You got all kinds of learnin' and you made me look the fool without tryin', and yet here I am with a gun to your head. That's 'cause I got people with me. People who trust each other, who do for each other, and ain't always lookin' for the advantage.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Jesse, this may be just being picky, but "discussing tv shows in Natter excludes me from the discussion" was ambiguous at first read. Could we break that question into 2 parts: excludes me from the tv discussion, and from discussing something else while the tv discussion is going on.

Because the latter was how I usually felt about it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Sure, I'll edit, even though I think the upshot is "I don't want TV discussions in Natter."

Oops -- I take it back because people have already voted, so I don't want to add choices.

Eh. No big. I think you're right about the upshot of it.

Snerk. I'm now amused that, in addition to anything else it might reveal, the poll also tangentially reveals that Buffistas are downright compulsive about selecting the "Ticky Box" option, if available.

Oh, I picked "ticky box" because there was no "none of the above" option, and I wanted to be counted as a non-excluded-but-still-interested poster.

Ditto. Because my answers depend on the show, the type of show, my level of investment in the show, when the show airs, when in the season it is, etc.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I picked Ticky Box because I don't feel excluded, so much as I feel that discussion/squee of a tv show can squelch discussion of anything else while it's going on.

Yes, this.
