Survey

[Guest]

Well I've just noticed I forgot to sign in but as I'm actually working and only here for five minutes while I get more bloodsugar to be coherent:
using the guys here as research was actually helpful in that I use a lot of surveys. Mostly because, the kind of research I'm doing there isn't a lot of research in the area. But also because I was using a generational gap. This seemed a lot preferable than going to a bar or somewhere in St. Louis and asking a lot of guys (and girls) face to face those questions... I am a wee little girl and while I'd usually hand this part of the project over to my gay-boyfriend... he has his own work to do.
However, let's face it... I'm a lazy student. It would be ideal if I weren't one of those ultra competitive kids who's all about getting the A at any cost... but strangely I really am. (Obviously my theory is not all work and no play but...) So I also of course try to pick people I think may support my thesis. These are afterall stats and stats can be turned anyway you want them. Maybe it's unethical and I should rethink this - in fact, I'm sure it is, and one of these days when I'm not being graded but funded I will... until then tho' I may harass the boards (and other boards and all my friends) with surveys so I can get some stats to back up what I'm saying: or not back up what I'm saying and come to a different conclusion.
Strangely though, I did get the result I was looking for.

alright then. I'm very glad they helped you out.

you know if they fill them in they obviously aren't feeling harrassed. Or they behave in ways contrary to the way they feel.

Anyway researching your research has been fun for me. I think I need to take another class. I must be due.

lol my friends probably do feel harassed. An example of a message I left one of them:
"Hiiii... you know you wanna come meet me tonight; I have another survey for you to take... you know you love me, come on..."

which is probably preferable to the other messages I leave him which run somewhere along the lines of "I'm weak and hungry - come play with me?" or something equally strange.

Yes... I am being slacktacular but... I'm too depressed to actually work. The words on the page stopped being coherent around the time I got feelings back after being numb. I'm also sober - I think is part of the problem. I should be intoxicated and the words will start to make sense again and I can think again... at the very least I will be numb again and my brain can start moving on to other things.
