Sorry, I forgot to include age/gender as a 7th question; could you edit your post and specify your age, quietus?

1. A
2. Metal, Grunge, Indie
3. B

5. B
6. B
7. 26/M

I'm not clear on 3 and 4. I can like music that is not fast/aggressive and I can like music that is not soft/slow, so I said no to both. But on the other hand, having both fast/aggressive music and slow/soft music in my collection is a must. Sometimes I really want to listen to one or the other.

As for number 5, at any given moment I can be any one of those, and I think most external observers would evaluate me very differently from how I would evaluate myself. Man, this test is hard.

Edit: Everyone seems to listing what they like by means of exclusion, whereas I listed my favorite genres. Were I to do it the other way around, it would be a slight modification on Person's: Anything so long as it's not rap, Christian, or Disney or country.

It's psychology. It's not about how rich you are, but whether or not you see yourself or your family as rich.

Already did this thing on another place for him.  :heheh:

It's all relative. I grew up in a working class family in an middle class town. I was the poor kid.

Zhs2

1)D
2)Amazing stuff. What's amazing? That depends. For me, it's a very broad definition between heroic-sounding and cool. I guess I could define it more specifically as anything that sounds upbeat, uplifting, or maybe even something sounding like a tragic hero rising from the ashes and defeating his foe, even when he's lost what he's cared about the most (love themes or something like that.) It's a very general categorization that just stems from me going "Oh, this sounds amazing. Oh, this doesn't."
3)B

6)B; Extravagant? No. Enough for what we needed to stay together and love together? Yes.
