OT: I'm With Stupid #33

For our "Rolling Rock Revival" of this storied contest, we'll try to stick to the basics. Six questions, you submit by PM to me your answers, seeking to supply answers that are offered by the most contestants. Your score for each question equals the number of people who submitted your answer, your score for the contest is the combined product of youur individual question scores.

There exists a more detailed set of rules and previous winners, which I will try to post when I get a chance. (All the traditional rules apply here, but you get the idea from the above I hope)

Send your responses by Friday 8pm ET, and I will post results over the weekend.

- - -

IWS #33

#1 - Name a company brand name that has become the general word for that type of product

#2 - Name a word that is frequently misspelled by internet users

#3 - Name an actor, past or present, who is/was strongly associated with one particular role

#4 - Name a song that everyone knows the words to, other than patriotic, holiday, or birthday-related songs

#5 - Name a Spanish-speaking country in South America

#6 - Name a quarterback who is currently looking for an NFL job

Hmmm... apparently not, eh? Thus, "stick to the basics."

Just thought it made it more challenging but you do have some tough questions for this one.

I'm a fan of both contests ("I'm with Stupid" and "Make Mine Rare") and ama glad both have followings within FOFC. IWS seems to be the greater draw, and that's what I technically "won" the right to continue. This time, I'm keeping it fairly simple without the added twists. No harm done, just in the interests of saving my time, which is a little scarce right now.

Everything except the quarterback and South America would have an infinite number of answers. (And people would even come up with some sorry-ass answers for the QB in the MMR) Make mine rare need to be more defined, like planets, or days of the week.

sent...it's been a while since I've done an IWS. I suck, normally. Let's see how I fare this time around...

Great questions! Especially number 1.

My father and I named off several of these during a car ride over the weekend.

Just a refresh/extension, because my PM space got filled up... so some submissions might have been missed. If you got an error - try again, I have cleraed out space.

Results later today, hopefully. (We have over 20 entries - pretty decent)
