Bitchin' Blog Posts
Links of Fun, Sad, and Awesome
by SB Sarah | May 20, 2008 | Tuesday at 7:08 pm | 46 CommentsDid you know there are really about fourteen other pages on the internet? Really, it’s a trick done with mirrors. I’m not sure how. I’m not sure if we even exist. I need to go lie down now.
From Jenyfer Matthews, a silly link courtesy of KY Massage oil: Are you British In Bed? Discover your sexual nationality. I, apparently, am 79% Taiwanese, which is hugely amusing considering that I’m the non-Asian half of the Bitching Duo. I now wonder if I am more Asian than Candy. Probably not.
From Barb Ferrer, a link to her part of the Chica-Lit Blog tour, which contains an excerpt from a previously written piece, and a challenge for commenting. For ever comment she receives to the entry, she’ll be donating an additional $5 on top of her initial $150 donation to a charity which assisted her friends before and after the tragic death of their daughter.
And from Ernmeister, the Icelandic Phallological Museum. Is there a better way to honor the wildlife of your country than to amass “a collection of over one hundred penises and penile parts belonging to almost all the land and sea mammals that can be found in Iceland”? The curator, one Sigurdur Hjartarson, is photographed there next to one prize specimen. Boy howdy, indeed.

I’m 57% swedish apparently. The website played Dancing Queen for me. I’m not sure what to think about it.
Catherine said on 05.20.08 at 07:52 PM
I’m 90% Swedish in bed. Apparently I have no inhibitions in the bedroom and wish all underwear would be banned, even “on old ladies during winter.” Nice.
Ciara said on 05.20.08 at 07:54 PM
I’m 77% Swedish in bed. (And I really am part Swedish!)
It gave me a recipe for Swedish meatballs.
My favorite part was “you are making love to your partner and suddenly you notice your cat is staring at you.” So true.
word: big34
enough said.

Take it more than once. You get some different questions. I took the quiz four times and got 4 different nationalities. LOL French, Tawainese, Russian, and Swedish!
R. said on 05.20.08 at 08:14 PM
Hur! I’m ‘78% Brazilian’! :D
I am so loving’ this, already.
Ah-hhh, nothing like being arrested for having too much fun.
Ilona said on 05.20.08 at 08:44 PM
90% Brazilian!!! Not bad for a true european lady :D
Kim said on 05.20.08 at 08:56 PM
69% French… which is a bit upsetting as I *am* British lol
DS said on 05.20.08 at 09:28 PM
What does it say about me that I don’t care about my nationality in bed so much as sniggering over the Phallological Museum’s clickable link for “Honorary Members”?
Kelly Anne said on 05.20.08 at 09:29 PM
79% Italian. Not at all Italian, but I do enjoy Verdi…
DBN said on 05.20.08 at 09:43 PM
66% Brazilian… but I accidentally skipped the lights on or off question. I don’t care either way, though.
Lizzie (greeneyed fem) said on 05.20.08 at 09:48 PM
76% Brazilian! And I didn’t get the cat or the lights on/off questions—the phone question was cute, tho’.
RStewie said on 05.20.08 at 10:00 PM
78% Brazilian…I think my stroking it answer to the cat question put me over the top, but it didnt’ mention how said attention-deficit cat would’ve acted sans petting, so maybe I’m a little more staid than originally thought.
OMG, though, thanks so much for the “Hello, Welcome to the KY Passport” vocal at the beginning!! Good lord, I don’t know who heard that before I could turn the computer down…NSFW, indeed!
spamword: image35…indeed, mine is ruined…or maybe not. Perhaps I should forward my results?
Reileen said on 05.20.08 at 10:10 PM
I saw an article on MSNBC about the phallological museum, and when the article described the place as “part trophy room”, I thought to myself: “So, does this mean that they occasionally decorate the penii with sunglasses, party hats, and paper streamers?”
*dies* And my word is “members99”. Why, yes, I imagine there’s at least 99 members over at that museum…
Julianna said on 05.20.08 at 10:13 PM
I’m 55% Italian, which seems a little… inconclusive? What’s the other 45%? Maybe I’m a true cosmopolitan.
Joanna S. said on 05.20.08 at 10:43 PM
SB Sarah - I’m only 9% less Taiwanese than you! I came it at 68%...hmmm. I have an aunt who is Chinese, so I guess that makes us both tangentially Asian!
jocelynnesimone said on 05.20.08 at 10:50 PM
90% Italian… which makes me happy since I have a degree in Italian.
Hah. Interesting idea but what a mess.
Arethusa said on 05.20.08 at 11:06 PM
I’m the only Russian so far?
Uhhhh…HMMMmmmmmm. Don’t recall any Slavic relatives. Maybe I should ask the parents. Heh.
Wryhag said on 05.20.08 at 11:29 PM
85% French, which is just plain damned weird for a Pole Germ. I’m almost ashamed . . . except that I don’t shame easily because I’m, well, more French than I realized.
Wryhag said on 05.20.08 at 11:41 PM
I remember Melville talking about sperm-whale schwans in Moby-Dick and doing it with inimitable, Melvillean humor and relish. But me? I just like ‘em straight-up and cut. (Oops, TMI a la LKH.)
I really do like the word phallus. It has a kind of classical classiness and inspires me with awe. Too bad it’s fallen out of fashion. But I suppose if modern erotic-romance readers came across that word, they’d assume the hero and heroine had some kind of reverse Pygmalion thing going on. (Hey, there’s an idea!)
shot81 - hahaha
kim2 said on 05.20.08 at 11:46 PM
Hmmm.. I am 67% Congolese!
Like the murky water of the Congo, your lovemaking is wild and unpredictable and always, always deep. You are very possessive of your territory in the bedroom and always put up a fight before being conquered.
Sounds like an old Johanna Lindsey book I read.
GrowlyCub said on 05.21.08 at 12:02 AM
I went from 54% Taiwanese to 86% Congolese… I think the less said the better about that, rofl. For once the ad agency came up with something not completely idiotic… he he
Is nobody British? Do we determine from that that Brits don’t have sex? :)
alia said on 05.21.08 at 12:15 AM
cub- dh is british, and i canm attest to the sexxoring in the bed.
the passport lady was disturbing because i have a british friend who looks just like her! argh!...
and i was 67% russian… which is actually almost true. (ukranian… polish… it’s all been overrun by the same barbarians…)
Steph said on 05.21.08 at 12:30 AM
I got 67% in bed, not very British I suppose
Eunice said on 05.21.08 at 01:05 AM
78% Taiwanese. Dude.
Josie said on 05.21.08 at 01:17 AM
68% Congolese - I’m totally all about putting up a fight before being conquered. Rowr
Miri said on 05.21.08 at 01:19 AM
I loved the passport agent!
Shiloh Walker said on 05.21.08 at 02:03 AM
I’m 89% swedish. Heh. That was fun. But undies do have their uses.
Tina C. said on 05.21.08 at 02:47 AM
Depending on the quiz, I’m either 50% Italian (1st one), 89% Brazillian (2nd one), or 87% French. I do like the French one, though, because it gave me a recipe for coq au vin and said my song was Hymne A L’amour, by Edith Piaf. Very cool!
GrowlyCub said on 05.21.08 at 02:47 AM
Alia, I meant did nobody score as British on the test? :) So far it looks like nobody did. Which I think is funny.
On a personal level, I had no complaints when I lived in Scotland… grin
Carrie Lofty said on 05.21.08 at 02:48 AM
My English husband was 51% Brazilian. I demand a recount. Me? 90% French. Hmmm….
smartmensab-tch said on 05.21.08 at 03:43 AM
79% Italian. Which for some reason caused me to have a bizarre idea involving tomato sauce.
Now that I think about it, how did the British reproduce before they invented test tube babies? The first IVF was a British baby, wasn’t she? Hmm. Why didn’t I ever think of that before?
alia said on 05.21.08 at 04:30 AM
smartmensab: it was the vikings. and then the scottish and irish. and then the colonies. i’m not sure the british ever had sex with *each other*. (the royal family’s german, so i guess they can continue to have sex with each other.)
i am going to hell now, g’night.
alia said on 05.21.08 at 04:33 AM
ps: Carrie… should we start a club for ppl with british spouses? we can complain about marmite and drink tea…
Mary Lynn said on 05.21.08 at 05:52 AM
55% Italian - Couldn’t figure out how to adjust phallic toy - any help? Wonder what the 45% is?
GrowlyCub said on 05.21.08 at 08:11 AM
I think I finally figured it out. Whatever your percentage of something is, the converse is your amount of Britishness…. so I’m either 46% or 14% British… ehm, sure… lol
Robin said on 05.21.08 at 08:20 AM
89% Swedish in the bedroom, 25% Swedish (and third generation American) in the genes.
And according to the spam word, I’m actually14. Woot!

