When you have a very long distance but very short duration trip (e.g., MR where you flew 5,000+ miles and then back in the course of 2 days), does CBP give you guff about it?

Two of their standard questions are "purpose of your trip?" and "how long were you out of the US?". If the answers were "pleasure" and "2 days", I could see them getting an attitude and giving you lip about it. What has your experience been and how do you handle it?
