What Flavor Kit Kat Are You?

You Are a Dark Chocolate Kit Kat

You are a passionate and quick-tempered person. You know what you love, and you know what you hate.

You are very competitive and even a bit ruthless when you need to be. You have what it takes to get ahead.

You are a daredevil that loves to take risks. You pride yourself on your courageousness, and you love to test your own limits.


You have a real flair for adventure - and it starts with being impulsive. You do what you feel like, and you often feel like flying solo.



Not to wax philosophic about candy, but these results are spot-on...well, maybe I'm flattering myself a little bit...although I do like the regular milk chocolate ones, as well. Dark chocolate is supposed to be better for you, I've read.

They're just about my favorite candy bar. I don't think I ate them much until I saw Richard Simmons being interviewed and he was asked how to deal with chocolate cravings. He said he liked Kit Kats because he could open one up and eat just one segment and satisfy his craving. I was thinking "Yeah, right. Don't think I could stop at one little piece." and he added that he sometimes ate the whole thing. He went on to say that they were fairly low in fat compared to other candy bars.

These days I'm not so much worried about the fat than I am the grams of sugar, but it doesn't seem to affect my glucose levels as much as other sweets and doesn't even come close to what rice or pasta does to my blood sugar.

Cat Confiscates Card

I don't think the cat stole it because she wanted it; no, I think the cat went and buried it in her litter box.

My Generation - The Who

Today in 1967, The Who appeared on The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour.

The drummer, Keith Moon, had loaded his drum kit with some explosives, intending to end the song with a literal bang and cement the band's reputation as outrageous counter-culture icons, but instead angered thousands of American parents and left Moon with shrapnel wounds from a broken cymbal and Pete Townsend with permanent hearing damage.

Great band, but yeah, you very nearly DID "die before you got old".