That’s probably it. I was wondering if the missing percentage was related to the brain dead orgasm activity…
KariBelle said on 05.21.08 at 04:04 PM
54% Swedish. I want to know what the other 46% is.
I am also still giggling over the “bangs per minute” metronome!
Barb Ferrer said on 05.21.08 at 04:14 PM
Thank you, everyone who came over and commented on my blog. I was more than able to double the donation and as I told SB Sarah in the email I sent her, I think Delaney’s parents will be extremely touched to know that the donation came due to the sympathy and generosity of readers, since she was already an avid reader herself. They said at her memorial service that she’d read 45 chapter books for her summer reading program last year. As a seven year old.
Anyhow, thanks so much.
Oh, and I wound up 87% Brazilian. And I LOVED the Passport agent.
Randi said on 05.21.08 at 04:45 PM
I got 70% Congolese. The passport lady was dressed in fruit and dancing around. She’s very hip.
JaneyD said on 05.21.08 at 05:48 PM
I didn’t get ANY cat questions.
I think it’s cause I misinterpreted the “stroked any pets” query in the early rounds to mean something else.
Or I had the correct meaning after all.
They surprised me with the Swedish thing.
I loved the quiz lady; she was awesomely deadpan!
oakling said on 05.21.08 at 07:26 PM
I love the idea of donating money for each comment. I’m going to try that myself!
xat said on 05.21.08 at 08:24 PM
86% Russian. Heavens, the Guy will be pleased. He’s always had a fascination with Russian women…

shaunee said on 05.21.08 at 10:12 PM
Did anyone else get the question, “has your genitalia ever been spontaneously applauded?”
When I tried to click the “yes” button, it kept running away from my pointer and the “no” button kept getting bigger and bigger. In the end I had to click “no” to get it to quit blinking so ominously.
(Never mind that no was the correct answer. Still, it’s embarrassing to have a website be so intuitive.)
Mary Lynn said on 05.21.08 at 10:58 PM
LOL!!! I totally missed the “bangs per minute” metronome! Comments are the true prize here.
Bronwyn Jameson said on 05.22.08 at 04:08 AM
Have now done the test, oh, at least six times and every time through at least one new/different question and a different result. My favourite: the role-play choices. Perhaps choosing Steptoe and Son would give the British result? Or if I’d chosen “a man in socks” for the filming-sex-with question. Someone at the ad agency had a lot of fun with this.
