Thanks for the suggestion!

Anyone else have one?

Archived comment by arlene:
Denise, might I suggest glue? The stuff that they use to glue the call number labels?

Archived comment by Bryan:
And they will, by book, hook or crook.

DDC-- Dewey Decimal Classification, btw. Although we use the LCC (Library of Congress Classification) here.

Archived comment by Lisa:
daen-- wow, a DDC (Dewey Decimal System) reference! :)
yeah, librarian humor. I think my froot bat's taking a nap in the stacks.

Archived comment by daen:
Sorry, Lisa. Perhaps I haven't been paying enough attention.
I suppose you could just file him under 599.4 InP if you already have a froot bat.

On a largely unrelated note, saw a presentation on tribe in Papua New Guinea whose primary protein source is fruit bats (note spelling).
Froot bats are much cuter.

daen-- thanks for the froot bat, although I've delurked quite a while ago-- I'm just an infrequent poster.
tim-- thanks for the contemplation. :)

Rob my local WalMart, see if they have my pictures.

Archived comment by Saint:
51% pure, by the Spark. Not enough time to take the other one. As for confession time....

a. My wife and I have done it in the park, in several local restaurants (only in the restrooms, unfortunately--we're still looking for a place with dim lighting, long tablecloths, and private booths so as to change that), in the parking lot of the Mormon church, in the back seat while on the way to Durango with a couple of friends (hey, they thought it was cute), while driving to Albuquerque, and in the movie theater (but not at the last movie we watched, which was Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets--first showing on opening day, too many kids).

b. If I can't get my computer fixed soon, I'm going to rob Wal-Mart so I can buy a new one.

The story should stay in its shroud of secrecy. It just should.

The b/f is a truck driver. I went along on a particularly long haul. That's all I'm saying.

hey... HEY! i'm waaaaay purer than monk! i think those tests are fixed. anyway, think of us as 'vitamins'...

That might not be strong enough Denise, so I've brewed you something more powerful..

Archived comment by steff:
i was kind of wondering the same thing, denise. yikes! although, i think i only came out as pure as i did because i don't drink, smoke, or partake of illegal substances.

Archived comment by Denise:
*shining my halo*

Wow... I feel positively... pure! (Standing next to Apple) hehe

And I thought my 50% was bad...

Just kiddin' Apple. You know we love ya, crazy girl.

Some of the stuff on those lists was seriously twisted and it makes me wonder if Monk has done all but 15% of what's on them.

I mean, Monk isn't...um... playing with dead people is he?

Archived comment by Rotten Apple:
Oh! My! God! I got a 23% on the Sparks! 8^o

On the Armory one I got 39%.

97% are more pure than I am! 8^o

(Really, I shouldn't be quite so shocked. That trip to Oklahoma murdered my score.)

Archived comment by tim:
Sorry daen...I was contemplating luscious-ness.

Archived comment by daen:
Lisa-- since Monk & tim forgot, I suppose I'll have to step in.
Here's your froot bat; welcome to IP.
Name your froot bat (and let us know); take good care of him; please put gender indication after your name for the next three posts--(m) or (f).
Yes, I realize it's fairly obvious in your case, but I thought daen was fairly obviously an (f), and it wasn't obvious at all. So now we hedge our bets and ask all our new posters to include m or f.

Archived comment by Impure Monk:
well....if I'm at 15/20% now, then what will my numbers be after I finish my "ToDo" list of ideas that I got from taking these tests?

I could seriously be under 10% pure.

I must go meditate - and search for volunteers.

Thanks for welcome to tim and Monk the Impure.

Archived comment by Kris the Girl:
That sounds about right, Monk. Why are you freaking out? ;)

Archived comment by Monk:
Holy @#$*!!

15% on the spark.

20.2% on the Armory (79.8% sexually corrupt)

KATS Monk

Archived comment by ParU:
OK - now that I have some more time - I was an 87.3% on the Armory test, but a whole lot of those things were from a LONG time ago.

Oh and Mistress Denise - I got an emergency email from your IT dept.--something about a purity test on your system and they want you to come down and talk about it (and they want to change your score!). *g*

Archived comment by Monk:
Hedo Club - under a 50% on either exam!

Welcome Luscious Librarian Lisa. You are now introduced to Daen (f), the Librarian (f) aka Cute Librarian, and ....who else. It's early in the morning but I'm sure we had a whole cadre of librarians here....

Archived comment by Paul:
Yes, Denise, it is a form of inocculation. Or rather, inocculation is an attempt to artificially do the same thing.

I've come to the conclusion that the natural way tends to be better overall. Not that I'm gonna go out there and start eating dirt- but I'm a lot less freaked out by dirt than I was. Part of that comes with having kids, of course.

Archived comment by tim:
My favorite kind of librarian!!!
: )
Thanks...that just made my day
God, I'm easily amused.

Archived comment by Lisa:
Sheesh, I haven't done a purity test in years. My results haven't changed much since the last time I took the test, though-- 45% Spark Test, 53.4% ACL.
I confess to being a luscious librarian.

Archived comment by A.F.S.P.:
I am also denied access to the test, but I'd say I was pretty pure. I'm only 16, I haven't had time to do anything really bad.

"Look at me, I'm Sandra Dee,
Lousy with virginity..."

Although I am posting when I should really be studying.

Archived comment by Jon:
Heh. My post about the Armory score never went through, but it was something like 87.4 percent... I only *think* dirty. ;p

Archived comment by Bryan:
Will, according to the Spark, I'm 71% pure, due to alcohol, tobacco, language and fights.

Archived comment by Denise:
Isn't that, in a round-about way, the basis for the concept of innoculation?

Archived comment by Paul:
Time to do something *really* revolutionary- go back on-topic!

There was a study done a year or two ago in which it was found that people who were raised with animals have fewer allergies than people without, and that people in less clean environments had fewer diseases overall because their immune systems were more used to fighting germs than those of us who live in overly-clean environments. So in a sense being exposed to germs *will* make you healthier...

Archived comment by umrguy:
Littlesparrow, yes I did (see my scores and the 20 or so point difference between the two).

Actually Eileen, I'm pretty sure I should belong squarely in the middle, as there are a number of those things on the list that I wouldn't mind doing (probably not nearly as many as Monk has or would like to, but still) but just haven't had the chance to do yet. (Just getting to third base comes to mind....)

Archived comment by Kris the Girl:
Spark score was 65% pure. Whatever.

Archived comment by littlesparrow:
Sparks: 55%
Armory: 69%
Did anyone else have this much of a difference in their scores?

Archived comment by Kris the Girl:
81.6% pure on the Armory one...which is pretty good, considering that a)by most standards, I'm an *actual* virgin, and b)very little on that list has happened in the past 3 years.
I've taken thespark one before, I don't remember my score tho.

Archived comment by Maelle:
And 72% on the other one. The one thats got the 500 questions. Im a good girl =)

Archived comment by Maelle:
I did that test a while ago (3 months ago), and it congratulate me at the end for being the first (or one of the first?) to get 50%. THen just recently I did it, and I was 58%, and they said ther said only 2% of the people taking it were like me. So....I dunno if that's good or what. I mean pure what? Evil? Good? Honest?
