IWS #204: Thanksgiving
THANKSGIVING!
The rules are the same as previous FOFC "Im With Stupid" Contests, as set forth by the games most widely beloved and solemnly revered founding fathers. 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 product of your individual question scores. Yes, that word "product" means that they will be multiplied together, not added. Highest score wins. Collaboration of any kind is strictly forbidden. No posting your answers to this board, nor sharing them by e-mail or in any other way with other potential contestants. Just don't be an asshat, and this should end well. All determinations of "matches" and anything else requiring judgment fall to that of the sole administrator of this round of the game. You can reduce the need for doubt and judgment by properly spelling your submissions, being clear, and that sort of thing. The administrator's decisions are final and utterly inarguable, no exceptions. Any references that are unclear to you, due to language or geography, should be understood to be authored from the perspective of an English-speaking American. However, your answers do not necessarily have to be correct in order to score points. If I ask "Whats the best celebrity urban legend?" and you join 4 other misguided souls in answering "Rod Stewart's stomach pump" then you get your 5 points even if... well, to be honest, you might actually be right about that one, just this once. Hall of Heroes:
Spoiler
The Questions Stupid is excited for Thanksgiving! 1 - Stupid loves football. He is excited for the three NFL games that will be played on Thanksgiving day: Texans @ Lions, Redskins @ Cowboys, and Patriots @ Jets. Stupid wonders: What is the highest point total that a single NFL team will put up on Thanksgiving day this year? 2 - Name a fruit or vegetable associated with Thanksgiving. 3 - Stupid's mom is an excellent chef, and will be doing all the cooking for Thanksgiving dinner, but Stupid agrees to do the grocery shopping. How much money does Stupid spend per person? 4 - Stupid is growing up -- it's his first time hosting the family for Thanksgiving dinner rather than going back to mom's house! How old is Stupid? 5 - How many people are at the average Thanksgiving dinner? 6 - Stupid's family loves dessert! How many different flavors of pie are there? Answers due via PM to me by Thursday at 11:59pm EST (subject to extension or shortening as I wish).

I'm optimistic that the good questions will yield a nice spread of responses, all are well thought out.
