Further evidence that I am a Heartless Cur

Robert Jordan, as many of you will know by now, is dead. Uncharitably, my first reaction was to laugh for about ten minutes. I guess that the "House Greyjoy" mantle is more appropriate than I first thought. My thoughts go out to his family and close friends, and to his loyal fans who purchased every one of his books in the hopes he'd decide to get to the point. I guess it's too late now. Rest in Peace.

House Greyjoy

Your Score: House Greyjoy 90% Dominant, 36% Extroverted, 36% Trustworthy Brutal. Opportunistic. Unforgiving. Rising again, harder and stronger, you are of House Greyjoy. You are a dominant personality. Although you are neither the strongest nor the most cunning, you bend the weaknesses of others to your own advantage. Extremely opportunistic, you are the Wendy Pepper of Westeros, letting everyone fall over themselves and get tangled up before springing lightly over the pile of bodies. When others criticize you, you’re more likely to cut out their tongue than lend an ear. Your arrogance is hard-wired into you to such a degree that you barely recognize other human beings to be of your same species, let alone your equals. You are also introverted, which means that nobody knows what the hell is going on inside your head. Spontaneous and extremely impulsive, your actions will always take people by surprise. As such, it’s unlikely that you have many friends or allies in the wide world; people just don’t find you trustworthy. And there’s a reason for that, too, which is... You’re untrustworthy! You are opportunistic, greedy, stubborn, and more-than-willing to climb over anyone you must to get to the top. You are unwilling to compromise on anything, and instead of using strategy, you try to eliminate as many of the other players as possible. Let’s face it—by conventional moral standards, you’re just not a very admirable person. Perhaps if you stopped laughing when people cut their fingers off at your dinner parties...? Representative characters include: Aeron Greyjoy, Asha Greyjoy, and Victarion Greyjoy Similar Houses: Baratheon, Frey, and Lannister Opposite House: Tully When playing the game of thrones, you play it buck naked, flappin’ in the breeze. Link: The Song of Ice and Fire House Test written by Geeky_Stripper on OkCupid, home of the The Dating Persona Test Well well well. Not exactly what I was expecting. Just to reassure all of you, I am completely and utterly trustworthy. And my morals are excellent. I promise. (Thanks to The Swivet, via Bookswede , for the quiz)
