Apparently the link you posted goes to your results.

Which chicken breed are you?

You found it!

 

[casportpony]

I am!

I beg to differ.

 

[CindyinSD]

Hmm... that didn't work. Not sure this is the same test, but...

And here's the other one:

I genuinely don't want to hurt your feelings, Carp, but you are certainly NOT the only person who's had a rough time in school. I was ridiculed and mocked incessantly. Why? I honestly have no idea. Thinking about it now, I suppose I didn't stand up for myself as I ought to have done. I was raised to be nice to people no matter what. This strategy only works among civilized people. It does not work in the chicken coop.

Let me tell you what made me stop feeling sorry for myself. I was at a church service--one of those mega-churches, so a LOT of people. I was in my mid-twenties, I guess. It was a long time ago. Anyway, a LOT of people there, and the theme was some kind of emotional healing schtick. The thing that made an impression on me though, was when the guest speaker asked people to stand if they were picked on, traumatized, made to feel worthless, etc. in school.

I wasn't gonna do it. After all, who wants to get THAT crap started again? Besides, being at the bottom of the pecking order is embarrassing. But guess what? Almost everybody there stood up! Lots of them had tears streaming. I was prepared to sit there and smoulder at all the people who didn't stand, because obviously those would be the bullies. At that point I figured I'd better stand, too.

The point is, I wasn't alone. If even half the people standing had had experiences like mine (or perceived that they had), then what I went through in school wasn't unusual at all, and I had best just get over it. Which is what I did.

Which is what you need to do too, Carp. Get over it. Nobody has thinned out your cerebral cortex. That's silly and it's never gonna be a viable excuse for anything. What matters more, you will deprive the world of a brilliant microbiologist, your wife of an admirable husband, your children of a wonderful father and yourself of a wonderful life.

Yeah...it's time to get over it.

Never mind that! We want to know what kind of chicken you are!

I'm not sure if I have posted a link to this before, but it's an interesting test:
https://www.humanbenchmark.com/tests/reactiontimeIt should be done on a computer. I can score decently fast for reaction time if I am focused enough, but my average score across 5 attempts tends to be lower.
I took it multiple times, all after 1 AM, and I was awake for most of the day prior, so that may have reduced my performance somewhat:

As you can see, the average scores tend to be lower, because I tend to lose focus and screw up, like with this result:

Here are the statistics for the reaction time test:
https://www.humanbenchmark.com/tests/reactiontime/statisticsWhile reaction time is a crude physiological indicator of general intelligence, the correlation is far from perfect, so it probably doesn't mean much on it's own if you have a particularly fast or slow reaction time.

This one is BS because I am fast. Do my results show I am fast or slow?

Slow, LOL. But like I said, it should be taken on a computer, as a phone will take longer to register your response, artificially slowing it.
