Design your own poll!

jst1ofknd thought this was worth mentioning said Sat, Nov 3rd 2018 at 11:36am ET

That’s right! Design your own poll. Include the question and each of the possible answers. Vote for your favorite.

Do it like voting for goat. Only top level polls and likes will be considered.

I then challenge meh to use a write-up for a product that would make sense with the poll. This, of course, is not binding as I have no power or influence in the land of meh. It is merely a suggestion.

Any good contest, however meaningless, needs a deadline. Let’s say one week 11-10-2018 just because I can add 3 and 7 to get the right answer (I don’t like math).

  Bacon, but that really surpasses categories such as “breakfast”.

This can be used when selling a clock …
Some states, and some individual counties, do not observe Daylight Savings Time. California has a ballot measure this election to eliminate the practice and stay on Daylight Savings Time. If the US eliminated Daylight Savings Time, which time would you prefer to reset the clocks to?
- Daylight Savings Time (stays light later)
- Standard Time (gets light earlier)
- Split the difference
- Something geeky, like adjusting noon to the apex of the sun on the winter solstice at the geographical center of the country and then adjusting accordingly across the time zones
- Nothing, I enjoy having my sleep cycle disrupted twice a year

  Self-euthanasia is possibly close to being the same thing as reading philosophy?
  
  I don’t know why people need sleeping pills. They “kan” just read Kant.
  That ought to work just as well.

What’s your favorite “fall” chore?
Raking Leaves?
Mowing until your mower runs out of gas?
Pulling out all the dead flowers?
Picking up all the dead limbs from high winds?
I did it all today. Fun.

  Kind of like the way I’d like to vote on Tuesday, if it made a difference.

Today, over on Wooterville Trolley, they have a poll, and I really miss the option of being able to comment on polls… The poll is “Favorite defunct websites” and I wanted to tell them they’d left off an option… Woot.

Ah, well. Life goes on, and I still have all of you. I’m content.
