Well, this is the third incorrect football prediction in a row

congrats to Spain of course! You deserve it a lot more than us (but I’m excited to see how salty everyone is at school today

Don't understimate my powers, it was all part of the plan
I'll come up with the next poll in the next days! Any suggestions?

How about how many different alphabets you can read (Latin, Cyrillic, Greek, Georgian, Chinese etc)

Well, that was 4 years ago, the userbase has shifted a lot since then, so we might as well!

(also I’m sure the language one has been done many times as well)

Yeah, I suppose I don't mind the repetition either after all this time.

Ready
Thank you very much Greengoop for the suggestion! Here's the new poll... How many different alphabets you can read?

Obviously I can read Latin script, then (given a bit of time) I can read Cyrillic, Greek and Hebrew (though being fairly unfamiliar with the language itself, I don't usually know what vowels go where unless there are niqqud

).

Well, I can unfortunately only read latin. I can understand some Japanese but not read or speak it

Latin, Greek, Cyrillic and Georgian for me, though I'd love to extend that list in the future!

Does Greek count if I know how to solve math problems?

Jk, I can only read Latin...

and Georgian
Probably the one I least expected to read here!

So both PluM and Hunch can insult us using different alphabets... You better have your translator ready!
Insects are supposed to be the 21st century's food, so let's ask RPC about it... What do you think about insects as food?

Everyone objects to eating insects, but to be real, if I was in a foreign country and was offered deep fried locusts I would definitely give them a try. Are they gonna end up replacing every single food mankind has ever made though? Fudgecakes no

I think I've tried deep fried locusts or dried worms in the past and they were rather uninteresting and bland, but I'm not even sure. Since I certainly didn't find them either delicious or disgusting, I'll just vote for "I've never eaten them but I'd definitely try!".

Now this is making me think of the Simpsons episode where Lisa was encouraged to try eating insects despite being a vegetarian, and felt very conflicted

People there's more than just locusts and worms here in the realm of insects, like crickets....spiders.....chocolate covered ants (don't ask where I came up with that last one)

Insects are technically animals as well, are they not?

I mean crickets might be nice, but I’d rather die than eat a worm or an ant

Hence why she was conflicted, so she gave up in the end
Also, spiders ain't insects
