    There's a couple of those that I always wonder about. One I saw earlier was "most of my friends are astronauts". Surely SOMEONE is in that situation. I wish I was friends with astronauts..

    And another was "I pull my hair out on purpose". I won't lie, I've been through bad periods of anxiety and depression that I did that, so that felt like a weird attention check lol

    yep, hate that one as well. the stock market crash after 9/11 is the ONLY reason why I don't have a pilot's license.

    My thoughts too! I would not give them the time of day and/or allow them to think that they got under my skin to any degree.

    ok my computer is being stupid slow. I think it's getting jealous of all the talk of new laptops here. So i'm going to go restart it and then probably forget to return to work and play the sims instead. Someone tag me if a good batch drops please!

    My niece went through a phase like that. She had a big V shaped patch where her bangs would have been that looked like she was shaving that part off with clippers. along with most of her eyebrows and eyelashes. She was a weird kid.

    I didn't think that one was an attention check, not when the survey was about psychological stuff. I also didn't think the jumping out of planes was an attention check. I thought it had more to do with risk taking behaviors.

    Yikes, I never was that bad, I did it at the base of my neck so it wouldn't be noticable, but it's a pretty insane habit for some people. And that survey I saw it in was already heavily talking about depression and therapy so it seemed like a strange attention check choice.

    I guess it's hard to tell sometimes what is supposed to be quality control when they make it sound so drastic in comparison.

    Oh yea my niece was/is batshit crazy. She got help and regulated pretty well for a few years then turned 18 and went nuts again. Cursed my sister for ever bad thing in her life stormed out of the house, moved in with a friend at her parents house, then proceeded to break up that marriage and marry her friends 48 year old father. She now lives with him and their 2 kids in a trailer in the boonies, and barely talks to any of us anymore. I love her but she's nutso deluxe.
