Hmm. Apparently I'm Angelic. That'll surprise a few people I know...
Posted by: Ian Robinson | December 10, 2006 6:14 AM
"Which of the following European countries is your favorite, or with which do you most closely identify?"
one of the answers is Canada?
LOL.
maybe this is also a test of general intelligence?

uh, OK, i finished at 100% Pure Evil:
How evil are you?
...and I wasn't even trying. I bet saying I thought being a lawyer was a good thing counted toward mucho evilness.
oops.
Posted by: Ichthyic | December 10, 2006 6:22 AM
blew the link too somehow; must be my evilness leaking through to my coding...

"Hmm. Apparently I'm Angelic."
Same here.
BTW, I noticed Canada was listed as a "European" country. I suspect that probably is a joke.
Posted by: J. J. Ramsey | December 10, 2006 7:39 AM
I'm a wishy-washy "good." Probably shouldn't have listed "lawyer" as my ideal job. But they didn't give "mad scientist" (my actual and ideal job) as an option.

BTW, I noticed Canada was listed as a "European" country.
It's also listed as a "Favorite Weapon".
I know sometimes it's hard to tell humour from stupidity on the web, but I think we can safely assign this one to humour.
Pure Evil, and I am not a lawyer. But I am Canandian.

You're just using this to get more votes.
Phil is far more evil than thou. >;)

Here is a Xmas song that will undoubtedly please such an evil person, "Christmas Time in Hell".

I myself was only "twisted".
Posted by: bernarda | December 10, 2006 8:40 AM
Hmmm...well, I'm "good". Guess I don't watch the right kind of movies or something (but they didn't offer a choice of "what's a movie" since I'd rather read a good book any day...)
Posted by: Maggie Rosethorn | December 10, 2006 9:20 AM
I came up as "pure evil" also, even though I wasn't trying!! Just out of curiousity, I went back and changed one answer... changed the type of browser that I'm using from IE to Firefox, and that dropped my evil score to "mostly evil."
So, I guess if you bow to the spawn of Bill Gates, well, you're as evil as can be.
Posted by: rjb | December 10, 2006 9:41 AM
How evil are you?
Apparently you still require training.
Posted by: Evolving Squid | December 10, 2006 9:43 AM
I'm "Neutral."
Posted by: Cathy in Seattle | December 10, 2006 9:46 AM
Good?
{hangs head in shame and sighs}
Oh well, could be worse. It could have been 'nice'.
I blame it on the Canada fixation this test has. Everybody knows we're good. It's the cross we bear.
Posted by: bPer | December 10, 2006 9:51 AM
Do not despair, oh ye lawyers.
I am rated 100% angelic, and I too chose lawyer as the best of a bad lot of choices.
I suspect the damn thing is pretty much random, or else broken.
As for Canada, if the United State could be part of NATO, SEATO, etc. all at the same time, I expect Canada can be part of Europe.

My result.
It's discrimination, I tell you! Discrimination against people with hamsters in their heads!
Posted by: Martin Brady | December 10, 2006 10:54 AM
100% pure evil. Take that PZ. :-)
*pinky to lip*
Posted by: Boosterz | December 10, 2006 10:56 AM
I never thought of myself as living in a weapon. Kinda like the idea. I would like to smite some other countries. If Canada were a weapon what would it be?
Posted by: remy | December 10, 2006 11:08 AM
How the hell did I freakin' end up as "Angelic?"
Posted by: Pat | December 10, 2006 11:40 AM
How evil are you?
Should I have answered 'Canada' more?
Posted by: A Teapot | December 10, 2006 11:55 AM
"Angelic"? Moi?
Posted by: theophylact | December 10, 2006 12:41 PM
"Aaaah! you are one creepy soul."
PZ- "I don't HAVE a soul. MWUAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!"
Posted by: TAW | December 10, 2006 2:20 PM
I was 78% evil. Apparently, my friends are both scared of and for me.
Posted by: BigHeathenMike | December 10, 2006 2:45 PM
I'm merely Twisted. Mere cosmic cowinky dink due no doubt to a hangover from my Twisted Sister phase during the 80s? That makes it all seem worthwhile now:)
Posted by: An Enquiring Mind | December 10, 2006 3:55 PM
I came out "neutral." Actually, I prefer one of my friends' take on it. In her apartment she has a sign saying:
333. I'M ONLY HALF EVIL.
Posted by: anomalous4 | December 10, 2006 3:58 PM
Hmph! I had to pick "Actor" as an ideal profession since "Layabout" wasn't an option.
Posted by: Tukla in Iowa | December 10, 2006 6:09 PM
What the hell? Supposedly, I'm 100% Angelic ergo 0% Evil.
Posted by: A,Y, | December 10, 2006 6:45 PM
That was mine too.
We're two evil peas in a pod.

Come on, PZ, fess up: you're secretly running a PC with MSIE in a locked attic room, aren't you?
Posted by: Peter Barber | December 10, 2006 8:30 PM
Cool, I'm twisted. I aways thought so.
Posted by: afterthought | December 10, 2006 9:10 PM
I answered the same way twice, and was evil the first time and good the second. This test seems about as predictive as intelligent design.

As for Canada being a weapon, McArthur (the odd chap who ruled us during world war two) described Australia as being an unsinkable aircraft carrier.
Posted by: Ronald Brak | December 11, 2006 12:15 AM
I guess that makes Canada a large and hard to bomb base, Ronald Brak. (There are co-run installations here, some legacy from the cold war.)
