Personal DNA
Via Leslie, a personal DNA test, which I may have done before but who knows…
You are a Considerate Thinker.
About you: You are a Thinker
#
Your cautiousness, appreciation of functionality, and imagination combine to make you a THINKER.
#
You have a vivid capacity for imagery that allows you to see beyond your present circumstances.
#
You like to be sure of yourself before voicing your opinion.
#
A lot of your time is spent at home, or with the people you care about.
#
Although you may dream often, you’re very aware of how things work, and you value things that work well.
#
You take comfort in the familiar, and value predictability—and others value those things in you.
#
Accordingly, you prefer a set routine, and although you often imagine how things can be different, you’re hesitant to take risks to change things.
#
Sometimes you doubt whether you have the ability to face certain challenges, but your practical focus helps you solve most problems.
#
Because of this, you tend to be more reactive than proactive, thinking thoroughly about the challenges that you face.
#
You have a broad-based, theoretical understanding of the world that allows you to understand its workings.
#
You tend to do things on the spur of the moment, not sticking to a set schedule.
#
You do your own thing when it comes to clothing, guided more by practical concerns than by other people’s notions of style.
#
You believe that things happen for a reason, and that many things are not under our control.
If you want to be different:

Relating to others so well, and understanding their emotions, leads you to trust people in general, even though you’re somewhat shy and reserved at times.
#
Your belief that people are generally well-intentioned contributes to your sympathy regarding their problems.
#
Although you may not vocalize it often, you have an awareness of how society affects individuals, and you understand complex causes of people’s behavior.
#
You like to look at all sides of a situation before making a judgment, particularly when that situation involves important things in other people’s lives.
#
Your close friends know you as a good listener.
If you want to be different:

Equal Opportunity Polling
I did a poll of who Barack Obama would be like in practice as President, which was fun and snarky and all, but why leave McCain out of it? Looks like on the other one I neglected to point out that I was including alt history/fictional options for entertainment value. Otherwise, I was trying to stick to Presidents/dictators of the US, though I see in the prior post I phrased it as “remind you of” who, rather generic sounding. Anyway, here you are…
Presidential Poll
No, not who will be elected, but who you might expect Barack Obama to remind you of should he be elected. Annointed? Sprung forth like a mighty oak from a mere ACORN? Anyway, for your amusement…
I Guess Well
I have no idea how I scored so high. Did I really read that much Calvin & Hobbes?
Your result for How good of a Calvinball player are you?…
Your Grade= A+ Good knowledge and excellent strategy!
63% Game_Knowledge and 84% Game_Skill!
Amazing. You are part of the 4.3% of the population that landed in this category.* You know the game and its history well, and you did amazingly well when it came to playing Calvinball strategically.
This suggests that you probably have a natural talent in Calvinball. You have learned that the trick to doing well in Calvinball is not brute strength, but quick wit. With your natural ability you could go far.
You are definitely already talented enough to beat Calvin. A match versus the quick-witted tiger would be close. I’m going to give you the edge, but his superior knowledge of the game might propel him to victory.
* This is a made up number.
