GTP Cool Wall: The "Meh" Option

[TheBook]

The results thread had a bit of a discussion going on about this particular poll option. Here's the place to voice your opinion about it.

 

[Famine]

I was going to vote for "Meh"...

 

[Stotty]

Keep it, or replace it with something else, doesn't really matter as long as there is an option for those cars that one considers neither cool nor uncool.

When I think of Meh, I'm thinking "whatever, I don't care" (which is how I always use it). A better idea would be to have it be "Undecided" and be placed at the bottom of the poll. If it's in the middle, I regard it as part of the legitimate poll answers and thus should be counted.

 

[TheCracker]

It should be counted. There are plenty of cars that for whatever reason are neither cool nor uncool. Doesn't mean the voter is undecided. If you have no opinion on a car then there's no need to vote on it.

 

[buickgnx88]

That was my original thinking for the meh option really. I think it was actually fine before the meh option since it forced people to choose a counted option, or just not vote at all. Of course, it didn't stop them from explaining why they didn't vote in the thread.

That. And by simply not voting, you also leave yourself the option to visit the thread again in X amount of hours and vote for an actual option, should you have some sort of cool wall related epiphany.

Many cars are just "Meh", and it's impossible to describe them better.

 

[Philly]

I say keep it. I usually use it for cars that are so lacking of any kind of personality that they just can't be cool or uncool. Like a Camry for instance.

Personally, if I can deem a car as 'meh' it's generally going to be so bland that it's uncool. See example of Camry, most things Vauxhall, etc. Just my 2nd cent.

 

[Philly]

I just feel like there are some cars that are so boring that you completely over look them. Some cars you look at and say 'that's an uncool car' but for others like the Camry, if you see it on the street, you don't even notice it, which would make it a 'meh' car for me. So really the 'meh' option is even worse than the uncool one just because it might as well simply not exist.

 

[Jondot]

So maybe it needs to stay, but be positioned elsewhere in the grid (so to speak). Like Lord Kelvin's Ice Box, but with an appropriately dull name. Milton Keynes or summat.

The Ben Stein Ward?

 

[TheBook]

The Non-Fantastic Garage of Todd Twiltson?

 

[Jim Prower]

Keep it and make it part of the results. It's not THAT hard...

 

[Omnis]

I think the problem is that there are no degrees of meh like there are cool or uncool.

But if you asked me what I thought of that problem: Meh.

 

[Irons]

What do you mean by "with modifications"?

 

[TheBook]

What do you mean by "with modifications"?

Making it a legitimate section of the wall, changing the name or definition, things like that.

 

[Nicksfix]

Meh + nothing to get excited about,just an average car ?
