On LA

After mycroftca:

LA Insider
You scored 78 Angelenos!
Good job; you have quite extensive knowledge of the LA area. Any of your friends can call you when they’re lost and need directions in LA. While you know LA about as well as anyone, keep exploring because LA has more secrets that you have yet to uncover.
Hope you enjoyed the test!

My test tracked 1 variable How you compared to other people your age and gender:

You scored higher than 25% on Angelenos

Probably about right.

I don’t know which is more annoying about these quizzes: being asked to join a dating site every time I take one (though I’m perfectly aware that the purpose of the quizzes is simply viral marketing), or having to hide the banner ads whenever I decide to fill it out at work. Still, they’re higher quality than the stuff you typically find at Quizilla.

(Hmm, is an angeleno anything like a neutrino? Using it as the scoring unit makes it sound like some sort of particle for Star Trek to use as a plot device.)

    1. Oh, I know the term. It’s just that the way it’s used sounds less like it refers to a person and more like it refers to a unit of measurement.

      Though I suppose given the hosting site, perhaps they should have phrased it as “You scored with X Angelenos” 😉
