Which book are you?

[Blushing Bottom]

You're Lolita!
by Vladimir Nabokov
Considered by most to be depraved and immoral, you are obsessed with sex. What really tantalizes you is that which deviates from societal standards in every way, though you admit that this probably isn't the best and you're not sure what causes this desire. Nonetheless, you've done some pretty nefarious things in your life, and probably gotten caught for them. The names have been changed, but the problems are real. Please stay away from children.

Now why doesn't that surprise me. I think Lolita and I were about the same age when my flirtatious behaviors got me in big trouble with a sliver tongued devil. So at least this being my fame I need not worry I'd be confused with a pedophile who are the least likely of any I deal with to get any favors from me.

Were I too choose, it would be The Scarlet Letter by Nathenial Hawthorn. You are obsessed with sex but with consenteing adults and not until overwhelmed by the passions of a strong man. You hold your love dear for this man and refuse to allow the world to denounce him at the risk of your own suffering. You have probably been ostracized by society as a whole and branded as a witch due the allure you have on the husbands of others.

Okay, I just took the country quiz (link at the end of the book quiz) and

You're Libya!
It seems that these days, you just say things to get attention. Shock value is the really important thing for you now. You used to have a cause, and this made you seem like a threat to the established order, but now you just want to say wacky stuff once in a while. Air travel doesn't really mesh with your lifestyle, and you'd probably scare the security guards somehow anyway.


Only about half of that's true. Now I want to go take the rest of them, but I should probably go to bed instead.

Oh, lord.

You're the United Nations!
Most people think you're ineffective, but you are trying to completely save the world from itself, so there's always going to be a long way to go. You're always the one trying to get friends to talk to each other, enemies to talk to each other, anyone who can to just talk instead of beating each other about the head and torso. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't, and you get very schizophrenic as a result. But your heart is in the right place, and sometimes also in New York.

No wonder I have ulcers.

You're The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
by Douglas Adams
Considered by many to be one of the funniest people around, you are quite an entertainer. You've also traveled to the far reaches of what you deem possible, often confused and unsure of yourself. Life continues to jostle you around like a marble, but it's shown you so much of the world that you don't care. Wacky adventures continue to lie ahead. Your favorite number is 42.

hehe, I actually think I've taken that quiz before and gotten the same book.

explains a lot eh?

 

[Kajira Callista]

the state quiz

You're New Hampshire!
You're obsessed with independence, and may even be a libertarian. For you, freedom means doing whatever you like without worrying about the petty concerns of others. You're a big fan of throwing out slogans that threaten those who might infringe on your freedom. And yes, everything is set in stone for you. You built your house on the granite. Sadly, your greatest material inspiration recently fell down and can never be rebuilt.
lol

animal quiz

You're a Koala!
Despite their many best efforts, no one can resist your cute and cuddly charms. With a disarming smile and a friendly nature, you melt even the hardest of hearts in a matter of minutes. Though this convinces many that you are just a teddy bear, you do have a serious side and are, in fact, nothing like a bear. You absolutely love chewing gum. You secretly believe yourself to be the inspiration for the Star Wars character Yoda.

You're Prufrock and Other Observations!
by T.S. Eliot
Though you are very short and often overshadowed, your voice is poetic and lyrical. Dark and brooding, you see the world as a hopeless effort of people trying to impress other people. Though you make reference to almost everything, you've really heard enough about Michelangelo. You measure out your life with coffee spoons.

Secomd time.
You're Mother Night!
by Kurt Vonnegut
Nobody knows what to believe about you, and you know least of all. You spent most of your time convinced that the ends justify the means, but your means were, well, downright mean! And the end is nigh. Meanwhile all you want is to travel back in time, if not to change, then to just delight in the way it used to be. You are who you pretend to be. Oh yes, you're the great pretender.

You're South Africa!
After almost endless suffering, you've finally freed yourself from the oppression that somehow held you back. Now your diamond in the rough is shining through, and the world can accept you for who you really are. You were trying to show who you were to the world, but they weren't interested in helping you become that until it was almost too late. Suddenly you're a very hopeful person, even if you still have some troubles.

You're Illinois!
With a passion for discourse and dialogue, you would make a great debater. In the old days, you wore a top hat and were rather tall, but taller people keep showing up and taking your titles. Now to feel tall, you have to head for the airport, which is always so busy that you can barely deal with it. When in doubt, blame all of your problems on someone else's cow.

 

[HawkEye38]

Les Miserables!
by Victor Hugo
One of the best known people in your community, you have become something of a phenomenon. People have sung about you, danced in your honor, created all manner of art in your name. And yet your story is one of failure and despair, with a few brief exceptions. A hopeless romantic, you'll never stop hoping that more good will come from your failings than is ever possible. Beware detectives and prison guards bearing vendettas.

Go figure...

