Another Holiday season has come and gone. How did you do?


1. Name the best Christmas gift you ever received.

Bicycle - 9
Video Game Console or Computer Game - 8
Red Ryder BB Gun - 2
Socks - 1
Fleece Pullover - 1
Star Wars Millenium Falcon - 1
Money - 1
Car -1

I combined a few answers into the Video Game Console or Computer Game but it ultimately didn't matter as to the winner. To win, you had to answer Bike.

2. As a child, what time did you get out of bed on Christmas morning?

6 am - 16
7 am - 6
4 am - 1
5 am - 1

I was expecting a split between 6 and 7, but ya'll are some early-gettin-up-mutha-fuckas.

3. What is your favorite Christmas Carol?

Jingle Bells - 13
Silent Night - 3
Joy to the World - 2
deck the Halls - 2
We Wish you a Merry Christmas - 1
Rudolph - 1
Little Drummer Boy - 1
Carol of the Bells - 1

By the way, Jingle Bells is a terrible song. Good enough for Stupid, though.


4. At what age is Christmas the most special to someone?

6 years - 8
10 years - 4
7 years - 4
5 years - 4
8 years - 2
4 years - 2

Pretty good spread here.


5. Name the character from a Christmas movie or TV special you'd most like to have a beer with.

The Grinch - 6
Clark Griswold - 4
Santa - 4
Frosty the Snowman - 2
Ralphie - 2
Scrooge - 1
Bad Santa - 1
Ghost of Christmas Future - 1
Father from Christmas Story - 1

I liked the way this one turned out. A handful of obvious answers to choose from, but no runaway. And I had to laugh at the Ghost of Christmas Future. Kind of morbid, isn't it?

6. What is the perfect height for a Christmas tree?

7 feet - 12
6 feet - 6
8 feet - 5
6.5 feet - 1

I figured the winner would be 6 or 8. Instead it came in right in between. That makes some sense, I suppose.

And now, for the standings (drum-roll please)...

Likewise... anyone who lives in the North definately didn't answer bicycle. If you did receive a bicycle for Christmas the 2 feet of snow made it difficult to ride the damn thing.

Frosty can keep your beer cold. How can you argue with that logic? Also, I thought Silent Night would be more popular :(

I may give the next IWS a shot, since I haven't played in a long while.
