Perhaps.

When others are getting rattled, do you remain fairly composed?

That depends.

Do you browse through railway timetables, directories, or dictionaries just for pleasure?

Yes...

When asked to make a decision, would you be swayed by your like or dislike of the personality involved?

It depends what sort of decision. I guess that's a maybe.

Two or fewer!!!

No.

Do you get occasional twitches of your muscles, when there is no logical reason for it?

Nope.

Would you prefer to be in a position where you did not have the responsibilities of making decisions?

Yea.

Are your actions considered unpredictable by other people?

It depends what people. And what actions.

Do you consider more money should be spent on social security?

Did the author of this test consider more time should be spent writing meaningful sentences?

No (to both questions).

Do other people interest you very much?

They sometimes do. In general, however, they just interest me much.

Yes, unless I'm singing...

Do you normally let the other person start the conversation?

I always let the other person start the conversation.

Are you readily interested in other people's conversations?

Yes.

The idea wouldn't, but I might decide not to as a consequence of the idea.

Are you often impulsive in your behavior?

LOL no.

Do you speak slowly?

I...often...do...that,...yes....

Are you usually concerned about the need to protect your health?

Maybe.

Does an unexpected action cause your muscles to twitch?

It depends on whether or not I'm the one who made the unexpected action. I say maybe.

Are you normally considerate in your demands on your employees, relatives, or pupils?

Well, sometimes I try to read in the dark, and my poor pupils just can't open wide enough....

This is the type of question best left for others to answer, but I'd say maybe.

Do you consider that you could give a valid 'snao judgment ?

Wait, what? I guess that would be a no?

Yes.

Do you find yourself being extra-active for periods lasting several days?

No, though I'm not really sure what is being asked here.

Do you resent the efforts of others to tell you what to do?

Often. I can't decide if that's a yes or a maybe. I guess that probably means it's the latter.

Is it normaly hard for you to 'own up and take the blame'?

Yes, although I didn't take the non-word into account when answering.

Do you enjoy telling people the latest scandal about your associates?

No.

Sometimes.

Do you find it easy to express your emotions?

Only the negative ones...

Do you refrain from complaining when the other person is late for an appointment?

Yes.

Are you sometimes considered by others a "spoilsport"?

Not in the slightest.

Do you consider there are other people who are definitely unfriendly toward you and work against you?

No, but I do consider this construction may be normal outside of my dialect.

Would you admit you were wrong just to "keep the peace"?

LOL no.

Do you have only a few people of whom you are really tend

Well, I guess I only have some friends who

Are you rarely happy, unless you have a special reason?

I am often happy, and I know it, but I usually don't show it. And I never clap my hands.

Do you "circulate around" at a social gathering?

Isn't the "around" already implied by the circulating bit? I usually circle around because I'm not socializing with anyone.... Unless there's a snack table. Then there is very little circulation.

Do you take reasonable precaution to prevent accidents?

Where can I buy this product?

Not having heard of it, I don't take it, but I do take other precautions to prevent accidents, and they usually work.

It depends if I'm talking to them or not.

(i.e. Yes.)

If you saw an article in a shop obviously mistakenly marked lower than its correct price, would you try to get it at that price?

Do you often feel that people are looking at you or talking about you behind your back?

Not often, but sometimes, yes.

Are you 'always getting into trouble'?

LOL no. I'm used to be that goody-goody-two-shoes that no one likes (except that people did like me), and I'm only slightly less good now.

Have you any particular hate or fear?

I hate sand.

Do you prefer to be an onlooker rather than participate in any active sport?

No, rather the contrary, actually. Sports are a rare exception, however, and I generally prefer not to have people looking me on.

Do you find it easy to be impartial?

Partially.

Have you a definitely set standard of courteous behavior in front of other members of your family?

No, I only behave courteously when I'm behind them.

Can you start the "ball rolling" at a social gathering?

LOL no.

Would you "buy on credit" with the hope that you can keep up the payments?

No.

Do you get an after-reaction when something unexpected such as an accident or other disturbing incident takes place?

