So every so often they interrupted these people and asked them if they were thinking about what it was they were just doing and if they were happy? What sort of answer were they expecting?
Am I happy? No, I was right in the middle of something and you interrupted me with this stupid survey.
Am I thinking about what I was doing? No, not anymore.
Was I before you interrupted me? No not really I was wondering in the back of my mind when this stupid app was going to interrupt me again.
This sounds to me like a self fulfilling experiment, sort of like if she floats she's a witch, if not she's not, either way the accuser wins
