This is assuming everyone listens to the show at the same time, which is obviously not the case. Of course, I guess I am assuming everyone votes immediately after listening to the show which is also obviously not always the case.

Like I said. Obviously.

I could definitely do without the background laughter. Don't "hate it" but my preference would be to do without it.

but only when i feel i can. if it's totally show related and i don't know what it's about, i'll wait until it's relevant to me. in this case, vote cast, show listened to.

I don't believe my poll votes have ever been swayed by show or forum discussion. That being said, I probably only vote on half the polls, if it's something I don't care about, or something silly (like which intern let the dogs out, or how I feel about some actress being on twitter) I don't vote.

[Junkenstein]

yeah, id rather not vote than voting just for sports.

Not for nothing, but I did enjoy learning that Lucas let the dogs out.

I wouldn't sat I hated the laughter, but I did find it a bit annoying. It actually made me stop laughing at some parts. I'd find something funny, start to laugh, hear a cackle, and I'm over the joke because now I'm annoyed.

Once in a while it wouldn't matter to me, but it happened a LOT through the episode.

I like the laughing, especially the long lucas laugh. I can laugh at the joke, and then laugh at the fact that he's still laughing. It's like the buy one get one free of laughter.
