It may not be accurate, but it sure is intimidating.

the questions themselves, for honest folk, are not anything exciting. They are asking about affiliation with foreign agencies and espionage... as well as history of drug use and serious crimes.

The hard part is when they shut off the equipment and ask, "What are you hiding?"

>> No.5433440 [DELETED] 

>>5433432
funny

anyway turns out i can get one for less than $100, so fuck it, maybe i'll just buy it.
i can probably resell it later and make most of the cash back.

That's what the polygraph testers do - after the test is "over" they ask intimidating questions to make you feel guilty in the hopes that you'll reveal something to them "in confidence." It's actually the most revealing part of the test. They basically trick you into admitting shit you may not have even done.

>> No.5433515

>>5433445
Yep. I don't want to disclose who was testing me or when I took the test, but they asked very simple questions about terrorism and drug use.
