I don't know how many of you are Star Wars fans, but there's this personality test on the web that matches your various personality traits to the characters in Star Wars.
The URL is http://www.outofservice.com/starwars/
They separate the traits to Openness, Concientiousness, Extraversion, Agreeableness, and Neuroticism. It calculates the percentages of each trait that you have, and matches the percentage with a certain Star Wars character.
My highest percentage was in Neuroticism it seems (49%), and it matched me up with Chewbacca of all people! I swear I laughed til my sides hurt when I found out :)
I was highest in both agreeableness and neuroticism, being paired with Qui-Go Jinn in the agreeableness field and C-3P0 in the neuroticism field (and both scores were at the 66 percentile). Can you imagine? And all the rest rate me either in the middle or pretty low. So I'm an agreeable neurotic. Nice to meet you, too. ;)
If you use "Jane's method" (ie giving the same answer for every question, as seen in "It Happened One Nut") You get some neat results. (did I really try all 5 combinations--YES! Why? The answer is too stupid to go into)
the most interesting thing to me, though was that Admiral Ozzy (something) kept coming up. He's one of the admirals that screws up in "Empire" weird, huh?
-posted through Deja because...NO! the reason is too stupid....
Agreeableness very low (6 percentile) Emperor Palpatine
Neuroticism neither high nor low (43 percentile) Chewbacca
So evidently I'm creative, reckless, unsocial, cruel and manipulitive. Oh gee.

No, it doesn't surprise me a bit. And someone should redo the test so it's based on the Daria cast instead of the SW cast. Of course Jane would just answer the same for everything....

It's really funny. I got 96% neuroticism (Tuscan warrior), 90% openness (Yoda) , 89% conscientious (Ackbar) and 64% extraversion (Luke) and 1% agreeableness(the Emperor, I'm so evil :-). I am a man of the extremes. MSB
Hey, I put C for every answer and got 'Accountant'! Actually I don't remember my score...I think It was Agreeableness-Yoda that guy that looked like a fish Man montha er whatever. Luke for something...and R2d2 for neuroticism. I didn't even look at the percentages. Well looks like I took that for nothing...
My highest one was openness (93%) -- just like Yoda, I like to challenge the establishment, and teach people to unlearn what they have learned. I was also compared to Mon Mothma for being conscientious (74%), the ewoks for extraversion (59%), Darth Vader for agreeableness (50%) -- apparently I can be both very good and very evil-- what a concept! LOL!, and I was as neurotic as C3PO (71%) LOL!
Thank the Force do I that not like Jar-Jar Binks I am. A good quiz this is!
yoda-- er, I mean, rich. Quinn: People are so weird!
Daria: Some are weird. Some are just astonishingly self-centered and deceitful.
i got 99% for neuroticism... i am a tuscan warrior... haha. my lowest scores were for agreeableness, conscientious, and extraversion - all 4%, so that makes me like emperor palpatine, wampas and han solo.. and then i got 39% for openness, like uncle owen and aunt beru.
having never seen star wars, though, i have no idea what any of that means. ;)

Well you ought to see Star Wars. The whole series. At least once. Just to know what everyone is talking about. We're talking cultural knowledge here. When lines and characters from a movie start entering the general lexicon it's pretty much required that everyone have seen it.
Anyway, I get:
Openness: Yoda, high (84 percentile)
Concientiousness: Mon Mothma, high (64 percentile)
Extraversion: Wampas, very low (9 percentile)
Agreeableness: Boba Fett, low (32 percentile)
Neuroticism: Princess Leia, very low (7 percentile)
Now could someone explain what I've learned that I didn't know before? And why I should care? I'll note that some of those scores might have been quite different years ago. I've learned a few things, changed a few things, that would have made some of those scores a little different. We learn as we go. For example, I've learned to be a lot more extroverted than I used to be.
So should I try to become a neurotic people-person or should I try to become less creative, less reliable, and more disagreeable? I can do disagreeable.
I don't know whether to feel impressed or insulted.
BTW, is that how you spell extroversion? Oh yeah, I see, it can be either way.
Gee, I was compared to Yoda, Admiral Ackbar, Wampas, Emperor Palpatine, and Tuscan Warriors. My highest was Neuroticism (97%) while my lowest was extraversion (3%). Maybe that's why I've posted 5 messages in two years..

Yeah, though not to the point I'll sit in line for 3 months :)
An astromech for openness (41%) Han Solo for conscientiousness (8% - I have a different view on committment :) a Wampas for extroversion at a whopping 1% lol, agreeable as Emporer Palpatine (3%) and am as neurotic as Princess Leia (3%)
Well, OK, I'll take the stupid test.... *10 minutes later*
All right, I'm as Conscientious as Han Solo and as agreeable as agreeable as Emporer Palpatine, which I believe says that I'm not a very nice person. But like Yoda in my openness I am, and Wampalike in extraversion as well. Oh yeah, and I'm as neurotic as a Tuscan warrior.
I just can't win, can I?

On Sun, 22 Aug 1999 18:08:09 GMT, some letters randomly coalesced from individual pixels, claiming to be from [email] (paperpusher), and it said:
I have the openness of Yoda, the conscientiousness of Han, the extraversion of a Wampas, the agreeableness of Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader, and the neroticism of Leia. I wasn't around for most of this thread, so would anybody care to repost their results?
So I'm a pretty conscientious, very agreeable, neurotic who's a little iffy on the openness realm but who isn't extremely people-oriented (unless you stick me in a place with other Duranies and/or Darianities). Ta-daaa!
On the mountaintop, [email] (Tarvok) spake thusly:

Fun test! Even if you don't really like Star Wars, you should check it out. Here's my scores...
opennes - 80 (Yoda) conscientious - 69 (Mon Mothma) extraversion - 1!!!! (Wampas)...okay...so I hide in a cave all day, got a problem with that???? :) agreableness - 10 (Emperor Palpatine) Maybe I'm not really hiding, but everyone just avoids me because I'm so evil... neuroticism - 87 (Tuscan Warrior) Hmmm....
Well...how nice...I just learned that I'm an evil, neurotic, shy nutcase. Thanks...I'm so proud.
