Janine "Iris Ophelia" Hawkins' ongoing review of gaming and virtual world style
There's yet another online quiz making the rounds... At least it's making the rounds in Second Life's narrow little slice of the internet. "What Second Life Thing Are You?" is not a quiz for the faint of heart or the fragile of ego, and you should only venture down its dimly-lit corridor of questions if you have an extremely healthy sense of humor about yourself and your hobbies.
Even so, it's a brief hit of nostalgia and a couple bitter chuckles (at your own expense) to brighten up your afternoon, so give it a shot.
As for my results...
You spend an extraordinary amount of time on absolute bullshit that never comes to fruition. Your accomplishments are NOTHING compared to the hours you spent on them. Great job. You've pissed away your entire life.
Welp. Happy Tuesday!

I am "that one torch on orientation island":
People use you to get where they need to go, and they never contact you again. You're easily forgettable, not pleasant to look at, and you've been grabbed by a shit ton of people. You're gathering dust now, and nobody remembers you.
Ouch. I mean, ha ha.

Same as Arcadia. Well, this wasn't a feel-good thing at all. :(

Same as Arcadia too. Are we sure there are other responses?

"Remember when Tevas were popular, let's recreate that except with a fucking EYE in the middle of the hand instead of that little swirly thing, that would be really cool." --you. You're unoriginal, uninspired, and try to rip off everything that you think might make you look trendy."
Oh yeah, that's me...must have been my love for cupcakes, eh? ;)

I kept wanting to say "none of the above" for all of the questions. Not enough variety in the answers. Finally it said -- you are a downer, you rain on every parade -- well thank you very much -lol

@Tracy: I got that, too. Joining the ranks of the uninspired cupcake hounds. XD

I got "Anon Plurk" with the text outlining why I actually left.
