We're all getting played with, babe. -Weird Barbie

Given my complete inability to remember faces--even of people I know--I'm not going to take that test. It's going to make me feel like an idiot.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

I'm good at faces (who knew). The new faces one:

Out of 20 target faces (ones you studied in the first part of this test), you correctly identified 16. Out of 30 nontarget faces (ones that didn't study in the first part of this test), you correctly responded that you had not seen 29 of them.

Overall, you got 90% correct

The average person with normal face recognition scores about 85% on this test. If you scored less than 75% on this test, this may indicate face recognition difficulties.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I can't recall having seen him in anything.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Also, Cindy, he's the face on the LJ userpic Betsy HP uses almost all the time. Not that I can remember her mentioning the name, but at least the face has been floating around for ages; maybe you just osmosed it from there somehow.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Dude, I just finished doing E's and my taxes (online, woot) and we're actually getting money BACK this year! For the first time since college! (Only about $30 once taxcut.com's fees are added in, but still. Excitement!)

KITT is for sale: [link]

Unfortunately "it cannot achieve the 300 mph speeds that KITT reached, soar 50 feet in the air or throw smoke bombs, [but] key features of the star car are intact. Perhaps most important, the red scanner light on the nose glows and makes a humming noise."

I loved KITT.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

In the unfamiliar face test:

Overall, you got 58% correct

The average person with normal face recognition scores about 85% on this test. If you scored less than 75% on this test, this may indicate face recognition difficulties.

I seem to be near borderline again....

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

I'm with Kristin, no way am I taking that test.

What is even happening?

Four Weddings and a Funeral?
I saw it, but I don't remember him in it. I just went to his imdb page. I remember a lot of Mr. Bean ads, and they puzzled me at the time, because they seemed to present Mr. Bean as a character I should already know.

JZ, yeah, I just plucked the name out of the atmosphere. I looked, said, "Oh, it's that guy, Mr. Bean. Rowan Atkinson! No. Wait. Rowan Martin. No, that's Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In. Is it Rowan Atkinson? Oh what the hell."

Oh my, we have to do our taxes. I don't know why we wait so long every year. We're likely getting a refund. Sometimes, I hate us.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I got 89% on the familiar faces test. I'm scared to take the other one. I missed Condoleeeezzzzza Rice. I think it was because my brain froze in horror at the hideousness of the photo.
