Is this a joke site?

Great, so the US acts like an asshole and some countries disagree, and thus must be punished? It doesn't make sense. If anything, boycotting should be reserved for organizations that are fucking you in the ass, like the phone company or Microsoft. But seriously, boycotting somebody because they don't agree with heavy-handed shit like invading countries that haven't like, attacked you or anything, sheesh.

What fucking pisses me off is the boycott of Canadian goods. This fucking war has gotten so bad that people take the Black and White stance, there is no middle ground. If you aren't with us, you are against us. Hence its just fine to attack Canada like we have been doing. That fucking disgusts me. :evil:

One can get whatever results they want from a survey by asking the right people. Besides which, a lot of people consider it their civic duty to lie on surveys.

Surveys are indeed somewhat unreliable, although one would require some sort of countervailing evidence before simply dismissing this.

In college I lied on surveys just for giggles. Sometimes there would be a survey at the door of the career fairs and a survey at the end. I usually went in Chinese and came out Black, Im white.

I recently participated in a phone survey on fast food and was completey truthful. I guess it is easier to be a wise ass on paper , but not on the phone.

It was interesting to note how the questions were phrased, a bad question can lead to a predetermined outcome inadvertantly.
