[Closed] Todays' poll - I don't agree (again)

I can't vote cos I've done all of them except mail order.

I voted based on my last purchase as life is too short to worry about little formalities.

Just showing a lack of forethought from the people who run the site.

I went for the pattern that I have done more than the others over time. I suppose adding the word "mostly" would fix it.

Number two. Think it'll always be that way for me.

It’s just a bit of fun not a serious poll.

I did wonder if it influences potential marketing. But if it's fun then crack on.

I suppose anyone not an LBS counts as mail order. But I think have done all or most in the past.

jesus christ, its a chuffing poll. of little or no value at all.

get over it.

Sidebar polls are always shit. We even have one at work, and that’s always shit, too.

Fortunately none of the pages I visit on this site have the poll on them, so I only get to hear about it when someone whines about the fact that it’s shit.

🙂

Please add to all future polls:
"Ken Dodd’s dad’s dog's dead" option so folk realise it's just a bit of silliness

How do you buy your bikes?

• Always in bits, secondhand

• Always in bits, with new and used parts
• Piece by piece, but with new bits
• Complete at my bike shop
• Complete by mail order
• It varies depending on what I’m buying but over time I have used all the above

• With balls of steel, some bolt cutters and a battery powered angle grinder

Just showing a lack of forethought from the people who run the site.

It's a poll to fill up some space in the sidebar. Sometimes we use them seriously if there's something we want to find out. Other times we make stuff up for fun. See 'Ken Dodd's Dad's Dog's dead' for example.

Good grief!

Also..
If there's a poll and there's no suitable option in there for you to choose because your particular circumstances are not covered by the poll then feel free to exercise your right to not vote in the poll. It really doesn't matter.

Could fill the sidebar with a list of pointless whinges of the day. We could vote for our favourite.
I'm going with neighbo(u)rs complaining about dogs that aren't even home as today's bestest.

It's pretty rubbish to leave out the "full bike second hand" option though.

As somebody that contributes nothing but my comments to the forum, I demand better, or my money back.

IT DOESN'T MATTER!

Anyway..
New Poll

But what if Ken Dodd’s dad had TWO dogs?

Dear STW,

I find  the  large number of pointless polls that I'm urged to participate in by your world wide web computer page extremely taxing.

I am 83 years of age and should be enjoying the twilight of my life unmolested by your cynical information gathering agenda.

I was also sorry to hear the sad news about Ken Dodds' Dads' dog.  I'm so glad that  Roger Moore and Joe Cocker are still with us.

Yours Sincerely

Today’s poll

I very much enjoyed voting in the new poll.
