[personal profile] crankyoldman
So, I've realized that I am getting paid to essentially meta all day, lately.

By meta, I mean nitpicky sorts of what is it and how do I sort it kind of OCD stuff. Because I did basically all the research originally, and now there's new research, more people, and I got to spend a good two hours just explaining that I did things in an organized manner. Really. I am so fucking glad I made all those matrices last summer. And kept things as organized as I could. I'm rocking out pretty hardkore now, as I can just cut and paste stuff as people need it. It's somewhat fun explaining my mental process to other people. Oh freshman engineering, the problem solving method and all those points lost on homeworks where I didn't label things correctly really paid off big time.

Of course, this means today is somewhat busy. And my Intern is playing too much WoW at work. I mean, I don't exactly stay on task all the time, but I expect SOME form of promptness for certain things I ask for. I don't ask for it for my health, after all.

Some meme-age, cause it was fun.



Your result for The General Obscure Knowledge Test...

Scientifically Gifted


You scored highest in the Science category of obscure knowledge, congratulations! Knowing how the world works around you is such a great feeling isn't it? Be sure to brag to all your friends. This was definitely the section I was most comfortable writing. Science is celarly the most important category anyways, right?



Overall, you scored 70% Religion, 70% Art and 90% Science! Here are the answers to the questions, for those that are curious.

The black hole question was worded funny. It said the POINT at which you can no longer escape, and it's just called a Singularity, idiot. Not a SINGULARITY POINT. Also, that math question is a MATH QUESTION not a science one. Thankfully I had pen and paper and an ability to factor. I also love how in the answer section he's like, "surprisingly a Rose-Hulman student pointed out my mistake". What's so surprising? Rose is like, a hard to get into private school. I've got two friends there. Makes me wonder where the dude that came up with that test came from. Just 'cause it's in Indiana doesn't mean it's full of stupid people. Gah.

Your result for The Boy or Girl? Test...

75% Correct!


(Further analysis will follow. Eventually.)

That one was fun. Hint: look for Adam's Apples. And the jawline. It usually helps.

Your result for The Camelot Test...

King Arthur


You value honor and equality. You are courageous and logical. While you may be passionate at times, you rarely let your emotion affect your decisions. You are (according to legend) probably the greatest monarch of all time.

Ha ha ha. Oh god. Well, I can't help it, I was a Girl Scout. I'll admit the questions were more about politeness and less about honor. And being polite counts. I'd be a terrible monarch. XD

+ And here's the best Project Runway promo recap evar. I love you TLo!

+ I also love hanging in the fun room. And that's only a fraction of the hilarious conversation that was had, involving blades of darkness, Dracula, and doom.

+ AND I FINISHED MY [personal profile] imaginarybeasts STORY!!! It's cute. Zombie robots rawk. Just need someone to look over and check for my spelling/grammar/etc. Hopefully it'll make it in!

Doesn’t honor and politeness tie in with each other? Or movies make it seem like your reputation is part of you honor.

Congratulations on completion of your story!!! Good luck getting it in.

I'd say deal with the intern if he is being troublesome since it would likely be as good for you as for him.

That surprised me. I took the obscure knowledge meme and got 90% on art, 50% religion, and 60% on science.
