...I must admit defeat. What, pray tell, is a Veronica or a Betty?

Well, specifically Betty and Veronica are the two main love interests of classic everydude Archie. In general, it's a poll to ask which of the two "extremes" of love interests you prefer. "Betty" is the more traditional, dependable one, and "Veronica" is the more extreme, nonconventional one. Here are some Trek analogues to help you:

Archie Betty Veronica
Troi Riker Worf
Leeta Rom Bashir
Picard Crusher Vash
Archer T'Pol Trip

Oh, for Zarquon's sake, it's Archie! There have been umpteen Archie comic books over DECADES! Don't tell me that Canada doesn't have xerox joke comics, where they just recycle the gags every few years, changing the joker and the jokee every once in awhile. Look it up on Wikipedia.

I've heard of Archie but never read it or even seen it published.

Oh. I figured Archie came from Archer. Silly me.
