Interesting quiz

Aug 23, 2009 15:44

So I did that personality test that all my babies have been doing. It's only two questions long and it is very cool considering, but I actually couldn't choose between two of the second questions. So I tried both; I got a Three one way and an Eight the other.

Basically combining these two will give you an accurate representation of my personality; however, the "• When I scream, curse, and stomp around, try to remember that's just the way I am." from the Eight isn't me. Heh, I think it used to be though. Also, I am the opposite of a demanding, controlling and rigid parent, but the quiz didn't have any questions on TCS.

I find it interesting that the quiz can infer so much stuff from just two questions; people are very memey and predictable. I also find it interesting that I'm not wholly described by any one answer; I like to think that's because I'm less memey than most, but it's probably just because I'm picky. 8)
