Words of wisdom. "Let's face it. Unless there's a web site called "www.oh-by-the-way-we-have-darla-stashed-here.com," we're out of luck".

Excellent fan site marketing ploy.

As much as it killed me, I had to give it a title otherwise it'll confuse our RSS subscribers something chronic.

Simon | November 28, 03:50 CET

Thanks Simon, wasn't sure.

feelinglistless | November 28, 03:54 CET

I love the interweb.

gossi | November 28, 03:58 CET

Hah! That little poll at the bottom is gold.

Looks like a tight race between the Cavemen and the Astronauts. Go Cavemen!

Had to be done. Good work.

gt_jen | November 28, 05:08 CET

That's great!

Invisible Green | November 28, 05:28 CET

Thanks for the fix Simon!!!!!!!!!

I use the RSS feed. I don't like being confused.

leenah | November 28, 05:29 CET

Ack, yes, that explains why my site's stats just spiked through the roof. That site links to mine (and incidentally, I have the "darlastashedhere" domain name sans dashes).

chasa | November 28, 05:36 CET

Astronauts all the way. We're talking elite Air Force personnel, here.

jlp | November 28, 05:38 CET

Oh it's cavemen by a mile - astronauts are nerdy, unarmed, and very well mannered.

gingeriffic | November 28, 05:56 CET

I gotta go with the astronauts. Most of the pilot/commander astronauts are military pilots, many test pilots. And they're incredibly intelligent (most of them have the equivalent to at least a masters, PhD if it's an X-plane, in the aircraft they test) and less than well mannered when not in public.
If you just go with the mission/payload specialist, those guys are all PhDs, which means they spent more time in college than some people spend being alive. Combine that with the intelligence factor again and they'd Macgyver their way into complete dominance over the cavemen anyday.

Go Cavemen!

Salocin | November 28, 06:11 CET

That made my day.

Favorites!

Alex2459 | November 28, 06:53 CET

Thanks for the link. I'm a huge Darla fan.

Feelinglistless, I love your name. Very clever.

Oh, and cavemen.

Reddygirl | November 28, 06:54 CET

Astronauts totally know how to *cough* bypass cookie-dependent voting restrictions.

zeitgeist | November 28, 07:00 CET

Totally off topic, but Matt just used Anya's joke from "Restless" in tonights episode of Studio 60. You know the one: a man with a duck on his head walks in to a doctor's office.....

Arabchick | November 28, 07:19 CET

Astronauts are tiny people who can fit in small spaces, they are not muscle bound because they lift weightless stuff all day long, but cave men have to fight to survive every day of their lives. So I'm convinced that without weapons the cavemen will crush them.
And I love the interweb too!

John Young smuggled a corned beef sandwich aboard a Gemini rocket. He was smart and willing to break rules. I think astronauts win.

Lioness | November 28, 07:49 CET

Mal's an astronaut. Jayne's a caveman. Case closed.

Craig Oxbrow | November 28, 08:21 CET

Craig for the win.

Lady Brick | November 28, 08:55 CET

A man with a duck on his head? You mean the Duck Man?

/Discworld

VeryVeryCrowded | November 28, 09:01 CET

Cavemen. No! Astronauts. No! Cavemen. No! Duck Man!

Imagine what would have happened had this site been put up a long time ago. Angel et al. would have checked for that website, and prematurely (by three years) Angel would have started obsessing over the cavemen vs. astronauts question, without Spike around.

*Angel has cord wrapped around Lindsey's neck.*
LINDSEY: I promise! I'll tell you where Darla is!
ANGEL: Yeah, I don't care about that anymore. Just one question: who do YOU think would win?
etc.

WilliamTheB | November 28, 11:38 CET

Astronauts totally know how to *cough* bypass cookie-dependent voting restrictions.

Yes, yes they do ;).

(but then I guess cavemen know how to 'bypass' the bypassers. Hint: it involves clubs ;)

Saje | November 28, 14:17 CET

Hehe, very clever. In a 'damn, I wish I had thought of doing that' kinda way. Definately brought a smile to my face on this miserable November morning.

Technopagan | November 28, 14:28 CET

It's also worth pondering just what kind of cavemen we're dealing with, here. Neaderthals? Cro-Magnon? Australopithecines? There are significant physical and mental differences spread over some 10 million years of hominoid evolution.

jlp | November 28, 16:20 CET

Ha! great idea - and astronauts all the way, I'm with Craig's definition.

The Do That Girl | November 28, 16:50 CET

Everybody knows that cavemen would always win out over those namby pamby self analyzing astronaut wankers ;)

That was cute, thanks feelinglistless.
