I'd like to submit this quiz to the weblogging masses:
How much of an 18th-century neoclassical satirist are YOU?!?
Sure there might be some issues with the fairness of the results -- I'm sure most people will probably take the quiz with their favorite satirist in mind -- "hmm, how would Alexander Pope answer that question?"
But, on the plus side, all the kids would want to know where you got this cool button:
But of course, I haven't created an actual quiz.
I just don't think our server could handle the traffic.
Oh, but someone needs to make the quiz somewhere. In the past week, I've found out what percentage of me is a geek and a punk (fuali), what animal I am (herbiv), and how much of sexual being I am (some goddess site). If I knew how much of an 18th-century neoclassical satirist I am, I might be able to show my face at my class reunion! Please make this quiz, someone, so I can add to my online resume...

Damn, I'd kill to be Voltaire... but I'd probably end up as "Anonymous poxy pamphlet writer, corner of Towne and Wixende".

If you were Voltaire, my Western Civilization professor would be your biggest fan. :)

although I'm proud to pretend this would be the philosopher that best represents me, I'm afraid I would get the "raving lunatic on the streetcorner".

Style over substance, I say! I'm gonna take the .gif and run with it. I like the idea of messing with people's minds just enough to try this one.
Thanks Mena. ;)
