So I'm creative, hardworking, gentle, creative and at ease with myself.

I just don't understand why people perform studies like these. Marketing? That's the only logical reason I can come up with. I see this stuff as pop culture bullshit and it annoys the hell out of me. Don't try to define me by what kind of deodorant I buy...I pick a random bar off the shelf for fuck's sake.

That in and of itself says something about you, and it's information they use. I don't mind it. I actually take the marketing calls over the phone, because I'm happy to have my tastes represented more in the marketplace.

I am alone, in a dark room, on a rainy afternoon. I am listening to Cocteau Twins. What does that say about me?

Maybe under all that whiskey they're a shy, pensive lot. Hence the need for the whiskey, of course.

On a more serious note, perhaps that's why they stereotypically own so many dogs. Gives them someone to talk to when their woman leaves them for the umpteenth time.

Well, I'll be driving down the highway listening to some indie music in about an hour. What does that say about me? Analyze me!!

You lack self-esteem, you're not very gentle, and you don't care about the environment.

I never in a million would expect you to say something like this, Mr. Capitalism is Nature.

I listen to heavy metal, which means I'm gentle and creative.

I knew it! Everybody saying I must be of an aggressive type to listen to this kind of music. I told them I was a nice guy, really...
