IWS #79

Ladies and gentlemen, behold. We will once again be offering a “themed” edition of the “I’m With Stupid” game, but this time we will try, really try, to avoid embarrassing those who are hopelessly without cultural refinement. (A groan emerges from the audience) Instead, we will focus on yet another topic that most everyone should find at least conceptually approachable … travel.


The Questions

1. Name an airline

2. Name an island

3. Name something people purchase during vacations as a souvenir

4. Name a food that you'd like to eat while visiting its "native" country

5. Name a non-European, non-English speaking country you'd like to visit

6. What is the most exotic country that you have ever visited?



*********************************************

The Rules

The rules are the same as previous FOFC “I’m With Stupid" Contests, as set forth by the game’s beloved 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. 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.

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. My decisions are final and inarguable.

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 "name a color of the rainbow," and you and four other people responded "black" - you get five points, period, even if it is not technically a correct answer to the question.

PM your answers to me, QuikSand. Deadline is Thursday night – I’ll compile either then or Friday morning.

Feel good about the virst three, decent about #4, and very uncertain about the final two...

Shoot! I just realized I submitted something stupid in one of the questions. My bookmaker betting numbers just took a hit from 1-40 to 1-400 to see me win. I'll try to do my best as spoiler for others then...

Sending in a new set of answers isn't against any rule, is it?

Otherwise I would have probably edited most of my previous 70 entries and wouldn't have won the two IWSs I did win.
