2. But, then your apathy would not be counted.

That won't do at all.

No polls allowed in H&M, though, so maybe it'll stand. I think it's the first poll in GD. Historic, so it's Current Events.

3. I only voted "I hate it" because I dont think it should put names on votes

Anonymous voting is what we strive for in elections, and it shouldnt be any different here on polls.

Its not very democratic.

Well, this is the first useless poll in GD. That has to count for something. It's also the first poll with an option to vote that Robb is a Dingbat, and that's historic as can be, I think.

I threw in the "I Like to Vote" one for old times' sake.

Still, I took too long and it wasn't the first poll on GD. I'm crestfallen, I tell you, crestfallen...

I haven't made up my mind yet on that other one so I haven't voted. This one has dingbat option so I could vote.

13. Well, it wouldn't be a proper GD poll without that one.

Or so I'm told. Now, watch: Robb will alert on it, it'll get hidden, and I'll get PPRed.

Something about H&M Purgatory for life and a list of some sort?

18. Well, I was thinking that they should have made that choice

a default in all polls, really. To honor the name or something like that.

We'll have to see. Polls are easy enough to ignore, though, so...
