poll

[morwen]

There were 18 "Yes" answers and 8 answers of "No", giving 69.2% in favour and 30.8% against.

Now tell me what you think the question was.

[ Since the poll closed, one person has voted "No". However, I will discount that. ]

I assumed your were propositioning us all :P

[abigailb.livejournal.com]

If so the answers were quite unexpected. :)

[fluffymormegil.livejournal.com]

The question that can be asked is not the true question.

[abigailb.livejournal.com]

No prize for you!

[fluffymormegil.livejournal.com]

Yay! A No-Prize!

"Do you like polls?"

[abigailb.livejournal.com]

Not "Are you voting in this poll"?

[stuflyer.livejournal.com]

I thought it was what gfyd said.

[abigailb.livejournal.com]

In which case, I'm flattered. ;)

[qfyd.livejournal.com]

why does everyone think its gfyd?

It's Qfyd!
With a Q.

[abigailb.livejournal.com]

because livejournal underlines the q. makes it look like a g.

abigail you really need to get out more :P

thats it
the question was, - should i, abigail get out more?

:P

[abigailb.livejournal.com]

I don't think that would be advisable until I move closer than a taxi-ride away from town.

[claire-stretch.livejournal.com]

why not?

[abigailb.livejournal.com]

because i'd prefer for taxis not to be my single largest expenditure!

Are you stupid/insane/bored enough to answer this question, when you don't even know what the question is?

[zootalures.livejournal.com]

Will more people answer yes to this poll than no?

[abigailb.livejournal.com]

That means the majority would be right regardless of the answers they gave... Much like voting!

[darkstream.livejournal.com]

I assumed you were deciding whether or not to mutate into some kind of Lobster-type creature. Not a decision to be taken lightly I can assure you.

[abigailb.livejournal.com]

perhaps that is why i was asking for the advice!

[foibey.livejournal.com]

There wasn't a question. It was a question-free survey to test whether people preferred saying yes or no.

[hairyears.livejournal.com]

Is it?

[secretlondon.livejournal.com]

I presumed it was a test of our positivity or negativity. Do you have Ian Paisley tendencies etc

[abigailb.livejournal.com]

If that was it wouldn't the choices have been yes and ! ?

[annie-lyne.livejournal.com]

The question was "?".

Silly, it was in your previous post! :)

[abigailb.livejournal.com]

I like your answer best so far. But that doesn't mean its right (and that doesn't mean it doesn't).

[lady-miamew.livejournal.com]

Could it have been "Should I have a birthday party"?

[lady-miamew.livejournal.com]

Ooh ooh, was it " Should I get hair extensions/falls from cyniborg"?

[abigailb.livejournal.com]

I already know the answer to that which is Yes. The follow-on question of what sort, is not really a Yes/No question.

[grim-tim.livejournal.com]

To find out what the question is, you'll need a new computer... a computer of such infinite and subtle complexity that organic life itself shall form part of its operational matrix. That should do the trick.

[abigailb.livejournal.com]

That clearly can't be the case though, as the answer was wrong. :)

[grim-tim.livejournal.com]

Aha! How would you *know* the answer was wrong without an uber computer to tell you the question? Precisely. :P
