Spotting someone who needs to get a life

This ranking survey from goo Ranking uses an internet slang that the person who writes the URLs for the surveys couldn?t translate! Usually the URLs are English summaries of the survey topic, but this time we got just non_leah_mitsuru, a poor transliteration of the term ????. The term ??? appears in my favourite dictionary, so by negating it as indicated by ?, the survey becomes a look at the features of people who do not have a sufficient real-world life.

Demographics

Over the 5th and 6th of September 2011 1,112 members of the goo Research online monitor group completed a private internet-based questionnaire. 70.8% of the sample were female, 13.5% in their teens, 18.2% in their twenties, 28.1% in their thirties, 25.5% in their forties, 8.7% in their fifties, and 6.0% aged sixty or older. Note that the score in the results refers to the relative number of votes for each option, not a percentage of the total sample.
