One of my daily surveys gave me pause to ponder this morning. It was about health issues and one of the questions was..'Have you suffered a fatal heart attack this past year?'..Well..ummm..Though I personally felt compelled to check 'No' I can't help but wonder how many folks answered 'yes'?
Have you ever encountered such absurd statements used in a serious light?

I'm sorry greenfeathers, but I just can't help it!
I wonder how many people did check 'yes'!It is
quite a stupid..oh, I meant "redundant" questions, isn't it?
I have to say this one is really one of the best! I have seen
some that are quite ridiculous and wonder if they are there
to try to "trip someone up" or they are serious? I like yours
the best so far!

Heh, that's funny, in a morbid way
I have a relatively similar story, though it wasn't on a form, just a momentary lapse of reason from a doctor. A while back a friend of mine fainted in the street and I took her to the hospital. The doctor there asked me several questions, because she was still too weak to answer. I told him that she had just given birth three weeks before, and was probably still weak after that. Then he asked me: "We're going to do some intrusive tests on her, do you know by any chance if she's still a virgin?" Um... since she had just given birth to a baby, I'm going to go with "no"... but maybe doctors know something I don't.

Hiya greenfeathers,
Well that is a one to answer is´nt it. Being fatal I think is a bit morbid as many many lives are saved nowadays not like before.
I have come across questions like those but I can´t remember any right at this moment but yes they did make me smile too.
I don´t do Surveys being here but the ones I did I found amusing in a morbid way. Also things I have come across in the Internet and things People say too. Again I wish I could remember just one of them.
Take care now. xxx
