You’re better than bad, but not quite as good as it gets. Lying and cheating to get ahead isn’t your style, but an occasional one-night stand isn’t out of the question. Nope, a one night stand is. It is not in my style to have a one nighter. Cheating isn’t my style normally either. I’ll lie occasionally, but its not a habit. When I go down, I want it to be said that I was a gentleman. ---

> [@](#): > > You were born to be bad. Naughty by nature, you’ve tried everything at least once and aren’t afraid to get your hands — or the rest of you — dirty when opportunity knocks. Whether that means plotting for a promotion at work or toying with somebody’s affections, you’re willing to break the rules. As long as you’re having fun and getting ahead, anything goes. And it is fun to defy convention every once in a while, but you’re walking a tightrope here. Every once in a while, try listening to that little angel on your shoulder who keeps saying “no!” — it’s okay to be nice sometimes. In the meantime, keep being bad and enjoy yourself. Just don’t throw caution entirely to the wind. I’m actually pretty disappointed in myself… ---

But I fudged on some of the answers. Does that make me naughty? 😉 Robin ---

You were born to be bad. Naughty by nature, you’ve tried everything at least once and aren’t afraid to get your hands — or the rest of you — dirty when opportunity knocks. why am I not suprised. ---

> [@](#): > > Bad but not terrible, you’re definitely wild at heart. Fortunately, you don’t act on all your impulses. HA! The only reason I don’t have a tattoo is I have no money. The only reason I don’t have leather clothing is I have no money. The only reason I don’t drink or do drugs more is I have no money. The only reason I haven’t had more than one one night stand is I have no chances… I WOULD act on all my impulses if I could afford it!! 😃 –Tim ---

For all those of you complaining about the test, how it doesn’t ask the right questions, how it’s not fair, for all those of you who are seeking more … well, I already linked Purity Tests. However, tonight I found out that **OpalCat** had already done this on her page. It looks kinda old, but I still feel like supporting her work, so [here’s the new link](http://fathom.org/teemingmillions/purity.html). It gives you both people’s scores, and the test they all (presumably) took. Have fun. 🙂 And **thinksnow** , thanks for your support! We now return you to your previously-scheduled thread… [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/emode-naughty-or-nice-test/46769.md?page=2)
