nice job finding a new quiz bitpusher! i thought TT had already taken every existing quiz on the net. although this is a new show, so i guess it was the last one left we hadn't taken!

Here's another:

What poetry form are you?

Strangely, I'm a sonnet.

I'm the limerick, mired in muck.
I refuse to be bored or get stuck.
I like to offend,
But not, in the end,
As much as to thwart expectations

I am, of course, none other than blank verse.
I don't know where I'm going, yes, quite right;
And when I get there (if I ever do)
I might not recognise it. So? Your point?
Why should I have a destination set?
I'm relatively happy as I am,
And wouldn't want to be forever aimed
Towards some future path or special goal.
It's not to do with laziness, as such.
It's just that one the whole I'd rather not
Be bothered - so I drift contentedly;
An underrated way of life, I find.

I'm terza rima, and I talk and smile.
Where others lock their rhymes and thoughts away
I let mine out, and chatter all the while.

I'm rarely on my own - a wasted day
Is any day that's spent without a friend,
With nothing much to do or hear or say.

I like to be with people, and depend
On company for being entertained;
Which seems a good solution, in the end. What Poetry Form Are You?

If they told you I'm mad, then they lied.
I'm odd, but it isn't compulsive.
I'm the triolet, bursting with pride;
If they told you I'm mad, then they lied.
No, it isn't obsessive. Now hide
All the spoons or I might get convulsive.
If they told you I'm mad then they lied.
I'm odd, but it isn't compulsive.

and if:
I, as a clerihew,
Tend to be merry; too
Merry, it might, perhaps, by some, be claimed;
But I'm sure that these people are wrong, and need to be grievously maimed.

Your Result: The Inland North

You may think you speak "Standard English straight out of the dictionary" but when you step away from the Great Lakes you get asked annoying questions like "Are you from Wisconsin?" or "Are you from Chicago?" Chances are you call carbonated drinks "pop."

I do not have an accent!!!
What American accent do you have? Your Result: North Central

"North Central" is what professional linguists call the Minnesota accent. If you saw "Fargo" you probably didn't think the characters sounded very out of the ordinary. Outsiders probably mistake you for a Canadian a lot.

You have a Midland accent" is just another way of saying "you don't have an accent." You probably are from the Midland (Pennsylvania, southern Ohio, southern Indiana, southern Illinois, and Missouri) but then for all we know you could be from Florida or Charleston or one of those big southern cities like Atlanta or Dallas. You have a good voice for TV and radio.

Missed me too! That quiz was hard...since you think of two words as two entirely different things, it's hard to hear if they really do sound the same or different. Maybe I was lying unintentionally, LOL!

That's a Southern accent you've got there. You may love it, you may hate it, you may swear you don't have it, but whatever the case, we can hear it.

Your 'Do You Want the Terrorists to Win' Score: 85%

You are a terrorist-loving, Bush-bashing, "blame America first"-crowd traitor. You are in league with evil-doers who hate our freedoms. By all counts you are a liberal, and as such cleary desire the terrorists to succeed and impose their harsh theocratic restrictions on us all. You are fit to be hung for treason! Luckily George Bush is tapping your internet connection and is now aware of your thought-crime. Have a nice day.... in Guantanamo!

In other words, if I don't agree with the Republicans, I am a terrorist supporter.

That is the problem with the Republicans right now, they have that "if you aren't just like us, you are evil" mentality.

Which celebrity are you most likely to have sex with? Your Result: Gwen Stefani

You like your girl hot and sexy and a little bit on the wild side. You want your woman to be talented and a little bit of a tom boy. Either that or you just want a hot, married chick with rock-hard abs.

CENTRISTS espouse a "middle ground" regarding government control of the economy and personal behavior. Depending on the issue, they sometimes favor government intervention and sometimes support individual freedom of choice.

Centrists pride themselves on keeping an open mind,tend to oppose "political extremes," and emphasize whatthey describe as "practical" solutions to problems.

You responded as a right brained person to 12 questions, and you responded as a left brained person to 6 questions. According to the Hemispheric Dominance test, you use your right brain the most.
