Take The Famous (and Not So Famous) Art Quiz
Considering how bad I was at art history in high school, this must've been a remarkably easy quiz - and up until the last page with photographers/sculptors, I really did find it easy. AFAI can tell, I got only one wrong prior to that last page (Monet/Manet), and only one right on that last page. The creator of the quiz did pick paintings/artists with distinct styles, but also put the choices as people from the same time period and similar general styles of art, so it wasn't all no-brainers, but still not as difficult as it could have been. I'd've liked to see the answers next to the actual paintings at the end.

HFPS - The Humanitarian
Humanity, Foreground, Big Picture, and Shape

You perceive the world with particular attention to humanity. You focus on what's in front of you (the foreground) and how that fits into the larger picture. You are also particularly drawn towards the shapes around you. Because of the value you place on humanity, you tend to seek out other people and get energized by being around others. You like to deal directly with whatever comes your way without dealing with speculating possibilities or outcomes you can't control. You are in tune with all that is around you and understand your life as part of a larger whole. You prefer a structured environment within which to live and you like things to be predictable.

I find this one interesting b/c from what I've learned about composition, everyone "should" have the same reaction to certain photos, they're designed to draw the eye towards certain things.

The tests are quite unbalanced, as would be expected for the 1930's.

I produce 15.0 tonnes of CO_2 per year (according to their calculator), and therefore I should die at age 15.4. At least I'm better than average! :-P

Feb. 20th, 2008 05:38 pm"You wake up one morning and discover that you got knocked in the head and are suffering from amnesia regarding the last... let's say five years. As far as your memories are concerned, it's February 2003. Someone close to you sits down with you and gives you a summary of who you are right now -- all of your activities, your relationships, and your interests.

| What Be Your Nerd Type? Your Result: Drama Nerd You sure do love the spotlight and probably have a very out-going and loud personality. Or not. That's just a stereotype, of course. Participation in the theatre is something to be very proud of. Whether you have a great voice for musicals, or astounding skills for dramas/comedies; keep up the good work. We need more entertainment these days that isn't television and video games (not that these things are bad, necessarily.) | |

Dec. 16th, 2007 04:35 pm| You Scored an A |
![]() You got 10/10 questions correct. It's pretty obvious that you don't make basic grammatical errors. If anything, you're annoyed when people make simple mistakes on their blogs. As far as people with bad grammar go, you know they're only human. And it's humanity and its current condition that truly disturb you sometimes. |
This quiz annoyed me b/c there's basically two questions: its/it's, and they're/there/their. There's lots more grammatical errors out there than just those two and it didn't need to repeat the same questions umpteen different ways. Oh well. I know those two homophones.

![]() The Performer You are a natural performer and happiest when you're entertaining others. A great friend, you are generous, fun-loving and optimistic. You love to laugh - and you like almost all people equally. You accept life as it is, and you do your best to make each day fantastic. In love, you are a smooth talker and incorrigible flirt. While you get into relationships easily, you don't tend to stick around when times get tough. At work, you do well in groups. You keep everyone laughing through difficult tasks. You would make a good actor, designer, or counselor. How you see yourself: Capable, fair, and efficient When other people don't get you, they see you as: Incompetent, stubborn, and silly |
I swear I get a different result every time.

Alcohol quiz
Nov. 17th, 2007 05:39 pmIt's a silly quiz; you don't have to be a drinker to get most of them - I barely drink and look at my score. I couldn't tell you what most of them tasted like. There's also a hint system that I don't quite get.
Accent quiz revisited
Nov. 9th, 2007 09:16 pm| What American accent do you have? (Best version so far) Northeastern This could either mean an r-less NYC or Providence accent or one from Jersey which doesn't sound the same. Just because you got this result doesn't mean you don't pronounce R's.(People in Jersey don't call their state "Joisey" in real life) |
| Click Here to Take This Quiz Brought to you by YouThink.com quizzes and personality tests. |
This is apparently a new and improved version of the accent quiz we've seen before - it does seem to be more region-specific than before.
I wish I could see all the options.
