Answer 2

i imagine that someone is doing marketplace study. after I supply a close answer there is an alteration contained in the subsequent barrage of questions, so i do not imagine it truly is random. So, the question could be, what's the study for? it really is weird and wonderful that the names are already taken by ability of cigarettes, fruit drink, racetrack....... ok, my second idea is that our habit is being examined by ability of extraterrestrial beings, or the authorities. shall we search for little metallic bits up our noses and implanted in our napes. apparently it truly is making use of me loopy too - lolololol
