How can this claim my humor is light, when I scored 99% in dark? [baffled shrug]

the Ham (34% dark, 43% spontaneous, 27% vulgar)

your humor style: CLEAN | SPONTANEOUS | LIGHT Your style's mostly goofy, innocent and feel-good. Perfect for parties and for the dads who chaperone them. You can actually get away with corny jokes, and I bet your sense of humor is a guilty pleasure for your friends. People of your type are often the most approachable and popular people in their circle. Your simple & silly good-naturedness is immediately recognizable, and it sets you apart in this sarcastic world. PEOPLE LIKE YOU: Will Ferrell - Will Smith

My test tracked 3 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender: You scored higher than 99% on dark You scored higher than 99% on spontaneous You scored higher than 99% on vulgar

First off, the percentages at the bottom look wonky. At a guess, you were the first person of your age and gender to take the test; I can see how that would give such results.

Second, since you scored below 50% on Dark, Spontaneous, and Vulgar (numbers at the top), I'd expect you to be placed in the Light/Complex/Clean octant, which is labelled "Prankster". Something's definitely screwy here.

I will of course defer to your professional expertise. ;)

Aha! The toraks teases back. Touchee, madame!

Actually, like many such graphs, it's accurate within limits, but incomplete. I think people are different types at different times. The ones I'm likeliest to be found doing are prankster, [would-be]wit, and ham, but, depending on the circumstances, may well be found doing any of the others. It would be helpful if they included descriptions and examples of all the types.

Which ones are you likeliest to be doing?
