleasantly surprised he can do that in IKEA for less.
Buzzfeed should make a "Top 10 Dumbest Questions on Game Shows" and put this on Number 1.
He's not dumb though
Matt Earl i dont think you understood the comment.
Buzzfield should make a top 10 list of their worst stories / journalist fails of 2018. They have plenty of material.
@@marcusarelius Buzzfeed should make a list of ALL THEIR FAILS.
I think this question was constructed specifically to deceive someone into thinking D was a joke answer rather than the correct 1 as D has traditionally been used as a foolish joke answer in the past on the show. This coupled with the fact that all the other answers are unrelated to IKEA could make a hasty contestant, such as this 1, completely disregard IKEA and pick Rome thinking meatballs are traditionally italian hence from Rome and could sort of string together rome as a place with expensive kitchens that "nobody could afford" due to Italy in general being well known for its cuisine. Its not an impossibly difficult question but moreso a deceptively constructed question aimed at tripping someone up that tried to rush through it like this unlucky soul.
I thought there weren’t meant to be trick questions
This would be true if it wasn't for the fact that pasta and meatballs is not an Italian recipe, but Italo-American at best
@@Palikkkk you think 20somethings know that? This isn't about facts, it's about what people said on a buzzfeed quiz.
@@AceAngelTTV yes of course, I was just pointing it out
@@Anteater23 you clearly don't watch the show. The first question usually has answer D being a joke, there is a small paused for the canned laughter and they move on. I don't blame the guy, it's usually safe to assume question 1 is a,b or c. Also who can't afford IKEA furniture in their 20s? It's literally the cheapest option.. And do people really call it a TRIP to go shopping at IKEA? And who is going to IKEA for their first time in their 20s? And why would you snap a selfie in the kitchen section as a must, on your first trip, in your twenties? Usually you go to IKEA as a kid and get meatballs for the first time, and if your the type of loser that takes selfies in fake kitchens, wouldn't you of done that FOR THE FIRST TIME as maybe a teenager? The questions retarded, people are more likely to visit Rome for their first time in their 20s than IKEA, PERIOD.
This isn't "knowledge".
i must have missed the part where they said the questions were based on "knowledge"
If you want to see questions based on knowledge watch Jeopardy.
jackalota That's what I was thinking. But, apparently it is to Americans.
Eightosaurus Spelunk it's trivia mixed with common sense questions that you can reason out with process of elimination. The only knowledge required is when to guess when to ask for help and when to walk away.
The first question never is.
To be fair, you don`t go on a "trip" to Ikea. It is somewhere you "go" to for a specific purpose. A trip is a break/holiday.
Sorry, if he used common sense and process of elimination, he would have answered IKEA.
Common sense says you take selfies in kitchens in Rome? Common sense would have said "gee, this is a $500 question.. 3 answers are cities and one is a place I know has meatballs and kitchens..hmm"
Meatballs......Spaghetti.....Italy.....Rome.
I have never been to Ikea. I must live under a rock. I knew it wasn't Paris or London. Rome is in Italy but selfies there and meatballs in Rome didn't sound right. I'd have asked the audience
Unknown Unknown meatballs in Rome doesn’t sound right how fucking high are you?
@@wasp2272 blazing bro
People saying he is dumb he's actually not dumb he graduated from med school, he just over thought his answer because maybe too much pressure. 😕
literally noone says that he is dumb stfu xd
who wants to be a millennial?
@@Backsteinkuchen lol if u gave a chance to read the comments lol
He lacks critical thinking, med school is memory, he is dumb.
He literally didn't know the answer and he guessed it, then immediately said 'final answer' with zero debate. I wouldn't want him anywhere near me as a Doctor! Especially if this is how he handles pressure lol.
I would have honestly said Paris. I'm so used to D being a joke answer
Positively Brainwashed
Exactly!
This was a warm-up question dat was not meant to be taken seriously, esp whenever the word 'Buzzfeed' is included.. I got the answer right btw, becoz Ikea is indeed a place where young people starting on their own place would go to make purchases & they do have wonderful showrooms where selfies are taken & with the added plus of a Swedish meatball break with their own cafetaria or food stall there.. so dat was a no-brainer..but he unluckily used his brains way too early..
joe blogs
Rome is in Italy, and they're definitely associated with meatballs. It's an Italian staple
joe blogs Rome isn't Romania mate
Sean Gannon pardon I meant Roman. Either way you’re disregarding my point so I deleted my comments
PTSD flashbacks of nam whenever he drives by an ikea now
A BuzzFeed question? Jesus fucking Christ.
Citing a Buzzfeed article makes one lose ALL credibility.
+LuneyTune72 You don't need to know what buzzfeed is to figure this question out. Kitchens and meatballs is a dead giveaway that it is ikea
+Robert Ito I've never been to Ikea, and obviously this guy hasn't, what about Kitchen and meatballs screams "Ikea"? I thought Ikea was where you get cheaply made furniture and shelving. Why would anyone put a restaurant in a furniture store?
please don't use THE LORD'S name like that
Job De La Cruz Aureoles JESUS FUCKING CHRIST.
