These three have been vying for dominance for all of my adult life -- and beyond! I think it's time we settled this one for good and all, don't you? Vote away!

Well, I'm fond of some of Oates's work, but "Where Are You Going, Where Have You Been" can't prevent or help alleviate yeast infections, so I'm going with strawberry yogurt for my imaginary vagina's sake.

Ooh, I think you'll find that strawberry yogurt is against doctor's orders. Especially the kind with fruit at the bottom! You'll still be better off applying Joyce Carol Oates to your supposedly imaginary vagina.

Strawberry yogurt, but I'd prefer blueberry.

I'll vote for the 12 Tone Scale, but only if one of them is Tone Loc.

Strawberry yogurt is a metaphor for Bendis, right? Bendis can go to hell.

I've only read one Oates story; Martyrdom was creepy as all hell

I like strawberry yougurt, but i can't eat as much of it anymore

I love music, so i'll pick the 12 tone scale

Of the three, I have to go with Joyce.

She's a hell of a writer.

You don't HAVE to go with her. That's the beauty of the whole thing.
Freedom of Joyce.

You're really feeling your Oates, tonight, Pol.

Much to atone for.

Strawberry...something.

By the way, the best way to catch a strawberry?

A pun-net.

Oh berry me not in the fecund fields of Joyce.










Sung to the opening string of Webern op. 13.

Your actions here tonight are pun-ishable by death!

Death by allergies, probably. Strawberries will get me everytime. They probably hum Darth Vader's march in 12-tone scale while they do it, it's that eeeeeevil.

Which leaves me Joyce. But she's fully capable of sitting in the corner and leaving me alone, so all's good.

Oh, you haven't seen her come out of the red corner at full tilt.
