Popularity rank 11 #107. Survey result graphics on MySpace

February 20, 2006

DAN: Look what I put on our MySpace page.... I took a survey, see, I'm 45% redneck. And, here, of all the Muppets, I'm most like Gonzo. Ha! I bet our fans love this stuff....
RONI: We don't have FANS, Dan. And unprofessional crap isn't helping us get any.
DAN: Melanie's sort of like a "fan".
RONI: Your little crush came to ONE show. And she could give a fuck about which Golden Girl you're most like.
DAN: I bet Melanie's very interested to know I'm a "Rose"!
DAN: And I don't have a CRUSH on her.... "Dorothy"....

RONI: Yeah, I know. I set up our other one, John.
JOHN: You see, Roni, MySpace is an online social "network"....
