The Los Angeles Times wants you to pick images to find out who you really are:

Personality Quiz

Somehow I'm a bright spark, largely because there weren't enough pictures of napping...

[PDilemma]

Not even close. It says I'm a "hot shot" with extroverted tendencies.

[attyfan]

I'm a live wire.

[professordeb]

I'm a live wire - hahaha, yeah, right. With all the time I spend in front of a computer, I respectfully disagree.

[GarrAarghHrumph]

Here's what I got:

You're a Hot Shot

You have a strong appreciation of culture and of the world around you. You're ambitious and confident and you want it all- a brilliantly successful career, a fabulously varied social life and a happy home buzzing with energy and warmth. And why not? You have the drive and determination to achieve your goals as well as having lots of fun along the way. It's all about achieving the perfect life-work balance. Vacations are definitely a top priority and you love experiencing new destinations that offer the perfect combo of pampering and discovery.

[BlueRidge]

I tried it again and I'm still a bright spark. The description is about half right. I look on the bright side and I'm positive and enthusiastic, but heh about the strong work ethic, and ha at the busy social life.

"You like to be stimulated intellectually and actively seek debate and discussion." Yeah that works. "You have a passion for nature and animals." Okay. "You are always seeking out fun new adventures that will excite and inspire." PML, not quite...

all that from a selection of pictures, not bad...

[michiruwater]

I'm a Dynamo. It describes me extremely accurately.

[ChelleC]

Here's what I got:

You're a Dynamo

You tend to have quite traditional values. You're energetic and curious, with a love of life and an infectious enthusiasm for new adventures. Conscious of your place in the world, you like to stay informed about social and political issues and feel a duty to be environmentally responsible.

I'm energetic and curious, with a love of life and an infectious enthusiasm for new adventures.

[michiruwater]

Huh, my Dynamo paragraphs are slightly different. That's kind of awesome cause mine describes me more accurately than yours do but you can see how we would be similar.

You get a real buzz out of new experiences. You're energetic and curious, with a love of life and an infectious enthusiasm for new adventures.

[Southpaw]

I'm a Bright Spark. I'd say that's about right.

You really enjoy inventive and challenging experiences. You're positive and enthusiastic with a strong work ethic that means you strive to perform at the highest level in everything you do. Successful and confident, you have high levels of energy and believe that life is what you make it. You prioritize exercise and wellbeing as part of your commitment to living a healthy lifestyle. When it comes to pursuing your interests, you display great passion and commitment. You enjoy a busy social life and are thoughtful and generous, aiming to give something back to society whenever you can. But you also like to spoil yourself a little too...

[ChelleC]

Huh, my Dynamo paragraphs are slightly different. That's kind of awesome cause mine describes me more accurately than yours do but you can see how we would be similar.

That's very true, the main difference seems to be that mine mentions traditional values. And yeah, mine describes me better than yours would describe me.

I do like how yours mentioned recharging batteries. Mine didn't mention that, and it's something I definitely need.

It's interesting how we are very similar, but also very different.

[michiruwater]

Yeah, I'm guessing you picked... well, more traditional things, and I picked more technological and very modern things.

[BlueRidge]

I'm a Bright Spark. I'd say that's about right.

I'm thinking you are maybe a sparkier spark than I am...

[oleada]

Dynamo I like to think out of the box and I'm full of surprises. I'm energetic and curious, with a love of life and an infectious enthusiasm for new adventures.

I think it's relatively accurate.

[michiruwater]

I like this test.

[Southpaw]

I'm thinking you are maybe a sparkier spark than I am...

It's only the twinkle in my MK Phantoms that gives me the edge.

[BlueRidge]

It's only the twinkle in my MK Phantoms that gives me the edge.

I'm not even going to try to figure out what that means...

[rfisher]

Generous spirit.

Am not.

[michiruwater]

[emason]

Generous spirit.

Am not.

Ditto, ditto.
