this is funny
Your result for The Which Star Trek Species R U Test...
Borg
Homeworld: Unknown (their origin is somewhere in the Delta Quadrant)
The Borg - the scourge of the universe. Their very name strikes fear into the hearts of species everywhere. An aggressive, ruthless species, they are single-minded in their pursuit for efficiency. The Borg believe that organic species are weak and seek to improve themselves by incorporating technology to become cyborgs. The Borg have no sense of individuality, instead having a hive mentality. As a Borg, you seek knowledge and power - you're also prepared to do whatever it takes to get these. You have no patience for frivolous things - what is the point of doing something if it isn't useful? You also don't make friends easily. This is because you are convinced your way is the right way and you're aggressive enough to enforce your beliefs on everyone else - by force if necessary.

Your result for The Quick & Painless ENNEAGRAM Test...
6 - the Questioner
you chose CY - your Enneagram type is SIX (aka "The Loyalist").
"I AM AFFECTIONATE AND SKEPTICAL"
Questioners are responsible, trustworthy, and value loyalty to family, friends, groups, and causes. Their personalities range broadly from reserved and timid to outspoken and confrontative.
How to Get Along with Me
Be direct and clear.
Listen to me carefully.
Don't judge me for my anxiety.
Work things through with me.
Reassure me that everything is OK between us.
Laugh and make jokes with me.
Gently push me toward new experiences.
Try not to overreact to my overreacting.
What I Like About Being a SIX
being committed and faithful to family and friends
being responsible and hardworking
being compassionate toward others
having intellect and wit
being a nonconformist
confronting danger bravely
being direct and assertive
What's Hard About Being a SIX
the constant push and pull involved in trying to make up my mind
procrastinating because of fear of failure; having little confidence in myself
fearing being abandoned or taken advantage of
exhausting myself by worrying and scanning for danger
wishing I had a rule book at work so I could do everything right
being too critical of myself when I haven't lived up to my expectations
SIXes as Children Often
are friendly, likable, and dependable, and/or sarcastic, bossy, and stubborn
are anxious and hypervigilant; anticipate danger
form a team of "us against them" with a best friend or parent
look to groups or authorities to protect them and/or question authority and rebel
are neglected or abused, come from unpredictable or alcoholic families, and/or take on the fearfulness of an overly anxious parent
SIXes as Parents
are often loving, nurturing, and have a strong sense of duty
are sometimes reluctant to give their children independence
worry more than most that their children will get hurt
sometimes have trouble saying no and setting boundaries

Your result for The 3 Variable Funny Test...
the Cutting Edge
CLEAN | SPONTANEOUS | DARK
Your humor's mostly innocent and off-the-cuff, but somehow there's something slightly menacing about you. Part of your humor is making people a little uncomfortable, even if the things you say aren't themselves confrontational. You probably have a very dry delivery, or are seriously over-the-top.
Your type is the most likely to appreciate a good insult and/or broken bone and/or very very fat person dancing.

i want my books back, mom.
because, really, those are the books i love. i never really got into adult books. and not even just because they are often lacking in pictures. because i super loved the littles and the boxcar children, and those weren't really illustrated. but the pictures did help.
this was only just prompted by watching "meet the robinsons" and really appreciating that i recognized everything as being from the book(s). and it really really made me miss my books. and i want them back. one day, i will pass them on to my kids, but until that day, i want to savor them. so thanks, mom, for always spending way too much at book fairs. and i curse middle school and the internet for pulling me away from books...
how i love thee, dinosaur bob, nimby, the funny thing, roald dahl, dr. desoto, elephant goes to a party, streganona, mufaro's beautiful daughters, madeleine l'engle, the story of poppyseed, and many more. you'll always hold a super special place in my heart. perhaps more special than is healthy. :)
