IWS #115 - Back to School

ThunderingHERD · 08-07-2005, 09:28 PM

The Rules

The rules are the same as previous FOFC “I’m With Stupid" Contests, as set forth by some obsolete fogies.

The object of this contest is to answer the questions posted, and to provide the most common answer among those submitted. For each question, your score will be equal to the number of people who submitted that response. Your score for the contest will be the sum of your individual question scores. Highest score wins.

No collaborating in any way. No posting your answers to this board, nor sharing them by e-mail or in any other way with other potential contestants. I am watching. Please me more appropriately dressed the next time you view this thread.

All determinations of "matches" and anything else requiring judgment fall to that of the sole administrator of this round of the game, me. You can reduce the need for doubt and judgment by properly spelling your submissions, being clear, and that sort of thing. My decisions are final and inarguable.

Any references that are unclear to you, due to language, geography, or your own stupidity should be understood to be authored from the perspective of an un-retarded English-speaking American. However...

Your answers do not necessarily have to be correct in order to score points. If I ask "What is 3+3," and you and four other people responded "six" - you each get five points, period, even if it is not technically a correct answer to the question. Wait... where's my calculator?

PM your answers to me, ThunderingHERD. The deadline is 11:59 p.m. EST, Friday, August 12 – Answers will be compiled and posted at some point after that.

I reserve the right to inform your employer and/or spouse of any or all of your responses.

The questions:

1. What was your SAT score?

2. What was your major in college?

3. What was you least favorite subject?

4. When you went out for a night of serious drinking, how many beers/drinks did that entail?

5. What movie not starring Tom Cruise did you watch a million times with your friends?

6. Other than Guns N Roses (who music experts and historians agree were vastly overrated), who was the coolest band when you were in school?

OMFG. This is a hard one.

pennywisesb · 08-08-2005, 12:09 PM

sent. I second that this is really hard.

timmae · 08-08-2005, 12:32 PM

which is hy I took approximately 60 seconds to complete it... I'll either be really stupid or really smart. Either way I am not normal...

fantastic flying froggies · 08-08-2005, 02:51 PM

snet!

(and it was indeed hard, so much so I actually submitted 'real' answers, not stupid ones. We'll see how that goes...probably not that well...

)

gstelmack · 08-08-2005, 03:27 PM

The interesting bit will be the range of ages and backgrounds on this board, where we've got people going to college through probaby 4 or 5 different pop culture eras. 5 & 6 in particular should generate a nice range of answers...

For the first time in like 20 IWS entries, I submitted answers that don't necessarily reflect my POV, and hope I picked with the general consensus.

Interesting to see how we will do.

Cringer · 08-08-2005, 04:00 PM

I haven't done one of these for a long time.

I guessed at answers. The band one is hard, because I was trying to think about the different age groups and how people would answer that. It could be damn near anything...

MIJB#19 · 08-09-2005, 03:35 PM

Google is my friend.

Even more if I manage to not end up in the bottom half of this thing.

bump?

ThunderingHERD · 08-12-2005, 07:28 PM

Last chance bump.

Results will be tabulated and posted when I get back from the bar.

If MIJB wins in a landslide, at least we'll know why.

terpkristin · 08-12-2005, 07:47 PM

I'm going to try this time--but my answers are going to have to reflect answers I think will work, not the truth (given that I'm a complete oddball and then some).

ThunderingHERD · 08-13-2005, 02:24 PM
