Weekly Poll: Revealing comments

23 September 2007 in Human Nature, Music, Weekly Poll by Stilgherrian | No comments

If you listen closely to the conversations between you and your friends, you’ll discover tiny little phrases that reveal who you really are.

So this week’s poll — yes, I know it’s a week late, deal with it! — asks you to choose from a number of phrases the one you’re most likely to use in conversation. Go to the website to vote.

Which are the best Australian political blogs?
