Here you are, me in a nutshell.
I think I'll just post this here. It says it by itself:

You're probably in the final stages of a Ph.D. or otherwise finding a way to make your living out of reading. You are one of the literati. Other people's grammatical mistakes make you insane.

Well, as a history and creative writing double major, I kind of am trying to make a living out of reading. It's called doing research. See, what I do is I look at these things called primary documents, and they tell me stuff.
And just for reference, I am planning to get my Masters in military history someday, so there you go. I think the clincher that set that up was my answer to "What do you currently read most?" I said "Scholarly non-fiction - the kind that's mostly out of print." (Primary documents, naturally, which I get from Victorian websites and such.)
Oh, and it got another thing right, too: I'm obsessive-compulsive. Here's some proof:
What mental disorder do you have?
Your Result: OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder)

Paranoia
ADD (Attention Deficit Disorder)
GAD (Generalized Anxiety Disorder)
Manic Depressive

And to top it all off, this is brilliant. It basically makes up Chuck Norris facts about whatever you enter into it. I chose everyone's favorite Londinium antagonist, Sir Norwood Linsay:
Ten Top Trivia Tips about Sir Norwood Linsay!
The last one made me crack up. Hard.
EDIT: Apparently Stephen Colbert has something in common with Peter Cook, and this has made my day.
According to a quote I read on YouTube here, Stephen does the following:
av3ry: In an interview Stephen said that Jon started laughing first, which is what made him completely lose it. In the same interview he said that as much as he tries to make the audience laugh, he tries to make Jon laugh more.
Does this mean Stephen is Peter and Jon is Dudley? Just putting this one out there. I mean, both pairs even have the satire thing going for them...
EDIT 2: Only I could find a mention of Peter and Dudley on ColbertNation. It also led me to find a Peter fanvid, which was in one of the poster's signatures. Honestly, my mind has more than one track! It does!
