I'm curious - how many times have you had to respond to the census this year? For us, it's been several. We have filled out and mailed the forms, had people come to our house, had the census bureau call us ten times or more to check this thing or that, and double check the forms.

That makes at least four or five times, and they've left DOZENS of robo-messages for us "Please respond to the US Census! We will call again at a better time." Or something. I just roll my eyes at the machine and delete them.

WE ALREADY DID. GAH. Several times. What do you people want from us? *crazyface*

I've been through it (and the interim fill-out-a-form, get used to the idea of a census, thingy) a couple times now as an adult, and I've never had to deal with anything more invasive than filling out a form and mailing it in. I'm beginning to realize why they are so unpopular with some some folks.

I get fewer calls from my mom. And she usually has a real reason to talk to me.

I just responded, once.
MrMan, who lives with me but still officially keeps his address at his house (for work purposes ... he's trying to get transferred from one location to another and needs to be a certain number of miles so that they'll pay for the move) and has his mail forwarded has been harassed, as well. The original form didn't get forwarded, so he got a form from the library. He's found a half dozen notes on the door and his house, "we'll be back later!" and has been called at least ten times.
