Did I miss it or did nobody post anything about the meaning of "The Cake is a Lie"? Anyway, the source is the video game Portal. I've never played it, but it was popular with my then-teen age sons about a decade or so ago. Portal also possibly had the best end song of any video game, "Still Alive" by Jonathon Coulton.
I think I noticed a little smile on Justin's face when he seemed to rush to the category. I suspect he was aware of the reference.
I alluded to it in my post on page two of this thread.
As a side note, if you've not played Portal or Portal 2, they are terrific games. No "shoot-em-up," no combat, lots of puzzle solving. And in Portal 2, Steven Merchant and J.K. Simmons provide outstanding voice-over performances as game characters. The games are very clever and the dialog can be quite funny.
I'm not the defending Jeopardy! champion. But I have played one on TV.

So you did. That's what happens when I show up late to the party.
