(This list brought to you by **Freudian Slit**!)

_ **Read all the Rules!** _

_ **DO NOT READ THIS THREAD BEFORE YOU POST YOUR ANSWERS** _

Try to think of the most popular answer, to get the most people matching you. Scoring - Any answer duplicated by anyone else is worth 100 points divided by the number of entrants. For example: 50 entrant game = 2 pts per answer. If 4 people match that means they each get 8 pts for that answer. No matches = 0 points.

_ **READ THIS!!!** _

**Write your answers like this** ; Do not repeat the questions, no periods at the end of answers, no spaces between lines, no comments, no fancy list coding. If you need to comment or clarify your answers, do it AFTER the list of answers. Thanks.  
JUST LIKE THIS:

**1. answer  
2. response  
3. rejoinder**

If this format is ignored, **Brujaja** will come in and kick your ass!

The game will end either when we have 50 entrants, or at 4:30 PM Central on Friday, 5/30/08 whichever comes first. Good luck!

Comments:

For #4, I thought of “1986 copies of _Highlights for Children_” as a joke answer. I’m curious to see how many people actually go with something like that.

For #8, I’m obviously hoping that responses will be of the “type of” rather than “specific brand” variety.

For #9, I thought of “dating him for his money”, but again decided to stick with a more specifically medicine-related answer.
