Upvoted because Doug needs more love in this poll. Though when I think of his best guitar work, it usually doesn't come in the solo but rather during slowly building wall-of-sound songs a la "Time Trap" and "The Plan".

I love the claymation video for that song that shows Frank's fingers growing long and tickling the fretboard like some kind of tentacled creature.

wow - Thanks for posting candyoh. Was wondering how far I would have to scroll down before finding mention of the MOAS (Mother of all solos). It's almost like the members of AVClub are all a little too afraid of acknowledging their hard rock roots for this one.

The solo from "Either Way" manages to be virtuostic and amazingly beautiful all at once.

Repeat post, but yeah… Rat Tomago.

Great choice, though my favorite example of Zappa's guitar prowess remains Rat Tomago.

I was hooked from the first time I heard XXX on Beavis and Butthead, and I was not disappointed when I finally tracked down a copy of Pirate Prude.

It was Lumpy.

Mayostard or GTFO!!!

There's always a line around the building here. I don't get it either, it's just a chicken sandwich. The best thing they're serving up right now is that new super-food salad with the kale and broccoli.

Agreed. Carl's Jr. gets them right as well. Fantastic with sour cream and bacon bits.

Yassss. Culvers is one of my favorites. Those guys really get the Maillard effect.

Thanks for assuming I've never had both, natch… Also, who said anything about the sauce? To quote the lawn-mower repairman from Slingblade, In-N-Out "Makes a good double-meat burger". But it's good, not transcendent. I just don't get the over-the-top obsession.

Yeah, they also charge upwards of $12 for their average 8 inch sammie… Not cool Mike.

Shoestring potatoes are only good when fried to crispness, which almost no one bothers to do. This whole trend of soggy shoestring potatoes kissed with a whisper of truffle oil (a la Lark Burger) is so fucking pretentious.

My co-workers will go on-and-on ad naseam about In-n-Out (We can't get it here in Colorado). When I suggest that their burgers taste exactly like Sonic, why not just go there, I am met with howls of protest. Overrated is an understatement. I would describe it more as a creepy cult-like devotion.

Ear worms always seem to have a run of about 3-4 days for me. For the past two days, I've been going around singing Dave Chapelle's R. Kelly spoof "Piss on You". Suffice to say, my co-workers are annoyed.

TOGOs or GTFO!!

When you need subs, call Mr. Sub… That name again is Mr. Sub!
