Thank god they didn't ask about my choice of material at karaoke bars

More adventures with Google Ads.

First, a banner ad promising used Mercedes for people with bad credit.

And now, this:



I don't have a man, and if I did I'm pretty sure we'd both be gay by definition, so I asked Carrie to take this test for me.

Some of the questions are... not so subtle. (And would seem to be a better test for tranvestitism than homosexuality.)



Some, even less subtle than that. (Is your man a gay stereotype?)



What, with that list of musicians, committing ritual suicide isn't an alternative?

The test deemed "Carrie's man" safely heterosexual, although there were dark, suspicious mutterings about my fondness for cooking classes and show tunes.

I'm so relieved

Those other spices have nothing on you! You're warm, smart, and you make people feel really good (and with no side-effects!). You can be difficult to get to know and require a lot of those who try, but you're so totally worth it. *Sigh*

Your Superpower Should Be Invisibility

You are stealthy, complex, and creative. You never face problems head on. Instead, you rely on your craftiness to get your way. A mystery to others, you thrive on being a little misunderstood. You happily work behind the scenes... because there's nothing better than a sneak attack! Why you would be a good superhero: You're so sly, no one would notice... not even your best friends Your biggest problem as a superhero: Missing out on all of the glory that visible superheroes get

FQ (Feminism Quotient)

You Are 74% Feminist

You are certainly a feminist - whether you know it or not. You believe in gender equality, at least most of the time. You also believe there are a few exceptions.

Are You a Feminist?

The "exceptions" I probably got gigged on... I think the guy should pay on dates (sue me) and I object to women as, e.g., firefighters or infantry, so I can't say with honesty that I think women and men are equally suited for *every* job in the world.

Hat tip: Rachel, 84% Feminist
