3. No. Is it really necessary to ask such a question?
What's your point?

8. Seriously - the way some people act ...
... as if everyone in the entire world WAITS for their pronouncement on various matters, as if their opinion is akin to smoke from the chimney of the Vatican.

I work with several such folks, in addition to seeing many of them here on DU, and it gets OLD.

13. Just for the record, this is a Rhetorical Poll. I just invented it.
I ask a question, but I'm not really interested in your replies. Thus, no opportunity to vote.

16. More importantly..
Why would somebody browse a discussion forum if they're not interested in hearing what other people have to say?

That's a Rhett-orical answer.

21. Actually, hell yes. I may make politically incorrect jokes, I may speak in riddles,
but I always have a point and sometimes an ulterior point too - even if I have to be more clear about it later on...

It also brings out the best in other people too. :)

We non-retirees and non-operatives can barely read enough.

23. Yeah
My opinion of this post is that it is ridiculous. My opinion of the answer to this post is that it is ridiculous. And it's snowing outside. That stinks. Of course, that's just one man's opinion.

24. I don't know. Maybe.
The ultimate answers to every question. Really you say? Maybe. Where did I get this info? I don't know. Am I sure? Maybe. So I can avoid giving my opinion about whether or not abortion should be legal? I don't know - maybe. Now if we could only get others to use these responces instead of chiming in with dopey opinions all the time the world would be a better place right? I don't know. Maybe. :evilgrin:

25. I think only those things that your opinion needs to be voiced about.

26. How on earth do you expect everyone to care about the same things?
This is a place to advocate for what we care about and believe in. I think you want it to be a Buzz Clik forum. Good luck with that.

35. This was one poll in which "I like to vote" is a wrong answer.
Sorry.

34. Actually, it's the perfect number of choices.
Push polls are designed to corral the respondent into a given answer. This poll, however, is strictly rhetorical; a response of any kind is unnecessary and actually undesirable.
