Okay, so I find out that from people on facebook about this website called spokeo.com which not only uses all of the information that's collected about you, but it also displays it for everyone to see. (and for a fee, you can view some of the more sensitive information)
Well, you can opt-out, by clicking on the privacy tag...
But what got me, was how WRONG it is about me.
Let me explain some of them.
-Hobbies are sports, reading and photography.
If you're not laughing right now, you should be. I am totally not much about sports. Yes I like an occasional football game, but that's like saying I like a good burger. However, I like the burger more than the game.
Reading, while I do read, I am not what you would call a very heavy reader. For example, I read comic books. And then even at that, I don't really read them. Sometimes the pictures are okay.
And Photography. WHAT?!? Yeah, I am not into photography. I mean, WOW! Could it be more incorrect?
- Estimated Home Value $1M+
If they're saying my home is worth more than a million dollars, either I got screwed or someone is off by a decimal point or two.
- Plays Sports
More humor there as at 300 pounds, the only sport I am playing at is fishing, and that's not really a sport now is it?
- Loves Reading
Ummm, no. Not really.
- Reads about sports
No I don't.
- Reads about world news and politics
The only thing I read out of the sunday newspaper is the comic strips. Not that the tribune's strips are any good. Some days I even skip that section as well.
- Subscribes to magazines
I have no idea where they got that. I don't subscribe to my comic books (they're ordered month to month). And I actually don't read any magazines.
- Enjoys photography
Depending on the picture, everyone likes a good picture... but wait, you mean me taking them? Heh, no.
- Donates to causes and Donates to health causes
Oh, they really don't know me that well.
They also say that my house has no fireplace (yes it does), no central heating (yes it does) and no central air (you better believe it does).
Oh and 3 people live in the house. I can't figure that one out, as it says we have no children.
I got my chuckles and then deleted my entry. Seriously!
