Oh the Ring chick? Yikes.
 
Be a shame if someone were to tie the poll.
 
Okay, time for an essay question to get my vote.

Which casting choice would provide a greater challenge for audiences to accept? James Bond, portrayed by an African sideneck turtle, or Superman, portrayed by a 400 gram roll of Kingspor sandpaper? Give at least one reason for your choice.
 
I'd say your JB choice. Superman always rubbed me the wrong way.
 
Tacit all the way. If I was a cantankerous old blacksmith, and he an orphan child, I'd probably adopt him.
 
I voted for you both in round 1.
Give me a reason to vote you over your opponent.

Superman. Ian Flemming's vision of a perfect MI6 involved their best agent being a turtle. If the MI6's best agent is a turtle then all they have to do is throw a turtle at their problems. A millionaire wants to detonate a nuke in Fort Knox, dude with three nipples wants to make a solar gun, someone wants to make a undersea kingdom, for all those situations you can just send in the turtle. Sandpaper as an alien that gets the power of flight, strength, speed, invulnerability, and heat vision from the sun? That is just completely ridiculous.
 
Well well well... here we are... finally another round...


Whoever tells me how best to clean my shoes after kicking jokesonm3's ass gets the vote.

Boil your shoes. It's how I clean all my clothes. I boil my denim jeans, shirts, jackets, gloves, etc.
 
Boiling denim... We have a winner.

African turtle would be harder for people to accept because it's African and it would likely end up on a Christian Children's Fund commercial with a tear in its eye and flies flying around it with a voice over asking for money. People would just change the channel and then judge the turtle for not working hard enough.

Sandpaper has the same emotional range as Snyder's Superman. So consistency.

Shoe shine.

And not the urban dictionary definition of shoe shine.

I love reasons. I give the best reasons. Thank you for asking me about reasons. Vote for me because of reasons.

Hmmmm...not sure who to vote for here. So here's my question: You are MacGruber, trapped in a room with a bomb. You can either have Donald Trump or Ryan Lochte as your Sidekick in this life-or-death scenario. Which do you choose, why, and how do you see the scenario playing out?

I would choose Ryan Lochte because I could convince him that the bomb is actually a magical device that would imbue someone with super powers if they lay on the device when it explodes. But the person has to be naked.

Then I would wear all of his clothing (which would be a lot because I live in Canada and could convince Ryan that Canada is a land of permanent ice age and he would need to wear heavy duty, super warm and layered clothing in order to survive) and shelter myself in the corner of the room. Once Ryan explodes, I would use his strewn about body parts for sustenance and whittle a lock pick out of his bones and leave the room.
 
I'm going with Elektra on this one, though both of you had some of the best answers of any of my essay questions so far. I went with Elektra because she "went there" with the starving turtle charity.
 
Thank you, fellow Canuck.

That's a damn good charity; thanks to them, I'm sponsoring a 19-year-old girl in Calgary. I even heard she got a job in a place called "The Viper Room": I assume it's in construction, because I get letters about how she's working poles.
