I read about almost 3/4 of the joke (Making me in group 3) and then suddenly realized I was reading for almost 45 minutes. I scrolled down to the bottom and read the last paragraph...
The description for a Type 3 person was pretty accurate for me. I was born out of a Cesarean birth too! |

I actually did read the whole thing, and strangely enough, I don't regret as much as I thought I would. Although the joke was fairly useless, I'm still a sucker for a good story.
As for the analysis part, although I'm supposed to be in group one, I think the only reason I am is because my curiosity got the better of me and I wanted to read it all. I'm more of a procrastinator and non-committing person at times. |
Pretty much like me. I liked the short story, but they could have make it longer and give it a proper ending. _________________ [img]http://i49.tinypic.com/28mixpk.png[/img]

I read the whole thing throughly. The end was a bit of a let down, but it was good overall. |

Read the post above you and you'll find out.
I also read forums backwards, reading from last post to first, so I must be in the weirdo group . |

That was quite sad. I belong to the first group, by the way. |

I suppose this is a good thread for this.
There was this kid about 4 or 5 years old, and his parents took him to San Francisco. While he was there he saw a bunch of those trolleys you see in those sitcoms and the people operating them. From that day on, he wanted to be a trolley conductor. So the kid goes to school and in first grade the teacher asks him what he wants to be when he gets older, and it is kinda surprised when he says "I want to be a trolley conductor". Now most kids his age want to be a fireman or an astronaut, so it was kinda weird. So the kid grows up a little and is in seventh grade. Another teacher asks him what he wants to be, and of course he says a trolley conductor. Everyone in the class laughs because that's just a weird answer. The teacher looks at him kinda funny and moves on to the next kid. The kid moves on and graduates high school with great grades in math and physics, and his father pulls him aside and says "Son, now I'm gonna pay for your college and if you still want to be a trolley conductor, we'll support you." So he goes to college and majors in engineering, doing very well. He graduates, and his father confronts him again. He asks "So what do you want to do with your life?" Of course, he says "I wanna be a trolley conductor." The father finally gives up on the kid and he begins his training in San Francisco. He does alright, well enough to barely pass. So there he is on his first day,excited and nervous. With the trolley full, he goes flying off a cliff, the crash killing everybody but him. He is tried and convicted of 22 counts of manslaughter, and he is given the death penalty. Now in these days in California, death was still given by electric chair. The day of his execution, he is asked what he wants for his last meal. He asks for bread, cheese and a glass of wine. He finishes his meal and sits down in the chair. They shave his head and all that and strap him in. They flick the switch but nothing happens to the guy. They test the chair and it's working perfectly, but for some reason the guy isn't dying. They try it again, giving him another plate of bread and cheese and another glass of wine. Nothing happens. Now he knew that the rule was that if after three tries the prisoner doesn't die, he is let free. It was an old rule, driven by the thought that God didn't want this man to die because he was innocent. So they try it one more time, giving him his bread, cheese and wine and strapping him into the chair. This time they use so much power they black out most of San Francisco. Not a twitch. The man is set free, and a guard confronts him. "What is it about the bread, cheese and wine that protected you?" he asked. The man responds, "It has nothing to do with the bread cheese and wine, I just never was a good conductor." |
