Are You Tired of Surveys/Polls?

I am asking for everyone's opinions of whether or not they are tired of people taking surveys and polls.Please everyone weigh in on this subject.I think we should just do away with all technical matters and just talk and stuff...or,like, whatever.

It doesn't bother me. The irony is that your post is technically a "Survey".

They don't bother me. I only take them if I am interested in the subject.

I do kind of wonder what someone expects when they ask opinions on what to do with their truck. 99% of the time it sounds like they already have their mind made up; is it just for validation?

Participation is purely your choice.

I don't mind them. Regardless of how good you think an idea is there is always someone else out there who may have a better one or may have been though something you haven't. Ben Franklin said "experience teaches a dear school" and he was right...

I don't mind polls except for all the questions. Now telephone poles are another subject.
As for Surveys, I question their validity. Another thing about Surveys, Whats up with all the sticks?

How come you didn't set this up as a poll so we could vote on it.

I don't mind polls or surveys unless they are political, or over the phone, or ask questions. Other than that, they are fine....I think.

Polls are fine; it beats standing in the sun while waiting to vote. Surveys would be OK if the theodolite didn't keep falling over.
