Win Friends | Period 4 | Class 7
These were the days when Barney loved his job. Really.
He stood at the front of a regular classroom looking fantastic in charcoal pinstripe, gripping the podium with one hand and a glass of scotch with the other as he watched the students come in and take their seats.
"Students, as your Dean of Awesome, I will be taking over Ms. Upland's class from here to the end of the semester. Unless we all die in some freak invasion, and then it'll end before then." He should not be hoping for an invasion given his reaction to dinosaurs, and yet. "I have some papers that tell me what her course was about, but I think we can all agree that I don't care. So, today starts the first day in the rest of your lives as you fine few will learn to go forth and be AWESOME. Yes, you heard right, this is now How to be Awesome 201. We're starting today with a quiz to determine what you already know about Awesomely choosing the winner in a fight." He was betting not a lot. Unless some had taken his class this summer, and then they had to be advanced or at least angrily mediocre at any task.
"Getting in a fight? Lame. Watching someone else fight? Awesome. While some of the great ones have already been settled, such as Alien v. Predator, Rocky v. Drago, thong v.underwear - others are still too close to call (blonde v. brunette). That being said, this quiz offers up some great fights I would pay to see. Now it's your turn to rock the vote on what you think the outcome would be." Barney circulated the room, tossing quiz papers on desks, ensuring everyone got one.
"I know it's the start of Homecoming weekend and all you ladies need a lot of time to slut up appropriately, so as soon as you're finished quizzing it up you are free to leave. Think of it as my gift to your dance partners. Now, get our your pencils!"

QUIZ IT UP!
1) Super Lightweight Champion:
Baguettes meet hockey sticks in a battle of places that feature cold temperatures, funny accents, and weird looking currency. Canada's slight edge for its proximity to America and for producing Pamela Anderson is immediately nullified by the existence of French-Canadians.
Which is the 'better' country: (A) Canada or (B) France?
2) Middleweight Champion:
One celebrates growing wood, the other celebrates poles.
Who wins the battle of fantastic holidays: (A) Arbor Day or (B) Flag Day?
3) Heavyweight Championship:
This 'showdown' recently opened up when undefeated World Champion, Bob Barker retired. Trebek's knowledge of military warfare and history gives him a slight edge, though if Sajak connects with a right hook, it could be lights out: 25 years of spinning that wheel has turned his hand to iron and if he's able to channel his silent rage over never taking a run at Vanna White, Sajak could leave Trebek's face in the form of a question.
Vote in the Game Show Host Match-up: (A) Trebek or (B) Sajak?
4) The Main Event:
Both events have been staples of debauchery since the bleary-eyed dawn of man. Both attract girls who will do almost anything for a reasonable fee of plastic beads. While Spring Break holds a geographical advantage (celebrated all over the globe), Mardi Gras rocks an impenetrable fortress – not even Mother Nature herself can ruin that party.
Who wins the slap down of debauchery: (A) Mardi Gras or (B) Spring Break?

At least some Canadians spoke something resembling proper American. Though nothing could beat Verona.

Re: 2) Middleweight Champion:
"They're both absurd," he decided, shaking his head and curling his lip a little. Trees or poles. Honestly.
Re: 3) Heavyweight Championship:
Re: 4) The Main Event:
Re: 3) Heavyweight Championship:
Neither. Regis would step in while they were both preoccupied with one another, and would lay down his 'final answer' attack on them both without letting them use their lifelines. Endgame.
Re: 4) The Main Event:
They were called Mardi Gras beads first, damn it.
Re: OOC | Class 7
For you: Barney's Answer Key
1. Trick question: America. America is the best country. All other countries are irrelevant.
2. (A) - Arbor Day - The environment is in trouble everybody.
3. (B) - Sajak - What is... Getting your ass kicked, Trebek?
4. Boobs! Nobody loses. Everybody wins.
Re: Lecture | Class 7
Now it was the 'what kind of crazy bug are you?' stare. Watching other people fight was for vague amusement after slaughtering a sizeable number of enemies, while you relaxed and fed on their corpses.

Re: 2) Middleweight Champion:
Re: 3) Heavyweight Championship:
This, though, was a match she might actually watch. The iron hand of the Sajak could be a formidable weapon, assuming the Trebek didn't have tentacles or reality-warping powers.

Re: 1) Super Lightweight Champion:
She didn't specify that hot hockey players were the reason for her choice.
