  • That's a long survey! I remember those old Xanga surveys. They were fun. 97,98,99 are dittos with me too. :)

  • I like online surveys when they make you think, to find out about yourself, and share with friends, or just light and quirky, but ones like this, make me think it was originated by either a stalker, wanna-be computer hacker, or an identity theft. I say that in part because of the questions asking for your schools, and favorite color. All they forgot was your grandmother's maiden name and the name of your pet. Those are questions used as prompts to remember passwords.

    paranoia aside, I think this was an odd questionaire, asking if you killed anybody. Who in their right mind would say yes, even if they had? (unless as a joke) It'd be basically providing evidence against themself if they ever went to trial.

    • Good thing I don't use any of that info for security questions and answers! Especially the "favorite" questions. My favorite color, movie, song, etc. changes all the time.

  • ok, as a sucker for surveys, I went ahead and answered it (most) on my site this morning.
