Well technically Tikimug, your original post did not state your opinion, but rather you asked a question; a question is not an opinion, it's a question.

I was, however, stating my opinion. It was not meant to be an attack on your ah... question (?).

And while I agree that McDonald's makes lousy hamburgers, there have been 1.7 billion instances of people enjoying them I guess.

Well technically Bong, you're right I did ask a question. Then I answered it, with my opinion. Typically, when someone "ranks" something (ie. the best, the worst, the least, the most...) they use their opinion to form their list. One persons "best might certainly be someone elses "worst" These are usually based on their "opinions"

And technically, I am not sure how ones "opinion" could "attack" a question. I thought questions were answered. I'm pretty sure however, "opinions" could "attack" other "opinions"

Technically, one should not assume that just because 1.7 billion of something was sold, that 1.7 billion of said items were in fact "enjoyed"
