Is the Dewey Color System bullshit?

The Dewey Color System® is now the world’s most accurate career testing instrument.  This report based on your personality traits indicates your two most enjoyable day-day-day occupation skills.

Mmmmkay? Let’s look at what it said about me.

Keywords to describe me:

Nonconforming – okay, I’ll give them that one
Impulsive- another one. Maybe this isn’t bullshit after all? Let’s continue
Expressive – Huh?
Romantic- HAHAHA! FUCK no!!!
Intuitive- not really
Sensitive- eh, not so much
Emotional- Nope

Fields of interest are: art, drama, music, and writing or places where they [I] can express, assemble, or implement creative ideas.

ALL WRONG. Art and drama? Me? LOL. Express creative ideas blah, blah, fucking blah…

Wanna give it a shot? Tell me if it nails you or does it cock it all up.

  1. This is so far off it’s not funny:

    “These conservative appearing, plotting-types enjoy organizing, data systems, accounting, detail, and accuracy. They often enjoy mathematics and data management activities such as accounting and investment management. Persistence and patience allows them to do detailed paperwork, operate office machines, write business reports, and make charts and graphs.”

    I AM MATH RETARDED. Seriously.

  2. I think we are twins. I got Nonconforming, Impulsive, Expressive, Romantic, Intuitive, Sensitive, and Emotional

  3. I was hoping for some cock but it worked out pretty well. Creativity and organization, two things I love. Something I also love? The cock.

  4. Best: Creator and Keywords, (like you) N,I,E,R,I,S and Emotional….which, if not dead on, is close, with some slop.

    2nd Best: Doer: emotionally stable, reliable, high energy, practical, thrifty, and persistent.

    Many of the occupations listed in both categories interest (or did at one time) me greatly. I exercise, utilize many of the various keywords in any number of hobbies and such.

    heh . . six of one, half dozen of another.

  5. I am creative and tactful…heheheh..fucking stupid

  6. I think you may be all those things in your own way and just don’t know and really isn’t this Blog a piece of Arty Drama all in itself?

  7. It kind of described part of me, but by the last page of that color test I was just poking at colors. I didn’t care much for any of those colors, and which one I liked best was more like Which was the least offensive and I’ll pick that one. Kind of like voting for politicians.

  8. My words are…
    Self-Control-HA!!!!!! That’s funny!!
    Practical-Not really.
    Self-Contained-Up until I pull out my nine and bust a cap.
    Orderly-HECK NO!!!
    Systematic-What the fuck does this even mean??????
    Precise-If I am, it’s purely by accident.
    Accurate-Same as above.

    Even more amusing is the blurb that describes my career stuff. It says…

    These conservative appearing, plotting-types enjoy organizing, data systems, accounting, detail, and accuracy. They often enjoy mathematics and data management activities such as accounting and investment management. Persistence and patience allows them to do detailed paperwork, operate office machines, write business reports, and make charts and graphs.

    I’d rather gouge my eyeballs out with dull oyster forks than have to do any of that shit for a living.

    Penn & Teller would definitely judge this test as BULLSHIT!!!

  9. Mine’s pretty spot-on.

    Balls.
    What Lachlan said since we got the same reading.

  11. The primary occupational characteristic is CREATOR–the artsy type. NOT ME. Not even close. I can’t even get stick figures right.

    The secondary occupational characteristics, however, were spot on:

    You’re an ORGANIZER

    Keywords: Self-Control, Practical, Self-Contained, Orderly, Systematic, Precise, and Accurate.

    These conservative appearing, plotting-types enjoy organizing, data systems, accounting, detail, and accuracy. They often enjoy mathematics and data management activities such as accounting and investment management. Persistence and patience allows them to do detailed paperwork, operate office machines, write business reports, and make charts and graphs. TOTALLY ME.

    My job? I produce econometric models (statistics) for private universities to help them effectively allocate financial aid (with an abundance of charts along the way).

    I depart from this profile in one significant way: I have a phobia with office machines.

  12. I don’t see colour.

  13. Sharon Says:

    Pretty damn close – the creator thingie – I’m a goddess!!

  14. STinNB Says:

    Nailed it…..even listed my current position as one I should pursue.

  15. well, apparently I am just retarded…..I’ve taken the test 5 times and every time I click to get my results it takes me right back to re-do the test.
    BLAH!

  16. I’m only saying this because you aren’t close enough to bitch slap me but I think your results are pretty accurate. Other than Romantic, I’ve seen you exhibit all those Keywords.

  17. I got the same keywords you did. It was pretty accurate for me. , even down to the suggested careers.

  18. my server won’t let me open it.
    Syd, you have to be at least a LITTLE romantic to snag a Latina

  19. Ok, so I got on the site.

    the first part was sooooo wrong!
    it said I was an ‘organizer’ and would do well in a large corporation! I do better in the woods with the squirrels.
    it did get one part right…
    Witty, Competitive, Sociable, Talkative, Ambitious, Argumentative, and Aggressive
    now add the word ‘sexually’ in front of each of those and you’ve really got something!

  20. Y’all broke it! I’ve tried 3 times, and it gets to the end and restarts the quiz. Piece of crap.
