Tag: memes-quizzes

Well, I can’t think of much to post on (brain dead tonight), so I think I’ll do a meme. Tonight, I decided to do the metameme:

1. Go to your friendfriends list (or your friends list, if you are a free user).
2. Do the first meme or quiz that you find.

So, tonight we have a BBQ meme, prepared by have_inner_lady on my friendsfriends list (who has estherchaya as the common friend):

Which Website are You?

Commentary: This is interesting, as I have never been to metafilter. However, it does look like a fascinating website! And yes, I am involved in the community, like to share with my friends, am into pancakes, and like the color blue (and brown). However, I’m not into omphaloskepsis.

The answer doesn’t surprise me, although those that know me would look askance at “athletic success”. Does the answer surprise you?

20 Questions to a Better Sense of Humor

Rankings
Sunny/Dark: 8/10
drY/Gross: 5/10
Traditional/Offbeat: 4/10
Active/Passive: 4/10

Quiz Analysis

You are a DGT–Dark Gross Traditional. This makes you a Prankster.

Comedy for you is when a person is kept in the most discomfort for the longest period of time. This means practical jokes, pranks, and sticking a hair up a sleeping person’s nose so he slaps himself awake.

You are probably locked in some terrifying practical joke one-ups-manship with a like-minded soul. You are also probably a dude.

You are able to acknowledge that Dumb and Dumber was a good movie, and that makes you a good person.

You might like Meet the Parents, Punk’d, and that part in Bruce Campbell’s If Chins Could Kill where he convinces a friend that his car has been shoved off a cliff. I’m not describing this adequately. You got to read it.

Of the 5197 people who have taken this quiz, 13.9 % are this type.

Your Active humor score of 4/10 means you’re a yellow dash of comedy down the middle of the humorous road. You prefer to listen than to be the center of attention, inserting funny observations and comments rather than driving the herd. That’s cool. Just remember that the quantity of funny you provide tends to make people think you’re up to something.

My Analysis

I do like the line “you’re a yellow dash of comedy down the middle of the humorous road”. How appropriate for a road geek. A Prankster. Somehow suitably appropriate, given the community I’ve gotten involved with on LJ (all the Prankstyr friends of ellipticcurve), but was never involved with in real life. However, I’m really not that much of a prankster in the traditional sense. It was DSR and others who would set up the glitter traps in the Computer Club. I’m a punster, yes. I tease with a straight face, and regularly pull legs. I certainly make off-color jokes and double entendres. In terms of humor movies, the author of this quiz obviously doesn’t know the classics: The Great Race, Hallelujah Trail, It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World, Monty Phython and the Holy Grail, Blazing Saddles, Kentucky Fried Movie (“But you courd arways go home. Just crick your herrs thlee times…”), or Airplane. Hmmm. I think I’m actually an absurdist.

Must. Wake. Up. Mmmm. Darjeeling tea.

This morning, we have a team breakfast effort, with a serving of memejacks with blueberry syrup, the usual set of delicious accoutrements, and a glass of freshly squeezed meme (with pulp), prepared by deedeebythebay, and her assistants japlady, tsgeisel, and usqueba.

Observations
Note the dramatic drop from the first five to the last two. To quote Allen Sherman, “I Can’t Dance”. It’s true: I have no luck with sports or dancing (about the only dancing I do is Israeli). I love listening to music, but can’t play any instruments (unlike other members of my family, who are great musicians). I play the cassette recorder :-). On the other hand, the first five are accurate, especially the first three, although I would have though visual/spatial would actually be higher (especially spatial), but I guess that depends on the quiz’s construction.

[As an indicator of visual/spatial, note that I did some reworking because these meme authors never seem to know how to format their results to be reasonable in terms of space, and to let the browser handle the line breaks.]

This afternoon, we have crackers with meme whiz prepared by patgund… well, truthfully, we just eat the meme whiz straight from the can.

This explains a lot… considering I turn 45 in a little over a week.

This afternoon, we have a serving of Twinkmemes, with that creamy inside frosting, provided by japlady. The answer comes as no surprise, no surprise at all. ..
