Economic Left/Right: -1.75
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -0.26

Ditto with other users ... The options didn't always capture my true thoughts AND ... Buggered if I know what my scores mean as to where I stand (don't really GAF either)!

Surely there was room for a question or two on beer in that???

Not sure what that means in the scheme of things, but I think ASIO are on their way to pick me up.

-3
-0.67

but i really had no idea about a few and i doubt that its accurate, rarely did i choose 'strongly'....i think my scores should have a '+' in front of them ;)

i agree that some should have had a 'dont give a fk' option, usually the ones about humanity and corporations ;)

You're right, if you don't give a fk about humanity, your score should have a + in front of it.

"You cannot be moral without being religious."

Excuse my ignorance - I just can't see anyone actually believing this could be true.

That's close! The only thing we seem to disagree on is footy teams, as you have reasonable taste in music IIRC.

By the way you grab the berets,I'll grab the Gitanes, and I'll meet you at The Exeter! :P :lol:
