Interesting responses to the mundane poll. I'm among the 8% so far who say "think" versus the vast majority who say "thing". See this from https://grammarist.com/usage/another-think-coming/: Another think coming is the original form of the colloquial phrase aimed at someone who has a mistaken view. It comes from the old comical expression, If that’s what you think, you’ve got another think coming. The site goes on to give examples but notes that "thing" is now more common. Doesn't make it right, though - jus' sayin'

Again, I implore you, please link to the poll or at least let us android users know what it is so we know if we can be arsed closing the app, opening up a browser, opening substack, finding the newsy, scrolling down... SIGH. Or maybe just even acknowledge that I've been sending these requests and you're "looking into it?" I can't be the only android user who reads SYSCA. I know you're a small team, but acknowledgement means so damn much.
