blamebrampton: 15th century woodcut of a hound (Default)
[personal profile] blamebrampton
Lovely [livejournal.com profile] inamac  did this online quiz, and since I am reading over one of my old fics in a bid to make sure that the new writing I am doing is not wholly OOC for my own OCs (sigh), I am in desperate need of procrastination!

Anyone who has ever met me in RL will know why I laughed myself silly when I received this response. Anyone who hasn't should know that the laughter was wholly unironic. Many of my earliest memories are of Women's Lib marches, and I spend my days reading from both sides of politics and keeping up with science and economics as much as I can, so it will not surprise you to learn that I am:


Your result for The Social Persona Test (What kind of man/woman are you?)...

The FemiNazi (NLAF)

Normal Liberal Alpha Female

 

Okay, let's face it. Some people wonder why you don't melt in the rain. However, alpha females are so rare that a little witchiness is worth it. You likely have strongly held convictions and care about society, politics, and the world at large, which only increases your attractiveness. Like the traditional types though, just keep in mind that you may not have all the answers. Despite a difference in interests, The Lord of the Misfits is best for you, as you would never be able to put up with the Frat Boy (NLAM).

 

You are more NORMAL than QUIRKY.

You are more LIBERAL than TRADITIONAL.

You are more DOMINANT than PASSIVE.

That quiz bothers me. :(

It's most definitely aimed at Americans, and people who've reached a certain age, but even then the questions don't have great range. There were quite a few that just didn't have anything I'd pick, so I had to be sort of random/guess, and the questions were phrased really awkwardly.

And I ended up as the same as you, but I really see myself that way.

Sorry to rant at you! Those kind of quizzes never really make sense to me anyway. /o\

Yes, inamac and I were both very bemused by the idea of being perturbed by a 17 year old having a bevvy or two (being falling down drunk would have made for a better question).

But such things can only ever be a bit of silliness of an afternoon. And we would look GORGEOUS in our boilersuits with do-rags. I could even do your hair in a Victory Roll for going out later ;-)

I once did a more 'academic' version of this being a guinea pig for the philosophy graduates at my uni. There was a question: 'Is your mother a good woman?'

I called over the professor and said 'But that's a terrible question! She's a great woman but a kind of shoddy mum, however she's a fabulous advocate for women and a great achiever ... what are you actually asking?'

He hummed, and said, 'Just pick one at random ...'

Plus ça change ...

Heh, yeah. ;)

:D Lovely!

That is very ambiguous, I would very much want an answer. I love how you asked too. ;)

And I noticed that MCR mention up there, and I love it. :D Though, not so much with the emo, they are just big adorable geeks! They want to save your life!

I tried to be dismissive about MCR on principle, as I am meant to be saying 'Young people today ...' a lot, but I just couldn't. They ARE adorable! And more talented than I had thought on first listen, too, not just nice and disposable at all. I feel like my father when he first heard David Bowie ...

:DDD

They're not even that young though! Gerard's about to have a baby! [Heh, like that's some kind of measurement of age or maturity, but still. ;)]

They're catchy, and fun, and have songs that are different and interesting! Have you heard Teenagers? You'll probably like that one. ;)

And if you feel the inclination to branch out, you should totally check out the fic! ;D The MCR part of Bandom has some truly amazing writers. ♥

I fear Bandom. I know that if I so much as dipped my toe into the waters, I would be doomed, since so many smart and talented people live there. I read a Merlin fic this week, and I had to haul myself back and give myself a stern talking to. Happily, it seems to be the best Merlin fic ever, so I don't need to read any more ;-)

And I've not heard Teenagers! Off to YouTube ...

Ahaha! It would be the best kind of doom though. :D

If there's any MCR [or other Bandom] music you wanted I'm happy to upload, or actually, I think my links are still good here.

OMG! That is a BRILLIANT SONG! And so true; kids today are going to have it just as hard as we did in the late 80s (it was v hard, due to a similar economic contraction) but with higher prices for everything. And half of them have parents who think that their behaviour is pathological when they want to do perfectly normal things like rebel or experiment a bit.

I used to have a little nap under my desk at school when I was bored; teachers allowed this so long as I was ahead in my work and not bothering anyone. These days they'd shove me into therapy and medicate me.

I'll have a potter around the links later, thanks!

I know, right!? It was one of the first songs of theirs I heard and I loved it straight away. Though, it does have that horrible American grammar!fail of 'could care less', but I can forgive them in this instance. It fits in the song better. ;)

Ugh, I definitely wouldn't have got away with that in school! It's pretty ridiculous how some things are treated nowadays. :(

Cool! I haven't checked any in a while though, so some might be dead, but I can re-up if needed. :)

*high fives* Watch me nod along approvingly to EVERY WORD of this conversation. It is ONLY A MATTER OF TIME before the whole entire world falls headlong for bandom, as is Just and True.

Also: hey, [livejournal.com profile] blamebrampton! *waves* I haven't spoken to you in yonks, which is sad. Postcard on its way, though :)
