There is a bizarre online Pull-o-meter, but I have a suspicion that it is somewhat focused towards the "mundane" (and straight) scene. However, if you would like to find out how much damage you would do out there, go ahead.

Unfortunately, the results are not directly pastable ... but if you get to the page which says "click here to get your results" and copy the URL (which contains the raw data to evaluate your results), other people will be able to laugh at your performance as a mainstreamer.

So, you can click here to see what my answers apparently said about me (while disguised as a straight male mundane, but giving otherwise accurate answers). I think that they lie. Quantitative research would suggest so, anyhow (with apologies to [livejournal.com profile] littleangel_103, [livejournal.com profile] gemoon, and other bastions of qualitative research ...)

Shy Girl

Always in control, and that often works out the best on a holiday night out, But stop playing it so safe! We know its not cool to get wasted, but you need to let down your hair and live a little! Perhaps a bit of dutch courage will give you that pep you need to go for it a bit more.

59% chance of pulling.

So not only am I a nerd but I can't pull either. Pah!

Yeah. As if! [grin]

you need to let down your hair

"Why, Miss Jones ..."

63% chance of pulling apparently. ;)

Which makes you a shy girl too. Hmm. What does that say about me? [grin]

They don't have an option for 'all of the above'
Bah!

Nor for "a nice pint of Cider and Black, or a Red Witch if you serve it ... and a nice pillow ...", or "several pints of iced water for me, please, I'm dancing my ass off" ...

"You’re no shrinking violet, that’s for sure, and confidence is half the battle in the pulling game, but you’ve still got to take a bit more care of yourself during an evening out if you’re going to stay at the peak of your pulling powers. Don’t want to wake up next to a minger now do we"

Given my legendary crapness at 'pulling' I think this shows it to be a bit useless. I am also completely straight and did answer as honestly as the choices would allow me.

God I used to hate trying to meet people at clubs and whatnot, so glad that being happily married to an amazing wife makes it all in the past now. :o)

being happily married to an amazing wife

Also manages to avoid any risk of waking up next to a minger ... [grin]

I got the same text but my score (lol) was only 57% ...
Wednesday, March 24th, 2004 06:34 am (UTC)
Shy Guy. 75% - They've got my number, but I don't believe the chance for a minute.

For a laugh I tried the worst combination of stuff possible (dressing silly, not doing anything with the stained top, drugs, being obnoxious, picking the worst target) and still got 25% (Beer Monster rating). There must be hope for me yet! ;)

I got 86%. High on confidence, low on sensible. I actually picked choices I would make for a goth night too. Good to know I've got what it takes to pick up trendies and townies too. (shudder)

Gutted! [grin]

"Girl guide

You know what you want, and have your evening planned out to the last detail as to just how you’re going to get it."

Seems apt ... [grin]

So what percentage is that? Or is it just the score for "engaged and living with fiance"? [grin]

Go on, let your hair down! [grin] Then again, do we actually want to be able to pull on an Ibiza night? Personally, an evening at B-Movie sounds like a much better proposition ...
Wednesday, March 24th, 2004 07:34 am (UTC)
65%. Guess that means the trendies don't want me. And my success while sharking in the past was pure fluke. How will I sleep at night?
Wednesday, March 24th, 2004 12:20 pm (UTC)
Shy girl. 60%.

Generous. :)
Wednesday, March 24th, 2004 01:17 pm (UTC)
Shy girl - chance of pulling 51%. I was a bit offended, actually, especially as it told me to drink more. I can't say I've ever had a problem with pulling the people I was interested in...

Ice-man, you look the part and keep your cool, relax live a little and things can only get better. A little unfair I feel, still better than being goose :)

*You've lost that loving feeling, oh than loving feeling.....*

So much better than being Goose - and taller than Maverick as well ... and later on, you get to star in your own films ...
