Dark Bilious Vapors

But how could I deny that I possess these hands and this body, and withal escape being classed with persons in a state of insanity, whose brains are so disordered and clouded by dark bilious vapors....

10/05/2005: No surprises: more silly blog-quizzes....


Today's theme, geekish enthusiasms. (UPDATE: The first is especially appropriate today, since XM's historical trivia clip (verified by reference to the IMDB) informs us that today is the 36th anniversary of the UK premiere of Monty Python's Flying Circus.)

Of course, all geeks are supposed to be able to recite entire Monty Python skits from memory. If I'm not there, I'm certainly not far from it:

One of the Pythons
28 of 32!

You've seen them all--the movies and the TV show. You probably would
have gotten the questions I edited as well, but the test was getting
lengthy. You've either got an excellent taste in comedy or you're VERY
bored and are a good guesser. Thanks for taking my test (and if you've
scored this high, maybe you should be giving me tips on how to make it
better, heh).



My test tracked 1 variable How you compared to other people your age and gender:
free online datingfree online dating
You scored higher than 99% on pythonesque

But I'm a bit less passionate about Star Trek:

Trekkie Appreciator
Survey Says... You scored 66 %

You like Star Trek and have obviously watched more than a couple of
episodes or movies, but you don't live or breathe the world (read: you
probably don't go to your local McDonalds in your Klingon gear - not
that there's anything wrong with that...). Excellent! You've managed to
tread the fine line between sci-fi buff and Star Trek nerd (otherwise
known as the difference between enjoying Star Trek for its
entertainment value and running around with a batleth quoting Klingon
battle poetry).

Like this test? Then don't forget to rate it!!

Want more? How about some shameless self-promotion? I've also written other tests - check them out! You know you want to...
