how about a "none of the above" choice?

just wondering how other members think, not trying to change anything
doesn't take much to figure out a pic with a chick showing her stuff is gonna win out over just about anything else
many of these pics are: can I have my click back?

basically it comes down to how much you can get away with

First you have to understand the mentality of many of the members in here, sex sells, plain and simple.

I just played for 5 minutes... I don't geddit. Turns out that about 90% of my choices were for the "leader", whatever that is.

So what do I win?

And HTH do I decide between a picture of someone's tires and an illustration showing boundaries of property someone's intending to buy?

Never even saw a single TLH-worthy picture, either.

I want my nickel back

I got crap like that, too. WTF?

Maybe I'm just old and don't get it.

After extensive research on the matter (i.e., I clicked on the first relevant link Google returned for "picture battle"), I found another way to play:

Someone posts a picture as a challenge.
Next poster submits a picture that in some way responds to or trumps the previous picture
Next poster submits a picture that trumps THAT picture.
And on it goes.

For example:

1. picture of the sun
2. sunscreen
3. pretty girl with tan lines
4. dried up 80 year old who tanned too much
5. strip of fried bacon
etc.

So here's my challenge, in the spirit of Halloween:
