I was DQ’ed. Possibly because I am ancient and over age 30. ---

Thanks to **Bright** , I figured out what the problem was. Everyone over 30 was getting a “You Fucked Up!” result. Oops! Edit: Yup, **WhatsIt** , that’s why. Sorry for wasting your time on it. xD But the problem is fixed now, if anyone is curious what their real result is. ---

I just took it again and scored “Slave”. Hm. Sorry, dude, I’m taken. Why did I just take this quiz twice, anyway? Clearly I need to stop drinking so much goddamn coffee after midnight. ---

I don’t know how to make my hair look like that. : ( I’ve never used product or styled my hair or anything. Just wake up, shower and go. It was by happenstance that my hair looked as good as it did that day. I guess I could ask a stylist to try to recreate it if I provide a picture… ---

So I messaged a couple of y’all. Does anyone else see that “SDMB” reads as kinda pervy in the context of a dating website? Jus’ sayin’. ---

I at first fucked up but then retook the test after you fixed the age thing, and I got friend/fuckbuddy. I will not, however, have anal sex with you while I call you daddy, after we’ve gone out in the clothes that you pick out for me. ---

> [@HazelNutCoffee](#): > > I got disqualified and I’m under 30. Not sure what I did wrong. :: feels rejected :: Are you a man, transgender individual or hippy (“Don’t label me, man!”)? Are you a Scientologist or fundamentalist Jew, Muslim or Christian? Are you obese? Are you a lesbian? Are you under 18? Would you call the police if I came over? Did you respond “Ew!” at the idea of giving oral sex? Those are the disqualifiers. ---

I think I said I’ll call the police, upon reflection. I suppose that’s not a good basis for a relationship. ---
