Really, I'll read almost anything people put in front of me. At least I think so. I could be wrong.
Heroes
George Bailey from It's a Wonderful Life.
Frodo Baggins and Sam Gamgee.
This one Japanese guy I read about once.
I'm also kind of impressed by Leibniz.
You may think you speak "Standard English straight out of the dictionary" but when you step away from the Great Lakes you get asked annoying questions like "Are you from Wisconsin?" or "Are you from Chicago?" Chances are you call carbonated drinks "pop."
You scored as Rachel. As a product of Rachel's mind, you live in an intense world with strongly drawn emotional lines. Your loves are very intense and sometimes tragic, as are all of your emotions. There is a strong likelihood that you will perish destroying a great evil, and in doing so realize the full purpose of the supernatural gifts you have been given.
You scored as White Knife Trilogy, You belong in the White Knife Trilogy. Wanderers, mystical objects, and ancient legends pass through your life, for apparently no reason.
You scored as Hobbes. You are Hobbes! Resourceful, laid back, optimistic, understanding, and able to put up with Calvin on a day-to-day basis. You are the best type of friend, someone who you can get in fights with and look at comic books with, someone who will send prank letter to you through the amil and someone who leds over cliffs with you. What more could anyone ask for?
