ORANGE REBELOON
Your compete MICRO*scope for today
You are the type of person who who cares little or nothing about what others think as long as they know that you care little or nothing about what they think and you're not afraid to tell them that you don't care to ensure that they know you don't care. Family and friends will not ride in the car when you're driving because you refuse to obey oppressive traffic laws, such as stop signs, speed limits, and traffic lights. Today, you are likely to spend a great deal of time waiting for visits from door-to-door solicitors hoping to buy either one of those memory foam pillows or a remote controlled train set. Be on the lookout for broken fingernail clippers. You should consider shopping at stores or businesses beginning with the letter K, but do not buy any products with a serial number or product code containing the number 548181. Your preferred shopping venue is flea markets. Your special symbol is the backslash (\).
Is this You?
As an Orange Rebeloon, you are very much the rebel and the contrarian. It is your nature to go against the grain. When everyone else is buying, you sell. When everyone else is selling, you buy. You go against the trends. You disdain fashion. If it's hot, you're not. You would march to your own drummer and dance to your own tune, if doing so wasn't so trite and conventional.
This isn't me! What am I?

The Odds On GAMBLINGI'm sure there's a great philosopher somewhere who once uttered the words, "Life's a contradiction and we're all a bunch of hypocrites." Take me for example. Just this morning I walked by Smilin' Ted's All-Comers Insurance Agency to drop off my annual shoe insurance premium (for protection against blowouts), then made a pit stop at Master Sprocket's convenience store where I plopped down five dollars on five (count 'em, five) Super Luck-O Multi-State Lottery tickets. Within a space of two blocks and twenty minutes I bought $37.56 worth of shoe insurance to avoid risk and then spent another $5 to take on some risk. Am I a walking contradiction, or what?
