'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

31 5yos, but that may have been because I didn't feel obliged to be entirely truthful in my answers. OTOH, in a true life or death situation, I'm quite willing to use one as a weapon....

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

From my IM:

me: [5-year-old linky]
hub: 27
me: It's because you can kick higher than me, isn't it?
hub: Probably. Also, I have a 58% chance of surviving a zombie attack.
me: But how are those comparable? I mean, are they 5-yr-old zombies?
hub: I think 5-yr-old zombies are accounted for in the zombie quiz, but I don't think zombie 5-yr-olds are accounted for in the 5-yr-old quiz.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I scored 13. Which was way more than I expected, as I'm overweight and out of shape and a little dubious about beating the crap out of a kid.

The Boy scored 18, because although he is athletic, he has a moral center. (It's chewy.)

Theo -- 31?!?

I scored 25, offsetting being overweight and only slightly trained with a longer-than-average reach and an attitude toward children that makes W. C. Fields look like Mary Poppins by comparison.

We took the zombie survival one, and I only have a 29% chance of survival, because I'm slow and don't own a gun, and I'd try to save my zombified loved one.

The Boy has a 53% chance of survival, because he'd shoot me in the head after one last look. (Er, if I were a zombie, that is. I think he'd think a little longer about shooting me if I were un-zombified, though I *am* dead weight.)

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Which one do you shop at?

I bought those at 20th & SM, that's the one by my OB/Gyn.

I haven't checked out the 5 yr old game. I'm a bit scared of my score, but I'm not sure what I'm more worried about, it being high or it being low.

I can't remember my zombie survival score, but it was better than average yet still low enough that I'd become zombie chow before winning my way to safety.

brillig

21. But only because I have no compulsion about making little kids cry. And hurt. And bleed.

The SCA experience and having been over-run in a mosh pit apparently helps, as well.

22 5 year olds here. I think my reach and height helped a lot.

Because books.

I only got 18. Which honestly seems like a lot, given my experience with five-year-olds.
