Which one of these is the most overrated?

Love.

Turn on the radio and chances are, you'll hear a love song including the phrases "in your arms", "with all my heart", etc.

Life for me or society's interpretation of what life is.If there was a people option I would of gone for that.

Is that the album Animals or just animals?

"Holmes, what do you conclude from this poll"?
"My dear Watson, it is elementary. The originator is deeply disappointed from a failed love affair. Now he considers life to be overrated because he is considering suicide, which I sincerely hope he will abstain from..."
"Wait, Holmes, how do you know the originator is a man? It might as well be a woman.
"My dear Watson, only the highly rational and organized brain of a man could concoct such a list; a woman would merely have acted on impulse, with perhaps the exception of irene Adler. But let me continue: He considers suicide, that's why he thinks life is overrated. He considers happiness to be overrated because he wants to play down his current unhappiness, He is not an artist of whatever kind, painter, writer, composer or the likes, else he would express his feelings in an artistic way. Since he can't do that he considers artistic expression to be overrated. I am actually pretty certain he has a kind of bureaucratic job like accountant".
"What gives you that impression, Holmes"?
"His way of making a list even in such an emotional matter makes it almost a certainty. But let me continue. That he considers love to be overrated is immediately understandable since his own love just failed".
"And why animals, Holmes"?
"His own sole companion now is his pet, which is most probably a German shepherd; bureaucratic types have a special liking for this breed. Since it can't give him the consolation he needs right now he considers animals to be overrated".
"But why sensory perception, Holmes"?
"Isn't it obvious, Watson? He considers sensory perception to be overrated because he asks himself how he could ever have fallen for the beauty of this woman, the sound of her voice, the smell of her skin, the touch of her hair, the taste of her mouth when kissing".
"Holmes, you have outdone yourself on this one".
"My dear Watson, I assure you it was nothing but a trifle".

Hmmm, I had to vote against artistic expression because kittens are just too darn cute and I can't vote against them.

Artistic expression. We adore guys who choose not to work for a living. And we feed their egos. And it's as useless an activity for the preservation of mankind as it gets.
