straw poll

An extremely unorganized form of voting, usually used by self-appointed leaders when they don't have the desire to actually consider what the group wants but need to make it look like it was a majority decision.

Intramural captain: "Okay dudes, who can make it Monday to practice? Quick straw poll!" (two people out of thirty raise their hands)
Captain: "Monday it is!"
Guy #1: "90% didn't vote."
(Captain shoots Guy #1 in the face.)

draw straws

If you need to choose somebody for something, here's what to do.Count out the exact number of people that want to be chosen for something.Get some straws. Make sure they are not bendy straws, though.Be careful to only get as many straws as there are people that want to be chosen, if you get too many straws or not enough, this will not work. So anyway, get a straw for each person, but cut the bottom inch off of one of the straws. Have the group choose who will hold the straws (you can decide this also by drawing straws, but that will create a straw drawing cycle that can be endless, so I don't recommend it). The person that holds the straws moves them around in his/her hands a good deal, being careful to hide the bottom of the straws from view, and carefully mixes them around.Then, everybody grabs a straw, but the 'straw holder' has to go last, as it's possible he/she might be able to feel the length of the straws, and we want this to be fair.After everyone has finished 'drawing straws', everybody compares the length of thier straws to others, and the person who is discovered to be holding the 'short straw' is 'chosen'.

Drawing straws is a fair way to choose somebody for something.

Straw taste

When a bartender sticks the straw into a freshly made cocktail and pulls a bit out with suction to taste for quality and probably enjoy.

I got ripped off, that tender took three straw tastes of my custom drink. If she keeps it up she's not going to be able to walk.

Straw cat

A false assumption based on cowardice, which is then used as the basis of an argument in an attempt to discredit an opposing idea. So called because of the yellow stripes of the pampas cat (also known as the straw cat)

Religious fundamentalists who fear Darwin, deliberately misprepresent his ideas so that they can discredit them. Their assertion that humans are descended from monkeys is not what Darwin said, and is the flimsiest of their straw cats, with its yellow stripes boldly displayed.
