OT - How Normal Are You?
 

Here's an interesting (and silly) little quiz. I have to wonder what their criteria for "normal" is...

http://www.blogthings.com/hownormalareyouquiz/

Apparently I'm 45% normal :?:

While some of your behavior is quite normal...
Other things you do are downright strange
You've got a little of your freak going on
But you mostly keep your weirdness to yourself :s:


I did this on a different message board (not weight related) and there was a discussion of the answers. I asked the ones who had high rates of "normality" how they had answered the questions "Would you rather gain 150lbs. or be hit by a truck?", "What do you find harder to control: How much money you spend or your weight?" and "You are more likely to stop wearing something because: its gone out of style or it doesn't fit anymore?"

I think my answers to those questions did me in (after all, they didn't say you get killed in the truck accident!) :dizzy:

You Are 70% Normal
(Really Normal)

Otherwise known as the normal amount of normal
You're like most people most of the time
But you've got those quirks that make you endearing
You're unique, yes... but not frighteningly so!

Woot, I'm normal :D

You Are 60% Normal
(Really Normal)

Otherwise known as the normal amount of normal
You're like most people most of the time
But you've got those quirks that make you endearing
You're unique, yes... but not frighteningly so!

That's me - The normal amount of normal!! :twirly:

You Are 50% Normal
(Somewhat Normal)

While some of your behavior is quite normal...
Other things you do are downright strange
You've got a little of your freak going on
But you mostly keep your weirdness to yourself

'bout right :)

This scares the :censored: outta me that I'm the most normal thusfar. You guys must be real freaks :p

You Are 75% Normal
(Really Normal)

Otherwise known as the normal amount of normal
You're like most people most of the time
But you've got those quirks that make you endearing
You're unique, yes... but not frighteningly so!

You Are 55% Normal
(Somewhat Normal)

I too found the spending/controlling your weight question a tough one as was the truck/gaining weight one.

It seems I'm 20% Normal. My hubby says they're exaggerating. :rofl:

"You sure do march to your own beat...
But you're so weird, people wonder if it's a beat at all
You think on a totally different wavelength
And it's often a chore to get people to understand you"

I went back and did it with the truck thing both ways. I got 55% normal if I'd rather be hit by a truck, and 50% normal if I'd rather gain 150 lbs. Go figure!

Whew, at least I've lost my most freakiest status (thanks to Ali) :lol:

50% normal from this test point of view...

As Obi Wan Kenobi once told Luke Skywalker, everything in lif revolves around the point of view

(Sorry, Star wars fan;)

I am 55% normal (somewhat normal)

Sounds right to me...;)

Linda

I'm 45% normal - about what I expected :)

Well Jill, I'm the same as you... 45%. I'm not really too sure what that means... lol. I think weird IS normal now!

Lies! All lies! :lol:

Ditto, I'm 50% normal. I'd like to see what they consider the most normal answers.

55%- I'm DEFINITELY weirder than that, this test must be rigged! :lol:

55% normal and this test in bunk if Kimberley is 50% normal :D :dizzy: :s:

Seeing as most of this selection of people came out between 45% -55% normal, and this is now the norm, the definition of normal is not correct!!!

Who buttons their shirts from the bottom up????

Ummmm, I do... And to think we got the same score :lol: :p :s:

Oh no!!!! I hope you don't change your towels every day!!!!!

Me myself I'm 50% normal
Bust that!!!!!!!!!!!!! And from what I see most of us came in 40's to 60's range and I'm right in there, so guess what I'm Normal. And no I don't change my towels everyday, I have 4 kids and a husband, do you know how many towels that would be. You do the math......

Hey, it's just the two of us, and we've never changed our sheets or our towels daily!

I confess, I grab a new towel every day!! :) Sheets are only changed once a week!

65% normal - who knew?

I took the gain of 150 lbs - can't stand the thought of pain and/or having to have my knee replacements replaced. No question controlling wt gain is harder for me than controlling spending. And I replace towels daily, button from bottom down. Now if they only gave us some numbers on which answers hit "normal", whatever that is.

I'm 70% normal :fr: . Perish the thought.

As boring as I am, if I'm 70% or normal I don't have anything to look forward to.

I change my towels every day. All but one of my brothers was in the military where they picked up the habit of not doing that and it drives me crazy. I visit them and they complain that I'm using too many towels; they visit me and get mad when their towels disappear off the rack. I have this thing about feet and the thought of using the same towel I used to dry my feet yesterday to dry my face today....euwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww yuck!

Could it be true? I am 60% normal.

Yes, I change the towels daily. Need a clean patch of towel for all parts each and ever time. Normal or not, that is me. Sheets - yep, once a week washing and yes, I am environmentally unfriendly and use the dreaded "bleach" in my wash. Sorry, only a quarter cup but things must be clean. I am not Howard Hughes, but I am particular. By the way, the same applies to undies and clothing - one wear then wash. I bath and wash my hair daily too - being that we are getting personal now. So, there you have it. Clean and weird. I thought it only fair to fill in the blanks on my other idiosyncracies!
