    You got: Liberal  
     

    You believe in democracy and find that freedom and rights are the most important component of a society. You believe that everyone is born equal and that there should be a strong constitution to ensure people are free to act as they please as long as they don't hurt each other. You hold a progressive attitude to most moral issues and believe that new and different cultures and lifestyles are good for a society. You are in favour of science, technology and globalisation. To you, traditions and religion are not that important.
     
    I got Liberal despite a decent amount of my views are more towards neutral or more on the Egalitarian/Libertarian side. Fuck Globalization though. We don't need that crap.

    Most likely, you're a filthy Neo-Liberal, just like me. I'd be far more curious how people would rank in the 8values test.

    Ohhh interesting, lets see what I get

     

    https://www.proprofs.com/quiz-school/story.php?title=what-is-your-political-ideology_1

    You got: Communist    

    You believe that capitalism creates unfair differences between rich and poor, wastes resources and destroys the environment. You believe that democracy is corruptable by the rich and therefore incompetent. For you, leaders should be appointed meritocratically. In your perfect system, a dictatorial governemnt controls everything in order to ensure a perfect society.

    You would agree with the teachings of Karl Marx and similar writers. There are Communist Parties in most democratic countries. Communist countries today include Cuba, North Korea, China and Vietnam.

    There are liberal political parties in most democratic countries. Some examples include:
    America: Democratic Party
    European Union: ALDE (and their national members)
    Canada: Liberal Party
    Japan: Democratic Party

    The freest country in the world is Estonia.

     

    Still a bit too short of a test. I say again: Political Compass and 8 values are much, much better. Hell, I don't think the test even mentioned cultures, yet supposedly I'm all for multiculturalism? Race and culture are not one in the same.

    Been borderline chainsmoking for the past 5 years and holy hell I wouldn't recommend that to anyone.

    I roll my own. It's considerably cheaper and taste a lot better in my opinion. You also get to pick the size of the cigarette, thickness of the paper and stuff you just can't get from normal cigarettes. The tobacco I use is American Spirit (the yellow kind)

     

    Same here. Had to get an ECG to start going to the gym (which I ended up not doing anyway) and the doctor asked me if I was already doing sports because apparently my heart is in incredibly good shape despite being a smoker for 5 years and being morbidly obese for most of my life (I lost 90 pounds last year though, now I'm normal weight)

    It ain't going to last long though if I don't kick the habit, which is hopefully going to happen eventually.

    My metabolic age is 12. My actual age is twice that.

    Also, unlike you, I've never been fat, much less morbidly obese. I liked exercising ever since I was very young, and even sometimes when I've got nothing better to do I go for a 1-hour run. I did sports (basically soccer and indoor soccer, or fooball and futsal, depending on the country you live in) for 8 years straight (and a lot of it was playing the role of a box-to-box midfielder), which is always bound to help.

  4. Chainsmoker for about 5 years now.

    I smoke about 3/4 of a pack of Marlboro per day.

    Somehow, I still have an insane level of cardio, despite not doing any sports for over 7 years now.

  5. I'm a Roman Hellenist.

    My favorite god is Mars, because he kicks ass. Though I also do enjoy Jupiter's mighty thunder.

    Sometimes I think about offering an animal as sacrifice to them. Though, obviously, I would never sacrifice humans, much less children. That's for those filthy Carthaginians.

  6. The Miz has always been a great heel. He has serious issues, however, and these will never go away. For starters, the name. That goddamn name. It's absoultely god-awful. Some wrestlers can get over it, like The Rock, but that guy had a much higher charisma. Then, the punchable face. And then, the annoying voice.

     

    Great heel, yeah, but it's not easy to take him seriously.

  7. Companies in my country say "Happy Holidays" instead of "Merry Christmas". But it isn't due to political correctness, it's to conveniently tie in with the New Year.

     

    Everyone here knows the anthem by heart. Not because we're patriots, but because we really like soccer and always hear the anthem before the matches. Also, it's pretty much the first thing they teach us at elementary school.

     

    In some countries, eating pork is forbidden. In others, people eat parts of the pork. In here, we eat the whole damn thing.

     

    In many countries, the soccer club you have is the one from the area which you live in. In here, people choose one out of the three biggest. On a whole, these three clubs have about 9.5 million supporters. The remaining one million is divided between all the other clubs.

     

    We're broke, but it doesn't matter, because we've always been broke.

     

    We're not very respectable of road laws. Sometimes people pass the red signal, and if a cop spots you, you don't run away or stop immediately, you keep going on with your business while telling the police officer "it was red, but it wasn't RED-red". However, it's not as bad as Italy, seeing as we don't drive through the sidewalk... most of the times, anyway.

     

    In many countries, the people don't enjoy cops beating up people, deeming it "police brutality", and it rarely happens. In here, while it doesn't happen very often, when it does, the people don't really mind, because the guy getting beat up "probably deserved it". I would like to note here, I don't really mind this happening anyway.

     

    Cops are very laissez-faire in my country, but when they feel you step too much out of line, then they will act. What I mean by this? Well, you pass the red signal by accident, you're fine. You cross the road with no sidewalk, you're fine. You're insulting the police, you're screwed.

  8. You know, discussing how good a year is awfully subjective. You may talk to different people and you'll realize your worst year may have likely been the best year for some, and vice-versa.

     

    This year wasn't really great to me, but it wasn't the worst either. That easily goes to 2012.

  9. I remember when Long used to be a bad@$$ GM who took no crap from heels.

     

    Until they suddenly made him a complete wuss for no good reason whatsoever.

     

    So they owe it to him to at least give him a dignified Induction as compensation.

     

    I'm really gonna be mad if he makes absolutely no reference to all the tag team matches.
