I'd have thought it would be taken as rhetorical as opposed to a genuine poll. Guess this is the pitfalls of ambiguous wording though...

There is nothing ambiguous about your wording, as you clearly establish things as a challenge, which is only going to make most of us automatically raise our guard.
It's not a big deal, of course, as you're just posting a link to a song, but people generally don't respond well to being told how they should react to something. I understand you're just expressing enthusiasm about a song you love, but be aware that you didn't kick things off in the most inviting manner.

I think too much is being read into a glib post.
It was basically my drunken OTT way of saying "have a listen to this, I think it's good".
Ambiguity dissolves if you take the technical dictionary definition of the words used, but rhetoric kind of involves using subtle context (admittedly, mine being my own thoughts at the time, which only I was privy too) to dull the direct meaning of language if it's obvious no direct response was required. To me it was, to others it isn't - hence ambiguity.

Anyway, it's a good song (IMO), faetal, I liked it.

Nice. I'm not exactly a fan of spoken monologues over music, but that's quite fitting.

Also nice. That's a cool ambient track.
Goddamn, that's one of the most depressingly beautiful things I've heard in a while.

So, I see that, next to not liking any games, you don't like any music either? Typical of you to go
