Are you a psychopath?

Check out this article at Damn Interesting. Even if you don't want to read the whole thing at least take the Pseudo-Scientific Psychopath Detector test.

It has a link to get a copy and pastable set of results.

Probable diagnosis = Non-psychopath with criminal leanings

Hmm....

Relatively Normal....what the hell...I wanted to be a psychopath! Hey...isn't "normal" a relative term anyway?

First!

Err, ignore that comment. Yes, it doesn't mean anything, come on, be a pal and forget it.

Really, I only got "Non-psychopath with criminal leanings" as well.

Now, I just need to find that ^&@%#! who wrote that story. Let's see, where is my hatchet. . .

If I had taken this test 10 or 15 years ago...I would have done much better! I promise I would have!

Relatively normal. Who will be the first BadMovies.org psychopath?

Fishasaurus · January 23, 2008, 12:35:07 PM

"Relatively normal;" WTF!

"Relatively normal" - that is exactly as insulting as "mostly harmless"!

Good to know I'm not the only one Raj.

I'm relatively normal, but changing one answer was enough to make it non-psychopath with criminal leanings. I'm just barely on the relatively normal side, which seems about right.

"Non psychopath with criminal leanings." I would have marked 'sexual promiscuity' a YES...but I guess that would mean sex with other people....

Non-psychopath with criminal leanings
It's what I got. Yeah, I could kill somebody, but I don't think I would, or maybe I would.. I dunno.

LilCerberus · January 23, 2008, 03:15:25 PM

Moderately psychopathic

Well, being a republican with artistic leanings is a very difficult balance.

threnody · January 23, 2008, 06:35:31 PM

Relatively normal.
