kelly_chamblissStolen from the ultra-cool pale_moonlite. It's a problematic quiz, of course -- filled with spelling and other errors and with overly-schematic categories. But fun, like all these things. (There's no such thing as a "purely objective" language.)

That said, I'm Sartre/Camus. (I'm actually the monstrous lovechild of Philo, Hegel, and Kristeva, but never mind that.)
And of COURSE you're Wittgenstein. (Whom, for the record, I admire, in spite of his philosophy-boy acolytes.)

It was a very strange quiz.
