Amusing survey questions

[kjstrukel]

I just love those surveys that start out with a list of things you have done in the last month like  *buy a submarine, *go skydiving -- I always get a chuckle wondering if anyone checks those!

The other question that always makes me laugh is right after I give my age (63) the question "are you pregnant?"  I realize the survey doesn't recognize my age before giving the next question, but I always grin and (if I'm feeling particularly playful) want to answer yes just to see what would happen next.  I value my cents too much to risk not getting them buy intentionally giving a wrong answer though!

I ponder my answer to the question asking if I have Hispanic Origin, because actually my great-great-grandmother was from Mexico, but the percentage is so low I just answer No (or mark white) and by this time I always stick with what I have answered in the past (even though I wonder what might have been different if I would have always answered Yes..

Sometimes a survey asks have you ridden on a flying carpet?   or have you taken a train to mars? LOL

Yeah I like those questions that make sure you are paying attention. my favorite one is, have you ever been in an accident that resulted in your death?

That's interesting, Oldbuddy.  I my great-grandfather on my dad's side was part Potowatami Indian -- I sometimes wonder if I should answer part Native Americanm -- I never do, but I, too, wonder if the results would be different if I did.

Yeah, I had one today that asked me if I had any Health Issues like Heartburn, I said NO TO ALL, and the very next questions said"You said Yes to Heartburn, now we have questions regarding Medication", LOL well I answered the best I could even though I do not use those

I think that they ask those questions just to make sure you are Human and not a Robot. They are some pretty bizzare questions.

I literally just got a survey like that. First it asked if I ever watch CNBC. I said 'never'. I don't think I even have that channel. Then it asked which of these 6 tv shows on CNBC I have ever watched. I said 'none of the above'. Then the next question says 'You said you've watched XXXX ^{(I don't remember what the show was)}. How many episodes have you watched?' Ugh, there is no zero option, so I picked one (closest number to zero?). Of course I got DQd after that, but who writes these surveys?!

I answer many of those no and still they want me to answer quwstions about those things... I do the best I can and usually get dq'd, which is no surprise

Those attention test questions are always kinda amusing to read. I have been asked if my diet is completely plastic, if I have had tea with the queen of England in the last week, among others.
