The title is inspired by Little Caesars Pizza . That was my favorite chain when I was a lot younger. I assure you, they don't taste the same now. More's the pity. Just another case of expanding too fast and losing quality control. :-( The pizza theme is occuring due to a quiz I took on OK Cupid. Here's what the quiz concluded about me: The Pizza Geek You are a pizza geek. You're well-versed in the history of pizza, the regional variations of pizza, the varieties of crust styles and topping options, or all of the above. If you aren't sharing your next pizza with a fellow pizza geek, though, you may want to make sure they'll enjoy hearing selections from your vast trove of pizza trivia before you start geeking out. And here's the actual score I received: 80% Traditional, 58% Experimental, 87% Self-Aware, 81% Assertive, 75% Pizza-Geek, 62% Healthy, 60% Regional, 50% Special and 63% Picante! The OK Cupid member with the name WonderfulLap devised the test and ...

Here's the results of two tests I took at Hello Quizzy (a site from the same folk that do okCupid). At the bottom of each is a link to the test if you want to take it, and there's plenty of other quizzes there should you feel like something of a different nature. Enjoy! Your result for The Tits, Ass, and Cuteness Test... Curvy and Naughty Raw score: 63% Big Breasts, 64% Big Ass, and 60% Cute! Thanks for taking the T and A and C test! Based on your selections, the results are clear: you show an attraction to larger breasts , larger asses , and cuter composures than others who've taken the test. Note that you like women overall curvier than average . My third variable, "cuteness" is a mostly objective measure of how innocent a given model looked. It's determined by a combination of a lot of factors: lack of dark eye makeup, facial expression, posture, etc. If you scored high on that variable, you are either really nice OR you're into deflowering teens. ...

Now, don't peek at that picture until after you take the quiz! Teresa sent me this interesting quiz . It determines whether you're a man or a woman, food preferences wise. No need to go out and get different clothes if your indicated gender is surprising, the results are statistical only and certainly not legally binding. Of course if you're just looking for an excuse, feel free to go to town. For the sake of open disclosure, I was almost totally feminine on this. But I'm only moderately worried about that. I might prefer 9 out of 11 foods in the feminine way but I still don't like the color pink and I have no frilly underwear. And I'm willing to wear flannel--but not very often. The indicators are in that picture to the left but don't peek at the picture until you've taken the quiz. As you know, that'll lead to answer bias! A couple of those are close calls. Like horseradish versus cinnamon. I don't have either very often but I'd never want ...

Your Score: Border Collie You scored 75% Loyal and 72% Independant! You are most like this breed: Border Collie : Originated in Scotland/England border areas, this breed is intelligent, determined and brave, this dog forms a close bond with its family and is also eager to work. If not given work to do, the Border Collie will become badly behaved. It needs ample exercise, and its origin as a sheepdog and cattle-herder means that it is only happy when given specific tasks on a regular basis. They can't sit still and they want you to be right out there doing their task with them. They are the leaders and motivators of the dog world. With a little of this breed mixed in: Alaskan Malamute : Originated in Alaska, USA, this breed is friendly, affectionate, and loyal, but can have a mind of its own. The malamute is built to work well within a team, and its friendliness makes it unsuitable for a watchdog, but brave enough to pull 110% of the load. Once set in a direction these dogs ...

I took a few quizzes tonight on a University of Pennsylvania website. I found the linkage to it on Nina's blog, Reader . The site is run under the auspices of Dr. Seligman, the founder and director of the Positive Psychology Center at Penn. There's a number of quizzes there that relate to how you think and react emotionally to the world and other people. Be warned, you have to register on the site but it's free. I took the PANAS Questionnaire which measures positive and negative affect. To no great surprise I had equal scores (21 out of 50) on both positive and negative affect but since people in general are more positive than negative, relative to the population I'm very negative. Like I said, no surprise there. :-p There's a "Jealousy" test link on Nina's blog also. That one is located here . I was a little surprised to find that I scored a 38 since I tend to think of myself as being a lot less jealous than average, not just somewhat--but this tes...

Here's a quiz off of the okCupid website that I took a few days ago: Your Score: Epicurean Congrats, you seem to be more Epicurean than not. You believe in at least some of these: Empiricism: Trusting the evidence of the senses Atomism: Everything is made up of atoms Materialism: Everything is either matter or void Atheism/Agnosticism: God either doesn't exist or else probably doesn't care Epicurean Hedonism: The goal of life should be pleasure. However, Epicureans are more interested in intellectual pleasures and the happiness to be had through friendship than in sensual pleasures like eating, drinking, or sex. Epicureans defined pleasure as being a combination of "aponia" (lack of pain) and "ataraxia" (freedom from fear). Because of this, they concentrated intensely on overcoming the fear of death. Without the judgment of God or the fires of hell to worry about, this is actually a fairly simple matter. As Epicurus said: "Death is nothing to us....
