apollaOK, Dan linked to this quiz thing so I thought I'd have a go. Obviously I'm not Canadian, so not everything applies...
The Test Itself
This is your selected tribe: New Aquarians
Incidence in Population
Proportion of Canadian population: 5 per cent
Proportion of Gen Xers: 14 per cent
Other Demographics
Mostly mirror the general population
Fundamental Motivations
Social Justice and Experience-seeking
Key Values
Adaptability
Concern for the less fortunate
Concern for the environment
Respect for education
Contempt for traditional authorities
Hedonism
Words to Live By
There is no being, only becoming
Everything changed in Seattle
No justice, no peace
Money Orientation
Making it: I'd never do work I didn't believe in.
Spending it: When I must consume at all, I consume with conscience.
Saving it: I'm not saving much now, but when I do I'll call the shots.
Stealing it: No, thanks.
Giving it away: Environmental and social causes
I'd like to point out that I'm actually a lot closer to Autonomous Rebels. I won't post everything about them but I will point out that included in the 'Icons' list is a bloke called John Lennon. The Key Values are as follows:
Key Values
Scepticism toward Traditional Institutions
Question Authority
Freedom
Individuality
and this from Money: Making it: I want my work to mean something, but I don't want it to mean everything.
HELLO! THIS IS ME! I only didn't get this list because, as per fecking usual, I'm the wrong generation. Like that was news to me. If I was born thirty years earlier I would've been around for most of rock and roll and I'd be in the same age group as my boys. I coulda gone and helped Jimmy in Paris. As it is, I'll be celebrating his 60th birthday on Monday without him. I'll admit that not everything about the 'Autonomous Rebels' is very me, but it's a lot closer than 'Seattle changed everything' which I don't agree with from any particular point of view. Morph the two together, put some rock and roll on the stereo and I guess you get me.
Must go now. Have to get up tomorrow to post cards and do things in town.
