    What about my favorite flavor, liver-onion?

    I suspect the use of crayon on the survey may tip them off.

    So, Calvin was a pre-internet troll? Interesting.

    Recently I made an appointment with a urologist, and the gal on the phone asked me, after apologizing for having to ask the question, what my race was.

    I answered, “Indianapolis 500.”

    The silent pause from her was deafening…

    For “Race”, I always put Human.

    I do something similar when I register. I use a different middle initial. This way I can tell which companies are selling my name to whom.

    I do a pretty good job ignoring ads on web sites. I’ve never bought anything as a result of a web ad or email and I’ve been on the web as long as it’s been in existence.

    I also don’t buy things as a result of TV ads.

    If I’m interested in buying something, I’ll research it myself.

    A couple of years ago, I was using a GMail account for only one thing, as a valid email address for sites that required one to allow you to register with them. Then Google made some GMail decision I didn’t like, so I tried to cancel the account, propelling me on an hours-long adventure that finally forced me to install Chrome just so I could quit GMail! So spam isn’t the only problem to contend with out there!

    I do the same as other people here: I have a free email account, and I give that address to most companies so all my spam goes there. I only check it once a week or so. I trust very few companies enough to give them the email address that I check daily.

    For all of you who responded to my “urologist” comment, a sincere Thank You!

    I was indeed asked for my race, and out of curiosity, I did a search for the prostate later that morning, and much to my surprise, men of the black race are significantly more likely to develop prostate cancer than whites. I am guessing this might be the reason for the question. BTW, I am white!

    Now you all know…

    Calvin is addicted to doing unusual or bad things.

    That’s why I participate in online surveys… except I give them honest, accurate opinions (when they give me the option to do so).

    I just found out that our local library keeps Calvin and Hobbes in the Nonfiction section. My world just turned upside down.

    Is it sad I made a Survey Monkey account just so I could put answers like that?

    When they asked how much I had spent (approximately) in the last year or so on clothes and shoes, I told them $12 (I think) and $22 respectively. Completely true—I was unemployed and got a great deal on a blazer and 2 pair of shoes. I enjoyed the thought of how I skewed their data!

    I work in tech support. We live and die by quality surveys. However, the company throws out the very lowest and very highest scores.

    That means weird answers do not skew the data. BUT they do make being the quality auditor really funny so keep doing it.
