    EDIT: WHOOPS! Sorry, I didn’t know to only answer two. Here are my two.
    I don’t know a lot of these, although there are some I knew but have forgotten. Here are the answers my brain still recalls. 4. What is a rickroll? A: Someone makes you watch a clip from the song “Never Gonna Give You Up.” 14. What's a Tribble? A: Star Trek animal, “born pregnant.”

    12) if you mean Billy Batson, that word would be SHAZAM.
    13) Doc Savage and Superman both have a fortress of solitude. Doc Savage predates Superman by roughly 5 years.
