Poll question: What is THIS poll question about? In other words, what's the topic?

1. The first question is about itself. The second question is more difficult...
I think that the answer to the second question is that the topic is about the first question.

-----
In case you care, I just started typing what I thought about your questions, though my current final answers are above.

Your query has two parts: 1) What is THIS poll question about? and 2) In other words, what's the topic?

Since you capitalized the word "this" in the first question, it seems to exclude all other questions, including the proceeding one. Though if I consider this to be true, the proceeding question either looses it's context (which seems silly since it is in the same subject line as the first query), is meaning less (though I can understand it), is the same question in disguise (though it could not be understood without the first question), is not difficult at all (I am feeling very hot and groggy right now), or something else.

2. Like most of your other polls, it's about something you read in another thread.
I would guess this one would have to be based on the frequent claim that your posts are largely nonsense.

3. I guess it depends on the meaning of the word "about"

and probably it depends on the meaning of the word "is." (Not to mention the problem of what the word "this" means).

I recommend this answer option for you: "If it's convenient to choose a particular answer option, then it's about that answer option."

4. This is "meta Boojatta." No. There is no Boojatta. There is only Zuul.

15. Picked one!
You selected: It's about deciding which replies are on-topic and which are off-topic.
Click here to confirm your vote.

I do not have an off-topic topic to talk about, and there is not much of an on-topic topic in this poll for me to write about either. So I think I am wrong in both cases. See, is my comment off topic or on topic? I do not care and no one else should any way.


Off topic:
I used to watch Monty Python a lot, and think John Clees (sp) could answer this poll much better than I could - we might get a new funny walk or something out of it.

On topic - here's another Kick

I'll give myself an A and an F - and another cup of coffee.

Peace
