    Can we have a poll about pointless polls, please? Just a Yes/No choice on whether polls such as this one should be a continued feature on The Journal.

    @sean o’dhubhghaill: You’d also have to include options for “Maybe”, “Don’t know”, “I don’t want to vote, just show me the answer”, and my personal favourite: “If I poke a stick in the box before looking, does that upset the cat?”.
