One thing that always bugs me... when you say ‘generally’, do you usually mean it in the positive, glass-half-full sense of ‘consistently’, or in the glass-half-empty sense of ‘with exceptions’?

Follow up. When you use the word ‘generally’, do you do so with the intent to detract from a given statement, to sow doubts about the statement’s truthfulness?

Last one. If someone gives you a compliment, but adds the word ‘generally’, do you then feel good or bad about it? I.e. ‘You’re generally nice’/‘You’re generally skilled’ etc

Okay, LAST last. I wanna know if being a Brit has anything to do with how ‘generally’ is used and perceived. So, are you from the UK, and how do you feel about it?

No correlation there. Interesting.

I've been thinking about this on/off since last night, lol. I really think its a perspective thing - if someone says I'm generally nice, I think I'd agree. I am, generally. It depends who it comes from I guess. AHHH.

Yeah, I wanted to ask because it always bothers me and I wanted to know if there was anything to that, or if I was merely interpreting differently. The divide is really interesting though.

Each poll has different levels of engagements and it's likely different people answering each one, but I do find it interesting that: 1. The interpreted definition was split and 2. Most people didn't intend it as a detractor 3. But most people also received it negatively
