IWS #162 RESULTS: Sorry For Having a Life

Karlifornia · 05-18-2009, 03:27 PM

Here we are. It's a beautiful Monday afternoon. The sun is shining, the birds are chirping, the world is beautiful. Too bad I haven't been able to enjoy it, because I'm trying to appease all of you!

Without further ado, here are the results:

1.Who is the most physically attractive Olympic athlete of all time?

Amanda Beard 7
Katarina Witt 7
Jennie Finch 5
Michael Phelps 4
Anna Kournikova 2
Mary Lou Retton 2
Allison Stokke
Mia Hamm
Picabo Street
Ana Heartelt
Sue Bird
Shawn Johnson
Sasha Cohen
Hope Solo

If there was any justice in this world, Sasha Cohen would have won.

2.Name a David Bowie song.

Let's Dance 8
Space Oddity 7
Changes 5
Life On Mars 4
Ziggy Stardust 4
China Girl 2
Young Americans 2
Under Pressure
Dancing In The Street
Fame

It was neck and neck all the way, and then I guess stupid did another line of coke and felt like dancing.

3.Other than Tabasco, name a brand of hot sauce.

Frank's Red Hot 16
Texas Pete 6
Louisiana 5
Red Devil
Ha Has
La Victoria
Taco Bell
Cayenne Sauce
Crystal
Tapatio
Sriracha

Sriracha is very popular in more authentic asian restaurants and pho noodle houses. You're not going to find it at Fung Lum's Chinese in Winnemucca, though. Ha has is one I've never heard of. I thought Louisiana would win, honestly.

4.If you were stranded on an island, and you had to eat your dead friend, which part of their body would you eat first?

Leg 18
Thigh 4
Arm 4
Butt 3
Breast 2
Face
Heart

This one was a definite eliminator. If you aren't chowing down on your buddy's leg, then you lose.

5.Which singer has the best rack?

Dolly Parton 13
Jessica Simpson 8
Britney Spears 4
Mariah Carey 2
Christina Aguilera 2
Kelly Clarkson
Shakira
Beyonce
Madonna
Alizee
Katy Perry

I thought Dolly Parton was a fairly obvious answer, if a bit dated. I'm surprised anyone picked Alizee, considering girls usually don't even have racks until they hit puberty

6.Name a neighborhood in Los Angeles.

Compton 15
Hollywood 10
Beverly Hills 4
Watts 2
Inglewood 2
Brentwood
East L.A.

If I may pat myself on the back for a moment, I really liked this question. I guess a lot of people on here grew up in the 90's, because Compton was really in the spotlight, what with it getting a shout-out in practically every G-Funk song. I thought Beverly Hills would be higher, and Brentwood would have only scored high if this IWS had taken place during the apex of the O.J. trial.

Wanna know who won? Well, now you're gonna find out:

Taaka Vodka

Lathum
CU Tiger
kcchief19
Lorena
Abe Sargent
General Mike
Dubb93

Johnnie Walker Blue

MrDNA
Autumn

Patron Platinum, and runner-up

MikeVic

Remy Martin Louis XIII, and new champion
Tarcone

Thanks for playing and having patience with me!

MikeVic · 05-18-2009, 03:30 PM

Whoo, best finish! When can I expect my Patron. Could I get some Alizee with that too, regardless of your disrespectful low blow?

Danny · 05-18-2009, 03:32 PM

Good showing for me, but not quite enough to get into the top 3. I thought for sure Britney would have been higher and debated between Hollywood and Compton, but thought Hollywood would have more. Damn 2Pac!

Karlifornia · 05-18-2009, 03:35 PM

Oh, and I'll attach the spreadsheet here in a bit. Just wanted to get this up to satiate the foaming mouths.

lighthousekeeper · 05-18-2009, 03:53 PM

Mary Lou Retton?

Abe Sargent · 05-18-2009, 03:59 PM

I continue to crappify this game

QuikSand · 05-18-2009, 04:00 PM

I really don't mind coming up with a decent, but not the best, answer to a respectable IWS question. I said Michael Phelps, but didn't feel good about it, and was right not to.

But I just hate totally botching a question and posting a singleton. Drat.

Abe Sargent · 05-18-2009, 04:03 PM

Btw, for the official record, Picabo Street is totally hot.

path12 · 05-18-2009, 04:14 PM

I can't believe I didn't even think of Dolly Parton.

JeeberD · 05-18-2009, 04:17 PM

I would have done shitty if I had gotten a submission in...

Pyser · 05-18-2009, 05:05 PM

brutal. great questions though

LoneStarGirl · 05-18-2009, 05:23 PM

Thigh is part of the leg!

Lathum · 05-18-2009, 06:01 PM

I would eat my friends face so I didn't have to deal with them looking at me while I at the rest of them.

I thought about this for a moment, but didn't lose any sleep over it. If someone answered "calf" I would have counted that separately as well. Sorry.

GoldenEagle · 05-18-2009, 07:13 PM

I thought this place loved Kelly Clarkson!

MrDNA · 05-18-2009, 07:25 PM

I don't even know who Amanda Beard is!

And I thought Mary Lou was an appropriate Stupid answer for the old-heads on the board

EDIT: Oooooh, that's Amanda Beard. :bugout:

tarcone · 05-18-2009, 08:35 PM

Wow. I feel great. This really almost makes up for doing so bad in the paper, rock, scissors competition.

What is the protocol? I do the next IWS?

Yep. That is your assignment, should you choose to accept it.

Maybe in a freshman-math teacher kind of way.

I think I was one of the maroons who put Mary Lou. I was going to put Beard and talked myself into going with someone more famous even if less sexy. But for Shawn Johnson to get a vote and Alicia Sacramone to get a bagel, that's not right.

I'm going to go and surf Sasha Cohen pics now to soothe my spirit. Where's that one of her laid out on the ice?

Ah ... there it is. I'll be back in a few minutes.

kcchief19 · 05-18-2009, 09:12 PM

And Compton? When did Stupid become such a bad ass?

Pyser · 05-19-2009, 02:31 AM

Because even in the most attractive picture you could find of her, she has a dog face.

LoneStarGirl · 05-23-2009, 04:29 PM

BUMP for Tarcone!

tarcone · 05-23-2009, 04:35 PM

It will be done this weekend. I didnt realize there was so much pressure that came with winning.

Autumn · 05-23-2009, 08:17 PM

Oh, I missed the results. I'm psyched, my first time doing it and a really good finish.

If I had said Dolly I'm sure I would have been at the top. I couldn't bring myself too, I thought you guys had better taste. Bigger does not mean better, you know!

Remember this is "I'[m with STUPID"

the most obvious if not the BEST answer is what will win.
