Baka & Test: Dumbest. Contest. Ever. - Question #2

This portion of the contest is over. To see the winning entry click this link.

We hope you all liked the first question in our Baka & Test: Dumbest. Contest. Ever. event. When we asked all of you to think as a member of Class F you sure didn't disappoint.

It was a tough decision but the winner of Question #1 is VonOfnir - welcome to Class F!
Question: You’re on a train that leaves New York for Orlando at 8AM, going 60 mph. Three hours later, a train leaves Orlando for New York, going 85 mph. Orlando and New York are 1200 miles apart. What time will you be able to see the other train pass?
Answer:
Teacher: "Yes, you in the back."

Boy: "Well..."

(and thus begins a conversation in his head)

- wait a second, what if there is weather?

**eyes widen**

- Is it winter? How much snow is on the ground? Is it snow or is it ice? What if it's a mixture?
What if it's not winter, maybe it's spring?

**starting to panic**

- If it's spring and we're travelling around hills or mountains...OH GOD, MOUNTAINS!!!! That
means...

**jaw drops**

- MUDSLIDES!!!!!

**closes mouth and now has an inquisitive look on his face**

- But it could be in the summer...nice weather, can see everything.

**closes eyes and imagines the image with a relaxed smirk on his face**

- The animals on the farm grazing without any problems in the world. People walking around in
love, walking hand in hand. Workers working hard at their jobs. Oh it's starting to get a little dark,
must be rain. Wind is starting to pick up a bit...a lot actually.

** as a cow flies by in his dream, he snaps out of trance with eyes wide open and jaw dropped
and super panicked as he stands straight up and runs out of the classroom in terror screaming...
(which ends his own conversation in his head)

Boy: "HURRICANE!!!!!! AAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!! **crying**

Teacher looks confused and struck with awe.

Teacher: "Uhhh..."

**Teacher sees a girl with her hand raised intently as if she knows the answer.**

Teacher: How about you miss?

Girl: "6:05PM?"

There is still have room for two more students to join the ranks of Class F so do not worry. Because worrying requires proper thinking, and we can't have any of that here.

Answer the following question, most creative unintelligent or 'BAKA' answer wins the prize!


Question #2: Science
Explain why the sky is blue.
BAKA answer example: Because the ocean’s blue, and when water evapperates evapourrates goes into the air, the wet part becomes the clouds (don’t ask me how, I think it has to do with photosynthesis) and the blue color gets absorbed into the sky???

Question #2 Prize Pack

  • Full Metal Panic!: The Complete Series DVD
  • Negima!: The Complete Series DVD
  • Baka and Test postcard
  • Baka and Test poster, autographed by Alexis Tipton, voice of Mizuki Himeji

synopsis: Class F is back in the Baka and Test - Summon the Beasts: OVA Special Collection! Fumizuki Academy's popular Refreshing Festival is quickly approaching, and the student body is busy prepping class projects. For Yoshii and the gang, there's a lot more at stake than showing off for campus visitors. If Class F doesn't profit from its festival project and buy some new gear for its dumpy room, Mizuki's parents are going to send her to another school! Of course, even if the slack pack makes some money, they'll have to win one of the toughest Summoner Test Wars of their lives before they're allowed to spend it. It's not going to be easy, that's for sure. But once the underachievers of Class F get motivated, they don't give up - and they can't even spell surrender!

If you missed them there is also Season One (DVD/Blu-ray Combo) and Season Two (DVD/Blu-ray Combo) available now.

*reads over test*
hmpf I've answered easier questions in my sleep....not that i get any TT^TT, the answer is simple is it because. because..... because..... Oh god I forgot! dang dang dang I have to think of something quick..okay whats blue, uh uh uhh Oh! fruit gushers are blue! alright I can work with that, okay so when Christopher Columbus and and The Mona Lisa sailed the ocean to reach America they came across a lost civilization.....yeah this sounds good so far so they went there and discovered a wild fruit gusher farm as far as the eye can see, so they hopped on their speed boat to go tell the duke of... Ferdinand that they have hit the jackpot,so they got their boats and went over there to harvest the goodies now keep in mind the sky was pure white then, so they went their and the moment they stepped foot there were an army of soldiers meant to protect the gushers with their life...for days the battle went on and the natural gusher farm soon was soon destroyed for they have discovered that they were expired and tasted horrible, so everyone got mad and threw it at the sky...and then it stained the earths nice brand new shirt(the white sky was a shirt) that it had just bought to impress mars, it had no choice but to wear a stained shirt for the rest of its life. that was when the Earth got irritated and decided to destroy the dinosaurs and that is why the sky is blue. *inside my mind* "Yes!! I totally got that question right! haha I didn't know why I had doubts in the first place!"

Because the ocean's blue and when water gets blasted to the sky with a missile, some of its particles get sent up into the air and when it melts, it turns into clowns. The clowns transform into robots and explode in a flashy manner. After the explosion, a big hand appears and dips the explosion in a paint brush and paints the sky. The explosion creates a batch of paint that colors the sky blue. That's what I think how the sky gets its color.

