Testing Rik (again)

Another day, another personality test (thanks, Julie). The results of this one tell me I'm something called RCOEI, the description of which is not friendly and yet strangely familiar:

withdrawn, not wild and crazy, private, loner, not relationship obsessed, not swayed by emotions, insensitive to the needs of others, unhelpful, interested in intellectual pursuits, avoidant, does not put the needs of others ahead of self, thinks before acting, very scientific, not upset by the misfortune of strangers, avoids small talk, values solitude, private, does not get worked up about most things, fearless, unaffected by the suffering of others, calm in crisis, not easily excited, won't do much to avoid rejection, not known for generosity, not easily confused, cold, not prone to complimenting others, dislikes most people but tries to get along to minimize hostility, hard to get to know, more dominant than submissive, not easily hurt, driven by reason, influenced more by self than others, rarely worried, hard to impress, not that interested in relationships, hard to influence, not concerned about failing when trying something new, self confident, knows why they do things, not easily moved to tears, not prone to jealousy, not guided by moods


It goes on to say my ideal place of residency would be Guam. Is Guam subtropical?

Maybe I ought to learn to lie when taking these tests, or maybe blame the test designers for not taking into account the fact that I have been without a cigarette for over 400 hours, and without nicotine replacement patches for almost 100 hours, when they designed the test.

Ack! Time for bed. I feel the urge to deliberately write bad poetry creeping up behind me.
