You Scored as The Prince

Machiavelli's perfect ruler you are incredibly manipulative and have a firm understanding human nature. An ideal politician you're about as dislikeable as a person can possibly be.

???? Manipulative???? Moi???? Either I am incredibly un-self-aware or the test is bogus. I don't think I understand people at all. As for being unlikeable, well, that has been my experience.

The fountainhead

Ayn Rand’s man par-excellence; you are not a very nice person, but don’t particularly care. Despite being the archetype for ethical egoism you have little problems raping women or blasting buildings with dynamite and hate pity in any form. One of your most notable characteristics is a peculiar inability to change, something your sycophantic friends often praise.

You Scored as The Underground Man
Dostoevsky’s creation, you are completely and purposefully detached from life. Rarely acknowledged for your obvious superiority, however sometimes pathetic people do cling to you. All in all, you prefer the comfort of your own fantasy world to the difficulty of relating to others. I strongly advise that you stop playing World of Warcraft and get a life!

Funny that . . . I was just thinking that I'd like the take a little time out of my life and START playing WOW.

You Scored as Ubermensch

You are Friedrich Nietzsche's ideal overman. Challenging conventional morality and beliefs you overcome the nihilism of a world without god by utilising the will-to-power to create your own values. An artist by nature you express yourself in a distinctly Dionysian (creative) way.

You Scored as Ellsworth Toohey

Congratulations, you are everything Ayn Rand hates. In all probability a friendly, admirable intellectual type with lots of friends and conservative tastes. Not quite an Ubermensch, you are still cool. One day you may even achieve your secret ambition and become the first dictator of America.

Apparently I'm tied as an Ubermensch and The Underground Man (it gave me a tie breaker question, even, and that put Ubermensch ahead).

I think mine are pretty accurate--a split between an Ubermensch and an Underground (Wo)man. I think in the past, I would have gotten Underground Man, but these days am moving in a more Ubermensch direction. So it makes sense.

It was fun to read all the results and compare them to my own...it was also interesting to find out that I currently have no life ...ha ha...

You Scored as Sadean Libertine

You wouldn’t be out of place in any of the Marquis de Sade’s literature. Manipulative, callous and amoralistic you loathe religion and all other constraints; often rebelling against authority solely for the sake of rebelling. The world is a playground to satiate your sadomasochistic tendencies and anyone who opposes such enjoyment better be stronger than you.