Nay.

Do you consider the good of all concerned rather than your own personal advantages?

I try. When it comes to dividing up the dessert, however....

When hearing a lecturer, do you sometimes experience the idea that the speaker is referring entirely to you?

Wait, are the lecturer and the speaker the same person?

Does 'external noise' rarely intertere with your concentration?

Nothing interteres with my concentration, but external noises do interfere with it.

Are you usually "up-to-date" on everyday affairs?

Not usually, but I'm not completely out of the loop, either.

No.

Do you consider the modern "prisons without bars" system doomed to failure?

Yes, especially when I'm asleep.

When you criticize - do you at the same time try to encourage?

LOL no. I've been trying to work on that lately, however....

Are you normally considered "cold"?

To the touch? Yes. Otherwise, not really. I'm a lukewarm kind of person.

Are your opinions insufficiently important to tell other people?

To tell other people what?

Are you so self-assured that it sometimes annoys others?

No. At least I hope not.

Do you keep "close contact" on articles of yours which you have loaned to friends?

I don't loan articles to my friends for more than a few minutes. :P I borrow a lot of things, though....

Do you enjoy activities of your own choosing?

Very much so, yes.

Does emotional music have quite an effect on you?

It doesn't quite have an effect on me. I doesn't not have an effect on me either.

Do you completely condemn a person because he is a rival or opponent in some aspect of your relations with him?

No.

Do you often "sit and think" about death, sickness, pain and sorrow?

Fairly often, yes.

Are you perturbed at the idea of loss of dignity?

Yes.

Are you always collecting things which "might be useful"?

I don't usually collect them, but I almost never get rid of them....

Would you criticize faults and point out the bad points on someone else's character or handiwork?

"Would" I? Take, for instance, the multiple spelling errors in this post. I "would" criticize this, yes.

Are you openly appreciative of beautiful things?

Not usually. Sometimes, though.

Do you sometimes give away articles which strictly speaking do not belong to you?

If I have an article that talks to me, I usually keep it.

Do you greet people effusively?

A better question for me might be, "Do you greet people?"

Do you often ponder on previous misfortunes?

I ponder on many things. Especially on my swivel chair or my bed.

Are you sometimes considered forceful in your actions or opinions?

Occasionally.

Do you accept criticism easily and without resentment?

Only if it's of my spelling and/or grammar....

Are you usually undisturbed by "noises off" when you are trying to rest?

By what? I think the answer is "no"....

Are you likely to be jealous?

Maybe.

Do you tend to put off doing things and then discover it is too late?

Not intentionally.

Do you prefer to abide by the wishes of others rather than seek to have your own way?

It depends who the others are and what my way is.

Do you find it easy to get yourself started on a project?

LOL yes. Finishing, on the other hand...well, it would be nice to finish things sometimes.

Do you bite your fingernails or chew the end of your pencil?

Yes.

Do you "turn up the volume" of your emotions just to create an effect?

What emotions?

If we were invading another country, would you feel sympathetic towards conscientious objectors in this country?

Oh, those ones. Yeah, I would.

Are there some things about yourself on which you are touchy?

I touch some things on myself sometimes. There are some, but not many.

Do you have few interests and activities that are your own choice?

No. I don't have a great variety of activities that are my own choice, though....

Do you ever get a single thought which hangs around for days?

Yes.

Are you a slow eater?

LOL no.

Can you be a stabilizing influence when others get panicky?

Yes...I think...

Would you stop and find out whether a person needed help even though they had not directly asked you for it?

Maybe.

Are you prejudiced in favor of your own school, college, club or team, etc,?

No.

Do you pay your debts and keep your promises when it is possible?

Define possible.

Yeah, I do.

Do you sleep well?

It depends on how well I sleep.

Would you use corporal punishment on a child aged ten if it refused to obey you?

I would if there was a corporal nearby. I have a feeling that whoever wrote the question and decided that a child could be called "it" had no second thoughts about it (corporal punishment, not the child, although that too).

