I'll somehow recover from the blow.
There is some theoretical sense in which the fact that right now the "nobody loves Dave" answer is tied with "Extremely important" helps.

At the moment, "nobody loves Dave" and "the fate of the cosmic commons is at stake!" are running neck and neck. I suggest leaving it up to Omega.

"nobody loves Dave" has now edged out "the fate of the cosmic commons is at stake!" by one vote. Of course, if I take the weighted average, that still works out to a way higher evaluation of my personal significance than seems at all justifiable. Is it possible people aren't all being entirely sincere in their votes? Nah, that's crazy talk.

If it's any consolation, I only voted for that one because it was funny, not because I thought it was true.

I wuv you :3
