Title: Where do you score on the Morbid Curiosity Scale? Post by: Newt on December 05, 2022, 03:14:57 PM I figure this belongs here.
From QI: Coltan Scrivner’s Morbid Curiosity Scale weighs how much you agree with such statements as ‘I would be interested in attending or watching a video of an exorcism’ or ‘If a head transplant was possible, I would want to watch the procedure’.

Title: Re: Where do you score on the Morbid Curiosity Scale? Post by: ER on December 05, 2022, 07:28:09 PM I think I am low, as I only said yes to six of the scenarios.

Post by: Paquita on December 13, 2022, 09:36:37 PM If I’m doing the scoring right, I totaled 94 which averages out to 3.91, so I think I am almost somewhat agreeably morbidly curious. That sounds like me.
I think some of the questions though could use some tweaking – is being curious about WHY a killers do what they do or the motive behind a murder as morbid as being curious about HOW? Or does that cross the line from morbid to depraved? Of course I’m interested in WHY, how else will I always be 3 steps ahead of a murderer? Also, I don’t think there’s anything morbid about witchcraft. That’s like plan C when your kid has a stubborn fever and you can’t get into the urgent care quick enough. |
