The best reason to always include an “Other” option in your polls

  • Poll creators can’t think up every possible response.
  • Lack of an “other” option just invites the dreaded discussion
  • People like clicking buttons, any button.
  • People have thought up a meaningful response and it really doesn’t fit any of the given options
  • If you want to see the results of a poll you can’t participate in, you have to keep pushing the damn “Show Results” button, every time you revisit the thread
  • No reason is good enough to justify always having an “Other” option. Sometimes the options really are black and white.

If you make a ham or roast or some other special meat for Easter, how far in advance do you buy it?

  • The weekend before Easter. I want to make sure I get exactly what I want, even if it will be taking up space in the fridge for a week.
  • The Mon.-Thurs. before Easter. I have time to go grocery shopping on a work day.
  • The Friday or Saturday before Easter, and pray the store still has some left.

If you were Javier Bardem and the night after the Oscars the Academy stripped Will Smith of his Oscar for conduct unbecoming and gave it to you.

  • I would accept it and consider it almost as good as if I’d won it on the night.
  • I would accept it, but consider it tainted, not a “real win”
  • I would reject it. If they’re not giving it to Smith, better nobody wins it.
