I don't remember seeing what part of the country/world you live in as being part of the rating though, did you? I really hate it when you can't get a good statistics on some things though. But, then again.....there would have to be a thorough research.
Yeah, the survey means well, but when you break it down it's just some random thing on the internet.

Hahaha, yeah, I've gotten the "OMG Toaster is a guy" before, but I hadn't gotten the "OMG Toaster is black" before. It does lend some credence to whenever I talk about race though, since I get flak from both blacks and whites due to my mixed heritage.

FYI: I think Shesus and NgDawg are the only ones that make a practice of having their avatar actually be a picture of them... and even that isn't 100%. I will say that I'm 100% of the people that use a picture of a porn chick shoving a toaster down her panties.
