don't worry jason, I'm sure you're the bigger pomo ho

theory slut
You are a Theory Slut. The true elite of the
postmodernists, you collect avant-garde
Indonesian hiphop compilations and eat journal
articles for breakfast. You positively live
for theory. It really doesn't matter what
kind, as long as the words are big and the
paragraph breaks few and far between.


What kind of postmodernist are you!?

I'm a ... Gender Nazi?

"You are a Gender Nazi. Your boundary-crossing lifestyle inspires awe in your friends and colleagues. Or maybe they're just scared you will kick their asses for using gender-specific language. Either way, the wife-beater helps."

So..yeah. That's me in a nutshell. a boundary-crossing, ass-kicking, wife-beater-wearing Nazi.
I also look strikingly similar to the genderless wonder in the picture I got. and it's true. I have no sex. yeeha.

Disappointingly, I'm also a Theory Slut. I'm not sure how this is possible when another option was the Revisionist Historian, and another option was some hot chick in skintight latex, but there you have it.

i too am a "gender nazi", and as such, take offense to the conceptual linkage of gender equality and ethnic cleansing.

taking offense isn't very po-mo, is it? oh well.

that butch in the picture is hella hot, though, i have to say.

You are a Tortured Conceptual Artist. Your fellow postmodernists call you an anachronism, but you've never cared much about the opinions of others. After all, most of them are far too simple-minded to appreciate the nuances of your work. They talk, while you are part of a lived tradition.

I don't think I've ever had a quiz be so wrong.

ps-jolie, when are you returning to DC? I'll be there until the 3rd

there was a hot butch? damn, wish I had been a gender-nazi. I'll have to go retake the quiz for the sake of the pic.

marina - I won't be back until Jan 12th. I heard you won't be in the bay area for new year's, punk.

"you've never cared much about the opinions of others"

maybe it was right after all...

whip-crack!

um, OUCH

You are a Cyberculture Floozie. The theoretical aspects of postmodernism interest you only insofar as they can be used to make cool blinky things. You probably take psychedelics and know at least one programming language (HTML counts!). Other postmodernists call you a corporate whore. They're probably just jealous because you make more money than them.

the picture for this one was SWEET. one of the results knows someone with scabies though. i wish i was that one. except for how it was the grassroots anti everything one. bah.

cool blinky things!

inside, i'm still laughing at marina. that girl is FUN-ny.

Posted by: michele on December 9, 2003 04:31 PM

muah, ha, ha, ha.

i'm here to please. wait, now i'm conflicted. goddamn me and being the tortured artist. sigh.

jolie-well, when are you coming up to the bay area? i'm trying to get myself out there for the 17-19th.

Erica, I think I have discovered the secret to being labeled a gender Nazi:

It's counter-intuitive, though. When they ask you about recreational reading, you would think 'Mein Kampf' would be the obvious choice for a Nazi ...

...you'd be wrong, however. It's fashion magazines. Take it from the Nazi, for the Nazi should know.

Posted by: kati on December 9, 2003 08:37 PM

whoops, sorry. That was for Jolie. Erica has already seen this person.

Posted by: kati on December 9, 2003 08:38 PM

I know! The Mein Kampf option is totally misleading.

Marina (and anyone else who cares) - I will be in the bay area from Dec. 30 - Jan 11th. I'm pretty sure that we will miss eachother entirely. Tragic. It's a good thing we got lots of QT in this summer!
