More Lush Than Geek. . .
Jan 13th, 2008 by Nola
Katie over at Overflowing Brain challenged her readers to do better than her on an Eighth Grade Science test. I failed said test
The site she linked to, however, has all manner of fun quizzes. Quizzes to test whether you’d survive a zombie apocalypse (36%), how much your dead body would be worth for its parts ($4,200), your odds of eating your friends in a blizzard (33%). You know, fun stuff.
I took the geek quiz and scored only about a 30%. The hubs, however, scored 85%. I have now had the explanation of “who shot first” relayed to me twice. Errr. If you don’t what that means, it’s a good thing.
So I settled in on a quiz I thought I’d thrive at–whether I am a lush. And lo! I AM! I scored 83%. I know, big shocker! I am better at knowing my booze than, apparently, a lot of odd things. I attribute that to growing up in New Orleans. When my friend tells her daughter to grab a screwdriver, the daughter grabs OJ and vodka.
Weird that CS is more of a geek than I am a lush. Anywho, all this testing has made me thirsty. So while I go get a beer, go here and have fun with all the quizzes. I’d love to know your results!

i’m a whopping 28% geek! i’m living la viva loca….whoo hoo…lol
78% Geek, 95% Alcoholic.
Janis Joplin and Secretariat died on my birthday, and I could take on 25 five-year-olds in a gang fight.
Damn, I can only take on 14 five years old in a fight. I think it was my stumpy arms that did me in.
My dead body goes for $5040. ChaChing!
My brain is only wired for 30% creativity. I think we knew that, already.
WooHoo! I am only 18% geek and that is only because I was given the answer to one of the question.
Aren’t the quizzes a kick? 90 some-odd% lush (it helps that I just graduated from college a few years ago, so alcohol education is fresh in my mind), which is impressive given that I don’t drink hardly at all.
And my cadaver? $5700. Pretty cool, eh? The Fiance offered to kill me and sell my body but I think it was just jealousy. He was only worth $2500.
I did the alcohol test a little while back and I was very disappointed. Apparently, I am only a drunkard. I have always been a high achiever so now I’m cramming for my certification as a full blown alcoholic.
