The Mega-Meme From Hell
- Posted by Beth on August 3rd, 2005 filed in General, I hate memes & quizzes
…and the exception to my no-meme rule, only because basil asked me and the last time he tagged me with a meme, I blew it off. Plus, this one made me laugh. At myself.
Look at me! I’m lazy, carefree, happy, hard-hearted, bossy, and a wingnut! w00t!
(Like you didn’t already know that, right?)
Ok, this one takes a little time, but hey…I’m easily amused. Plus, like basil, I had already done half of the work a few months ago.

===============================
Overview: This post is a community experiment with two broad purposes. The first is to create publicly accessible data about bloggers’ personalities, which may have sociological value in addition to being just plain fun. The second is to track the propagation of this meme through blogspace. Full details and explanation can be found on the original posting: http://pixnaps.blogspot.com/2005/06/meme-worth-spreading.html
Instructions (to join in the experiment):
1) Take the IPIP-NEO personality test and the Political Compass quiz, if you have not done so already.
2) Copy to the clipboard that section of this post that is between the double lines, and paste it into your blog editor. (Blogger users may wish to use ‘compose’ mode to preserve formatting and hyperlinks. Otherwise, be sure to add hyperlinks as necessary.)
3) Replace the answers in the “survey” section below with your own.
4) Add your blog information to the “track list”, in the format: “Linked title - URL - optional GUID“.
5) Any additional comments should go outside of the double lines, including the (optional) nomination of bloggers you wish to pass this experimental meme on to.
6) Post it to your blog!

And what the hell? How about the whole Cotillion bunch? muahahahahaha!!!! Hey, surely I’ll get a few yeses if I ask enough people…
(Yes, I know; you dudes have all said exactly that before.) :-P
Sigmund, Carl and Alfred says:
You’re assertive? Really?
Ogre says:
I think there’s a typo in your age entry… ;)
William Teach says:
which Jody, the real one or the sunstitutes? :roll:
Beth says:
SC&A: Allow me to show my assertiveness–hurry up and do the damn meme already! :wink:
Ogre: Good catch! I meant 28, of course! (xoxoxoxo) hehehe
Teach: I mean the Jody who’s pretending to have a broken computer so she can slack off, of course. :razz: And I know, I’ve been slacking over there, too.
Dr. Sanity says:
The NEO -PI is basically a very good personality inventory and we have even used it in assessing astronaut candidates (that is part of the research I used to do in an earlier life as a flight surgeon and psychiatrist at NASA). I already took this exam some years ago, so I will refrain from responding to your challenge. :razz:
jody says:
My computer *is* broke…I’d like to see what my substitutes have to say for this one too…So consider yourselves tagged too! :)
William Teach says:
Blogging doesn’t count as activity? What up wit dat? I can burn 3 calories typing a day. Then a couple thousand stretching my back out after sitting in poor posture for long periods of time.

Janette says:
:shock:Gah! I feel like I’m putting off homework with this thing. It looks like work and I’m doing my best to avoid work these days. Fine, I’ll do it but I plan on resenting every second of it.

I’ve Been Tagged: The Mega-Meme From Hell
Hmm, I was terribly tempted to blow this thing off. I would have if anyone other than Beth had asked me to do it. (I’m a little scared of her.) An explanation, Beth has a fascination for these psychological tests…
