Some debates are worth having. One that always amuses me is what the tagline at Oliver Willis' site should actually read. If for some reason you're not aware of OW's tagline it is, "Like Kryptonite To Stupid."
It's time to put all the variations that have been mentioned to a vote.
First we need to get a definitive listing of all the best variation. Nominate your favorite or make up your own in the comment section by Monday evening.
Tuesday I'll put the 10 best taglines up for a vote.