Do you prefer to take a passive role in any club or organization to which you belong?

Yes.

Are you logical and scientific in your thinking?

Sort of, but sort of not.

Does the youth of today have more opportunity than that of a generation ago?

I have no opinion here. Also, it depends on the youth.

Do you throw things away only to discover that you need them later?

Yes, but usually I just keep things.

Would you give up easily on a given course if it were causing you a considerable amount of inconvenience?

It depends who gave it to me. I think I wouldn't if I liked it, but I would if it sucked.

Do you "wax enthusiastic' about only a few subjects?

So few, in fact, that I have yet to find one.

Actually, that's not true. I have a handful of interests that cause me to wax in such a manner.

Do you rarely suspect the actions of others?

Yes, but I rarely respect them, unless I told them to do it.

Do you sometimes wonder if anyone really cares about you?

No. I know that no matter what happens, I will always be there for me.

Do you turn down responsibility because you doubt your fitness to cope?

I don't turn down responsibility for fear that someone less fit than myself will end up with it.

Do you sometimes feel compelled to repeat some interesting item or tidbit?

No. I frequently feel compelled to do so, much to other people's disappointment.

Do you tend to exaggerate a justifiable grievance?

P'raps.

Is your facial expression varied rather than set?

My facial expression is as varied as the colour of my socks.

Do you usually need to justify or back up an opinion once stated?

My opinions are so obviously correct that I never have to do so.

Most people may object, however.

Sincerely, yes, openly, no.

Would it take a definite effort on your part to consider the subject of suicide?

Not the subject, no.

Would you consider yourself energetic in your attitude toward life?

LOL no.

Would a disagreement affect your general relationship with another person?

Not from my side of the relationship.

Does a minor failure on your part rarely trouble you?

Yes, no, maybe so. It depends on the nature of the failure, but I guess the answer would be pretty close to a solid no.

Do you sometimes feel that you talk too much?

Never.

Do you smile much?

Fairly often, yes.

Are you easily pleased?

LOL no.

When met with direct opposition would you still seek to have your own way rather than give in?

I get mildly spooked by it, but never much so.

Is your opinion influenced by looking at things from the standpoint of your experiences, occupation or training?

Yes.

Not often, but not never.

Are you suspicious of people who ask to borrow money from you?

Yes, unless I've borrowed a significant sum from them without paying it back....

Are your decisions swayed by personal interests?

Yes.

Can you get quite enthusiastic over "some simple little thing"?

No, and I can remain quite unenthusiastic over "some complicated big thing."

Do you frequently take action even though you know your own good judgment would indicate otherwise?

LOL no. I never take action.

Are you in favor of color bar and class distinction?

I like bars that are coloured, and I approve of distinguishing them, but my answer to the question is no.

Are you aware of any habitual physical mannerisms such as pulling your hair, nose, ears, or such like?

Assuming these are my mannerisms, nothing too habitual.

Can you quickly adapt and make use of new conditions and situations even though they may be difficult?

Not readily, no.

Do some noises "set your teeth on edge"?

Some noises set more than my teeth on edge.

Can you see the other fellow's point of view when you wish to?

I can. Girls' points of view on the other hand....

Do you go to bed when you want to, rather than "by the clock"?

Not while I'm going to school, I don't.

Do the "petty foibles" of others make you impatient?

Yes, but I can be forgiving of them when I remember my own.

Do children irritate you?

Often, but I don't mind being around them and I find some of them kind of cute.

Are you less talkative than your associates?

Few people are less talkative than I.

Do you usually carry out assignments promptly and systematically?

Yes, I usually do.

Would you assist a fellow traveler rather than leave it to the officials?

When voting, do you vote the same party ticket straight rather than studying the candidates and issues?

N/A

Yes.

Do you usually criticize a film or show that you see or a book that you read?

Most of the time I don't.

When recounting some amusing incident can you easily imitate the mannerisms or the dialect in the original incident?

No. Although I can do it well enough when making fun of someone....

In subjects about which you are not expert, are your own ideas of sufficient importance as to tell others?

