I love it when some survey taking organization claims that "80% of the people want XYZ", when in reality it's "80% of the people dumb enough to take a survey want XYZ". I don't usually want what those dumb ones want either.
I remember feeling that way. I was fifteen and thought Ayn Rand was profound...
