"Which Hamlet character are you?" I got Polonius

http://www.buzzfeed.com/sarsoren/which-hamlet-character-are-you-12znh

Polonius is a very nosey character who likes to spy on others. Similar to Polonius, you like to be involved in other people’s business. You also enjoy giving advice. However, you tend to be hypocritical. Like Polonius, you care about your friends and family and the decisions they make.

...sitting in pre-op where they're about to open up my skull, not a big deal but follow up due to poor healing of original surgery.

Da "bone flap" of the skull will be removed and cleaned. Happily, a good facility and great surgical team.

Alas, poor NYC_SKP!



I'll take the survey, too, and get back to ya!

This round I'm not infected and haven't just had an aneurism!


Similar to Osric, you are a very funny person. You take pride in making other people laugh. Although you have good intentions, occasionally people may see you as foolish, instead of humorous.

You got: Gertrude

Gertrude is a very caring character, yet is very unaware of what is going on in the world around her. Similar to Gertrude, you are not always aware of the truth and morals of situations. You tend to be shallow, but you also have a big heart.


I bet it was the goat question.

"Horatio is Hamlet’s very loyal friend. Like Horatio, you are smart and collected. You do well in school and many times put your friends’ needs before your own."

By that logic I am also Twilight Sparkle. Which is also true.

The television show question had me stumped. I've never seen any of those shows and have only heard of two of them.

I picked "Pretty Little Liars" because it didn't sound violent. I Looked it up just now and it's Disney Television. Even so, I think it's still my choice, because "Dr. Who" wasn't listed.
