IWS #235: Stupid Goes to School

The Rules

The rules are the same as previous FOFC “I’m With Stupid" Contests, as set forth by the game's, and indeed our very community's, most cherished and beloved progenitors and inspirational leaders, and also QuikSand. May we never lose our commitment to reverently speak their names and heartily toast their greatness (as well as toasting QuikSand).

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 and total consciousness on your deathbed, so the need to cheat shouldn't be an issue.

All determinations of "matches" and anything else requiring even the most trivial degree of 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. I summarily reject any suggestion of this structure as evidence of any personal character flaw.

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 is one of the classic blunders?", and you answer, "never get involved in a land war in Asia", along with 9 other people, you each score 10 points, even though the correct answer is "Never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line!" You will also be forever scorned for suggesting that we'll never survive - you're only saying that because no one ever has.

Spoiler



The Questions
With Stupid's kids again starting school stupid thinks back to when Stupid went to school.

1. Classes always seemed so long, even though they were less than an hour. How long were Stupid's classes?

2. Stupid was no brain (obviously) but Stupid always did enjoy which academic class?

3. While it wasn't Stupid's best or favorite class, for which class did a great teacher help Stupid learn the most?

4. Of course there was that one class. The one Stupid hated. Which one was it?

5. Looking back on it, Stupid can't believe that what was the popular fashion?

6. Stupid can't look back without thinking of Stupid's first love. What was the first love's best quality?

PM me responses with 'IWS #235' (or something similar) in the title. Contest will run until Monday, 10/28 at 3 PM Eastern.
