The bean brings life

[altariel]

Pinched from applegnat


You are a double espresso at three AM.

You are the tortured, nail-biting essence of
coffee. You see visions. You could change the
world if only you were up at the same time as
everyone else. You have created a programming
language that throws errors if the code is not
written in iambic pentameter, and you are
infuriated by the typos in the new edition of
Ulysses. You practice sarcasm as a
form of tantric sex, and your cats have
doctorates. You believe in virgin sacrifice in
a good cause.


What kind of coffee are you?

What does it say about me that I read 'the bean brings life' and immediately thought of Sean Bean?

It says that you are in a sensible place right now ;-D

Hee! How amusing!

You are instant coffee gulped on a bus.

You are better than nothing. You are well-meaning, but ersatz. You sing along with Muzak in elevators. You cannot remember your original hair color, and your artificial nails could be
used to slice a zucchini. You forget small details such as your telephone number and the names of your children. You believe in astrology, numerology, and satinism (the cult of shiny fabrics).

Hmm... Satinism. Definitely a religion I can get behind.

And I must admit, I also thought you were referring to Sean Bean when you mentioned the word "bean". Heh. Obsessed? Me? Never.

It's weird having Satanism in the middle of all that muzak and stuff... Although, thinking about it...

You're not the only one who thought of a different Bean.

LOL! Actually, that sort of surprised me, too. Until I read the words in brackets, and caught on that the word was satinism. And suddenly my worship of shiny fabrics was explained. :D

*smacks forehead* I'd assumed that because it was a Quizilla quiz, it was bound to be a typo.

Me too, not surprisingly, except that as I don't like coffee can I swap it to very very dark chocolate at 3 a.m.?

[altariel.livejournal.com]

It's always OK to swap things for dark chocolate.

If your cats have doctorates, you can ask *them* how they handled their rewrites.

[altariel.livejournal.com]

They'll probably have more success than me.

You are a cappuccino, sipped in the afternoon, after sex. You are not trendy; you set trends for others. You wear black or nothing, and your playlist alternates Mahler with bands no one else has heard of. You read Rimbaud in public places, and you have a vintage poster for La Dolce Vita hanging over your bed. You pepper your conversation with quotes from obscure Jacobean revenge tragedies, and you cackle to yourself when your lovers assume that you are quoting I Love Lucy. Your glasses have designer frames and you do not need them to see.

You know, any quiz that makes a not-so-oblique reference to H.P. Lovecraft is one cool quiz. :) And obscure Jacobean revenge tragedies? Is someone reading my mail? ;)

[altariel.livejournal.com]

:-D It's a particularly good quiz, I think. The pictures are great.

What a fabulous answer! That gave me all kinds of cheer at this dark hour of a Monday morning. (Yes, I'm still behind. :-))

And, double espresso at 3am? No wonder you see visions.

I think this caffeine addiction may well be getting a little out of hand... ;-)
