What Color Is Your Name? Quiz

Your Name is Black

Your name tells people that you are serious and sophisticated. Your name makes you seem like a total mystery. You are elegant and a bit apart from everyone else. You are much more formal than those around you. People see you as smart and together. You also come off as a bit eccentric, and others respect that you are different from them. You can adapt well to most situations, but you never feel like you truly fit in anywhere.

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.

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.

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.
