My inner shrink ran over my own brain pan -- at midnight!

Let's start with psychoanalysis! I'm always in need of that -- especially on Fridays, when, rain or shine, it's always online testing day at Classical Values.

By the way, I don't know what I would do without Ghost of a flea, because there is a paucity of online tests in the blogosphere these days. And I see a shortage not only of these slightly silly online tests, but of graphics, music, animation -- anything besides straight text. We may even be in a sort of Dark Ages -- and the Flea does more than almost any other blogger to keep culture and color alive in an increasingly colorless blogosphere! In this regard, I am sorrier than ever to see Rachel Lucas leave, because I loved her pictures, and I think it is very important to spice up blogs with things like pictures, videos, recipes, etc.

So much for half "baked" blog theories!

Perhaps it is appropriate that this first test promised to tell me which 20th Century Theorist I am.

The Flea and I are both incarnations of an important psychoanalyst!

Lacan
You are Jacques Lacan! Arguably the most important
psychoanalyst since Freud, you never wrote
anything down, and the only works of yours are
transcriptions of your lectures. You are
notoriously difficult to understand, but at
least you didn't talk about the penis as much
as other psychoanalysts. You died in 1981.

Well, if I am a psychoanalyst, what kind of thinker am I? While the next test did not promise to tell me anything more than when I am, my "when" is apparently deep and dark!

Midnight
Midnight - You are a deep thinker, always searching
for answers and never quite at home. You are
very contemplative, and enjoy being alone with
your thoughts.


When are you?

If I am dark, then I must be a villain, right?

The next test -- "What MST3K Villain are you?" -- brought me right back to the psychoanalysis, because I am a severed head. And female, severed head nostalgia at that!

Obviously, I am in danger of losing my head -- a head which isn't even mine, and which is kept in a pan!

More nostalgia! (Gotta keep losing my head, right?)

Finally, once again from the Flea, I found one last test -- to determine which video game character I am.

I am a Scorched Earth Tank:



What Video Game Character Are You? I am a Scorched Earth Tank.I am a Scorched Earth Tank.


When I have a mission, it consumes me; I will not be satisfied until the job is done. I have a strong sense of duty, and a strong sense of direction. Changes in the tide don't phase me - I always know which way the wind blows, and I know how to compensate for it. I get on poorly with people like myself. What Video Game Character Are You?


"I get on poorly with people like myself?"


(Maybe I should put my brain pan back in the oven....)