He definitely over-analyzed that one.
He was being a pedant and he deserved to lose
To be fair, it was a buttfeed question. No one with any sense would follow that garbage so how would he know? ^w^;
To be fair, he was asked an idiotic question.
@@epic-tastic4440 You don't have to follow buzzfeed to know the answer at all. This was a no brainer question and he deserved to go out for implying that 20-something year olds go to Rome to look at kitchens....
Buzzfeed later that evening -
“Man gets THIS as his first question on quiz show (You won’t believe his answer!)”
This is a classic case of book smart and being socially isolated.
It's not at all. I have literally never heard of anyone taking selfies in Ikea lol.
My own city is hundreds of miles away from any IKEA. I wouldn't have known either.
I think the problem is that with most of the early Q's in Millionaire you'll purposely get a "joke" answer and he sadly thought that D was the joke answer here. I don't blame the guy, I would've probably used a lifeline here, this isn't a centuries-old idiom that you've seen/heard all your life.
BAI GAMING really, meatballs in Rome? Nothing to do with meatballs. Only in America you Have meatballs in spaghetti😂
If i used all my lifeline, i still wouldn't think it would be IKEA. Would have to walk away. 😁
I didnt realise that tourists flock to Rome to admire kitchens. Its pretty obvious the answer is IKEA, perhaps a European would of understood that the Swedish are also associated with meatballs and not just the Italians. Even if it were 50/50 between answers C and D, the kitchen part would of been a giveaway. I guess if you had zero clue about Swedish food and furniture stores then you possibly wouldnt know but to most people this is as basic as asking, "What country is associated with pizza?" Or maybe pasta, you get the idea. The guy either needs to get out more or he got complacent with it being the first question which is often a joke question. Its admirable that people are defending him on the comment section but, it was hardly a trick question.
Fireworks, wrong: Wiki: "In Italy, meatballs (named polpette [polˈpette], sing. polpetta) are generally eaten as a main course or in a soup." The question implied the meatballs were eaten alone (i.e., as a stand-alone meal. It's is very uncommon to have meatballs as a main course in American, however that is common in Italy. YOU desperately added "spaghetti" because you can't accept the fact he provided the most appropriate answer through deductive reasoning.
Meatballs aren't famous in Rome. You won't see anybody eating it. You'd probably have to look very hard to find them. Also just because they have it in Italy doesn't mean it's a common dish. You can find meatballs in France and UK too. But hey, keep reaching. I'm sure if you try hard enough you will eventually think of a good excuse as to why someone would get this easy answer wrong without it being their fault. Lol I don't see why people can't just own up to their own lack of knowledge and common sense.
That was just a stupid question. Don't blame the guy whatsoever.
He wouldn't have gotten that question if he didn't start out so cocky. They ambushed him.
you're just as dumb as him.
steve b
What does that even mean? Rome was the logical answer.
Meatballs = Italian
Rome = Italian
Meatballs = Rome
Anonymous AJ It's only the logical answer if you ignore the part about kitchens.
Do cities not have kitchens all of a sudden???
Wtf was that question tho, SMFH 🤦🏽♂️
Half way through IKEA they have a food court where there main dish is meat balls and a lot of people take pictures of the dream kitchens in there
The first question was definitely a generational thing. I've never heard of any of that and could easily live the rest of my life not knowing it.
I mean it's kind of a context clues kind of question rather than generational. I don't use Buzzfeed, but "taking pictures in kitchens you don't own" doesn't really apply to any geographic location other than furniture shops.
You've never heard of kitchens or meatballs?
@@purrplecolored This is a different question than the one I responded to. I don't know why, but it's weird. Having said that, I still would have gotten the answer wrong. I'm not a "taking selfies" kind of person, and I don't record multiple moments in my life every day. I think I've been inside an Ikea one time. That store never comes to mind when I need anything.
@@extremelynormalperson Nope! What's Buzzfeed?
@@BrylcreemBill That's fair man, I'm not a selfies kind of person either. My point was just using context clues, you could see that the question wasn't a "location" kinda question in the sense of large cities. Ikea was the odd one out and the only furniture store. Question was worded weirdly I'll give you that, but all power to you dude.
I'm glad everyone in the comment section saying how stupid this question was because I said Rome as well
Same...
They sell kitchens in ikea, I thought it was logic :/
Because people go to Rome to take pictures in random kitchens
Dwin nah your stupid too
Dwin it was so easyy tho haha
When Buzzfeed is mentioned in a question on a million dollar general knowledge game show..
Merica!
@@jamiemidge4983 Only in.
Then stupid people lose their minds and become unable to answer the easiest questions.
I feel really sorry for the guy. D is usually the joke answer in the starter question, and it seemed no different here. Too bad he tried to use logic to deduce the answer...
D stopped being the joke answer when Meredith left the show, it hasn't been the guaranteed joke answer in many years. I say this as someone who watches the show daily.
You have to dumb yourself down for the first question or two. He was too cocky going on and on about how great smart people are, then he overanalyzed it and failed hard.
Taking selfies in kitchens you can't afford hhhhmmm. Stupid answer I reckon
What kinda logic did he use lol? The logic where people travel to rome to take pictures in kitchens and eat meatballs?
