I have never been a huge fan of Cry’s weekly “Sunday Funnies”. For the most part, with the noted exception of the quiz that revealed I would fit in best with the crew of Battlestar Galactica and the quiz that claimed that if compared with a superhero, I would be Buffy, I think they are completely bogus and a waste of time. Come on people, make it a little harder to cheat on them. Now I do understand that these quizzes are simply supposed to be mindless fun - an activity I usually throw myself into whole-heartedly – but I just can’t seem to find the hilarity.
Although I don’t usually find the quiz amusing, I do take the weekly quiz. I’m fair that way…at least I don’t following the tried and true “I’m an American; I don’t have to see something to know it’s stupid” philosophy. However, that might just change after the “Stipper Song” quiz…the results hit a bit to close to home and brought up some interesting ponderings. Apparently, my stripper song would be Depeche Mode’s “Master & Servant”, one of the kinkiest songs since the Divynal’s hit “I Touch Myself” – a song I might add I have on CD…don’t ask. The really disturbing part is that I like the song and in a way, I kind of agree with the song choice.
Now, perhaps I am making too much of this, but the song lyrics got me thinking, perhaps there is a little truth to this one. I mean, I don’t think it will ever be in my cards to dance as a stripper, or even participate in the activities promoted in the song. I don’t have any burning desire to have anyone “treat me like a dog/get me down on my knees” but you have to kind of respect the observation later on in the song that “Domination’s the name of the game/In bed or in life/They’re both just the same”. See…a pretty valid life philosophy found by taking a stripper song quiz. I don’t think I’ll adopt it, but hey I can at least ponder it for awhile…Perhaps there is more to these quizzes than I thought!
