This morning I came across an interesting website that assigns you to a fictional character after a short quiz.

I thought to myself that surely some of us would like to find out if they are more likely to be assigned to "Obi-Wan Kenobi" or "Gene Belcher".

Example of possible result:

This is a result with random clicks - not me

I tried this for fun, but the results, even for amusement, are meaningless to me as I have literally never heard of any of these characters before! I guess they are American film or TV characters but as I never watch stuff like that it all went somewhat over my head. ?

My situation is more problematic, I never heard of any of these English terms (deranged, reclusive, ...).

Maybe I need to start reading English books and not only programming documentation

I did the test and apparently I'm the facehugging alien from the movie Alien:




Just kidding, I got a 90% match to Michael Scofield from the TV show Prison Break. He died in the show, so I'm not sure what conclusion I should draw from that.

I was an 89% match to something called Dexter Morgan but again that means nothing to me

The bad news is that Dexter was a mass murderer. The good news is that he only killed people who deserve it (according to him, anyway).

Afraid that won't help - the writing goes in the wrong direction ... . . .you need the one in Reverse Polish Notation.

yes, but who wouldn't want the skills of a forensic blood spatter analyst (dexter's day job) when trying to figure out that Pesky B4x algorithm? and one's own TV series

True. Plus one thing that I failed to mention: he's very charming and almost everybody likes him. Excluding the people he chops up, of course, they tend to not like him a lot.

He also "masqurades" as an undertaker in the series Six Feet Under - that dude has a strange career. (Michael C. Hall)
