Due to a clerical error, defective yeti has been nominated for Best Humor Website in the Business Week 2005 Best Of The Web Poll. It is currently trailing what is generally regarded to be the finest humor site in the history of the Internet, and neck-and-neck with a site about people putting remote controls on their Nebelungs.
While you are there, please vote for Mighty Goods in the category of Best Shopping Website, because Maggie once bought me brunch.
Posted on August 31, 2005 to dyThey don't check your IP address, and you can vote as many times as you want. I brought you up to 12%.

Posted by: theinsider on September 1, 2005 7:52 PMHoly Smokes Matt, you are crushing the onion. I may go back and give them a charity vote.
Posted by: chris on September 2, 2005 9:35 AMIs that the worst run online poll ever or what?
I'm glad DY is winning and all, but you'd think Business Week would have a somewhat intuitive web poll. How hard is that? They've had like 8 years to catch up with Amazon and it still looks as professional as my 8th grade BASIC IF THEN code exercise.
Posted by: thad on September 2, 2005 10:13 AMYou're at 62% and running strong!
Posted by: OrneryCuss on September 2, 2005 1:03 PM62.8% with a bullet!
Posted by: Davey on September 2, 2005 8:00 PMWell, you *are* funnier than The Onion, if the fact that I come here every day and haven't visited The Onion in months is anything to go on. And it is. Because my taste is flawless.
Posted by: Doppelganger on September 3, 2005 1:41 PMThe Onion's beautiful, but sometimes it just feels like they basically have 3 articles, and they just change the nouns all around and put it back up there...

Oh, wait. I'm not on that list anyway. Never mind.
I just voted for you 45 times in a row. There is no way you'll lose now.
