Hideous Reviews I Never Gave

I've been stooging around all day today, and have made a horrifying discovery. 99% of the polls here are idiotic.

"Which do you like better, water or outer space?" Have you ever heard of context?

"How would you do first: - eat cereal
- kittens
- dump truck" This is moronic!

A poll should be about something, preferably something for which definite choices can be made. Not 'must be made', mind you, just can be. Giving the pollee the option of "Um, I dunno" resolves any inherent conflict. Polls should be described so that the pollee knows the point of the poll. The poll question(s) should be worded such that the answers will make sense, in context, of course.

A proper poll is spell-checked, and grammar-checked where applicable, before posting. Pay attention, idiot, I'm talking to you.

I'm going to start new poll. The question is simple: Of all the polls you've looked at, how many were worth the use of your eyeballs? Possible answers will be: 100%,
Most, A lot, Some, Surely you jest?, and None, including this one.

I'm only grateful I haven't run into a crappy-prose-posing-as-poetry formatted poll. Not that there isn't one, I'm sure there is, I just haven't run into it yet.
