Kids book. I was born and raised with that one. Every single second of it was non-stop hilarity.

Well, as the 50% more insane Black Metal, I'll go with kids book beacuse I think virus was slightly better than it. If it comes down to those two in the end, I'll probably go the other way. I'm really weirded out by the fact that japanese cartoon and dragon aren't on here.

kids' book. It's an email that will make you laugh no matter how many times you see it. Basically, it never gets stale, unlike the other funny ones that were funny in the beginning but they are now meh (like boring (really)).

Well, army and virus are very funny, but after 2 to 3 views the hilarity of it all starts to wear off and you can watch it all the way thru with a straight face. So basically, it was a fight between kids' book and caffiene. I chose caffiene, because I think seeing caffienated Strong Sad is funnier than the drab vocal stylings of SB in kids' book. Still, I love them both dearly. It was a hard choice. I may vote kids' book in the finals, even if caffiene makes it.

I can't remember my legs!!! :sad: Caffeine is dearest to my heart and higher in my ranking, but since Kids' Book and Virus are both in my top 10 as well I wouldn't be disappointed if any of those 3 won. Army is very good too but overrated.

I voted for army. kids book grates on me because of gratuitous homsar, virus is better but it relies on the other e-mails for humor, and caffiene is kinda creepy. army is funny, and it can stand on it's own

Kids book. It was able to summon one of my father's Category Ten howls, and although he has a good sense of humour, not many things can provoke such a response. The e-mail was able to do the same for me, as well, standing as one of the funniest things I've seen.

Best one:

Some people are about to be run over.
Frankie has about five seconds.

Is it possible the email I voted for is winning?
I'm starting to think the two winning emails are equal in quality. Wouldn't it be easier to just end this now with whatever wins here? What purpose will the next round serve?

I voted for Virus. But I didn't really think twice. Now that I think about it... all of them sound good. Caffeine? Salad as a rock. Kid's Book? No two people are not on fire. Army? I'm not sure if there is a goodminton... Virus? Now that I think about it... virus wasn't very good, joke-wise. It was just hilarious by being random.

Well, the four choices for this round are army, caffeine, kids' book and virus. The last two are winning, so we'll pretend they get through to the next round. So anyway, in this round, people may like army over all the others. But next round, if army doesn't get through to the next round, people who voted for army have to vote for kids' book or virus, so the results are more fine-tuned.

I voted for Caffeine, with Kid's Book as an EXTREMELY close second. Still, Caffeine has Strong Sad acting all hyper. "I feel great! I feel great! I feel great! I feel bad. I don't even watch football! I don't even watch football! I can't remember my legs."

Army is good, but overrated.

Virus is pretty funny, but it, too, is overrated.

Kid's Book is AWEXOME. It's only slightly...um...not as good as Caffeine, and it's probably the most quotable thing on the entire site. "Everyone is different. No two people are not on fire. Awwwww."

I love "kid's book." I love that email. Every moment of it is hilarious, and I quote it all the time.

I voted Caffeine, although that and Kids' Book are pretty close in my book. I'd say, so to speak, Kids' book is "greater" than Caffeine, but I personally like Caffeine more, and that's what this is about.
You gotta admit, we all loved to do that- take a book you do'nt need and draw pictures over it. Most of us boys would do mustaches, but it takes someone as legendary as TBC to make it that imaginative. Hmm....while we're at it, in the corner of one of my old spelling books, I'd draw a moustache on the guy there, sinec it was the same on every page. My friend drew a different one each time. However, I made it steadily grow into a beard or whatnot and change shapes, and by the end of the school yearr, I had a flipbook!

I feel weird, I never liked Caffeine. At all. Out of the above, I think my avatar makes it pretty obvious which I'll choose. :mrgreen:
