I'm not even going to get into how many inappropriate "quizzes" I came across on this particular website.

You Are 60% Conservative, 40% Liberal
Social Issues: 25% Conservative, 75% Liberal

Personal Responsibility: 75% Conservative, 25% Liberal

Fiscal Issues: 50% Conservative, 50% Liberal

Ethics: 50% Conservative, 50% Liberal

Defense and Crime: 100% Conservative, 0% Liberal
You Should Maybe Be Allowed to Vote
You got 6/15 questions correct.
You're somewhat in the know, but you're not as informed as you think you are.

Your political information is a little old or incorrect.
Consider studying up a bit before you cast you vote! You want to make sure you know where you stand.
You Are 90% Feminist
You are a total feminist. This doesn't mean you're a man hater (in fact, you may be a man).
You just think that men and women should be treated equally. It's a simple idea but somehow complicated for the world to put into action.
You Are an Average American
You got 3/10 correct.
You know a little bit about America, but not enough to win a game show.
Hit the books, before you embarrass yourself.
You Are Confident and Dominant
You are a very independent, do it yourself kind of person. You've had to rely on yourself.
You know how to be strong for yourself and the people you love. You have a protective streak.

You sometimes come off as a little assertive. You know what you want, and you're not afraid to go get it.
The only thing you require from people is that they're straight with you. You are ready for the truth.


I find it amusing that I apparently have the historical and political knowledge of an "average American" when my score was abysmal (not that there's anything wrong with that; after all, I'm not an American). And as for the last one, and all others like it, it's illogical to think that answering a few innocuous questions or choosing a particular picture could say anything meaningful about your personality. Coincidentally, this particular one wasn't all that inaccurate-- except I don't have a protective streak.

Besides, you arbitrarily insult me all the time. I thought I might as well do the same, with the added benefit of my words actually being true

You still haven't proved how this is relevant.

[identity profile] shinra-pwnsjoo.livejournal.com 2009-08-16 08:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Then you're in need of recovering from our conversation?

[identity profile] peoplesprincess.livejournal.com 2009-08-16 08:05 pm (UTC)(link)
I was just pointing something out.

[identity profile] shinra-pwnsjoo.livejournal.com 2009-08-16 08:06 pm (UTC)(link)
However, as you said, it isn't relevant.

[identity profile] peoplesprincess.livejournal.com 2009-08-16 08:07 pm (UTC)(link)
So? This is hardly a business meeting; sticking to the main point of the conversation isn't critical.

[identity profile] shinra-pwnsjoo.livejournal.com 2009-08-16 08:09 pm (UTC)(link)
You want a casual conversation? How surprising.

[identity profile] peoplesprincess.livejournal.com 2009-08-16 08:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh please, almost all of the conversations here are casual. Even basic information-gathering exchanges are hardly of any real importance.

[identity profile] shinra-pwnsjoo.livejournal.com 2009-08-16 08:18 pm (UTC)(link)
That's extremely nearsighted, even for you.

[identity profile] peoplesprincess.livejournal.com 2009-08-16 08:20 pm (UTC)(link)
I have no reason to do business with you.

[identity profile] shinra-pwnsjoo.livejournal.com 2009-08-16 08:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Why would you automatically assume that I want to do business with you?

[identity profile] peoplesprincess.livejournal.com 2009-08-16 08:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Because you're bemoaning the fact that I only consider this a casual conversation? You can't have it both ways; either it's casual or it's not.

[identity profile] shinra-pwnsjoo.livejournal.com 2009-08-16 08:50 pm (UTC)(link)
You must be misconstruing what I'm saying. I'm always business, I was almost surprised that you weren't as well.

[identity profile] peoplesprincess.livejournal.com 2009-08-16 10:18 pm (UTC)(link)
You mean you're still in business mode when you're doing childish and immature things like making bets about me on the community? I feel sorry for your clients.

[identity profile] shinra-pwnsjoo.livejournal.com 2009-08-16 10:24 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm not making bets, Azula; I'm asking other people questions and receiving compensation for pretending to care about their opinion.

[identity profile] peoplesprincess.livejournal.com 2009-08-16 10:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Don't make excuses. You were acting like a brat, and you know it.

[identity profile] shinra-pwnsjoo.livejournal.com 2009-08-16 10:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Is that what the kettle told you when you called it black?

[identity profile] shinra-pwnsjoo.livejournal.com 2009-08-16 10:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Congratulations from graduating from being imperfectly mature.

[identity profile] shinra-pwnsjoo.livejournal.com 2009-08-16 10:57 pm (UTC)(link)
So you've stated. More than once.

[identity profile] peoplesprincess.livejournal.com 2009-08-16 10:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Then perhaps you should stop implying otherwise.

[identity profile] shinra-pwnsjoo.livejournal.com 2009-08-16 11:02 pm (UTC)(link)
You should have more faith in yourself if all you do is assume based on an implication.

[identity profile] peoplesprincess.livejournal.com 2009-08-16 11:03 pm (UTC)(link)
I have plenty of faith in myself. I just have no faith in you.
