I’m Trillian. And I’m a chick IRL. ---

Yet another Zaphod reporting in. Not what I expected… ---

Another thing we have in common – I’m a Trillian too. Given the ratio of male to female Trillians, I’d say the odds are in our favor. _Get 'em, ladies!!! Yaaaahh!!_ :Gleefully charges male Trillians: CJ ---

I’m Arthur. My love of tea is surely the cause. ---

Trillian. It’s the “science and intellect” thing, isn’t it? ---

You’re Trillian! Ah, you’re probably the intelligent one who prefers being scientific, just because it sounds nice. You might hang in the shadows a little bit as a secretary, but this universe has big plans for you. If you keep an outgoing personality and overcome shyness, you could be quite powerful. Hmmmm. . . . ---

I was stunned to discover that I was Arthur, then I went back and checked the answers, and realized I had accidentally picked my favorite food as being something very dead and cooked, instead of the _actual_ answer which is Foreign, or not very intelligent and rather worthless. Thus I reassumed my personality as Ford. Guess I got a little mad there. ---

Zaphod here. I imagined I was more of a Ford, but apparently one of my brains isn’t working right. Time for another drink. ---

Trillian. (Male variety.) Yet, I put in lots of Marvin’s answers… [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/hitchhikers-guide-to-the-galaxy-personality-test/170585.md?page=3)