 

[Unccwhitegurl]

I am the Sound of Fury....
by William Faulkner
Strong-willed but deeply confused, you are trying to come to grips with a major crisis in your life. You can see many different perspectives on the issue, but you're mostly overwhelmed with despair at what you've lost. People often have a hard time understanding you, but they have some vague sense that you must be brilliant anyway. Ultimately, you signify nothing.

Umm I dont know if i agree about the "signify nothing" part tho....

Yep. Not the first time you and I have scored the same on a test, either. LOL

Hmmm..

Not bad..
You're <i>Ulysses</i>!<br>
<font size="4">by James Joyce</font><br>
<i><font size="3">Most people are convinced that you don't make any sense, but compared
to what else you could say, what you're saying now makes tons of sense. What people do
understand about you is your vulgarity, which has convinced people that you are at once
brilliant and repugnant. Meanwhile you are content to wander around aimlessly, taking in
the sights and sounds of the city. What you see is vast, almost limitless, and brings you
additional fame. When no one is looking, you dream of being a Greek folk hero.</font>

You're Great Expectations!
by Charles Dickens
Coming from humble beginnings, you have become pretty stuck-up in your later years. While hard work and dedication were the path you first walked on, a sudden fork brought you glory and fortune. Unfortunately, you have changed even more than your bottom line. You really should turn back to your old friends and at least respect your old life. Look out for haughty hotties.

After a retake

You're Watership Down!
by Richard Adams
Though many think of you as a bit young, even childish, you're actually incredibly deep and complex. You show people the need to rethink their assumptions, and confront them on everything from how they think to where they build their houses. You might be one of the greatest people of all time. You'd be recognized as such if you weren't always talking about talking rabbits.

I’m so confused - but I do like that one line

 

[Shankara20]

I’m no longer confused - these last four answers sort it all out for me.

You're China!
Big and powerful, you have a long history behind you with more good and bad than you care to remember, or are really capable of remembering. Lately, in older age, you've gotten sort of crochety and even mean-spirited. There is still a lot that's beautiful about you, but most of the focus people have when they think about you is how hard it is to work with you. There's hope that you might start opening up to people, but lots of people have bumper stickers about how much you should change.

You're a Lion!
Wherever your particular jungle might be, you are considered king or queen. With a noble yet relaxed air, you are able to control those around you by implied threat of force. There are those that would attempt to tame you, or even call you yellow, but you know that you're far too bold for that. You've often been seen hanging out on the steps of public libraries. Your favorite US state is Maine.

You're Hawaii!
When they first meet you, few people can tell whether you want to say hello or goodbye. Either way, most of them will end up saying that you're their favorite person to visit, if only they could afford the trip. But your soft and warm image is belied by an explosive undercurrent in your personality than can leave you drenched with tears or boiling with anger for days on end. You are rather fond of using plants as clothing.

You're the Frontier Mail!
While your presence used to conjure up images of unexplored lands and exotic beauty, now you're fairly settled down. You now have a strange fascination with golden temples, making you almost reminiscent of Indiana Jones. And while you do like tigers and swashbuckling adventures, you prefer to consider things carefully and make democratic decisions. Sometimes, however, you consider going postal.

Just exactly when did the Panama Canal become a state?

About the same time that the United Nations became a country.

When Master took the country test, he got Texas, but when he took the state test, he got Alaska! I was also Watership Down, then the UK for my country and Alaska the state.

Are you telling me Texas isn't a different country? It sure seems like one.
Oh and I was Cat's Cradle and Egypt.

[Guest]

I don't even need to take the test: I'm Shel Silverstein's The Giving Tree.

 

[cellis]

Snowy, where do you find this tripe? I've never even heard of "One Hundred Years of Solitude!" and so I did the test again. I only changed one answer and it took me in a completely different direction. "Lolita!" I'm not into child porn, folks. Not even if it's Lolita. I'm NOT understainding this quiz.

The first discription says I've been around for a very long time. Come on, now. I'm only 52! Conflict has filled most of my life and torn apart nearly everyone I know? I'm a Dom. And I'm SS&C, too. This could give me a bad rep for sure.

You're One Hundred Years of Solitude!
by Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Lonely and struggling, you've been around for a very long time. Conflict has filled most of your life and torn apart nearly everyone you know. Yet there is something majestic and even epic about your presence in the world. You love life all the more for having seen its decimation. After all, it takes a village.

OR

Now this second one is more on target, but the line that states "What really tantalizes you is that which deviates from societal standards in every way," (I'll go with that) though you admit that this probably isn't the best and you're not sure what causes this desire. Not true! BDSM sex is the BEST and I know what causes this desire...I like to dominate and control women! I also LOVE anal sex!

This thing goes on to say "Nonetheless, you've done some pretty nefarious things in your life, and probably gotten caught for them. The names have been changed, but the problems are real. Please stay away from children."
OK. Yes, I've done my share of strange things, but I've never been caught. The names have been changed, because here I'm knonw as DVS. But, what are the problems...other than the women on collarme.

Two peas in a pod, DVS. I got the same answer... When I changed my answers I ended up with Sidhartha.... grrrr....
