I'm not even going to get into how many inappropriate "quizzes" I came across on this particular website.

How Liberal Or Conservative Are You?

You Should Maybe Be Allowed to Vote

You got 6/15 questions correct.
You're somewhat in the know, but you're not as informed as you think you are.

Your political information is a little old or incorrect.
Consider studying up a bit before you cast you vote! You want to make sure you know where you stand.

Should You Be Allowed to Vote?

You Are 90% Feminist

You are a total feminist. This doesn't mean you're a man hater (in fact, you may be a man).
You just think that men and women should be treated equally. It's a simple idea but somehow complicated for the world to put into action.

Are You a Feminist?

You Are an Average American

You got 3/10 correct.
You know a little bit about America, but not enough to win a game show.
Hit the books, before you embarrass yourself.

Are You a Dumb American?

You Are Confident and Dominant

You are a very independent, do it yourself kind of person. You've had to rely on yourself.
You know how to be strong for yourself and the people you love. You have a protective streak.

You sometimes come off as a little assertive. You know what you want, and you're not afraid to go get it.
The only thing you require from people is that they're straight with you. You are ready for the truth.

The Tree Test

I find it amusing that I apparently have the historical and political knowledge of an "average American" when my score was abysmal (not that there's anything wrong with that; after all, I'm not an American). And as for the last one, and all others like it, it's illogical to think that answering a few innocuous questions or choosing a particular picture could say anything meaningful about your personality. Coincidentally, this particular one wasn't all that inaccurate-- except I don't have a protective streak.

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

Nothing. That's no reason not to mention it, especially since you're implying that I'm ignorant.

Besides, you arbitrarily insult me all the time. I thought I might as well do the same, with the added benefit of my words actually being true

I told you that it wasn't.

I was just pointing something out.

So? This is hardly a business meeting; sticking to the main point of the conversation isn't critical.

Oh please, almost all of the conversations here are casual. Even basic information-gathering exchanges are hardly of any real importance.

I have no reason to do business with you.

Because you're bemoaning the fact that I only consider this a casual conversation? You can't have it both ways; either it's casual or it's not.

You mean you're still in business mode when you're doing childish and immature things like making bets about me on the community? I feel sorry for your clients.
