As I Said

I'm not much of a quiz taker. But since it is all the rage, the farging marathon dancing of the pixelated age, and since even the belovedly besotted Jim of Parkway Rest Stop took it, I deigned. It told me:


You are a WECL--Wacky Emotional Constructive Leader. This makes you a People`s Advocate.

You are passionate about your causes, with a good heart and good endeavors. Your personal fire is contagious, and others wish they could be as dedicated to their beliefs as you are.

Your dedication may cause you to miss the boat on life's more slight and trivial activities. You will feel no loss when skipping some inane mixer, but it can be frustrating to others to whom such things are important. While you find it difficult to see other points of view, it may be useful to act as if you do, and play along once in a while.

In any event, you have buckets of charisma and a natural skill for making people open up. Your greatest asset is an ability to make progress while keeping the peace.

Of the 82777 people who have taken this quiz since tracking began (8/17/2004), 6.1 % are this type.


I hate to say it, but that nails me pretty well. I generally try to skew the curve on standardized testing. But these bastards are smart. They can smoke you out in a heartbeat. I just take solace in the fact there are only 6.1% of the peoples afflicted as I am. That, at least, gives my diagnosis a sense of elitism, right? And that's all I was after, anyway.

The bastards told me I was a politician. Feh.

Ha, "Buckets of Charisma"...

"In any event, you have...a natural skill for making people open up."

And if that fails, you always have the speculum.

And to think, Zonker seems so sweet and innocent in person...it's gotta be that Veloci-influence. ;)

At first I thought it's sole purpose was humiliation, but I took it until it revealed an awful truth: 'Golden God'.

Ahem. You may now address me as Your Highness. ;)

You are a WEDF--Wacky Emotional Destructive Follower. This makes you a Menace to Society.

Well, whether you're actually a menace depends on how you choose to channel your energies. You chew your fingers and have an addictive personality. Properly guided, you can be enormously productive--otherwise you run amok, stir up trouble, and generally have a hell of a good time.

To your friends, you are a source of relentless entertainment. You often get into trouble, but you almost always find a way out. You are strangely popular and feed off others' energy. You live hard, seize the day, and although your more sober friends would like to see you settled down, you generally have fewer regrets and better memories than they do. Your tenet is that, at the end of the day, one regrets only what one didn't try. You are right.

You could benefit from outside help in balancing your highs and lows. Or perhaps cutting back on the caffeine.

Who the hell posted that comment up there under my name?! Musta been the evil twin, Key.
