Meme - Obsolete Skill

[on_holy_ground]

You are 'growing one's own food'.

You are guided by two words: 'Live simply.' You
value quality over quantity in most things, and
you have little use for the materialism and
consumerism of modern culture. You know the
value of hard work and try to be
self-sufficient as much as possible, and what
you do you do well. Unfortunately, no man is
an island, and you cannot do everything
yourself. Your puritanical work ethic makes
makes people think that you are weird, and not
much fun. Your problem is that growing one's
own food has been obsolete for a long time.


What obsolete skill are you?

How in the name of our dear Lord is that an obsolete skill? I take it those who authored this particular quiz have never attempted to live off a parish priest's salary.

[on-holy-ground.livejournal.com]

Obviously not, or they would have realized that it is a skill that is indeed alive and well in the world.

[eric-weiss.livejournal.com]

Somehow it doesn't surprise me that you got that one.

[on-holy-ground.livejournal.com]

*laughs softly* It is quite similar to my personality these days.

[eric-weiss.livejournal.com]

Hence why I'm not surprised.

Look what i got!


You are 'juggling'. Jugglers, tumblers, and other
street performers were a very popular sort of
entertainment once, before movies and talkies
and online quizzes supplanted them.

You like to put on a show for people, and they like
to watch. You are friendly and well-liked,
particularly for your sense of humor, although
you sometimes play with people's heads. You
are frequently the center of attention, and you
like it that way. However, you have to realize
that the world does not revolve around you.
Furthermore, you have to learn that your
light-hearted antics are not appropriate to all
situations. Your problem is that juggling has
been obsolete for a long time.

*smiles* Well it does seem to fit with your icon.

[eric-weiss.livejournal.com]

You like the icon? *grins*

[on-holy-ground.livejournal.com]

I do, it makes me smile.

[eric-weiss.livejournal.com]

Awesome. *grins* I knew you guys would like it!

[liyavicuska.livejournal.com]

That is a useful skill to have. *confused* Why it would be considered obsolete I do not understand.

[on-holy-ground.livejournal.com]

In this day and age, most people have gone the way of the supermarket, as growing your own food is a lengthy process. I however feel it is quite a gratifying one.

[liyavicuska.livejournal.com]

Since I left Ormath I have not been able to do so as I have constantly been on the move. But it is most certainly a gratifying process.

[on-holy-ground.livejournal.com]

Indeed it is.

[liyavicuska.livejournal.com]

I also took the quiz and got the same result as you yourself did.

[on-holy-ground.livejournal.com]

I believe that we are alike in many ways.

[liyavicuska.livejournal.com]

It would seem so. *she smiles* More alike than I first thought. Of course, once you see someone's mind... that does change things.

[on-holy-ground.livejournal.com]

I can only imagine that it does.

[liyavicuska.livejournal.com]

The elves helped me regain control and taught me some of how to use my ability.

Are you well Darius? I confess I am still quite confused about how I could make one who has lived so long nervous. I would never harm you.

[on-holy-ground.livejournal.com]

I am well, thank you for asking. And it's the simple fact that anyone knows that much about me, about my life, that makes me nervous, not you specifically.

[liyavicuska.livejournal.com]

Ah. I am sorry for the intrusion that happened. I never intended to pry.

[on-holy-ground.livejournal.com]

It is all right. I am well aware that it was not intentionsal, and it is simply my own experienced that make me nervous, not you in particular.
