I'm With Stupid - IWS #243 - Results
Well, what I HATE is questions that are too easy. I HATE it when there's one obvious answer. Honestly, there's not a lot to HATE about this game (except intolerable delays, which I HATE) but I'm going with the theme here.
26 entries, not bad. Let's have a look. I’m a little short on time, so I’ll just paste my results column as a shortcut, apologies in advance that will extend the text of this post a bit. 1. Name a song that includes the word, or concept, of HATE as a theme All over the map here… I Hate Everything About You I Hate Everything About You I Hate Everything About You I Hate Everything About You I Hate Everything About You I Hate Everything About You I Hate Everything About You I Hate Myself For Loving You She Hates Me She Hates Me She Hates Me I Hate Myself For Loving You I Hate Myself For Loving You I Hate Rock n Roll I Hate You I Love You I F Hate You One More Minute You're So Vain You Oughtta Know Thin Line Who Taught You How To Hate? I Hate U F*ck You Everything About You Closer Shake It Off = = = = = 2. Name a flavor of ice cream than many people actually HATE pistachio pistachio pistachio pistachio vanilla vanilla vanilla pistachio vanilla vanilla vanilla pistachio bubblegum bubblegum bubblegum Neapolitan Neapolitan mint choc chip mint choc chip peanut butter rum raisin licorice mint strawberry rocky road butter pecan Vanilla solid as the standard “name an ice cream flavor” response, ignoring the actual question content. Pistachio, I guess, as the more thoughtful correct answer. And that’s my favorite flavor, naturally. = = = = = 3. Name an actor or actress that people correctly HATE Mel Gibson Mel Gibson Mel Gibson Mel Gibson Mel Gibson Mel Gibson Mel Gibson Mel Gibson Mel Gibson Gwyneth Paltrow Shia LeBoeuf Gwyneth Paltrow Shia LeBoeuf Gwyneth Paltrow Shia LeBoeuf Nicolas Cage Nicolas Cage Ben Affleck Leonardo DiCaprio Tom Cruise Lena Dunham Sean Penn Amy Schumer Kim Kardashian Anne Hathaway Johnny Depp = = = = = 4.

I didn’t even see that coming, shame on me. But the Beliebers made it interesting, and Kanye was strong. Three-way eliminator, kinda. Who the hell HATES Michael McDonald? = = = = = = 5. Name a type of animal that people correctly HATE cat cat cat cat cat cat snake snake snake snake snake rat rat rat rat raccoon roach roach raccoon spider spider skunk skunk mosquitoes dog pit bull meh = = = = = = 6. Name a non-President person whom people HATED in the year 1999 So happy with this question. A total trainwreck, but there was a right answer that emerged from the wreckage… Hillary Clinton Hillary Clinton Hillary Clinton Hillary Clinton Saddam Hussein Saddam Hussein Saddam Hussein Prince Timothy McVeigh Monica Lewinsky Columbine shooters Columbine shooters Monica Lewinsky Timothy McVeigh OJ Simpson OJ Simpson Prince Barry Bonds Linda Tripp George Lucas Ken Starr Newt Gingrich Puff Daddy Jar Jar Binks Jack Kevorkian Rush Limbaugh Prince…I see what you did there.

Yeah, my Puff Daddy answer was spectacularly awful. Other than that, I am satisfied with my non-winning effort.

With question #6, I wonder how different the answers might look if I had given you that list as a set of possibles to choose from. As I was typing in answers, I multiple times said "ohhhhh, that's good..." to someone that wouldn't have occurred to me. Maybe George Lucas would win?

Good one. Lots of swings and misses there.
Pistachio is a great flavor. I stand by my Jar Jar answer. |

Didn't even think of Hillary. Amazed to have won! I will try to turn around quickly so we do not lose steam.

Me and my fur-babies say "f you, cat haters".
But other than that happy enough, I think 4th is the best i've done. Thought I was doing so well with question 1, showing off my limited popular music knowledge and going for that Taylor Swift "Haters gonna hate" pish, though. |

D'oh! 3rd from the bottom, again.
Right, hating Leo was a 90s thing. And apparently I'm the only mosquito hater. If this wasn't ran by QS, I would have gone with a different musical performer than Billy Joel.

Who the hell hates Micheal Mcdonald you say?
I don't care. Anything. I would rather... I would rather watch "Beautician and the Beast". I would rather listen to Fran Drescher for eight hours than have to listen to Michael McDonald. Nothing against him, but if I hear "Yah Mo B There" one more time, I'm going to "Yah Mo" burn this place to the ground. |
