    How much a contrarian are you?

    How often you intentionally take an opposite position to other people just to annoy, anger, irritate, or just because you are in a foul mood?

    As opposed to ( ) you taking an unpopular position because you conclude that is the correct position after much thought and analysis?

    I know everything I say is right so I just don't worry about it.

              This poll is not clear : I can be intentionnally contrarian when I know I am right, AND intentionnally contrarian on other issues to annoy or irritate etc: this can result certain days in 100% contrarian postures, most of them with good faith of course.
              Statistical anomaly.

                Coincidence that only one person voted for "I am not intentionally contrary"?

                    Just to annoy - not often. But it happens

                      Never, I always say what's on my mind... Just so happens that it offends or irritates people, because they know I speak the truth...

                          I am not intentionally contrarian, and I am contrarian all the time.

                            I voted 81%-99% Just because no one else had. Although those numbers are probably correct when talking to my mother.