The sky got dumped or something?

Q. Explain why the sky is blue.

Answer 1: Blue? It's back?!?! Really? I thought I- OH YEAH YEAH YES IT IS!!! IT'S BLUE. IT'S BLUE. DEFINATLY. IT WASN'T MY FAULT, REALLY! No no no no the sky is definatly not purple...

OK IM SORRY I DID IT

I took a short cut on my way home from skool and for some strange reason, I got lost! I mean, how often does that happen?!? So anyway I stopped to get a burger from a nearby store cuz I was hungry but I forgot my wallet at home but I COULDN'T get back home cuz I was lost, so I did the only thing that I could. I used my briliant invension: the STICK. The STICK can do anything: just throw it up in the air and it'll point you in the right direction. So I threw it up in the air, and it hit something up there... It was the sky! I must have broken it because it was suddenly purple and red! I'm so sorry! When I finaly made my way back home I went to sleep on the couch. Later, when I woke up at 800 am in the afternoon to go to school, it was still purple! It seems to switch back to blue during the afternoons, though. Around 1300 it usualy's regular again.

Again, SO SORRY

Answer 2: Maybe the sky has emotional problems?

Thursday, Feb 21, 2013 at 9:09 pm

You see, the sky is blue because when it was just a little baby sky, there was no one around to care about it or love it. So, it's really just depressed, which is why the sky is always blue. That's also where rain comes from- the sky is crying.

Teacher you amuse me with your stupidity. As a honors student of my caliber I wish you would have at least made an attempt at amusing my overly sized intellect. If I had a choice between picking you and a fish between my teacher I would pick the fish because, at least the fish makes itself useful by inhabiting our lovely oceans and fueling the fish related economy. Also I am quite sure that this soon-to-be replacement fish teacher sensei would breathe in water that is more intellectual than you.

Now i must apologize for comparing fish sensei with the likes of you. Your existence is a disgrace to the whole ecology of planet earth. I bet if I place you in a game show situation with a pot of soil then that pot of soil would win. Mostly because you would rack up thousands upon thousands of negative points while the soil (being smarter than you) would keep its mouth shut.

Don't worry though, after fish sensei replaces you I'm sure society could find you a stable job that pays slightly well. For example you could get the job of holding up advertisements at a street corner. Yes this seems like a good job for you, correct? WRONG! That same pot of soil you faced on the game show will soon replace you even there in your new job, seeing that a pot of soil (with a higher IQ than you) will charge even less to work then yourself.

Also I'm sure that all of the other "advertisement holding up" professionals could have a better conversation with that pot of soil then they could ever hope to have with you around the water cooler. That pot of soil will soon get invited to all of the parties that you should have attended and will probably end up stealing your future wife. Eventually that pot of soul will end up on the cover of "Forbes" magazine with a mocking smirk directed at you.

At this point I'm sure your asking yourself "No, my life cant get much worse, can it?" and teacher sensei this is why I call you un-intellectual. I'm sure somewhere in your endeavors to redeem yourself you will end up working under that pot of soil who is now in your dream position working as CEO of printing corporation. That pot of soil will see you new work application and approve it just so later, down the line, you can be replaced by a sloth.

Now I know what your thinking "A sloth no I'm more productive then a sloth. Also who would hire an animal in place of me?" the same kind of person who replaced you with a fish and a pot of soil, that's who. They would chose to replace with a sloth because all though the sloth is obviously lazy, during the time it is awake its IQ will surpass your IQ by at least 10 fold.

Now to answer your question about the sky. The sky is blue because of the infamous "light blue paint surplus" of 1934 were painters from all around, who were devastated by large quantity of light blue paint decided that it was a good idea to not waste it. So they combined their painting skills to make the sky their canvas.

I'm sorry but i don't think i can "Dumb" down my answer anymore

Student:*raises hand*

Teacher: Yes? You in the front.

Student:The Sky is Blue because.... You are colorblind!!!

Teacher: Wha...? What?

Student: Look!! My fellow classmates! Outside!

It's Dusk

Student: It's not blue!! It's purple/red! The sky is not Blue!!! But when it is it's because....

Teacher: Answer it!!!

Student: It's because.... It wanted to be blue!!

Teacher: ....

Student: It just wanted to be different! Is that so wrong!!? Everything outside is either Green, Green, or more Green!!! The Sky wanted to be different than the rest of the world! It wanted to be something new!! That's why it is not Green!!

Teacher: ... That's.... inspiring.... But the question was why is the sky Blue....

Student: Oh... Whoops got sidetracked. Ok it's blue because when the world was created God ran out of green paint! And all he had was blue! But there wasn't enough to cover the entire Sky! Therefore there are white blotches in the sky!

Classmate: You mean the Clouds?

Student: I meant what I meant!!

Teacher: ... You may sit...

Student: Ok thank you!!

Classmate 2: *raises hand*

Teacher: Wait I didn't write out the next question!

Class: That counted as an answer!!!!!!!!!!!?????
