1. Actually, these are randomized tests

And you have to register. I enjoyed the two I did, but your post is misleading.

What a workout!! My brain hurts.

But I love the site and I bookmarked it.

2. Misleading?....lol......I felt sure that the word "harvard" in the URL

would tell the story. :P

You don't have to register unless you plan to take the 'real' tests as opposed to the sample tests. The results are truly interesting.

I found out about that site through the book I'm reading titled, Blink, about our intuition. These tests scramble your rational choices and cut to the quick.

Other sample tests available: Age/Gender/Sexual Bias, etc. here >>

5. eeeewwwwww....and it was a *strong* preference for Nixon

:scared:
I think it means I *dislike* bushwa sooo much that it makes it look like I really *like* Nixon :evilgrin:

Between the two choices...well, Nixon IS dead so thats a + in his column.

6. Hmmmm.....this just get curiouser and curiouser.....

Were you consciously or unconsciously avoiding the weed question, hm?

What would Freud say?

7. I'm bummed out about this.

My choices were between GWB and Reagan, both of whom I dislike intensely. My preference was "slightly" toward GWB. I really think this is an error.
That is like saying which would you like for supper, feces or vomit?

However, it was amusing when I did the gay or straight one and came out strongly favoring homosexuals. That one is accurate. I have always preferred the company of gays to straights. Much more interesting to me. Which is also to say I prefer the company of men to women. If I had a choice for lunch companions I'd always go with the guys (not in a flirty way, but a comraderie way).
What is interesting about that is, I'm very straight. Have never had a homosexual fantasy. (I"m female.) Happily married and still attracted to men. Straight women scare me. They are judgemental and bitchy (generalities, but my opinion).

8. aww honey, you just never met the right ones

straight women I mean. LOL


I do know what you mean about bitchy & judgemental, but I have been blessed through my life to have connected with wonderful "sisters" who are totally nonjudgemental. (Wish I could say the same about my real sister) Don't know what I'd do without 'em. Have been blessed with many dear men friends, too...in that "buddy" kind of way....straight & gay.

I really think that its unfair to give us choices of two that we already intensely dislike. I came up LIKING NIXON better:puke:

....I just figure it means I hate GWB even more than ol tricky DickLOL

9. The more I think about it

I think the reason I got that score is, I couldn't wait to get GWB off the screen so I clicked harder; Reagan is actually more appealing. Kept him on longer.

Ha!

As for women, I have some marvelous straight friends; what I'm talking about is the young women I teach in college. The gay ones are much nicer. The straight ones are a piece of work.

10. ooh...I can imagine.....

didn't realize you teach at college...that would certainly allow you to see the "youth of America" up close & personal. I can imagine that'd be real eye opener. Interesting that the gay ones are nicer....can't say I'm too surprised really.....

As for Reagan vs GWB...hell, "road apples" are more appealing than W. LOL
