| Rather than 'the poll is flawed' try 'the premise has a problem’ or 'there is something wrong with this method of information gathering.'  Or some such rephrasing.

Honestly I think there are just too many useless polls. *shrugs*

I don't see how anyone can get tired of a good jest. ( The farmer's daughter, the bartender, the rabbi, the priest and the duck agree with me on this point. ) |

| I'm pretty sure he was being sarcastic. But my hand's up for latin. It'll sound smarter, and less annoying. And won't clash the eyes so much. Hopefully. |

the loophole doesn't involve any translation either.

Come 'on Inq, think. Outsmart us all, and do it with style. |

Yea! Three cheers for downunder! Yea! Happiness all around! | You realize that nothing on this earth could prevent Inq from saying "ITS FLAWED" in a b!tchy way  . NOTHING. That's possibly the only reason he joined the forums. Imagine him arguing with a ref...(That call is flawed, his touch was flawed, that blackcard for verbally assualting the ref is flawed...) |

| Haha! Following me around the site...
And this is a "goddamn it! Why do they always say it is flawed" thread. Not an Is It Flawed one. Therefore, mine isn't redundant. Because it is slightly different. |
