Bite Me, Blogthings

Explain to me this -- the quiz was, "At what price would you sell out?" There were 8 questions, all "Would you do (such and such) for 10 million dollars?" And 7 out of 8 were things that hurt others; I said no to all of them. Truthfully! There was one that asked if I'd cheat on my sweetheart with his best friend for 10 million dollars, and I considered putting yes, but that is mostly because:

a) I have no sweetheart
b) My past couple of sweethearts were not so sweet; and
c) I am really, really broke

However, in the end I decided that if he was really my "sweetheart," then I would not do it. So that left my only yes as "For ten million dollars, would you eat three big bowls of live spiders?" Hell, yes! For ten million dollars, I would eat the spiders, their eggs, their webs, a book about spiders, and wash it all down with a nice big glass of juice squeezed from spiders.

Have I mentioned that I'm really broke?

If I were making a decent salary and could afford things like...coffee this morning...I may not tackle this task with quite so much gusto, but I don't know, 'cause 10 million dollars is a LOT of money. Plus, my dream is to be on "Survivor," in which case I'd have to eat something like hippopotamus brains just for the chance to win ONE million dollars. So I answered yes, feeling pretty good about the relative strength of my moral fiber.

Then I got this:

On Average, You Would Sell Out For

$1,118,111

Um, excuse me? If I wouldn't even give my family acid at Thanksgiving, which would most likely make for a fun evening on my end, and if I'm getting 10 million for the spider feast, why in the world would I sell out for just over a million? Blogthings just arbitrarily makes up answers to reflect the worst in people. I got that I was an angry drunk just because I said I'd be likely to drunk dial an ex. SO? Drinking doesn't make me angry! Blogthings makes me angry! However, apparently

I Am 55 percent addicted to Blogthings

You're a Blogthings fiend - addicted but not totally dependent. So what if you know your personality type by heart? And while you may feel like Blogthings is crack... There are people much worse off than you!

...so I guess I will be back.

Oh, and one of the questions in the quiz above was:
If you take a Blogthing and don't like the results, you:

a) Shrug it off
b) Take another blogthing
c) Complain about the Blogthing in your journal

Touche, Blogthings. Touche.
