This week's poll was suggested by Viki.kdrama. What flavor of popcorn do you like the most? Obviously there's too many specific ones to count, so I just put the most common flavors as options. I visited Tokyo DisneySea last year and tried their curry flavored popcorn as well as their soy sauce & butter flavor. Very interesting...

Seems like most of us do not want the stress or responsibility

This week's poll was suggested by LazyReviewer. Maybe ruling the world is too much pressure, but what about ruling anything? You can comment below what's the limit to what you would like to rule

Looks like most people don't care, but more people are starting to prefer color over greyscale

This week's poll was suggested by our member Viki.kdrama (who I'm sure has no affiliation with that website). Does reading in color matter to you?

A surprising many of us have taken multi-year breaks in the past. I guess if you voted in this poll though, you're currently not on break

This week's poll was suggested by juliarox214. Since you started reading manga (or manhua/manhwa), what's the longest break you've taken where you didn't read anything? Can you go on without this hobby?

Most of us would choose happiness over other things. Of course we could complicate this more if we had to attach money values. People naturally interpret this with jobs

This week's poll was suggested by 8-3 and inspired by We Never Learn: BOKUBEN. Would you choose between the thing you're good at or the thing you like?

I guess there's hope for some of us to not be glued to our phones

This week's poll is also from lollylopmr. How often are you near the ball and chain of your cell phone? Is it tethered to your mind? (Although technically how often you use your phone is a different question)

Now I wonder how often people delete entries on your browser history to hide something...

This week's poll was suggested by our user lollylopmr. How often do your clear your browser's history and/or cookies? I don't think I ever clear them. (This is not asking about the cache.) I also find it really annoying when sites automatically log you out of them when you don't want them to

You people with 5000+ chapters need to touch some grass

This week's poll is about bragging rights, and it was suggested by articowl. Who reads the most? Definitely not me. I probably only read like 20 chapters a month.
