Introducing the SLSBPI

There was an interesting post in the WordPress blog yesterday; you can follow the link if you want the details, but the essence of it is that Fortune has smiled upon one of our blogger brethren.

I reckon that this could be used as the basis of a one-item personality schedule for bloggers. Here’s the procedure:

  1. Ask the subject to carefully read the WordPress post, then study the blog to which it refers.
  2. Present them with this visual analogue scale:

    What is your predominant emotion at the present time?

    Vicariously Thrilled ————————— Bitterly Raging

  3. Score from -100 to 100, with 0 being the midpoint.

I scored +95. How about you?
