I'm With Stupid XVII: No stupid questions, just stupid answers
The rules, as always, are so simple even the most stupid should understand them. You answer to the questions or do the assignments given (see #9) and send the answers to the quizmaster, that's me, via PM. Scores are calculated on not how correct they are, but on how many others chose the same answer. The answer doesn't have to be in any way correct: if eight people reply to the hypotethical question "What time is it?" with "large doses of analgesics", they will receive eight points each for that question.

The questions:

1. What's the worst thing in catching a disease?
2. How many people will participate in the 17th edition of I'm With Stupid?
3. What will cause the ultimate demise of Mankind?
4. Why do Finnish athletes suck at track and field?
5. Why would anyone want to watch soap operas?
6. Which Apolyton poster is most likely to take over the world or at least a sizeable portion of it?
7. If you could travel back in time, what year would you go to?
8. Is that massive cerebral hemorrhaging, or are you just happy to see me?
9. Come up with a cool alternative for the English word 'Earth' (the planet).

The deadline is September 3rd, 1200 GMT, that's next Wednesday. I won't be able to read or delete private messages until then, but I only have around twenty in store and the limit is 150.

Shouldn't we have a competition for a change where the winner actually gets more than 50 points? Oh well.

A good selection of non obvious answer questions.

Those who complain that we don't get anyone in the 50s anymore should realize that 1) the more people that play the higher the scores will be 2) we got in the 50s when people didn't bother to answer the questions and just used a "banana" answer and 3) Multiple choice questions and yes/no questions lend themselves to higher scores.

Oh and in a minute, will be sent.

(and did I mention, "baby turn around and let me see that sexy body go bump, bump, bump" from the 4th page )
