Reply:Surveys are like polls--manipulated by the poller or the surveyor.


Example: 4 out of 5 dentist recommend Crest." Well...if I only survey 5 and 4 say they like it, then I have a survey quote.


Totally unreliable and made to push propaganda issues. Example: Soy milk is bad for you says...." representative for the MILK industry(cow's milk that is). Both of these are true stories-as ads or news. All BS!!


No one I've ever worked with has done that--ever!
Reply:No, I didn't - hmm that is wierd. But it's funny looking accross the office and guessing what 3 in 10 have done it. I'm looking at one I suspect right now... She gets flowers constantly... and she is single, and aint all that.
Reply:BBC must be losing subscribers and has to make up stupid stories to sell papers.





Oh -did you hear the stats about low carb diet which went to high carb to no carb.
Reply:It is sad! Just tells you how insecure these people are - the are trying to appear liked and admired. A true sign of low self esteem.
Reply:That may be a little strange, but do you wonder if these people ever re-gift the items they send to themselves.
Reply:It's probably because they wouldn't be at home when the parcel is delivered so they get it sent to work.
Reply:Well 40% of people dont beleve in 70% of statistics
Reply:No, really, those roses WERE from my ex. Seriously. I'm not kidding. No, really....
