IWS #221 - Father's Day

The Rules

The rules are the same as previous FOFC “I’m With Stupid" Contests, as set forth by whoever created the game, and probably isn't even on the forum any more.

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. For the mathematically challenged, product means they are 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. There are no prizes other than everlasting glory, so the need to cheat shouldn't be an issue.

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 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 "What drummer do you want on your $15 rock band?" and you answer "Keith Moon" along with 13 other people, you each will be awarded 14 points -- even though the correct answer is "Oh dear God not another one of these"

We've learned so much about Stupid over the years, but this week it's time for a nod to the man who taught him everything he knows (and doesn't know) - his father.

1. Stupid was looking back on all the memories he's shared with his dad in anticipation of Father's Day. When he reminisces over his childhood, Stupid doesn't have much to complain about. In fact, when asked about his upbringing, which beloved TV dad does Stupid compare his own father to?

2. Stupid's mom did most of the cooking growing up, but like many dads, Stupid, Sr. fancied himself quite the master of the grill. What was his go-to recipe there?

3. Stupid will never forget the time his dad tried to give him "the talk." It was incredibly awkward, but he knows Stupid Sr. meant well. How old was Stupid when that happened?

4. Stupid's dad has never been too big into showing emotion, so the one time Stupid saw him cry was hard to forget. What was the occasion?

5. One thing Stupid definitely learned from his dad was how to be handy around the house. Stupid might have spent the most father-son bonding time helping his dad with which home improvement project?

6. This Father's Day, Stupid really wants to go the extra mile to show his dad how much he cares. How much money is Stupid going to spend on his Father's Day gift?

Please PM your answers to me with "IWS #221" in the title. Submissions are due by 8:00 PM Eastern Time on Monday June 16th.

Thinking he might be waiting for responses on some entries. I had a request for a more specific answer on one of the questions.
