      Maybe you should start a 'Who is king of the polyhedrons?' poll. I'd vote in it for sure.

        Qualified in what respect?
        How is it more qualified than the two-dimensional outline of, say, a carrot?

          If you don't like it, vote for something else
          While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

            I did. I voted for the hexagon as I'm a fan of Bob Holness and Blockbusters.

            So that's why I think by having the circle in there you are taking the p, please Bob..

              The circle, while not strictly a polygon, is what happens when you take the idea of reglar n-gons to it's logical limit. It trancends polygonism to acheive geometric perfection, and in doing so introduces us to the mystery of Pi.

              Only a madman would liken it's beauty to the outline of a penis shaped vegetable.

                I'm rather annoyed that I've ommited the koch snowflake.

                  You can never transcend polygonism. And my fifteen wives would each agree!

                    All of those options are regular polygons. Sounds like prejudice towards the irregular to me.

                    I prefer a good concave polygon myself.
                    Will work inside IR35. Or for food.

                      Can we vote for non-euclidean geometry shapes in n dimensional space?
