That's okay, I've been supporting third parties since 1980 so I'm kind of used to "throwing away" my vote...

<br>Do realize that interpreting the questions properly is the first part of the test...um...poll.

Responses not strictly adhering to the questions will be summarily eliminated.

Partial lists will be eliminated.

Lists not in preferential order will be eliminated.

Lists longer than 50 songs will be shortened wtih extreme prejudice.

Suggestions of "how 'bout we do this or that" will be met with "how 'bout you just STFU?!"

I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers...um...poll.

Remember, I...am watching...YOU!
