Poll for the week of July 15 - July 21, 2002

The Question

Would you rather have a night of romance with Buttercup from the Powerpuff Girls, or MTV’s Daria?

The Response Starters:

1. Buttercup. She’s hip. She’s cute. And I am a pedophile. Also…
2. Daria knows how to have a good time. Seriously, she is the Starbucks of my heart. Also…

Lacey: eww what terrible choices- a giggly twit or a depression case… why wasnt there any option of like princess jasmine or something? she was hot… but my vote, since im a lesbian and all, would be a wild threesome with them both- might as well go all out

THE RUNNERS UP

Kurt: neither.

Stef: i would not want a romance night with either…..i want a night alone with you sweet cheeks

AND THE REST….In No Particular Order

Shaun: In response to the poll: Both choices are fraught with danger. Should one choose Buttercup, he’d be in trouble physically. Not only does Buttercup kick ass, she’s uncontrollable, physically unbeatable, and has a tough streak a mile wide. Be prepared to be physically beaten. Then there’s Daria. Of course, she’d be unpleasable. Talk about a mental battering. All night, he’d be made to feel completely inadequate. So in final response, the person to make this choice would be a masochist. In my case, I’d choose Buttercup. The physical wounds would heal eventually, but the emotional scars inflicted by Daria would never go away.

DksideOmoon: Buttercup. shes hip. shes cute. and I am a pedophile. also…wait…wait a minute…no no NO i’m not a pedophile! I swear! Mike D put that there!! Honest!!! ok, so….\ she looked 18….

Sven The Pig: Daria knows how to have a good time. Seriously, she is the starbucks of my heart. also she is the only one out of the two that is of legal age. Buttercup, although very powerful and cute, is just a small child and as I am not a pedophile, I do not find her sexually attractive. For that reason I would have to choose the highly sarcastic and sometimes depressing Daria.

jaybes: Buttercup. shes hip. shes cute. and I am a pedophile. also daria sucks my left nut. Way too melodramatic, who needs that in a relationship? Certainly not me.

MissAmandaLee: Daria knows how to have a good time. Seriously, she is the starbucks of my heart. although honestly i don’t go for the female type….*giggle* she rocks much more than that high pitched annoyance they call buttercup.

dirtLOVESanger: your sick! sick! sick! sicko. man, your sick.

how p e a r l y:Daria. You know how Pearl Jam says “there’s nothing like your baritone”? yeah, well, there ain’t nothing like her monotone, baby.

jenniferjoy3:this poll is not gender-friendly, mike d.

dwora42:Daria. Buttercup doesn’t do that kind of thing. Romance is for sissies.

guyootie:Buttercup. shes hip. shes cute. and I am a pedophile. also i am picking her for lack of a better choice, since i am a girl. but i must say, if i was a lesbian and had to pick one, it would be buttercup. daria just doesn’t do it for me, she’s not hot. even though buttercup has grossly huge eyeballs that cover half of her face, she’s still wicked cute.

Reaching back into the depths of pre-history, before mikedidonato.com was founded, before HnH, there was an initial foray into the world of Internet polls. This took form as a series of AIM polls contained in Mike D.’s AIM profile, which would be presented to the world for a week, and then the results of the poll were rated by Mike D., a “winner” was awarded, and the results put up on a very primitive web site, maintained by, well, me.

I’ve recently rediscovered the code for this web site, and the poll questions and various answers. As a nostalgic trip down memory lane, I’ll be posting the AIM Poll and results sporadically for current viewers to take a look at. It’s a good opportunity for some historical research on the roots of the media machine that is mikedidonato.com. Enjoy!

Bummer Updates:
I’m feeling a bit sick today.
My final paper for Accounting is proving to be a fantastic nightmare.

Sweetness Updates:
New old AIM surveys may soon populate the Feature bar on the left.
The HoR is finally with a Realtor. I have great hopes we’ll sell it within a reasonable stretch of time.
Last night I played a scale cleanly on the guitar at 470 beats per minute! A personal best!

I have sent my request to participate in The Letter Project. If and when I receive a letter, I will document the process on this website.