Not usually.

Do you have a tendency to tidy up a disorder of somebody else's household?

No, I suffer in silence.

Can you accept defeat easily without the necessity of "swallowing your disappointment"?

Maybe, but the meaning of the question has escaped me in my tired state....

Do you often feel depressed?

No.

Are you ever ill at ease in the company of children?

Not ill at ease, but not entirely comfortable either.

Do you get frustrated at not being able to do something rather than finding a substitute activity or system?

It depends what I'm not able to do.

Are you sometimes completely unable to enter the spirit of things?

Sometimes? I'm virtually never able to enter the spirit of things, unless I'm reading a book.

Do you rarely express your grievances?

Maybe.

Do you work in "spurts" being relatively inactive and then furiously active for a day or two?

No. Slow and steady is the way I roll.

Yes.

Yes, especially when I'm doing the crossword puzzle.

I'm not detinite, nor am I emphatic.

Are you effusive only to close friends if at all?

I am very, very rarely effusive, and never in front of anyone besides my family.

Are your interests and tields of knowledge so important as to give little time for anything else?

Yeah, kind of. Especially my tields of knowledge.

Would you like to 'start a new activity' in the area in which you live?

LOL no.

Would you make the necessary actions to kill an animal in order to put it out of pain?

It depends...I don't like killing things, and I don't know that I could crush a bird's head with a rock or throw it at a wall to kill it, no matter how much pain it was in, but I could shoot it.

Is it easy for you to relax?

Usually, but not always.

Do you have little regret on past misfortunes and failures?

Didn't I already answer the mirror image of this question? No, I don't have little regret.

Does the idea of fear or apprehension give you a physical reaction?

The idea of fear and apprehension does nothing.

Can you trust the decision of your judgment in an emotional situation in which you are involved?

No.

Could someone else consider that you were really active?

No.

Do you find it hard to get started on a task that needs to be done?

Not usually, though I'm not often eager to clean the toilet, especially when it needs doing.

Are you opposed to the "probation system" for criminals"

Not at all.

Do you spend much time on needless worries?

I have been known to do so, but I guess I haven't done too much of it lately.

In a disagreement do you find it hard to understand how the other person fails to see your side, and thus agree with you?

Yes.

Do you spend too freely in relation to your income?

LOL no. I let my friends do that, and then share the stuff they've bought.

As long as I've double-, triple-, and quadruple-checked the calculations....

If you were involved in a slight car accident, would you really take the trouble to see that any damage you did was made good?

Do others push you around?

Not usually.

Do you make allowances for your friends where with others you might judge more severely?

Yeah, I guess I do that.

What inferiority?

Do people criticize you to others?

Sometimes, but usually they inflate my head.

Are you embarrassed by a hearty greeting such as a kiss, hug, or pat on the back, if done in public?

Never by a pat on the back, but maybe by a kiss.

Provided I think I know enough, then yes.

I often find myself going off in no directions at all times.

Do your acquaintances seem to think more of your abilities than you do?

Often, but I think pretty highly of my abilities.... :P

Does life seem rather vague and unreal to you?

Sometimes.

Do you often feel upset about the state of war victims and political refugees?

Not as often as I should.

Do "mere acquaintances" appeal to you for aid or advice in their personal difficulties?

No. I don't think I'm very good at listening to people's problems....

If you lose an article, do you get the idea that "someone must have stolen or mislaid it?"

I don't just get the idea, I know that it was stolen!

I often get the idea, but I rarely take it too seriously.

It you thought that someone was suspicious of you and your actions, would you tackle them on the subject rather than leaving them to work it out?

I try not to, since I don't really have that much worth complaining about.

Do you tend to hide your feelings?

Always.

Do you consider you have many warm friends?

It depends...I find that they're warmer in the summer, but I don't touch enough of them or often enough to really know how many I have.

(The answer you're looking for is "no.")

And there's that weird construction with "consider" again.

 *All answers are 99% accurate, however.

That letterhead is the shit.
