    Default Want 2 dollars fo' free? :P

    Well, I guess I'm sorta stunned. I got some crap from Nielson Media not too long ago, asking me to do a survey. I accidentally opened the letter, thinking it was something important. I see a survey thing fall out. I pick it up and look at it. At this time, I was bored out of my mind while my girlfriend was out of town and I was upgrading Windows XP, so I took it, and threw it back in the mailbox.


    3 Weeks earlier:
    Two days before college starts, and I check the mail again after playing some Dark age of camelot. I see a reply letter from Nielson. Hey, better to read it, right?

    I sit down at the kitchen table and tear it open, only to see George Washington beaming back up at me.

    His twin brother is under him.


    TWO ****ING DOLLARS!







    They pick people randomly to do the survey, I think they're choosing 1 million Americans per yer, but hey, at least it's worth it.

    What's the point of this thread?

    To inform you that the Nielson letters you get may not be so "junk mail"-ish after all.

    P.S. - I know it's just two dollars, but you barely have to write anything, you basically get it for free.

    Yea because you definitely are asked to put your name and adress on it. Those surveys are anonymous you idiot.
