Are polls useless?

Do you think polls useless?

[DK]

*noes*

[James_Potter]

...maybe....

[Spudman]

If we didn't have light POLES then where would we hang our lights?

[abbabibble]

or snow POLES, then the plow would chew up my lawn!

(oh no... i think i've started something... oh boy...)

that would depend on what u wanted to achieve with the poll
if u tried to end world hunger by posting a poll asking
"Would u like to end world hunger?"
"Yes"
"No"
then i would suggest that yes, that poll is rather useless

if u want to gather some fun info from a non-neccesarily-statistically meaningfull sample, then no, the poll would not be useless
it can be a lot of fun and have led to some fun threads on these fora

if u're trying to stop people from posting polls with this poll, i will respectfully suggest that your poll, in a self-fullfilling vortex or logical prophecy, is useless
if u simply want Harper and Yoopers to swop Teddy Bear recipes (probably by page three), u might be onto a good thing

I don't have a recipe for Teddy Bears that I'll make public. The one we have has been in the family for generations.

I do keep a box of Roadkill Helper and Spotted Owl Helper on the shelf for those ever so special times when nature provides the evening's dinner.

[yoopers]

Then if it's been a dry season for all natural dinner ingredients, I rely on the canned backups on the shelf.

so, would a microwave work for both of the first two steps? I am in a college dorm, and they don't allow open fires OR battle axes, so I think the microwave is my only option

on second thought, maybe I could use a unicycle as a bludgeoning type weapon, and skip step two (since it is optional)

The world's first kerosene lamp and oil well were built in Poland in the mid 1800's. The WWII standard mine detector was invented by a Pole, and during that same war the Polish army cracked the Enigma code. The first Polio vaccine was discovered by a Pole. The Q-tip (y'know, that thing you stuck too far inside your ear?) was invented by a Pole. The first American Nobel Prize winner in sciences was a Pole: Albert Michelson.

Half my family are Poles, and from them descended one kick-ass unicyclist... would you reconsider your statement or do I have to stomp you?

[DarkTom]

Who's this "kick-ass unicyclist" in your family then?












Only joking, I've never met you or seen you ride. Just remembered a dig you had at me once.....
