Does that matter at all?
No, not really...
Will answering this questionnaire enlighten you in any way?
It could broaden my horizons, force me to search my soul and be a catalyst for change in my life.
You're right, not one bit.
Hey, you're not listening to me! And that's not a question.
Calm down. It's grammatically incorrect to begin a sentence with a conjunction in any case.
I'm sorry, my grammar gets sloppy when I'm angry.
That's ok, I understand. Tell me, how do you feel about your mother?
I thought this was just a MySpace questionnaire, ask me what colour my mobile telephone is, or who I last hugged or something.
So, you're seeking attention, is that correct? You feel neglected, and you want to answer any mundane or meaningless question posed to you, just to feel like someone is listening. Is that right?
I suppose there is an element of truth in that. I can't help but feel disappointed by these questionnaires, I always start out with the best of intentions, but invariably the questions are mindless and poorly-written, and I find I'm not making any progress in my life by trying to decide whether I prefer Lipton Ice Tea or Nestea when I've never tasted either of them. I wish I could find a more satisfying and meaningful way to spend my time, I keep hoping these surveys will help me solve my problems but I realise now that they actually just distract me from them.
It's a common problem. What do you think your next course of action should be?
I'm really not sure. Maybe I should spend some time alone, meditating, really work out how my thoughts and my emotions work. Study philosophies of different cultures, see if anyone has a better idea than I do. Travel, see the world while I still can, not taking anything for granted and then regretting that I didn't take the chance before it was too late. Maybe just spend more time with the people I love, appreciating what they bring to my life, and letting them know that I do love and appreciate them. Hey, thanks for listening, it's been really helpful.
I wasn't listening, I'm just a questionnaire.
Oh...
Bother.
