So it only took 2 weeks to go down "this" road....................SWEET!

really? with all the possible uses of ranker, you decided this was the best use in just it's second outting?

im not sure if I'm supposed to up vote or down vote the worst food.

Vote up ones that sound awful...vote down ones that don't sound so awful.

Relax, @skr213. Breathe. Everything is going to be okay.

you're awesome dude

Next weeks topic should be favorite year, of 5 to choose from in order or not, and why in two sentences or less, and not ridiculously long run on sentences, like this one.

this is really, really stupid. What a waste of something that was really fun last week.

Here's hoping you get this back on the trolley next week.

Mental images of a 'DREADCICLE' have me convulsing on the floor! (cotf)

This *IS* stupid.

(It was meant to be)

I must inquire phandom, can you still have fun?

I totally get it. You tried to introduce a completely different kind of poll, one that wasn't directly about the band or music in general, but only to show that we can and will have a lot of fun doing this poll thing every week. Great idea, but bad execution on this. It panders to the lowest common denominator, which ignores that for the most part, every active participant on this site is pretty intelligent, and would prefer to be challenged than, I don't know, whatever this is. My vote goes to poo though...poo is bad.

The bar for success is so high. But fret not! Next week will be "most impactful changes in Phish time signatures while in a minor key"

God, some of you guys sound like you're a blast to be around at parties.

Now that's a poll I'd love to swing on!

You said pole.

I appreciate those of you who appear to understand the experimental nature of this new content and the fact that we're trying to get our arms around its range, even if you didn't enjoy this one a bit. I think we're starting to understand that the tool is best used for asking meaty and thoughtful questions about the band and its music. That might seem like an assumption, but we wanted to test it, and we're glad we did.

Best of Fishman's hats/beards/outfits. Please.

lot cod is pretty bad

i'd like to see a poll on best song versions of tour that were NOT jammed. Seriously.

DREADSICLE!!! Anyone interested in an earwax candle?

Boy, next December .net fund drive is going to work on getting you some music theory lessons. We will do more than just buy you a book, we will hire a tutor to explain it too.

I would have said that *beer* is delicious when it is washing down rocky mountain oysters. In my experience, the deep fryer grease is the best thing about them.

BTW, here's hoping that Trey and Page change "lump block clod" to "bath salt cod" during Fluffhead at Dick's this weekend.

Strictly as a one-off, I'll allow this. ;-)

Phishing poll just jumped the shark.

The three jams to top the last poll were not webcast. Nice coincidence.
