US CENSUS!

20 years ago, I asked my mom to see the census sheet because we were learning about it in school, and I had to do a report on it. My mom had already sent it in and I got an F.

10 years ago, I wouldn't let her live it down, and demanded to see the census form. She already sent it in.

Yesterday, my mom calls me to tell me that she got in the census form, and that I don't count anymore, I'm getting my own damn form, and now 20 years of anticipation will be quelled.

Today, I get my form, I'm all fucking excited, I'm thinking this will be the greatest thing since sliced bread because I can finally see and hold the US Census form in my damn hands for the first time since I needed to write that fucking report in 3rd grade. I open it up, it's half in Spanish, half blue, half green, and it's more boring than a 9x12" envelope should contain.

:kingmeh:

I think I just had the biggest nerdy loser moment of my life.


...Though I'm really tempted to write in "Daytona 500" under race, even though it will probably land me in jail.

Also, I get to legally troll the government. Since my legal last name is Spanish, but I am not Latino, Hispanic, or Spanish in origin. Or at least, what they consider to be Latino.  :argh!:

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Seriously, it's tampering with federal property. And unlike putting Where's George? on a dollar bill, this shit is attached to my address. There is no way to fake anything without being caught.

Quote from: US census info form D-16(L)Federal law protects your privacy and keeps your answers confidential (Title 13, United States Code, Sections 9 and 214). The answers you give on the census form cannot be obtained by law enforcement or tax collection agencies. Your answers cannot be used in court. They cannot be obtained with a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request.
Emphasis mine.

So go right ahead.

My biggest dilemma was, do I count the little guy yet or not?  But then I realized it didn't fucking matter and that I was worrying about bullshit.

I think April 1st is the day they want it counted, so if the little guy is around by then count it and if not don't.

...it WAS rather a let-down, I have to say.  Very short.   I've seen less prestigious surveys so much more impressive...
