Haha! Nice monkey. Missed you too, mate... Great to have the site back up again. I'd almost forgotten about it until I remembered to check yesterday, then WHAM! - there it is.

I'm glad you realized the obvious winged, I agree as well that you are priceless.


So are a lot of people, most in fact. I feel regret for making this thread now since some might give it some merit and lessen their opinions of themselves.






That being said, I think I am worth the .05 if you return me to a store to redeem the deposit.

That isn't very bad. But I guess it's better than 1,000,000.

"You are worth exactly $1,901,850"
So does any one want to compare the "breakdown of how much each category adds to your value" like I got $1000 for being blue eyed $5000 for being right handed and $25000 for being straight:P I wonder how they come up with what these all are worth

Seeing that the human body is worth about the same as these elements in percentage of your body weight ... I'd say the fatter you are the more you are worth =P

65% Oxygen (Lucky we're still untaxed for that)
18% Carbon (Make a nice fire with marshmellows (?))
10% Hydrogen (got to be some water near)
3.6% various minerals and salts (dig a hole, dig a hole ^_^)
3.4% Nitrogen (Available at your local Model-Car sailesman-type-person ... just build a destilator)
These are somewhat harder to get:
Calcium (1.5%)
Phosphorus (1.0%)
Potassium (0.4%)
Sulfur (0.3%)
Sodium (0.2%
Chlorine (0.2%)
Magnesium (0.1%)
Iodine (0.1%)
Iron (0.1%)


All in all the human body is pretty cheap material-wise ... no gold or diamonds anywhere in our chemical structure (lucky us, else we might even work....errr...be worked from in a diamond mine =P)

Anywayz, the test seems to be positioned more on the "how much do people look up to you"-scale then the actual worth. I mean Vincent van Gogh never had any social status and see what he is worth now ... his paintings will serve an example for lot of future generations (personally I don't give a rats-tail about his paintings ... just example wise).

Still pretty funny people take these tests though ... don't mind me just passing trough!

Ah, CommDante, that's measuring how much a human body is worth. That carries the misconception that a cadaver is of equal financial status as its living equivalent, complete with original thought processes, increased IQs, physical aptitude, personal interaction, etc.

As welcome as your in depth analysis of a rather simplistic and humourous online test is, you failed to account for the entire ideal in the first portion of your argument, maintiang that it's initially geared towards the body.

It seems to be geared more around "what brand of social benefit does your continued existence seem to apply to life and the world in general, or what potential does it have for benefitting manking as a whole?" and failing that, it's just a silly little quiz.
