In lieu of real content, which will have to wait until it’s cooled down enough for me to think coherently once again, here’s another quiz. Once again, via Dawn.
Are you Addicted to the Internet?
The Are you Addicted to the Internet? Quiz at Stvlive.com! |
Well, it’s not as bad as I originally feared.
Found this at Dawn’s site and felt perverse enough to not only take the quiz but also make snarky comments on the results. Well, what do you expect from The Journal Entry Of The Beast?
Your Brain Usage Profile
Auditory : 33%
Visual : 66%
Left : 45%
Right : 55%
It’s nice to know that I’m right more often than I’m, er, left. Wait, that didn’t come out right…
Karel, you possess an interesting balance of hemispheric and sensory characteristics, with a slight right-brain dominance and a slight preference for visual processing.
Did you get that? They said I’m interesting! Take that!
Since neither of these is completely centered, you lack the indecision and second-guessing associated with other patterns. You have a distinct preference for creativity and intuition with seemingly sufficient verbal skills to be able to translate in any meaningful way to yourself and others.
Wait, did they just say I lack indecision? That I don’t second-guess?
Mwahahahahahaha!
Oh, and I’m glad my verbal skills are “seemingly sufficient.” That’s a great load off of my mind, let me tell you.
You tend to see things in “wholes” without surrendering the ability to attend to details. You can give them sufficient notice to be able to utitlize and incorporate them as part of an overall pattern.
Ignoring the “whole” thing about wholes for a moment… what does “utitlize” mean? I could hazard some guesses but I never know who’s reading this thing so I suppose I’ll have to let that one slide. For now. I will agree that I tend to view “the big picture,” and all that rubbish.
In the same way, while you are active and process information simultaneously, you demonstrate a capacity for sequencing as well as reflection which allows for some “inner dialogue.”
For the record, “inner dialogue” is a euphemism for “you talk to yourself all the damned time, you loser.”
All in all, you are likely to be quite content with yourself and your style although at times it will not necessarily be appreciated by others. You have sufficient confidence to not second-guess yourself, but rather to use your critical faculties in a way that enhances, rather than limits, your creativity.
Pardon me whilst I guffaw yet again at the notion that I don’t second-guess myself.
Guffaw. I say, guffaw!
Thank you. Where were we?
You can learn in either mode although far more efficiently within the visual mode. It is likely that in listening to conversations or lecture materials you simultaneously translate into pictures which enhance and elaborate on the meaning.
Agreed.
What? I can be agreeable if I want to. So there. Nyah.
It is most likely that you will gravitate towards those endeavors which are predominantly visual but include some logic or structuring. You may either work particularly hard at cultivating your auditory skills or risk “missing out” on being able to efficiently process what you learn. Your own intuitive skills will at times interfere with your capacity to listen to others, which is something else you may need to take into account.
Or, to translate: “If you shut up and listen instead of jumping to conclusions, you’ll run into fewer problems.” Gee, there’s advice for the world, eh?
Okay, okay, I’m done. All this because I stared at some shapes and colors for a few minutes…
According to an ever-so-scientific quiz,
Feh! I’ll survive this thing, dammit. I’ll even complete it! (Heh.)
Wendi pointed me towards this little test, which says I’m one of these. Oddly enough I think they’ve got a pretty good handle on me. Scary.
Oh, Wendi’s one of these, in case you’re wondering. I think it’s a less-accurate assessment than mine, but it still has some validity.
What, you wanted eloquence for a Surveys posting at 12:30 in the morning after I’ve just rebooted the server because it had a modem hiccup it couldn’t recover gracefully from? Really now…
Found via Phoemeister, who I had been negligent about visiting for quite some time now:
Threat rating: Medium. Your total lack of decent
family values makes you dangerous, but we can
count on some right wing nutter blowing you up
if you become too high profile.What threat to the Bush administration are you?

Of course, my result would have to include typos, wouldn’t it? *eyeroll*
UPDATE: A “good catch” award goes to Shegirl for pointing out that these things have titles at the top. It’s just that the script generates white text on a white background, so you have to highlight it to see it.
UDPATED AGAIN: Argh. I didn’t notice that there were two lines of text at the top. Thanks, Mari. So much for a nice, simple, elegant entry…
