Faced with hardship, I will (apparently) sacrifice, in order:

1 Friendship.
2 Basic needs.
3 Children.
4 Pride.

…and I’ll keep my passion.

Not a very complimentary picture of me, I suppose, but sort of hard to argue with, if I’m functioning in a void.

Life isn’t about being in a void, though, and while my instict is definitely to favor my obsessions (passion) over other things in my life, I’ve pushed that instant instinct into the background to ‘do the right thing’ before, and I’m sure I will again.

The idea that Pride was the last to go… yeah, not flattering either, but pretty true. Ugh — I guess I should have lived life as an anti-social artist or something.

Personality Test: The Desert Test

Neat test. I sacrificed...

(Take the test before reading these, they include spoilers for the test)

1) Pride (Hey, I figured what the hell am I gonna do with a lion in the desert?)
2) Basic Needs (Figured I'd drink the milk and let ol' Bessie wander the desert)
3) Friendship (Who wants a sheep for a friend anyways?)
4) Passion (Uh. I'm thinking my wife will smack me if I get passionate with a horse)
5) My Children. Yup, that makes sense to me. My daughter, the monkey.

heh. pride was the first to go. same reasoning -- then passion, basic needs, friendship, and bebela.

monkeys and apes happen to be sacred in this house.

right up there with the buh-nnies.

I think my answers might have been slightly skewed by the undying, relentless hatred of sheep.

Farm life. It scars you.

Lessee...
Basic Needs first ... I live a simple spartan life (Dvd's aren't considered basic needs though are they?!?)
Pride next ... I had 2 older brothers that used to beat me up at the drop of a hat (points to Percy)
Then Friendship ... see above (my brothers used to beat up my friends too)
Monkey ... hrm, no kids here...but I thought the monkey was just too cute!
Passion ... I'm just a seething cauldron of passion baby!

1 Horse = passion (eh, who needs it anyway...)
2 Cow = basic needs (I just bought a house - most of those are gone to pay the mortgage ;-))
3 Monkey = children (don't have them anyway...)
4 Lion = pride (well, duh...)
5 You kept the Sheep. The Sheep represents friendship. Well, I've always thought that friendship was the most important of all... good guess, eh?

now, if there'd been a dang CHICKEN, and it'd symbolized all that was good and pure, world peace, an end to the war between the sexes, and a million bucks...screw it. i hate chickens.

Y'know, those representations were culturall biased. I'm Greek and Scottish, and dammit, the sheep represents basic needs and passion. ;-)
