30 out of 40

I wonder if there is somehting about bike types that puts us in the higher percentage...

A number of the questions didnt seem to apply or just seemed wrong. Downhill sking is a good way to end up on crutches, but I'd still have a go!
Most movie plots can be worked out pretty early on and oretty much everyone has something that makes them sparkle in conversation.

pah! Poor test!

Thrill and adventure seeking - you score 9 out of 10
Experience seeking - you score 8 out of 10
Disinhibition - you score 8 out of 10
Boredom susceptibility - you score 5 out of 10

This one is slightly better, but still flawed...

I got 33.5 out of 44 - I figure thats the first time someone has called me mature without the 'im' sound at the start of it...

Interesting quiz... unlike some others I didn't find the test questions to be of a "polarized" nature, but rather found that the majority of them had clear and easy answers, knowing in each situation I would continue to act very much as I have in the past. neat stuff :D

just over the past couple days i was lucky enough to start myself off on some new endeavors, curtail some wackiness in things, take time to relax in a cosey and quiet environment, have an interesting chat with someone of similar values, and engage in something completely new to me... etc. etc. .. so even over these past few days many of the situations and values in this quiz have been coming into play. the funny part is the newest things i am doing are very common things many people have already done, yet i had never lucked into previously. seems all good to me.

that was fun. thanks for posting the quiz :D

Hmmm, I'd say interesting, but I'd rather stay IN the plane thankyou very much.

To many of those I would have chosen the midground. Sitting around talking is boring, but I don't really have fun at the parties where I end up dodging fist fights...
Of course I'm generalizing from a single example here, but everyone does that. At least I do.
