THE RESULTS ARE IN!


1) Stupid Jr has his last baseball game of the season, and Stupid really wants to be there. What times does stupid leave work to make sure he gets there?

4:00 - 9
3:00 - 3
5:00 - 3
12:00 - 3

I want to work at a place I can randomly slide out at noon!

2) Mrs Stupid calls our hero at work, something wrong at home. Ever the handyman, Stupid thinks he can fix it when he gets home. Which appliance is on the fritz?

Washing Machine - 5
Refrigerator - 4
Dishwasher - 3
Computer - 2
Air Conditioner - 1
Plumbing - 1
Toilet - 1
Garbage Disposal - 1

All over the board on this one.

3) Stupid Jr has hockey practice at 6:00; Stupidina has dance rehearsal at 6:30. Where does the family grab dinner from on the way?

McDonalds - 17
Subway - 1

Stupid and family love their McDs!

4) What's this, nothing on the schedule? After dinner, the whole stupid family relaxes in front of the TV. What show does the whole family watch together?

American Idol - 7
Modern Family - 4
The Voice - 3
The Middle - 1
The Simpsons - 1
News - 1
Family Matters - 1

Apparently, Stupid was such a big fan of Urkel, he pops in some old VHS copies of 'Family Matters' whenever he gets the chance.


5) Stupid has neglected the yard for over a week. The neighbors shake their heads in disgust when they peer our their windows. How long does it take Stupid to mow the entire yard?

1 hour - 11
1/2 hour - 2
2 hours - 2
45 minutes - 2
5 hours - 1

Time for stupid to hire some kids in the neighborhood if he's spending 5 hours on the yard.

His darling Stupidina is having a birthday with all her loud, wild, pre-teen friends. What theme does Stupid's daughter for her birthday bash?

Good one. Nice mix of eliminators and all-over-the-boarders

Only answer I feel bad about not getting right is Frozen. I feel stupid about that one.

Don't...because I've got a (now) 10 year old...and it never hit me.

Funny part about the One Direction answer.

My brother in law (older sister's husband) bought a 1D poster. Then printed pictures of me, himself, my son, my dad, and my younger sister's boyfriend, and taped them over the faces on the poster.

My daughter was, to put it mildly, dumbfounded. And pissed!

I felt like stupid would've gone more generic so I picked Disney. Guess not.

What is "Frozen" ?

The last Disney out there ? (called La Reine des Neiges over here....)

Not one tenth as dumb as I feel. My girlfriend's an actress and on the weekends she works for a company that provides entertainment for these rich Los Angeles kids' birthday parties. Almost every single week she's dressed up as one of the princesses from Frozen, but I didn't think Stupid would be up to date on what's hot among the pre-teen crowd.

Yep, if I'm getting "queen" and "snow" out of that.