@@jonnil1997 ikr? That sounded to me like he had no idea what the answer was (which was proven to be the case), but still felt the need to elaborate on why his (wrong) answer was undoubtedly the correct one just to not look like he was struggling in the very first question. As in, just to keep his "smart person" façade.
What a meatball. Sometimes thinking you're smart dumbs you down.
since all the comments are focusing on how sucky the question was can we take a second to appreciate how wholesome and pure the contestant seemed
Well this escalated quickly...
kermit sewerside No, the contestant was bragging a little too much about how smart he was. The producers probably heard him off camera and decided to throw him a tough question. Lol
not really a "tough" questions as much as it is a nonsense question.
Seemed the opposite to me..
he actually seemed like kind of a pompous ass to be honest, "im proud to be a nerd, im proud to be smart, I graduated from medical school, nah nah nah" stfu nobody cares
Ikea is known for selling cheap furniture. I can see how he would assume it wasn't the right answer. That's like saying people snap selfies in clothes they can't afford at Walmart.
Good answer
@@annoyedbykes5741 exactly. The complaints against this question are ridiculous
Ikea is known for being Swedish. Meatballs (Kotbullar) are one the most Swedish things I know.
@@thakurv1 "Can't afford" infers it CANT be IKEA, as IKEA is known for being cheap. Worse, IKEA is in the joke answer spot. The whole question is a misdirection.
I mean, the question is utterly stupid, but so was his answer. Why would they mention kitchens and Meatballs for Rome?
YourPalHDee What? You know meatballs are associated with Italy, right? And in Rome every other place is an eating place, right?
slapmyfunkybass and kitchens?
YourPalHDee Well if there’s eating places, there’s going to be kitchens!
Raas Putin No, that would be ridiculous. I cook it in a vat of aborted fetuses.
It's amazing how people shit on his answer as if every single other answer didn't make even less sense for those of us who didn't know that a furniture store serves meatballs.
I love how quickly the camera man swoops in and gets in his face as if to say "Get a load of this dumazz".
He failed because of how the answers are usually structured in Who Wants to be a Millionaire. Usually on the first few questions you get three similar answers and then one joke answer, here he get's three similar answers and the actual answer. If they'd given the correct answer along with two other furniture stores and "Rome" as the joke answer he's have gotten this straight off, but they changed the typical Millionaire pattern for this question.
Ah, that makes sense. Thanks!
This guy gets it
Yeah, this was definitely purposefully set up to be a trick question. Which is kind of stupid. I don't know about the American version, but the UK version of Millionaire, they purposefully go out of their way to avoid misleading people. To the point where, "there are no trick questions here, you just have to know the answer", is basically one of the catchphrases of the show. They've even given contestants second chances over questions that were deemed to be misleading in the past. Seems a bit scummy for them to have a question like this on the US version, if you ask me.
I still don't get the question, and who the fk cares what BuzzFeed says?!?
It is not about caring about what BuzzFeed says but it is about how knowledgeable you are in every kind of topic that might be asked upon you. There are many things we don't know because even Einstein did not know the exact names of the future people who will appreciate his own work in science. We tell others what we know and we learn from others what we like to know. So even if you are in an Architecture field and is being asked about a simple Accounting question, you still have to answer that if you are inside a contest like Who wants to be a Millionaire. But hey that is a million dollar(or any currency) game show, why would they just give you that large amount of money by giving you easy questions with no tricks in it? So if you are intelligible person, you can see even a trick question answered in ease.
My homie, tellin' it straight and true. Harold isn't entirely wrong. Some people don't know what buzzfeed is (satire site), but this falls into a trick question category. Not all of us will sense a trick question, though we should perceive the possibilities that it could happen on the 1st question.
it was so obvious tho..they give 3 cities and a name of a store on the 1st question...if you have ever seen the game played, even if you never heard of ikea, you should of f'n knew it wasn't one of the 3 cities...plus he knew about ikea and meatballs...it's like what they say and its true, people who are book smart, seem to always lack common sense..and that was as common as it f'n gets.
Harold Joseph Deang not everyone knows or even read buzzfeed. I bet ya 99.9% of people don't know the answer to that stupid question if you take away the multi choice answers.. that was a ridiculous question for a first question
Julius I agree, Idont know meatball, dont give a fck or even know what is buzzfeed. would pick ikea only because ive heard of "kitchen" and "ikea" related to each other, and because it was 1st question, Ikea was company producer, and other 3 options were cities. But if was asked the answer without offered options, would never know the answer.
Being smart and being educated and well informed are two different things
What are you saying he's not smart because he's never seen that buzz feed article? He graduated from med school you don't do that without being very smart and much smarter than you.
The fuck bro. Do you imply that well informed people read BuzzFeed? BuzzFeed is shit and you are shittier :)
that was 3 things
Nihal Muniah I don’t read buzz feed but that question is so obvious. Of course it’s ikea.
you mean three different things you douche!
Reminds me of The Honeymooners episode where Ralph went on a quiz show to identify popular songs. This was even funnier.
