Is there anything about the English language you don't know?

Purple? o_O

We must know the story behind that one.

It's from a personality test based on Peircian semiotics. Here's the test.

And the answer is yes, but not many things.

Apparently, I'm orange. I'm a salesman? Crap.

You're also the personality type of the protagonist in almost every book.

It pegged me as 1-2-3: The Troubleshooter.

Hmm. From the description, I wouldn't place myself there.

Yeah, the test pegged me as a yellow, when I'm fairly certain I'm green--or at least yellow-green. So the test is bad, but the profile is pretty good. They just need better questions. Apparently, they're working on making a better test.

It said I was personality type 13. I didn't read the description because I don't think a test with so few questions would be very accurate.

blue ?

Somehow I think I don't really fit into any one catagory.

I think I'm purple too. Or thirteen, or something.

Jonathon · « **Reply #10 on:** May 09, 2005, 09:25:46 PM »

Wow, there are a lot of people who are thirteen in this forum. And I thought I was hanging out with grownups.

Edit: This is Ruth.

What's 13 mean?

Annie Subjunctive · « **Reply #12 on:** May 10, 2005, 07:05:55 AM »

I'm a 1. A yellow - which I think is rather accurate.

I especially like this little bit and will use it as justification in my next Hatrack debate:
