When you participate in an online poll, do you guess what the poll result will be in your head before looking at the results?

I always do…trying to figure out if I’m in the minority or the majority

Yes.

I would be shocked if someone didn’t.

All the time, and yes, I get insulted if my answer isn’t in the popular answer bracket. One time I took an online poll and my answer was in the 1% bracket :( DEJECTED!!

Being in 1% company sounds like really good news to me.

I do, and I’m always insulted if I am in the majority. definitely not happy about being considered one of the more popular types. Popularity is over-rated. Hard to stand out from the crowd if you are part of the crowd.

I always hope it’s whatever I answered. Then I feel cool when it is and bummed when it’s not what I said.

I don’t try to guess, but I always hope it’s this and not that… :)

I usually guess. Sometimes I’m right, and sometimes I’m wrong.
