Why this one divides people
The favourites all have one thing in common: they promise something. Weather on glass promises you are not out in it. A kettle promises about ninety seconds from now. Fire promises the evening is over and nothing else is expected of you. That is why the quieter, more mechanical answers still pick up serious support, since a turning page or a compressing crust of snow is the sound of you doing something rather than something being done to you. People who work with their hands almost always drift towards that second group.

In the game itself you always see a split, because a seeded baseline stands in until recorded answers outweigh it. That estimate is ours, so it is never published here as crowd data.
