IWS #210 - Tragedy Strikes

TRO · 05-20-2013, 11:14 AM

IWS Rules

The rules are the same as previous FOFC "I’m With Stupid" Contests, as set forth by the game’s benevolent and forgiving 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 "Who makes the best BBQ?" and you join 4 other misguided souls in answering "Carolina" then you get your 5 points even if the technically correct answer is "Kansas City."

Please PM all responses to TRO and put IWS 210 in the title. I plan on closing this next Wednesday, May 29th- probably around 1pm CST.

IWS #210 - Tragedy Strikes

1. Stupid hurt himself at home, what was Stupid doing when he got hurt?

2. Stupid has to go to the Emergency Room, how much time goes by from the time of his injury until he is seen by a doctor?

3. Stupid wants to know where his doctor earned his degree from. Where does Stupid hope the doctor went to medical school?

4. Unfortunately, the doctor didn't attend such school. Doctor went to this really bad medical school instead.

5. Stupid is finally released from the hospital and is now starting to see the medical bills roll in. What kind of insurance does Stupid have?

6. While going to a rehab appointment, Stupid is involved is a massive car accident. What kind of car was Stupid driving?

Again, please PM all responses to TRO and put IWS 210 in the title. I plan on closing this next Wednesday, May 29th- probably around 1pm CST.

Excellent set of questions. Will have to think on them.

How long would you say you waited for? What kind of insurance do you have?

Not being from the US question 5 is super impossible, I'm like I don't even know where to begin.

Make mine rare sent.

Brutally difficult. There is only one question where I'm expecting to score points. If you told me my score was 1, I would believe it.

I'm from the US and question 5 is still super impossible.
