So, I was taking a break from studying, since today has declared itself officially to be the day off, since I was woken at 9:30, AND THEN 10:30 by a FLY, which kept buzzing around my head and continues to do so ALL DAY, and I found this quiz on the internet for a children's site, which asked, "Which kind of animal are you?" Me thinking this would be mildly info-tational, decided to give it a shot, here are some of the common results:
Are you a good swimmer?
Not particularly / Yes, very good
Not particularly
Do you think you're specially cuddly?
Of course I am! / not particularly
Of course I am!
Are you tall for your age?
Yes / No
No.
Do you like to eat meat?
A little or none / Yes, a lot
Yes, a lot
You're a puppy!
*******
?!?
What??? I went back and checked the other answer, which was, 'are you tall for your age', clicked 'yes' and then came to this baffling question:
Do you like playing in the snow?
No, I love the sun and the sand! / Yes, I love snowball fights!
No, I love the sun and the sand!
You're a brown bear!
********************
?!?!??!?
What? Have these people ever seen a brown bear? What the crap? Do they not realize that, according to my knowledge, brown bears generally avoid large bodies of water like lakes and seas, therefore nullifying the idea that if you liked sun and sand, you would be a brown bear??? Not to mention that brown bears take cover from the heat during the day, because, well, they're really quite fat and big, which means big body heat, and they have a fur coat of hugeness. I don't know many kids that would actually agree with anything these people said on their site. I mean, really, even cartoon and child-geared documentaries show bears in their natural habitat, which does not include them lying on the beach under an umbrella. And since when are brown bears tall? They're not regularly bipedial, and just because they can stand up on two legs does not make them tall. AUGH! That's like saying a crocodile is tall, or a really big fish is tall because it's long and large.
Sigh. What are they teaching kids these days. Honestly.

The quiz knew that you were trying to confuse it, so it simply gave you a pat answer.
