Shaken, Not Stirred

You Are a Dirty Martini

You are a fun loving person who may or may not show your wild side. It depends what kind of mood you're in.

You are very tolerant and don't take anything too seriously. You're the first to laugh at an off color joke.

You tend to like drinks, food, and people with flavor. Keep bland and boring far away from you.


You are complex and and a bit enigmatic to those around you. Your confidence can be intimidating at times. 


 



Not for sure how the rest of the results fit me, but I DO like Dirty Martinis, only made with vodka instead of gin. I'm not much of a drinker, but that would be my order at a bar.
