According to Pew, I’m a 40 year old man

In the Pew Quiz I scored as a “Lackluster Veteran,” I guess because I’m not overwhelmingly enthusiastic about technology even though I use it all the time. I don’t really see why I should value my cell phone all that much. Hmmm.

Basic Description
Lackluster Veterans have the necessary gadgets for the information age, such as a broadband connection, cell phone, and a digital camera. But the wealth of information and communication technology possessed by Lackluster Veterans does not translate into particularly high levels of satisfaction about gadgets’ impacts on their lives. Although they seem to value internet connectivity, that is less true for cell phones.

Defining Characteristics
Lackluster Veterans do not link ICTs to better personal productivity, their ability to work with others in their community, or keeping up with family and friends. All in all, Lackluster Veterans seem content with surfing the Web or emailing others, but they do not show great inclination to stretch their technology habits to self-expression or mobile media. Very few like the extra-availability that comes with having “always on” broadband access or cell phones.

Who They Are
This group has a median age of 40 and has a lot of online experience, as the typical Lackluster Veteran has been online for about 10 years. Most of them are men – 65% – and they are well educated and comfortably financially. Some 41% are parents of a child under the age of 18.

numerology profile thing

You can get a wacky numerlogy profile of yourself here. This was mine:

Tarot Card:
Strength: Raw power. Health and physical fortitude. A surge of tremendous force. Recovery from sickness. Victory after apprehension and fear. The ability to face and overcome opposition brings the inner qualities of strength and forbearance. Delays and setbacks will be overcome.

Beware my power!

Rune:
Ansuz refers to a god or the spoken word of God. It is the voice of reason, law, prophecy and truth. It is the truth heard in the wind. This rune represents wisdom obtained or knowledge delivered. It is the rune of absolute good advice and true council – the message we all must strive to hear.

Worship me, for I speak the truth!!!!

Public Role:
Words that embody your presence are “Asia, Axe, Baby, Beer, Bread, Day, Fact, Fear, Gin, Peace, Web”.

I like Asia, Beer, Bread, Gin, Facts, Peace and the Web. I don’t know about the day, babies, and fear.

Words that embody things that you may be a part of are “Fulfillment, Industry, Television”.

Ummm…I feel fulfilled when I watch good tv, sometimes

Words that embody people or things in your periphery are “Chemistry, Fortress, Illuminati, Mercenary, Oyster, Periphery, Question, Security”.

I do know a chemist. I don’t know about having mercenary members of the illuminati in my periphery though. That sounds a little freaky.

Private Persona:
Words that embody your presence are “Fortune, Jupiter, Outcast, Pastry, Physics, Rapture, Vigilante”.

“Rapture Vigilante” sounds like a good superhero name. I’m not sure what they’d be a superhero of though.

Words that embody the causes of your circumstances are “Head”.

I hope that is not referring to this movie.
