    I will give the nod to the first guy because those flowers remind me of the killer vagina flowers in "The Wall."

    Hey, thanks for doing this blog all these years. I enjoy it.

    Yep, definitely Haeckel's erotic and improbable Life Forms of Planet Earth over that blathering square Van Doesburg.

    There's a case against squid guy in this match-up, but I can't really convince myself of it. SQUID GUY FOR THE WIN. and you're welcome, Doc Noisewater.

    Dang, it's a rare clean sweep in the critical community! Squid Guy romps over Van Doesburg 15-0, possibly the most devastating wins in the whole tournament to date!

    Thanks for voting, squid fans.
