IWS #222 - Stupid has a bad week

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 all had those weeks from hell. Too many commitments, too little time. It's exhausting, but you get through it. Stupid had that week last week.

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?

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 ( )?

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?

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?

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?

6) 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?


Please PM answers with "IWS #222" in the title by midnight Monday June 30...unless it's another one of those weeks, in which case it will be longer.

I have no idea what preteen girls are all about so I probably Millennium Falconed Up the last question. Is there a "phone a friend" option in IWS?

Oops. My statement was unintentionally misleading. No hints there, I promise.
