Hm, doesn’t look like I hit too many. Like I said, I have a problem with escalators, I can’t handle dissection or a lot of injuries (kind of shot my medical ambitions there), and I have real issues with rotting/rotten or moldy food. There’s one recent memory I have of some fuzzy nachos that I could use to psychosomatically induce vomiting (and almost did). I also have some fairly big fears with feeling like I’m not in control of a given situation.

‘Ninjinuity’ is my new favorite word

Via Bronze Dog, PZ, and Austin Atheist. I’ll admit, I’d kind of been hoping for Pirate (praise be to His Noodliness), but this is just as cool.

Rogue Ninja

You scored 7 Honor, 5 Justice, 3 Adventure, and 8 Individuality!

You are as quiet as the wind, deadly as a viper and you follow no master. You are a Rogue Ninja. Let no one say you are without honor, lest they meet a quiet and questionable end.

Dress as you like and keep your knives close. You’ll do just fine
