I don't like them because my answers are usually more complicated than the choices given in the polls. I tend to obsess over them, trying to figure out what the pollsters are trying to figure out, etc., etc.
My favorite poll question is a common one having to do with identfying the poll takers.
Marital status:
Single
Married
Divorced
Widowed
I get to check 3 and always do to be accurate, but also to make a statement about polls.
