That's pretty awesome, right there. (A meme)



Your brain: 0% interpersonal, 100% visual, 140% verbal, and 160% mathematical!




Congratulations on being 400% smart! Actually, on my test, everyone is. The above score breaks down what kind of thinking you most enjoy doing. A score above 100% means you use that kind of thinking more than average, and a score below 100% means you use it less. It says nothing about how good you are at any one, just how interested you are in each, relatively. A substantial difference in scores between two people means, conclusively, that they are different kinds of thinkers.


Matching Summary: Each of us has different tastes. Still, I offer the following advice, which I think is obvious:


  1. Don't date someone if your interpersonal percentages differ by more than 80%.
  2. Don't be friends with someone if your verbal percentages differ by more than 100%.
  3. Don't have sex with someone if their math percentage is over 200%.

See, I told you. No social skills. Also, I'm 40% away from unfuckable. My people, they are suspicious of such statements.

I find their unfuckable premise to be suspect. Anyone who'd write a quiz in which we get percentage-scores over 100% is not entitled to tell me what to do/not do based on mathematical talent.

The first two evaluation criteria are comparative -- how much are you similar to this other person. The math one is about absolute value, which suggests there is something inherently unsexy about quantitative geeks. I suspect the quiz-makers of bias based on feelings of inadequacy ;)

I like the way you think.

Yep.

They're just jealous of my numerical tendencies ...

Good call.
