    Strange how I received that label, as I found no connection between some of the questions and the quiz's conclusion with such a characteristic. Most of the generalized predictions of the quiz seemed, at least, somewhat fitting, and some people have mentioned me having a rather dark sense of humor, but never "sick;" I laughed while reading the result. But, oh well, no worries.

    You're The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe!
    by C.S. Lewis
    You were just looking for some decent clothes when everything changed quite dramatically. For the better or for the worse, it is still hard to tell. Now it seems like winter will never end and you feel cursed. Soon there will be an epic struggle between two forces in your life and you are very concerned about a betrayal that could turn the balance. If this makes it sound like you're re-enacting Christian theological events, that may or may not be coincidence. When in doubt, put your trust in zoo animals.
    If you believe even a half of this post, you are severely mistaken.

    You're The Sound and the Fury! by William Faulkner

    Strong-willed but deeply confused, you are trying to come to grips with a major crisis in your life. You can see many different perspectives on the issue, but you're mostly overwhelmed with despair at what you've lost. People often have a hard time understanding you, but they have some vague sense that you must be brilliant anyway. Ultimately, you signify nothing.

    "You're Siddhartha!
    by Hermann Hesse
    You simply don't know what to believe, but you're willing to try anything once. Western values, Eastern values, hedonism and minimalism, you've spent some time in every camp. But you still don't have any idea what camp you belong in. This makes you an individualist of the highest order, but also really lonely. It's time to chill out under a tree. And realize that at least you believe in ferries."

    Well, the last line is true, at any rate - I have never been to France without one.

    .
    Voices mysterious far and near,
    Sound of the wind and sound of the sea,
    Are calling and whispering in my ear,
    Whifflingpin! Why stayest thou here?

    You're Ulysses!
    by James Joyce
    Most people are convinced that you don't make any sense, but compared to what else you could say, what you're saying now makes tons of sense. What people do understand about you is your vulgarity, which has convinced people that you are at once brilliant and repugnant. Meanwhile you are content to wander around aimlessly, taking in the sights and sounds of the city. What you see is vast, almost limitless, and brings you additional fame. When no one is looking, you dream of being a Greek folk hero.
    OK, that's scary.
    But the time ain't tall, yet on time you depend
    And no word is possessed by no special friend
    And though the line is cut it ain't quite the end,
    I'll just bid farewell till we meet again.
    - Bob Dylan

    You're The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald
    Having grown up in immense wealth and privilege, the world is truly at
    your doorstep. Instead of reveling in this life of luxury, however, you spend most of
    your time mooning over a failed romance. The object of your affection is all but
    worthless--a frivolous liar--but it matters not to you. You can paint any image of the
    past you want and make it seem real. If you were a color of fishing boat light, you
    would be green.

    Some of us laugh
    Some of us cry
    Some of us smoke
    Some of us lie
    But it's all just the way
    that we cope with our lives...

    You're Anne of Green Gables!
    by L.M. Montgomery
    Bright, chipper, vivid, but with the emotional fortitude of cottage cheese, you make quite an impression on everyone you meet. You're impulsive, rash, honest, and probably don't have a great relationship with your parents. People hurt your feelings constantly, but your brazen honestly doesn't exactly treat others with kid gloves. Ultimately, though, you win the hearts and minds of everyone that matters. You spell your name with an E and you want everyone to know about it
    Well ... uhm .... not sure that's true.
    Got a great relationship with my parents but I do happen to spell my name with an E. It would be really awkward to pronounce it otherwise.

    You're I, Robot!
    by Isaac Asimov
    While you have established a code of conduct for many generations to follow, your demeanor is rather cold and calculating. Brought up to serve humans, you have promised never to harm them, to follow orders, and to protect yourself. Living up to this code has proved challenging and sometimes even drives you mad. If you were a type of paper, you would be pulp.

    You're The Poisonwood Bible!
    by Barbara Kingsolver
    Deeply rooted in a religious background, you have since become both isolated and schizophrenic. You were naively sure that your actions would help people, but of course they were resistant to your message and ultimately disaster ensued. Since you can see so many sides of the same issue, you are both wise beyond your years and tied to worthless perspectives. If you were a type of waffle, it would be Belgian.


    Interesting. I've never read it.

    You're Les Miserables!
    by Victor Hugo

    One of the best known people in your community, you have become something of a phenomenon. People have sung about you, danced in your honor, created all manner of art in your name. And yet your story is one of failure and despair, with a few brief exceptions. A hopeless romantic, you'll never stop hoping that more good will come from your failings than is ever possible. Beware detectives and prison guards bearing vendettas.
