Q: A new survey of naughty and nice things that we did this year found that 16% of us lied about doing this?

A: voting

 

The website QuickSurveys.com does a poll each year to find out how “naughty” and “nice” we’ve been.  It covers everything from dating habits to politics.

Most of the “nice” things they asked about:  28% of us donated our time . . . 31% donated money . . . 60% did at least one random act of kindness . . . and 50% CLAIM they never lashed out at anyone over the election.

Here are six “naughty” things we did that are a little more interesting . . .

  1. 17% of people unfriended someone on Facebook over the election . . . and 16% lied about voting when they actually didn’t vote at all.
  1. A third of people in relationships looked through the other person’s phone or Internet history . . . and 15% of single people flaked on a first date.
  1. 26% of people found something that didn’t belong to them, and kept it.  And 17% found a wallet, purse, or bag and DID return it, but stole something out of it first.
  1. 59% of us pretended to be sick to get out of something we didn’t want to do.
  1. 20% of people admitted to gossiping about a close friend.
  1. And 12% lied on their résumé, or in a job interview.
