2. He could edit his poll

35. my son
:rofl: when my youngest was going through his very brief, white, rural-small-town-boy gangsta phase, he was using a shortened version of his first name spelled "_ _ $ _ the great" (letter S replaced with $ and other letters left out by me for his privacy)

he had it for an e-mail address for a long time
