Test results keep bugging me
Well, it's Friday, and as usual, I am bugging myself to death by taking more silly online tests. It's the price I must pay to support the War Against Seriousness -- a war I take most seriously! But, to paraphrase Drayton Sawyer, just because there's some things I gotta do, that doesn't mean I gotta like it.... On to the tests. By now I'm onto almost all of them.
The first one -- The Cicada Test -- , while fun, gave me a result which makes little to no sense, but here it is anyway: (Via Jay Solo.) Trading what? For what? Let's see. ________________________________ Most of the political online tests I have seen have told me I am some sort of libertarian or other, and there's a new one -- A Satirical Political Beliefs Assessment Test -- which is no exception. The following description comes from the test's author, Donald J. Hagen: A Humorous Political Party Quiz to TestIt is a fun test, and what I most enjoyed about it is that the answers are given in advance, in color, so you know right away whether you are a conservative, a liberal, a libertarian, or a communist. I found myself 80% libertarian, but able to agree with many of the conservative answers as well. What else could a Trading Spaces Cicada be other than a libertarian? But is seventeen years spent living underground worth a few measly days of hedonistic liberty, followed by an undignified death? And what about the cicada killers? I don't especially like the idea of coming out to breed, only to be dragged back underground, paralyzed with poison, and eaten alive by a bunch of young WASP larvae! This fearsome terroristic spectacle goes mostly unreported, but many a wholesome American cicada suffers precisely such a fate as the one displayed here! A fate worse than death itself! Why aren't we being told about these things? Is the liberal media trying to instill feelings of complacency? WASP appeasement? Wholesale surrender? I don't like it! _______________________________________________
But I don't want to be followed! Or bugged! See what I mean about these tests? ________________________________________

The Pharaoh of the Cicadas, the Sexual One, about 70% Antigovernment Libertine and about 30% Arch-Conservative.
Several years ago, I devised an ideological spectrum test extremely similar to that one. I'll post it on my blog as soon as I'm able. (I still haven't been able to post anything to my blog!)
