Survey Time

So, as anyone on Facebook could tell you, I'm an avid taker of those stupid surveys that carried over from teenagers on Myspace and now make their way around circles of your Facebook questions. These things usually start with something like "Are you ready to get personal?" or "Okay, be 1000% honest on these questions" which, I mean, why would I take a survey if I was just going to lie anyway?! Next they basically just ask you all sorts of questions about who you last texted and who you've kissed and how many piercings and tattoos you have/had/want and have you said "I love you to anyone today" etc. Basically, they all ask the same damn things, even though most of them brag originality and depth in their opening sentence. So, as I took yet another one of these stupid things (because that's what I do when I'm bored - judge away, I don't care. It's probably one of the most normal things you've learned about me on this blog) I thought about how much of a better survey I could make, or really any carbon-based life form with two brain cells to rub together that wasn't a pre-teen girl could make. So, here it is, my own personal survey. Free for the taking (ie: I want to see this going around Facebook in the near future)

Okay, get ready for some originally. Swear on the grave of your most recently deceased goldfish that you will be completely honest in all of your answers. No goldfish? Wtf, have you never been to a fair?! Pause, go to a fair, win a goldfish, wait five to seven hours, then return, having sworn on his/her grave.
