I’m having a hard time finding the motivation to start my homework. Maybe a little light blogging will point me in the right direction?
So, one of the reasons I like this new dating site is because they have all of these personality tests and compatibility questionnaires. The site uses your answers to assign a compatibility score (prolly like eharmony and such) that other members can see. I like that I can weed out people that are opposed to gay marriage or hate animals…it’s easier than doing it in person. I also like taking some of the personality tests on the site. I hate it when other people just post results to their “What Kind of Corn Are You?” quiz (corn salsa), but I’m going to be a quiz-result-posting jerk just this one time…hopefully you won’t think less of me.
I’m posting these today for a couple of reasons. First, these actually do say something about me (or the person I think I am). More importantly though, I’m amazed that I’m so easily pegged. I’ve always fancied myself an exotic, mysterious enigma of a girl and these damn Internet tests seem to see right through me. And that is…vexing.
LOL, this song just came on…
brains for dinner
brains for lunch
brains for breakfast
brains for brunch
brains at every single meal,
why can’t we have some guts?
Anyway, vexed. Am I so transparent? Were my years spent in study of the dramatic and psychological arts for nothing? Time will tell, I suppose. Until then, I offer you the following, cheap insight…

The Wild Rose-Random Brutal Love Dreamer (RBLD)
Colorful, but unpicked. You are The Wild Rose. Prone to bouts of cynicism, sarcasm, and thorns, you excite a certain kind of man. Hoping to gather you up, he flirts and winks and asks you out, ultimately professing his love. Then you make him bleed. Why? Because you’re the rare, independent, self-sufficient kind of woman who does want love, but not from a weakling.
You don’t seem to take yourself too seriously, and that’s refreshing. You aren’t uptight; you don’t over-plan. Romance-wise, sex isn’t a top priority—a true relationship would be preferable. For your age, you haven’t had a lot of bonafide love experience, though, and this kind of gets to core of the issue. You’re very selective.
The problem is them, not you, right? You have lofty standards that few measure up to. You’re out there all right, but not to be picked up by just anyone.
Yeesh, that’s scarily accurate. Here are some more test/result combinations!
The Politics Test: Democrat (socially and fiscally liberal)
The What Kind of Girl are You Test: The Liberal Beauty (Sarandon-esque…aww, thanks)
The Which Lolcat Are You Test: Longcat (This is relevant to my interests)
The What is your REAL age Test: You are 39 years old!! (What the fucking fuck?)
The What type of MAN turns you on Test: Mysterious boy (these are getting dumb)
The Quick & Painless ENNEAGRAM Test: 4- the Individualist (surprise!)
What Kind of Feminist Are You Test: Social Concerns Feminist (finally, the truth can be told)
The Nerd? Geek? or Dork? Test: Modern, Cool Nerd (you got that right, Internet)
And that’s it! I promise I’ll prolly never do this again.
