The following conversation is real; it took place on March 4th, 2003, between a telephone research interviewer and a brainless respondent:

Respondent: “Hello.”

Interviewer: “Hi. My name is Matthew and I’m calling from Lighthouse Research. We are talking to Nevada residents regarding employment issues; do you mind if I ask your opinions?”

Respondent: “Hold on, who are you talking to?”

Interviewer: “Nevada residents.”

Respondent: “Nevada residents?”

Interviewer: “Yeah, people who live in Nevada.”

Respondent: “YOU MORON! I don’t live in Nevada! I live in LAS VEGAS!”
