  • Don't complain about lack of options. You've got to pick a few when you do multiple choice. Those are the breaks.
  • Feel free to suggest poll ideas if you're feeling creative. I'd strongly suggest reading the past polls first.
  • This whole thing is wildly inaccurate. Rounding errors, ballot stuffers, dynamic IPs, firewalls. If you're using these numbers to do anything important, you're insane.

Seems to have been a long year, as I don't remember some of these. Someone refresh me, the halloween loincloth and artificial womb incidents?

      and Of course the shitty pack of lies that the NME are spouting has to beat everything for drama and upset.

            One Day Goodbye Will Be Farewell (Score:1)
            The recent "controversy" manufactured by the nme certainly grabbed the most attention, but for me, the Morrissey drama of 2007 is all the hysteria generated by the August 22nd press release on cum-on-my-face.com [true-to-you.net] suggesting/threatening impending retirement for El Morrissey.

            As he sings in One Day Goodbye Will Be Farewell, "So grab me while you still have the time..." That song is such drama...but also wonderfully comedic with verses about how "the smiling/tiny children tell you that you smell / And when I die I WANT to go to Hell".

            For sheer ugliness the NME controversy wins, hands down. Even for Morrissey, this is a truly unpleasant business.

            For pure, yummy, kinky goodness, the Baltimore Halloween show gets my vote. I've already gone on about it enough, but I would just like to thank all the lads for being so game, and letting it all hang out.

            I would also like to thank Morrissey for continuing to be so wonderfully, seductively perverse.

              The cancellations never really gets the biggest headlines, as we are all so used to Morrissey letting us down regularly. Nevertheless, cancelled concerts matter more - much more - to most of us fans than any squabbles he may have had with support acts, pathetic music journalists and suchlike.

                    what about the horrible incident on david letterman when someone had a plate of ribs sent to the show, which mr. letterman took part in eating. morrissey and fellow vegan (a.k.a. good person) Dennis "Hot Wife" Kusinich were the guests.

                    I was outraged. My wife was in tears. It's like I always say - if I could press a button that would get rid of every meat eater in the world, I would. If you eat meat, you are a truly terrible person. That also goes for animals who eat meat. Our dog ate some steak out of our neighbors garbage, I had it put to sleep.

                    P.S. It wouldn't me use caps in the subject - "Reason: PLEASE DON'T USE SO MANY CAPS. USING CAPS IS LIKE YELLING!"

                    But I am yelling you dumb meat eating twats!
