Random Poll
MCF's latest.
1) When you see Kurtwood Smith, do you think ”Red Forman” or ”Clarence Boddicker”?
I'd actually forgotten that Red Forman was even in Robocop. I only ever saw That 70's Show three or four times. It never really grabbed me.
2) Do our social roles during our school years lock us in to who we will be for the rest of our lives?
Gut reaction: We're not locked into anything. But most of us carry over a lot of crap from high school, most of it negative and/or useless. That iconic image from Pink Floyd The Wall really gets it right. School is a meatgrinder.
3) Do you typically come to a full stop at a Stop Sign?
I think I actually do. I got a ticket once for not doing so and I never forgot it.
4) Which is prettier: a sunrise or a sunset?
Sunset. No idea why I feel that way, but I feel strongly about it.
5) On a recent episode of Reaper, one of the characters uses Les Nessman as a fake name. On a recent 30 Rock, a character was referred to as a ”Radar O'Reilly”. I love such pop culture nods, but as I'm getting older, I wonder: does anyone under the age of 30 get these references?
WOT R U TALKINBOUT? TXT ME L8R.
6) Does your imagination ever cause you to wince?
All the time. Ever been cheated on? 'Nuff said.
7) Is there a place in science fiction for more fantastic elements such as intervention from a higher power, celestial beings, or shared visions?
Sure, I guess. Never thought about it. Why wouldn't there be?
8) Baked or original Doritos?
Original Nacho Cheese flavor. Mmmmm.
10) Does anyone still use rotary phones?
I'm sure that somewhere, somebody's grandma has a rotary phone AND a party line.
11) Should the Poll go up to 11?
We really gotta come up with a new Spinal Tap reference. How about "You can't really dust for vomit."

Ahhhh! Spinal Tap! that's the name of the movie I couldn';t think of over at MCF's---I knew it had an 11 and a foil-wrapped banana
I rarely made it past the opening credits of That 70s Show. I've seen one or two episodes and a bunch of cold opens. I definitely think of Robocop first with that guy, although not as much as with other actors like Peter Weller, and Dick Joooooones, who went on to play Senator Kinsey on Stargate and really should do 24 like practically everyone else from Robocop. Only Paul McCrane(ER's Rocket Romano) and Ray Wise(Reaper's Devil) managed to create more memorable characters for me post-RC.
I like the Sweet Chili flavor Doritos. They're the best new flavor. And yeah a new ST reference would be good.
