How am I Funny to You?
Filed Thursday, September 7 2006.

Despite, as this site suggests, liking to think about myself, I'm not normally a big fan of online tests. Certainly not of the sort that categorizes you into some type. ("The Star Wars personality sorter says you're C3PO!")

Nonetheless, on a friend's recommendation, I took OkCupid's 3 Variable Funny Test, and was surprised to see the description it yielded was pretty much dead on:

Type: The Cutting Edge

Your humor's mostly innocent and off-the-cuff, but somehow there's something slightly menacing about you. Part of your humor is making people a little uncomfortable, even if the things you say aren't themselves confrontational. You probably have a very dry delivery.

Your type is the most likely to appreciate a good insult and/or broken bone and/or very very fat person dancing.

Ah, very very fat person dancing; I laugh out loud each I time I even read that phrase.
