What's Your Pirate Name?

19 September 2007

In the spirit of International Talk Like a Pirate Day, why not ask yourself, "What's My Pirate Name?"

My pirate name is Mad Dog Roberts. According to the quiz, this is because I'm "part crazy, part mangy, all rabid, I'm the pirate all the others fear might just snap soon.

Word Association Game

7 September 2006

Today I was tagged by Jono over at *insert witty title here* to play a word association game.

Here are the five words provided for me, followed by my associations:

  • StickPost-It
  • BottleMessage
  • MintListerine
  • CameraLens
  • TrolleySan Francisco

I hereby dissolve myself from any conclusions anyone might make — trained or otherwise — regarding these thoughts from my subconscious. It's disturbing to me, however, that 3/5 of my answers are proper nouns. Two companies and one city. Perhaps I'm merely a product of television and advertisements. At least my Trolley answer wasn't Rice-A-Roni (the San Francisco treat).

And now, I pass the torch along to 5 more bloggers. Here are the 5 random words for them:

  • Kumquat?
  • Gobbledygook?
  • Lollygag?
  • Diphthong?
  • Masticate?

You can always count on me to be less traditional and more eccentric than the rest.

And here are the five bloggers I am tagging:

Of course, these five wonderful people are obligated to post their responses on their own blog, choose five new words, and tap five other people to play!

OK, so I cheated and picked not-so-random words. All the words I selected were from my list of 100+ Fun Words to Say. So sue me! (Disclaimer: By "sue," what I really mean is "place no legal action against.")

 

Which Superhero Are You?

29 July 2006

I am Superman!

I'm Super!

You are mild-mannered, good, strong and you love to help others.

  1. Superman: 70%
  2. Green Lantern: 65%
  3. Hulk: 60%
  4. Spider-Man: 60%

I'm not sure I can agree with the results of this quiz, as I'm not particularly given to helping others. Perhaps the quiz sensed that I was currently participating in Blogathon and gave me bonus points in this category. Oh, and I'm not strong, either. 2 out of 4 ain't bad, I guess.

Of course, I was hoping for a more extensive, geekier quiz that took a few dozen superheroes into account. Perhaps there's one out there, waiting for the right time to show me which superhero I am!

Perhaps I should have applied to be on Who Wants to Be a Superhero?!

Interested in finding out which superhero you are? Take the Superhero Personality Quiz!

Meme: My Linguistic Profile

27 June 2005

Woe is me! I've given in to the meme craze! Will you ever forgive me?

I guess I'll have to accept this phenomenon and set some rules for myself. Oh well, I guess it was bound to happen sooner or later.

Your Linguistic Profile:

70% General American English
15% Upper Midwestern
15% Yankee
0% Dixie
0% Midwestern
What Kind of American English Do You Speak?

Well, there it is, out on the table. Will you still respect me?

Perhaps the more television you watch, the greater your GAE score becomes. I'm sure there are plenty who would disagree, and I'm sure they are correct.
