Yet another cool personality test... - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Hello, all!

I've seen a lot of cool personality tests on the chit-chat board lately, so I thought I'd put in my two cents.

I had to read "The Pigman" over the summer for school, and this test is taken from the book.

Number a piece of paper 1-5, and write down your answers after reading this murder story:

"There is a river with a bridge over it, and a WIFE and her HUSBAND live in a house on one side. The WIFE has a LOVER who lives on the other side of the river, and the only way to get from one side of the river to the other is to walk across the bridge or to ask the BOATMAN to take you.

One day the HUSBAND tells his WIFE that he has to be gone all night to handle some business in a faraway town. The WIFE pleads with him to take her with him because she knows if he doesn't she will be unfaithful to him. The HUSBAND absolutely refuses to take her because she will only be in the way of his important business.

So the HUSBAND goes alone. When he is gone, the WIFE goes over the bridge and stays with her LOVER. The night passes, and dawn is almost up when the WIFE leaves because she must get back to her own house before her HUSBAND gets home. She starts to cross the bridge but sees an ASSASSIN waiting for her on the other side, and she knows if she tries to cross, he will murder her. In terror, she runs up the side of the river and asks the BOATMAN to take her across the river, but he wants fifty cents. She has no money, so he refuses to take her.

The WIFE runs back to the LOVER's house and explains to him what her predicament is and asks him for fifty cents to pay the BOATMAN. The LOVER refuses, telling her it's her own fault for getting into the situation. As dawn comes up the WIFE is nearly out of her mind and decides to dash across the bridge. When she comes face to face with the ASSASSIN, he takes out a large knife and stabs her until she is dead."

Here's what you have to do. Just write down, in order, who you think is the MOST responsible for the wife's death. DO NOT READ BELOW THIS UNTIL YOU HAVE ANSWERED!

Each of the characters is a symbol for something, and the way you have listed them tells what you are most concerned with in life.

WIFE = FUN

HUSBAND = LOVE

LOVER = SEX

ASSASSIN = MONEY

BOATMAN = MAGIC

Are the answers accurate? What do ya think?

Later.

You can't get love. You're destined to remain single for the rest of your life.
