Your result for The Personality Defect Test …
Haughty Intellectual
You are 71% Rational, 43% Extroverted, 14% Brutal, and 86% Arrogant.
You are the Haughty Intellectual. You are a very rational person, emphasizing logic over emotion, and you are also rather arrogant and self-aggrandizing. You probably think of yourself as an intellectual, and you would like everyone to know it. Not only that, but you also tend to look down on others, thinking yourself better than them. You could possibly have an unhealthy obsession with yourself as well, thus causing everyone to hate you for being such an elitist twat. On top of all that, you are also introverted and gentle. This means that you are just a quiet thinker who wants fame and recognition, in all likelihood. Like so many countless pseudo-intellectuals swarming around vacuous internet forums to discuss worthless political issues, your kind is a scourge upon humanity, blathering and blathering on and on about all kinds of boring crap. If your personality could be sculpted, the resulting piece would be Rodin’s “The Thinker”–although I am absolutely positive that you are not nearly as muscular or naked as that statue. Rather lacking in emotion, introspective, gentle, and arrogant, you are most certainly a Haughty Intellectual! And, most likely, you will never achieve the recognition or fame you so desire! But no worries!
To put it less negatively:
1. You are more RATIONAL than intuitive.
2. You are more INTROVERTED than extroverted.
3. You are more GENTLE than brutal.
4. You are more ARROGANT than humble.
Compared to other takers
- You scored 71% on Rationality, higher than 65% of your peers.
- You scored 43% on Extroversion, higher than 41% of your peers.
- You scored 14% on Brutality, higher than 13% of your peers.
- You scored 86% on Arrogance, higher than 95% of your peers.

I have to admit, as far as personality tests goes, I think this one’s pretty hilariously spot-on. Obviously, it’s about seeing your personality in a negative light (see, that’s what makes it funny…moron.) and I don’t *really* think I’m an elitist twat. At least not always.
Can you imagine yourself, swimming peacefully in the beautiful blue ocean, and seeing something with a mouth this big come swimming up next to you? Kind of makes Jaws look like a bath toy. It might kind of look like this: 
Doesn’t that just give you the heebie-jeebies, just a little bit? Luckily, Turtle and Bug were much more fascinated than scared, and the whole exhibit was really interesting for the whole family, and very doable in one morning. I even wrote a review! 
A little music in the background helps the day go by…so this is a rather eclectic mix of songs.
Why do I love this song so much?
Well I’ve heard there was a sacred chord
That David played and it pleased the Lord
But you don’t really care for music, do you?
Well it goes like this…the fourth, the fifth
The minor fall
And the major lift,
The baffled King composing Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Well, your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing low on the roof
Her beauty in the moonlight overthrew you.
And she tied you to her kitchen chair
She broke your throne
She cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Well baby I have been here before
I’ve seen this room, and I’ve walked this floor
You know, I used to live alone before I knew you.
And I’ve seen your flag on the marble arch
Love is not a victory march
It’s a cold and it’s a broken Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Well there was a time when you let me know
What’s really going on below
But now you never show that to me, do you?
And remember when I moved in you
The holy dove was moving too
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Well maybe there is a God above
But all I’ve ever learned from love
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you.
And it’s not a cry that you hear at night
it’s not somebody who’s seen the light
it’s a cold and it’s a broken Hallelujah, Oh
Hallelujah, Oo Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Sunday we visited the Baltimore Aquarium. It was a great trip–the kids loved pretty much every second of it. We saw the dolphin show, zillions of fish (“Ish! Ish!” Baby Bug says), and even a few sharks.
Here’s daddy and baby bug, posing for the camera.
Here’s our big boy, in front of one of the fish tanks. He was too interested in the fish to want to waste time smiling, so this was as well as we could get him to pose!
We also saw the “4D” film they were playing. Not so much a hit with the kids; every time we got sprayed with water, baby bug started crying again. About halfway through, Kerem turned to me and said, “Mommy, I don’t want to watch this anymore” in a very serious, small little voice. Unfortunately we were right in the middle of a very crowded row, so there was really nothing we could do except wait out the last few minutes.
They recovered pretty quickly and were running around and having fun for the rest of the day.
