Maryland's health care exchange site asking weird, personal questions: ‘Where were you when you had your first kiss?’
Visitors to the Maryland health care exchange site may find themselves being asking some unusual questions, like where they were on Setpember 11, 2001, and what was the name of their first stuffed animal.
Local affiliate WBAL was first to report that some residents were complaining of the unusual questions, which appear as part of the sign-up process for coverage under the Affordable Care Act.
Yahoo News was able to confirm those reports during a walk-through of the site’s enrollment process.
After providing personal information, including one’s Social Security number, individuals are asked three personal security questions.
On first glance, the questions are typical for sites that have security protocols in place to help protect people from identity theft, or to help them regain access to a site if they’ve lost their password or username.
But when someone scrolls down among the suggested security questions, a number of odd choices pop up.
“What was the name of your first stuffed animal?”
“Where were you when you had your first kiss?”
“What is the first name of the boy or girl that you first kissed?”
“What is the name of the place your wedding reception was held?”

Did you awaken with hairy hands?
I have had to tell a doctor’s office that the blanks on the form they gave me to fill out were none of their business and skipped on purpose. The receptionist giggled. I put n/a on asshat questions.
To #8> Was the radio playing “Somebody’s Watching You”, “Only the Lonely” or “Great Balls of Fire”?
Just asking. Making a list. Sending it to Annapolis and Marxist Governor O’Malley.
I got out of Maryland when the gitting was good. My prayers for those still stuck in Moscow West.
Where? Back seat.
Who? Yehuda Puddintain
Reception location: She received me in the usual place; we’re not kinky!
9/11 location: A motel room in Arizona with Yehuda.
First stuffed animal: My mom’s roasted chicken.
What college turned ME down?!? We had college academic recruiters visiting our home while I was still a high school junior. In fact, my parents were offered a free ride for me to UC Berkeley straight from 8th grade...and turned it down.
My favorite childhood friend was named Jesus: He loved me. How did I know? The Bible told me so!
Any more questions, you ignorant bureaucrats?
yes
I’d rather be alone than have the Wookie there.
No but I almost went blind.
Good one!
I would have said, porch swing, early summer, 1964. :-)
Come on, it is obvious these are questions that are used when people forget their password so they can prove they are who they say they are. I get the same on just about every bank and credit card company I do business with and so do you!
Definitely.
If I had a nickle for every time I typed that,.....
....I'd have a nickle.
