Many had several potential answers. Tell me that saying "oh the silence is deafening!" isn't hyperbole. And if you think I read Hunger Games you're insane 😻🙏

15. Fast means to move quickly or to stay put (to make a rope fast), so in my mind is also a perfectly valid answer. Most of the rest were beyond my caring of the English language.

The opposite of 'move quickly' is 'move slowly', not 'stay put', so 'fast' is not a contranym. In your 'rope' example, 'fast' means 'securely fastened', so again is not the opposite of moving quickly. EDIT: The irony of being downvoted for explaining an error in language - in a post about the correct use of language 🙄
