Tally your responses by letter; if you lack consensus, allow a lesser version of yourself to take the test.

Mostly As

You are Chief Justice John G. Roberts. A true romantic, you understand that everyone makes mistakes, especially 1970s Supreme Court Justices. Underneath your tough exterior, you love to squee at videos of kittens and baby corporations.

Mostly Bs

You are Associate Justice Antonin Scalia. A dreamer, you believe a life force animates every man, broomstick, and toadstool, while the constitution is dead as a door nail. You would never eat a pizza with utensils, but suspect some of your friends are probably knife-eaters.

Mostly Cs

You are Associate Justice Anthony M. Kennedy. A free spirit, you know the perfect present to give that special someone: a state tax proposal. You love the simple joy of swinging, but paint a lonely picture sitting in the playground all by yourself.

Mostly Ds

You are Associate Justice Clarence Thomas. You are a trailblazer, in that you literally set ablaze the path behind you, making it impossible for those in your situation to follow. Your rags to riches tale has all the mystique of a David Blaine stunt, and requires a similar dose of ignorance.

Mostly Es

You are Associate Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. A great intellect, you’ve seen many things in your time: The rise of feminism, World War II, the indecision of the platypus. Like a tractor left in neutral on a hill, you are unstoppable.

Mostly Fs

You are Associate Justice Stephen G. Breyer. A philosopher, you understand that there are two sides to every argument, as well as a bunch of poems, sestinas, and multi-volume novels. You aren’t worried you’ll end up a historical footnote, because you don’t believe in footnotes.

Mostly Gs

You are Associate Justice Samuel Anthony Alito, Jr. A man of the people, you are proud to fly the banner of diversity, provided you can ride a float of general indifference across public lands. You are a sports fanatic and love to see your team dress down the opposition.

Mostly Hs

You are Associate Justice Sonia Sotomayor. You’re a humble achiever with an amazing story to tell about a drunk pirate who hires coconuts to work on his ship. Your life story is also pretty interesting.

Mostly Is

You are Associate Justice Elena Kagan. An entertainer, you were among the first to prank a friend with the Amazing Exploding Golf Ball. You’re the most popular kid in school, which means you’re probably never going to get around to re-reading the Federalist Papers.
