This planet ain't big enough for me

I need 6.3 of them. Woohoo! I rule. Get out of my way, puny humans! (Was that the proper reaction to this quiz? Well, it feels proper to me -- and everyone knows that if it's based on feelings, then it is proper.)

39! Woo Hoo!

14.

But I need 3 1/2 planets to support the entire world with a lifestyle comparable to mine.

Which is basically, bullshit.

Another watermelon scare campaign.

Got you beat, Andrea...7.2. :)

But did you look at Lileks? He noted that the results change depending on what country you're from.

No bias here, move along...

7.7! probably because I have a bloody long commute to work each day. The shelter questions are a bit weird, though. Are they asking how many people per unit, or in the apartment building overall?

16 and 3.6 planets, here!

5.8 planets? That's it??? That's all I consume????

Dammit, I gotta get on the stick - ideally one carved from a rain-forest harvested redwood.

9.6 planets. Best fire up the space colonization ships and get to terraformin', because I don't plan to scale back.

{{{Awe}}}

I'm going to have to trade my Echo in for a Ford Explorer.

Man, everybody beat me. I only got two planets. I guess I'm going to have to eat more meat and buy a Ford Expedition. I guess being a poor graduate student is good for the environment (at least compared to you guys.)

I consume 7.8 planets.

<urp!>

Mmmm. Crunchy.

Better clarify 39 units, 8.8 planets. Kerry, you got me beat, so I'm gonna buy an SUV and start feeding red meat to stray dogs.

Heh. I drive a Saturn. I just rack up a ton of miles to make up for that good gas mileage.

Posted by: Kerry at April 23, 2003 at 05:48 PM

[sigh] Shame on me! I only need 2.5 plaents.

Weenies. I need a dozen planets just to park all my cars.

I got all the way up to 25-ish with true answers (I just had to say I lived in the States, not Costa Rica). Yay! Go me! Bow down before me, pitiful non-environment-despoiling worms!

6.3 planets, eh?

So you are the one using up all of my oxygen. I guess I'm going to have to take care of all of you squatters and freeloaders. You all have to leave. Now.

(Just kidding.)

Posted by: Mike Orris at April 24, 2003 at 11:37 PM

You're all a bunch of damned tree huggers. I'd need 18.4 planets to support everyone in my lifestyle. But then who'd cook the freedom fries?
