The Small Vase Quiz

You Are Sophisticated

You are well known for your sense of style. You tend to influence others without even meaning to. You are a trendsetter and a spotlight stealer. Even when you're just laying low, people notice you. You may have a high social status, but you are still accessible. In fact, you are quite warmhearted. You are always ready to make a new friend, and you don't judge based on appearances.

P.S. Nice point about the Pepsi/Coke thing. My family calls all soft drinks "coke" even when they are not Coke. When I go to a restuarant and ask for a coke I really mean a Pepsi because I prefer Pepsi. When the server says they don't have Coke, but is Pepsi okay, I am actually glad.

Retro Pattern Test

You Are Unique

You are original and a total nonconformist. You take a lot of pride in doing your own thing. In fact, you can be downright defiant at times. You don't like anyone telling you what to do. While you are a rebel, you are also extremely tolerant and accepting. You think people should be themselves. You are laid back and easy going. You refuse to participate in the rat race, and you're better off for it.

Why'd I Rather Be Punched in the Testicles Than Call Customer Service

About hold music:  Once when I was on hold the hold music came straight from the radio.  It sounded like someone was holding the phone up to a radio.  Anyway, I would hear a person speak and I would get excited because I thought I'd finally got through to a customer service rep, but no, it was always just the DJ.  And then the commercials.  There is nothing more annoying than being on hold and having to listen to commercials.

6 Misleading Assumptions You Make About Quiet People

Assumption #2:  I get this all the time.  I am not angry and I'm not planning on killing anyone, this is just how my face looks. But now that you're making a big deal about my face I really am now angry and planning on killing you.

Assumption #1:  Since I am quiet, many people get the this weird notion that I am very deep and introspective and am an all around intelligent person.  Not true.  People always think I'm smart and they are always disappointed when they find out that I'm not.
