Well I hate the meme of the Internet quiz but every so often one of them appeals to me, and the fact that Rufus T. Firefly came up as Catch-22 while Sua Sponte turned out to be the dictionary made me think this one might be worth two minutes of procrastination from my research project. And I was delighted to discover after a short and baffling set of questions that the magical quiz-writers know me all too well. I am, apparently, the human equivalent of A Prayer For Owen Meany. That's the compliment of the day, I think.
interestingly, I was also a prayer for owen meany

Thanks a lot. I'm The Mists of Avalon:
"You are clearly a woman with several cats. You like knitting and Melissa Etheridge. You look great in plaid."

Well, I tried the test thrice (how can any lawyer answer those questions without using footnotes and disclaimers!). When I said I felt old, I was "Les Miserables!". When I said I felt young, I was "Owen Meany." When I said I felt young and liked hot weather, I was "One Hundred Years of Solitude," the first novel that I ever read twice.

Oh man, I'm a cliche. I'm friggin' Harper Lee's "To Kill A Mockingbird."
