    The city of Los Angeles boasts a larger Armenian population than anywhere else in the United States,

    scarves and are offering full refunds for anyone who bought the scarves.

    Uma Devi Khatri was a playback singer in the 40s but due to the rise of new voices of the
    Mangeshkar sisters, she lost work and gained weight.
    She later ventured into acting. She was named X by Dilip Kumar; when filming a scene, he tripped
    over her due to her relatively larger physique, and the name stuck. Soon, industry type-casting and
    existing social mores ensured that the name became synonymous with a caricaturish figure who
    embraced crude jokes about dark skin and size made at her expense.
    Often regarded as India’s first female comedian, X would also remind you of a popular childhood
    character.
    What is X or how do we know her?

    BRZRKR is a comic book series created by X and Matt Kindt, with artwork by Ron Garney. The story
    follows an immortal warrior known as B, who has been alive for 80,000 years.
    The idea for BRZRKR originated from X' fascination with a character who could inflict extreme violence
    but was also cursed with immortality. It contains themes of violence and compassion, which are also
    present in many of X's films.
    The Book of Elsewhere, is a spinoff novel delves into existential questions about mortality, identity, and
    the human condition, echoing X' own musings on life and death.

    The NYC Subway used to have a fixed price token to ride before the MetroCard was introduced in
    1993 (and OMNY afterwards, in 2019), where one dropped the token into a slot to unlock the turnstile.
    What problem arising from the way these tokens were carried around led the MTA to switch from a Y-

    Published in April 2025, X by Aditi Krishnakumar is a murder mystery set in 1900s Tamil Nadu.
    It follows 14-year-old Aru, a young widow navigating societal stigma and personal loss, who finds hope
    through education and a new role as a companion in a landlord's household—only to uncover
    dangerous secrets that put her life at risk.
    The title is inspired from a rare flora’s contrasting ability to bloom in muddy waters and is used an
    offering to gods and goddesses. Unrelated but it famously shares the name with a pop-cultural
    phenomenon which reeks of privileges & murder mystery.
    What is X?

    The actual recipe of this dye is a secret well guarded by the city’s plumbers' union. The only thing
    publicly known is that- it is an oil-based environment friendly dye.
    The story goes - This particular dye was first used to locate the source of leaks in the sewage system
    along the river as part of a development project, and when some of those color stains were seen on a
    plumber’s coveralls.
    The union’s business manager implored Mayor Richard J. Daley to use the dye to turn the river green

    The X statues, known as the Winged Figures of the Republic, are iconic
    sculptures located at the entrance of an engineering marvel.
    Created by sculptor Oskar J.W. Hansen, these statues symbolize strength and
    represent the spirit of innovation behind the structure's construction. Each
    figure stands about 30 feet tall and is designed to embody the greatness of
    human achievement, reflecting Hansen's belief that X is one of the greatest
    man-made structures in history.

     "For decades, Chili's has inserted itself in culture – introducing the now-famous Baby Back Ribs jingle,
     and most recently unleashing Triple Dipper cheese pulls on TikTok. But we've also seen the brand
     come to life on screen through the years, and that includes being tied to ________ (8) despite never
     having a location there. That changes this year with our newest restaurant," Chili's Chief Marketing
     Officer George Felix said.
     This comes nearly 20 years after the famous episode aired where employees of a fictional company
     celebrated their informal annual awards at this restaurant. Which location?
     Brinker International, Inc. owns Chili's, Maggiano's Little Italy and other restaurant brands.
     What is it’s ticker symbol?

     In rural Thailand, Hae Nang Kew is a traditional rainmaking ceremony that typically involves parading a
     cat in a cage through the village, with the belief that the cries of a feline will appease the rain gods
     and bring much-needed precipitation.
     Due to several months of limited rainfall last year, the ceremony was held, but out of concern for
     animal welfare, plush toys representing a fictional “cat-like” creature were used instead of a real cat.
     Which character?
