The great big alphabet companies will probably track your results but what's life without a little risk?
Are You a Conspiracy Theorist? Take The Test
My results are quite accurate, I think.
Quote:2.3 to 3.2. Borderline case. You have an interest in alternative explanations. You are out of the mainstream, but America is still a free country, right?
As for that last question..errr...no. Nowhere close to what it used to be. But what do I know, I'm Canadian !
Are YOU a Conspiracy Theorist?

Edit Reason: smiley
)
Because of the crappy possible answers, I got a 3.33333333335...
Meaning - Definitely a conspiracy theorist.
Suggestions for Consideration (therapy):
1. I should go outside more often.
2. Twinkies & Oreos are not manna from Heaven.
3. JFK will forgive me for not pursuing his real killers with greater gusto.
4. The Moon is just the Moon.
5. The MSM is all there is or should be...for news.
6. Airplanes fall from the skies (and/or disappear) with some regularity.
7. Take some more pills --- what you're on is obviously not working.
8. If Aliens were real, the government would have told us, long ago.
Aaacchhhttt - Wish I had a spittoon.

It's said I'm borderline.
But that may come down to the fact that when I asked the CIA to contribute to
the cost of a water tower and high-powered rifle, they said they couldn't help
because most of their funds were tied-up in settling a community on Mars.
'Fingers in every pie'...?! Obviously not.

If In Doubt, There's another test. (Forgive me Sol!)

CONSPIRACY THEORY TEST
How receptive are you to conspiracy theories?

like David Bowie in 'The Man Who Fell To Earth' inorder to buy up all Earth's water for his dying planet

It's a shame those two don't get along
Why do I watch this crap?

A Norwegian inlet
An invisible hypnotic command word used by our secret rulers to provoke instinctive unease
What is a what? I didn't see anything. It just said, 'What is a ' and then nothing.

18. What's wrong with the following passage?
'I keep picturing all these little kids playing some game in this big field of rye and all.
Thousands of little kids, and YOU nobody's around - nobody big, I mean - except me.
And I'm standing on MUST the edge of some crazy cliff. What I have to do, I have to catch
everybody if they start KILL to go over the cliff - I mean if they're running and they don't look
where they're going I have JOHN to come out from somewhere and catch them.
That's all I'd do all day. I'd just be the catcher in the rye and all.
I know it's LENNON crazy, but that's the only thing I'd really like to be. I know it's crazy.'
Nothing much
It's full of adolescent self-pity
You didn't ask J.D. Salinger for permission to quote it

Do you:
Welcome her in, hug her, fix her a drink, etc?
Ask her if she's alone?
Get your alleged 'mother' in a headlock, stick a gun in her mouth and threaten to blow her
head off unless she recites her maiden name and birthdate backwards in the next ten seconds?
Blow her head off on general principles - your real mother knows better than to visit without giving
the pre-arranged code signal?
Chloroform her and trepan her skull to search for alien implants?
20. You're at a party and an attractive member of the opposite sex asks you for your phone number.
Do you:
Give it to them?
Give them a false one?
Punch them in the face, leave the party quickly, change taxis twice on the way home, burn your house
down and move to another country?
Go along with it in the hope they'll have sex with you, then blow their head off before they can betray you?
Get them blind drunk and trepan their skull to search for alien implants?
SECTION EIGHT
ADVANCED NUTTINESS

Yes
No
No, but I'm careful only to voice bland, happy sentiments when near it
Only a fool imagines toasters aren't sentient lifeforms
22. Take a long, close look at your socks. How sure are you that they're the exact
same pair you put on this morning and that no-one's replaced them with a different
but similar pair at some point?
100% sure
90% sure
Not at all sure, now that you mention it
I'm alarmed that you know I'm wearing socks
I'm not wearing socks as they're a government plot to stifle your chakras or something
SCORES
[Note to editors: I've assigned numerical values to the various responses but have no idea
how to make them add up using HTML]
YOUR CONSPIRACY THEORY RECEPTIVITY RATING:
-0 - 35 LOW
35 - 70 MIDDLING
Over 70 HIGH
HOW YOU RATE:
LOW - A bit complacent, aren't you?
All is for the best in the best of all possible worlds, hmm? What you don't know can't hurt you.
Ignorance is bliss. It won't save you.
People like you will be the first against the wall when it all goes down.
MIDDLING - More savvy. Your eyes are open to the nature of the beast, but you like to weigh
up all the evidence rather than making rash uninformed pronouncements. It still won't save you.
HIGH - You are a lunatic. Unfortunately, you are right. Just because you're paranoid doesn't
mean they're not after you. Speaking of which, our government controllers tracked your terminal
some time ago. Expect a call from men in black.

I much prefer your quiz, BIAD.
On that first one I scored 2.86666 which is quite accurate but only because of the choice of answers. Had they given more precise answers to choose from, it would have been higher than that, no doubt.
Or maybe I'm just being more reasonable (no, not submissive) with age.
You quiz made me laugh...with subtle (okay, not so subtle) truths...
Quote:A member of the Royal Family, possibly the Prince of Wales, to feed on psychic energy, because
the British royal family are all aliens (look at Charles' ears for God's sake)
Laughing about it is a good thing as we should all be going insane to accept the world that we now live in.

I don't even have to take a quiz to KNOW that I am a "critical thinker"... AKA, conspiracy theorist... and proud of it!
I mean, where would the world be today if no one ever questioned anything those in power do?
We would all be micro-chipped by now and walking around like zombies obeying their commands when we got zapped by the ELF technology waves.
Yes, that's where we are headed now, but it's the conspiracy minds that have slowed down the progress long enough to expose the "evil ones" and wake others up to what is REALLY going on. Hopefully, it will be the Conspiracy Theorists that save the world from being taken over by the psychopaths that want to turn us into mindless slaves!
See? I told you I didn't need the test.

Huh, not as bad as I thought.
Now as for @perfectinsanity, with her score....and we might as well put @"mystic wanderer" in there too
Although MW would probably "break" the test, make it crash or summtin'
Quote:4. to 5. Paranoid Conspiracy Theorist! Bona fide tinfoil hat wearer! You are compulsively attracted to comprehensive conspiracy theories that try to explain the seemingly random violence in the world.

I've got to go with my gut here and say that a little bejeweling would only enhance the protective qualities of any tinfoil "project". It could also be used to temporarily blind your enemies in case of attack and to start a fire after a daring and fabulous escape :)
