IWS #210 - Tragedy Strikes - Results

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

Stay out of the kitchen stupid, you don't play well with fire or sharp things.

Cooking - 6
Changing a Light Bulb - 2
On a Ladder - 2
Slipped in Bathtub/Shower - 2
Climbing the Stairs - 2
Standing on back of toilet (Back to the Future style)
Exercising
Driving
Fixing Something
Using a Knife
Masturbating

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?

Emergency rooms certainly get a bad rap for how long you have to wait for treatment, but 24 hours? Ouch!

1 Hour - 9
2 Hours - 4
3 Hours - 2
4 Hours - 2
5 Hours
24 Hours
30 Minutes

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

Only 3 answers here and 2 of them show up as places on the next list as well.

Harvard - 13
Johns Hopkins - 5
Stanford - 2

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

Only 1 answer with multiple votes here and 2 of the answers also appeared on the best school list.

University of Phoenix - 4
Arizona State
Community College
DeVry
Eastern Michigan
Florida State
Harvard
Kansas
Mercer (GA)
Ohio State
Online
Ross University
Seton Hall
Stanford
University of Mexico
UNLV
Wright State

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?

I thought None would take this one or maybe even a welfare program like Medicare, but Stupid likes him some BC/BS.

Blue Cross / Blue Shield - 9
None- 5
All-State
Anthem
Medicare
Obamacare
Short Term Medical
United Healthcare

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

I flubbed this one by not being specific enough with the question, with about a 1/3 of the answers only giving a Make and not a model. And since all of the answers that included a model gave two different models (Civic/Accord, Camry/Prius and Mustang/Focus), I didn't think it made sense to combine everything down to just the make.

Honda Accord - 4
Toyota - 3
Toyota Camry - 3
Ford - 2
Ford Mustang - 2
Honda Civic - 2
Ford Focus
Honda
Toyota Prius
VW Jetta

britrock88 · 05-29-2013, 04:53 PM

Wow. A score of 16 in a 20-entry IWS.

cuervo72 · 05-29-2013, 05:40 PM

Good thing I didn't enter. I'd have assumed stupid drove a Dodge Stratus.

Pyser · 05-29-2013, 05:42 PM

wow that was hard. great questions

Coffee Warlord · 05-29-2013, 05:45 PM

University of Phoenix fucked me.

kcchief19 · 05-29-2013, 06:46 PM

Really did stub my toe. Violated a key IWS rule, being too specific. I was the knife guy, which is part of cooking. Should have been more generic.

I started to say Stanford on the medical school, then remember IWS has an East Coast bias. Changed to Johns Hopkins, but forgot about Harvard. Doh! I thought about Blue Cross/Blue Shield but decided to go market share ... United Healthcare is the largest medical insurance company in the country -- and gets one lousy vote?

By that time, I was lost so I decided to take a shot at Kansas.

But IWS driving a Honda? No way. Stupid drives a Ford Focus.

MrBug708 · 05-29-2013, 06:48 PM

Im terrible...haha

nol · 05-29-2013, 07:06 PM

I saw the answers to the first question and figured I was toast, so I just scrolled to the bottom. For that kind of score to finish 2nd definitely shows how tough and divisive the questions were. I honestly didn't expect many people to go with U. of Phoenix, but it was too funny imagining a doctor's office with a diploma from there hanging on the wall, so I had to go with it.

Young Drachma · 05-29-2013, 07:38 PM

Oh stupid. I didn't even try this time.

korme · 05-30-2013, 12:32 AM

Shots fired!

Izulde · 05-30-2013, 02:09 AM

Funnily enough, one of the regents wants to put a medical school in UNLV:

Regent's idea for Las Vegas-based medical school has merit and drawbacks, observers say - Las Vegas Sun News

I don't think it'll ever happen, but I'd love to see one here. It'd help considerably with the terrible quality of healthcare in this city.

(And no, that wasn't me who submitted the UNLV answer).

Butter · 05-30-2013, 06:38 AM

Thanks, Obamacare!

MIJB#19 · 05-30-2013, 02:20 PM

Stupid loves Japanese cars.

sterlingice · 07-07-2013, 03:57 PM

Bump- where's a new IWS?

SI

End of an era?

PurdueBrad · 03-01-2014, 10:49 AM

If neither of the two people above me run one I'll jump in and run it as I was third. I'll wait until Tuesday to see.

albionmoonlight · 03-01-2014, 12:05 PM

wow. Fucked that up. New one coming soon.

Lathum · 03-01-2014, 12:18 PM
