I'm not entirely bad, I made a 66, but I'll keep working at it! Only 58, Twink? Don't worry, you're young yet! IP: Logged |

Hrm, looking at the posted scores, I'm not sure I want to know just which of those points they scored on (despite my curiosity), along the principle that it's just best not to know. *frowns* My score is about 12 (depending on how strictly I interpret the questions), but I'm no angel. I think the list is clearly biased towards certain areas of badness, and misses others out. I'm a selfish lazy bitter sod, yet I scored lower than people who've done "bad things" and yet are probably better and nicer people, and who've lived more. OK, I'm not that evil :) What worries me is that I feel ashamed of a low score, and worried that people will scorn me for it. Does this reflect badly on society, or just me? Besides which, how come kissing, hugging and holding hands are bad? Actually, in my bitterness that's the kind of thing I'd consider putting in just for spite, but surely those would be given negative ratings to decrease one's badness? :) Cmon now... And actually, I originally posted this just so I could compare Nayt and Zorro's scores...yes yes... I wonder if Z will score above 94? - Uilleann IP: Logged |

26. It seems that the test is biased toward (or against) females, since a couple of the items could only reasonably be scored if you're of the distaff persuasion. (Mostly I'm thinking of #36 and #37.) IP: Logged |

62 Some of the questions must be true for everyone though. I mean holding hands- everyone holds their parents hands from the start. IP: Logged |

64. I took a yes on 36 and 37 because I have been called various male equivalents by people who really meant it at the time. Does getting a BJ in a moving vehicle count for 42 (the ultimate answer!). If it does I'll take a 66. I do think some of the questions need clarification. Being Italian, men kiss each other in greeting, but since it is entirely non-sexual, I took a no on 24. Everyone gets kissed by their parents as well, so no one should count that case as a yes. 15 is another problem question. It should read "screwed something that used to be alive". Otherwise it's just a toy, which is covered in 43. Likewise, doing an inflatable sheep should be counted only under 43, not 14 as well. And it misses so many good ones. Had sex in public. I could go on forever. IP: Logged |

quote: Depends. Yes, I've helds hands with/hugged/kissed parents and relatives when I was little, but I feel that such activities don't count here; the phrase "Never been kissed" would offer support to me here. Were I to still have hugs with anyone now I'd count that one, but I'd only count kisses were they romantically inclined; kissing relatives to me doesn't count here. If it should, then the post needs to be edited to be more precise on that and perhaps other matters.
quote: Likewise, I've been called a bitch (and whore) in jest (simply someone's standard insult vocabulary), but I took the questions to refer to situations in which one has been bad enough to have earned those epithets with reason. Again, the questions are not precise enough. Actually, one could argue that they are already perfectly precise, but then I feel that they would be (even more) out of keeping with trying to measure badness. Anyhow, assuming that the questions are intended to be interpreted precisely, I can add another 12 points to my score, bringing it up to 24, and yet still not addressing any of my personality flaws. Oh, was this all supposed to be in... fun? ;) - Uilleann IP: Logged |

38. But I can't help noticing how many of the so-called "bad" activities are completely innocent (holding hands?!), and also how much this test seems to be a fourth-rate ripoff of the venerable Purity Test. IP: Logged |

28, but I don't think this is in any way an indication of anything. Seems that only a few questions were really moral questions. Anyone who has been in a long term relationship has to add points left and right for "holding hands," "hugging," "kissing" and "french kissing" seperatly... If they answer YES to the sex question, then the rest of them should be implied. The funny thing is I am probably the most "color inside the lines" of anyone except nayt, but have a higher score than a number of you. I think we should write a geek test and a bad test.... It would be intersting to see what we think IS bad and what IS geeky. ------------------ IP: Logged |

Hmm, well if holding hands, hugging, and kissing in a christmas-with-relatives way doesn't count... plus there's a few others that I counted that were pretty borderline... My score would be 8. Sexual fantasies, and yes to all 3 porn questions. Just because I can't get any doesn't meant I can't be horny right? Right? IP: Logged |

Well, they way some of these questions are worded, it's really hard to represent some of my darker side, and so, using my best interpretation, I got a 14 (it may be higher or less, depending on different meanings [my first interpretation was lower]). Like Uillean, I tend to think I'm worse than a 14, and I'm curious, TT - you got a 58, aren't you a little young to get a 58? Aren't I little old to get 14? These questions seem to have a slant to them... Define moving vehicle, betraying a friend (not sure if I've really done that), and the context of holding hands, and hugging. IP: Logged |

I wish the questions were a little more defined, If left up to the right interpretations we could have all scored in at least the 80's. I am sure that at least everyone at some point in there life took a penny from their family members room. I used to do it all the time when I was little. little things like those count. there is a lot of underscoring out there, I know there are more bad people out there like us >;o) ...........Z ------------------ IP: Logged |
