1. What, in your opinion, is the greatest chick-flick of all time?
2. After 238 votes on my book’s subtitle, it ended* in a tie between “Things You Know You Were Already Thinking” and “Another Book for the Back of Your Toilet”. I’m making the final decision today. Which do you like better?
3. Do you have a blog or website? What is it?
I’ll go first:
1. The Notebook
2. Honestly, I’m not sure. I wanted “Insights from the World’s Most Trivial Man” to win
3. The Tripp and Tyler Video Storehouse
*The voting ended at 9pm last night.

1. How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days
2. the non-toilet one.
3. jaredtaft.wordpress.com (it makes tyler's blog/website look like the Don Quixote of the new millenium.)
1. You've Got Mail.
2. I maintain my original vote, which was for the toilet subtitle. Simply because I usually wasn't already thinking about what you talk about (even though it's all true) and because it implies that you keep the book handy to read at all times. But I already had a hand in the wizard license plate so don't listen to me anymore.

1. mean girls, duh
2. toilet
3. http://kbakhtiari.blogspot.com/ even though i know no one gives a crap haha

2. Toilet
3. http://www.jimmycalhoun.com
1. Sleepless in Seattle
2. Things you know–definitely
3. No, I do not, nor do I plan to. I just like reading everyone else's stuff. Yeah.
1. Teen Witch or Love Actually – it's a tough call.

2) Another book for the back of your toilet.

First off, number 1 is a trick question, for there is no such thing as a "great" chick flick. Least bad would better characterize it. It's like saying, which root canal was your favorite one? Now that that's off my chest, the chickiest flick I ever had to sit through was
1. Ever After
2. Things you Know….
3. http://breakingthrough.tumblr.com/
1. Return to Me… everyone change your answer NOW
2. you have gotten WAY to obsessed by this – I'm beginning to wonder if it is clinical
3. jaredtaft.wordpress.com
1. I agree with Steel Magnolias (mainly because its the only sappy chick flick I really like)
2. Things You Know You Were Already Thinking (not my first choice but better than the alternative)
3. jessicaclarke.wordpress.com (I'm not very good at keeping it up-to-date)
1. Pride and Prejudice
2. Things You Know You Were Already Thinking (just way excited about the book!)
3. And yes, but it's currently…under maintenance
1. Steel Magnolias (at least, it’s my wife’s favorite – The Notebook is a close second).
2. Things You Know…..
3. http://dubdynomite.com – I should have never made a resolution to start posting more, because, it’s not happening.
1. The Notebook
2. Either or neither work for me. If only I'd gotten in on the original submission. My entry would have been "Everyday Absurdities: Subtitles Fill Empty Space on Book Covers" or "Everyday Absurdities: Subtitles Exist to Support Lame Titles." Darn it all.
3. Not today, but maybe someday
1. Elizabethtown
2. For the love, Tyler Stanton, name your book the title YOU like best. It's YOUR book. (Yeah, I used caps to imply a raised voice.) But at all costs, avoid the toilet title. Your book is far funnier than mere toilet humor and as a book lover, I never buy a book with "toilet" in the title (unless it is a home improvement book) because toilet in the title implies a book that is a waste of my time and your book is NOT a waste of my time. Sigh.

Go with "Insights from the World's Most Trivial Man" and give me the external hard drive.
1. Notebook (that was awkward)
2. Toilet would go viral in my opinion
3. http://www.backyardsafarico.com – Everything Backyard
New personal blog: http://www.kojoihave.wordpress.com
1. 50 First Dates
2. I liked mine the best–and clearly the "I bet I'm funnier than you are" subtitle fits because two of our measly (I don't know how to spell that word) 7 choices were yours. But I am not bitter.
3. None to speak of but Pioneer woman is THE best blog ever. Oh, next to this one.
1. Notebook
2. Who cares what we say, it’s your book. Go with what you want. (Or mess with the results of the poll)
3. http://www.colejennette.com – Resources for worshippers
1. I gotta agree with you on the Notebook.
2. Things You Know You Were Already Thinking
3. http://www.movietheatercritic.com (nothing fancy and just getting it started)
BTW, I love Auto Tune Andy. Every time it happen across it, I have to stop what I'm doing. It's great.
1. Love Actually. I thought the Notebook was terrible, but maybe that was because my long distance girlfriend flew cross-country to visit, made me watch that with her, sat on the other end of the couch, went to bed, and then broke up with me the next day. I'm slightly jaded.
2.I'd go with Another Book for the Back of Your Toilet, as I need a new one of those. The back of my toilet is currently void of reading material sadly.
3. NerdFitness.com – A website dedicated to helping nerds and average joe's get into shape.
1. I’m with Mary Claire: Sleepless in Seattle
2. I originally went with “Manifesto” but I guess “Toilet” will have to do
3. http://www.windergahomes.com
1. Any movie my wife does not compel me to see with her is the greatest chick flick. The greatest of all that I will not watch is Pride and Prejudice. That movie proves that you do not have to experience something in order to make fun of it.
2. "Toilet"
3. http://www.thechurchofnopeople.com
1. The Matrix
2. Insights from the World’s Most Trivial Man
3. http://www.everettbracken.com – "a blog that is 1/3 as funny as Tyler's"
1. Tie between Serendipity & A Walk To Remember.
2. Things You Know You Were Already Thinking
3. felizadriana.wordpress.com
1. The Notebook (hands down)
2. I still think it should be "Things We Don't Say Out loud," but if i must choose than "Things You Know You Were Already Thinking"
3. No
1. Sex and the City (the movie) – you will experience every emotion watching it.
2. I was going to vote for the Worlds Most Trivial Man but I didn't want to hurt your feelings. Go with your gut.
3. No
1. When Harry Met Sally
2. "Yeah, I Went There."
Wait. Not one of the options? Go with your gut – Insights…
3. Nope. Was thinking I wanted to, but all these great blogs I've found now have me intimidated.
1. How to Lose a Guy in Ten Days or Notebook or Sleepless in Seattle.
2. I really don't know. I started off with toilet so I'll keep it.
