Awkardly Honest Answers to Facebook Surveys

By Adel

Facebook. Facebook is a harsh mistress. On one hand, it allows you to keep in contact with people you didn't really care about from high school. On the other, it allows shut ins to pretend they have a social life.

One of the most popular and annoying Facebook activities is the obligatory survey. We've all been slapped with them. Someone on your friends list tags you in an unnecessarily long survey. Tagging is the modern day equivalent to squealing to Joseph McCarthy. Your friend named names and now you are added to the ever expanding list of Facebook survey victims.

Have you now or have you ever had a crush on someone from your friends list?

Chances are you've filled out, at least, one of these things. What's the common denominator for every survey? Lies. That's right, we all lie. No one answers the surveys truthfully. That's the beauty of the Internet; your life is what you say it is. Liar!



But, what if someone took the time to answer each question truthfully? What if that someone was a stark raving lunatic? At the very least, it would be the most interesting Facebook survey you've ever read. And maybe, just maybe, entered into evidence at a criminal trial.
