Topic: Apples or Oranges? Posted: October 12 2010 at 19:27 |
So I saw a lot of people saying: Apples and Oranges in order to express that a poll isn't between two similar bands/too different to be compared. But actually what do you prefer?

It depends; when when it comes to the fruit itself, I prefer apples. I also quite enjoy apple pie, apple crisp, etc. When it comes to oranges, the fruit itself is a bit unsatisfying and the juice is only good on occasion, or when mixed with pineapple juice. I guess my answer is clear, apples.

Anybody who prefers oranges over apples is clearly insane. The vast superiority of apples by every possible metric is so obvious that you would have to be an idiot or a Nazi not to recognize it.

Believe it or not: this poll has been done before, as Triceratopsoil correctly suspected
A serious answer this time: I prefer apples for the taste and oranges for the vitamin C.

Oranges are tasty, but most of the time you had to cut tem into pieces to eat it, and you can eat an apple entirely, so I go with apples.
In the case of drink a juice, I will go with orange juice.
BTW, both has Vitamin C.

You, my friend are getting the wrong oranges. Minneolas are easy to peel. Nice and tart, too. Plus they look like female human breasts. Just a little.

I was going to say that, and have grown tired of the repeats, and yet I still drop in and participate.

I believe apanges deserves a vote. Perhaps a hybrid apange tree should be grown.
