vicious survey

While sitting in a public space, especially where all or most are sitting and shall be sitting for while, one can succumb to vicious survey. This happens to people who are old or complicated or conscientious or lonely enough to feel guilty about or be indifferent to watching attractive men and women, or even people. So when they casually look around, if their ocular interaction with a man or woman's figure in one corner or end of the space amounts to something more than a glance, they make up for it by looking at the other corner or end, to establish a lack of interest or curiosity. If that end or corner too holds a man or woman's figure, and the visual moment transcends a glance, then that person would fall into vicious survey. He would not be able to contemplate or concentrate, and would survey the place continuously until the world is desolate again.

Pandu thought he would sit in the park for a long time, but he yielded to a vicious survey of the place and had to come back to his room, either out of pain in the neck or plain disgust, or both.

short survey

Like a survey, but short. Meaning you get questions asked to you, in a manner that isnt too time consuming, or maybe it's a survey for dwarves.

I thought I'd add this because the latest update for this word is around 15 years old now.

Current Population Survey

(ECONOMICS) survey of 60,000 households in the USA conducted monthly by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. One of two ways in which the BLS gathers statistics on unemployment and hours worked. The other is the establishment survey.

According to an analysis of the 2009 March Current Population Survey, one in five men ages 18-64 - about 21.2 million - are uninsured, compared with 17.2 million women in the same age group. This gap in coverage is consistent across various demographic groups.
