Annoying

Nov 23, 2005 4:44AM PST

Anyone other then me find it annoying how you get bomabarded by requests to do surveys when visiting CNET? or all the cookies from who knows where?

I say CNET, not BOL as they are only one part of a whole. I found it interesting as to how many cookie requests I would get and I think I refuse at least a dozen or more. Who are these cookies from? Why do they want to give me a cookie? and will I get milk with it if I say yes?

I guess I find it more annoying as these surveys are US-Centric, and if they are offering me a prize or cash for my time, I don't qualify. Maybe I could use Tom or Molly's ZIP code and if I win we could split the winnngs?
