    I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore

    In my mind she has already removed the bikini so I have no idea what color the bikini is ...much less the dots.

    Yellow? After all you said "yellow polka dot" and not "yellow, polka dot".... First grade baby!

    Uh red for the "yellow, polka dot" question

    Very few people choose yellow. I do, too, btw. Almost no one has picked up on the "single dot" theory. Mr. Literal, you missed that one.

    OK, if you REALLY want to nitpick, it can be assumed that since you put 'yellow polka dot bikini' in double quotes, you are at least referencing a popular culture idea if not the popular song of a similar name. Therefore, it can be assumed that as already mentioned there is a yellow base color with any color dots. On top of that, your original post even asks "What color are the dots?" and then states that it is for a sociology study. It can then follow that since you asked specifically for the dot color, made a popular culture reference to illustrate the idea of your question and then stated that it was a question for a sociology survey, one can expect the question to not be a "trick question" based on punctuation semantics or delibratly misleading. If either of those cases were true, unless the goal of the study was to mislead survey participants, any other goal would be invalid because the results would achieved under false pretenses and there would be no correlation between the goal of the study and the collected data set.

    Since you are not complaining that the answers are not what you are looking for, I would suggest that jdhdiggs stop being such a killjoy. If the answers are not what you are looking for, you should rephrase your question.


    That said, the dots on a yellow bikini with polka dots should be RED!

    And there should be a slinky, well-tanned brunette filling out that bikini!

    If the dots need to be yellow and the base color is what we need to choose then I still choose red but make the girl a blonde.

    I say red and my wife says black my boss says blue.
    The base is yellow.

    In the video first released by Brian Hyland and Paul Smith in August of 1960 a young brunette in a yellow bikini with red dots is dancing promiscuously on the beach after finally breaking free of her shyness. It caused a lot of controversy for it's time and was an instant hit on VH1 and MTV.

    Why choose yellow, you asked about the color of the dots, which is plural. Therefore, there can not be a "single dot" theory.
