What Animal Are You ?

swoops away from potentially confrontational situation

I was a porcupine.

Mole
Genera and species: Condylura Cristata
Collective Term: A labor of moles
Description
It's easy to recognize the mole personality. For one thing, they have a pasty complexion and are usually seen in late night coffee shop, jazz bars, or underground clubs. To avoid drawing attention to themselves, they favor dark clothing and sunglasses and are the first people to volunteer for the graveyard shift.

The mole is a smallish individual with far more power than its flaccid body suggests, although its strength is more mental than physical. With its ability to focus on the job at hand, there is no situation from which a mole cannot extricate itself.

There's something compelling about the mole personality, and in the early sixties it was quite fashionable to be a mole in the form of a creative and philosophical beatnik -- expressing angst through music and poetry. Bob Dylan and John Lennon carried the mole standard into the seventies, but the fashion largely died and moles were forced back underground.

Moles are restless and although constantly engaged in activity, they never seem to get anything done and despite their drab appearance, they have extremely sharp minds and are excellent problem solvers. As reflected in their determined burrowing through difficult terrain, moles prefer solutions with straight lines rather than having to go around problems. When confronted with difficult issues, they never give up -- hacking away with dogged determination until the answer is found. This attribute makes them perfect for jobs in engineering, accounting or diagnostic work.

Sex is not the most important thing in the mole's life but if there is one animal personality that can push all the right buttons; it would be its soul mate, the bat. (like Yoko Ono) The bat and the mole share a love for dark intimacy and when these two get together, black magic is bound to happen.

Hmm...

[DarthVeda]

A walrus eh?

[Ishtar]

I'm either a bison, elephant or walrus....but really, after reading the descriptions...I think it's a combination of the three....how bout that....a "new" animal. :-D

[Wernazuma III]

Porcupine or bat, maybe beaver

[Bas]

A bat or a horse, but I may also be a gorilla.

[Eli]

You are either a Penguin or a Bat personality.
But you may also be a Walrus personality.

[Bas]

A bat seems to be the closest of the three, though.

[Proteus_MST]

I´m a bat (and somehow it fits )

A Zebra. Quite interesting.

[Graag]

A snake and a bat.

Which I was quite surprised and pleased with really... I always had quite an affinity with snakes

Pity the cold-blooded snakes. Without arms, wings or flippers, they are forced to slink through life in a solitary quest for warmth and acceptance. Shy and insecure, they must keep a low profile to avoid the disapproving glances and teasing of others. Of course, their poisonous wit and quick tongues help to keep tormentors at bay.

As a child its small frame was no defense against the taunts of the playground bullies, so its sharply vicious attacks were adopted as means of protection. Snakes have no illusions about getting breaks in life and while they see doors opening for others, they have resigned themselves to staying in their lowly, entry level positions. So don't try and humor the snake, for it has reconciled itself to its subservient position.

With their intimate connection to the earth and their unique perspective on life, snakes have learned to express themselves through their art. Whether writers, moviemakers or painters, they are obsessively meticulous about their craft. Every now and then, one makes an impact on the art world and is thrust into the spotlight. But the snake recoils from the glare of publicity, and its behavior becomes even more erratic than usual. Woody Allen, the proverbial snake, comes to mind.

In winter, the cold-blooded snake is miserable. It just can't cope in the low temperature that seeps in through its thin skin, affecting its mood and sapping its energy. Prone to colds and flu, they are pathetic sights as they snivel and cough throughout the season. But when summer returns with its warmth and light, the snakes' moods brighten and their spirits soar.

Snakes are not fussy about their choice of jobs. As cold blooded personalities they perform best when given warmth and kindness and will accept almost any job, provided they feel secure and trusted. However, if they feel mistrusted, they live up to their reputation and return the disloyalty. Consequently, they are often relegated to menial jobs in the fast-food industry or as unskilled labor.

It's not easy for snakes to disguise themselves. Even their speech betrays their reptilian heritage -- for snakes often have a slight lisp or stutter. This doesn't do much to help their self- esteem and they're more likely to spend their evenings quietly at home, than boogying down in a nightclub.

For all their vulnerabilities, snakes exude mysterious sexual ooze that seeps into the senses of even the most discriminating people. This is not love that we're talking about -- it's a deep reptilian desire for forbidden fruit -- of which we are all familiar.

As much as I claim to believe these tests are BS, I habitually do them whenever I see a new one, and I've been surprised more than once by some very simple tests... I remember one a few years ago which I thought was amazing, I showed a lot of friends and most agreed it was uncanny for it's simplicity. Think it may have had something to do with Jungian ideas.

If anyone knows of any good personality tests, please post, I am insatiable. In fact post even if the test is balls, it'll kill a few minutes.

[Provost Harrison]

Hmmm, that snake description would probably fit me in many ways also...mind you, I expect we can twist just about any of these explanations to fit ourselves...

...so I am just an animal

[SlowwHand]

Well, test to your heart's content, Graag.
This site has LOTS of test.

Yes this is always the first thing I check when doing a personality test; how general the results are. This to me is final proof astrology is BS, that almost all the personality types and forecasts can apply equally to pretty much anyone.
But this test is fairly good, I investigated a couple of the possible alternatives, and they seemed much less applicable to my personality type than the snake and bat. Good test!

Though I also take great issue with the dolphin description. David c*nting Hasselhof my arse.
