    Default Will You Survive the Apocalypse --- The Stand, sort of

    I just wrote one of those online quizzes, and in so doing I used plot points from The Stand. The reaction I've generally received is that it's a cut above the usual malarkey, and it's a quick 20 questions. If you're interested:

    If not, no worries.

    I'm always interested on feedback, so let me know what you think. I'm always interested in improving it.

    Puuuhhhleeees, I'm just too plumb dumb & stupid to have my clock stopped by something that big.
    I'm the kinda guy who'll punch out bleeding to death after opening a can of tuna.
    It'll go somethng like this...

    RrrrRrrrRrrr
    "Hey Buster Brown, come on and get it!"
    "Ahh damn!"

    I drop the lid and go to pick it up.
    And that's when I'll bash my head into that draw (I've been meaning to fix that), as it pops open, just as I get my get my hands on the razor sharp metal.
    I'll fall onto the lid and jam it into my neck...which is fine...really, not much more than a gapeing scratch.
    Until about the time, my ever famished feline friend, my good 'ol pal Downtown Buster Brown happens upon the scene, wondering why his daily allotment of tuna is not being served in the manner a cat of his stature expects from a lowly talkin' monkey with questionable opposible thumb skills.
    Being the helpful sort (he doesn't mind at all helping himself is what I'm sayin'), he figures the best route to his fishy nirvana, would be to find out what the hells going on with his professional can opener (he also figures I slack off if he doesn't stay on top of the daily scheduled opening of the can), so being a carnivore with a keen nose for satisfaction, he goes for the throat and promptly swipes the tuna encrusted lid, exposing a nicked, but just previously plugged jugular.

    Bleeding out and hilarity ensues!

    Yep, that's just about how I figure it...apocalypse schmocalypse, Charlie the Tuna's what's gunnin' for me!

    Took the test. Did pretty good I guess. Actually I would not want to survive something Apolcolyptic. I have pretty good survival instincts however I would not want to deal with crazy people
