I would have taken Bérubé’s Transhumanist test seriously, but when I hit the last option my brain locked up and crashed hard. It took hours to download and restore the backup. Thanks heaps, Michael!
Of course the joke requires you to recognize a generic nerdy white male in the final option. Who is it?

A Discworld fan. I knew it.

By looking at the image properties I was able to discover that the person pictured was Glenn Reynolds. Since I still didn’t know who that was, I Googled him and found out he is InstaPundit. I was vaguely aware of who that was, so I declared my search for answers complete.

Damn you Jethro–I used the same ingenious “properties” method to the same result, but you beat me to publication.

Are you sure the FTB was installed?

Jethro- trust me, you were extremely wise to halt your investigation there. The brain crashes caused by attempting to read Instapundit are even worse than the one suffered by PZ.

Erm, it may not be relevant, but our cat is called HEX ….
(Short for Hexadecimal – because we wonder if she can count to sixteen (mice))

Uh… I clicked on the link, but I didn’t see any test – only a bunch of pictures from films and a picture of some jerk who doesn’t look like he has had a real thought since 1980.
The trick is to store the backup in ethanol – the pickling makes it wellpreserved and ready to put the boot in. (Of course, the later may be awkward at times. : -)

Be’rube’ can do that to a fella.
Say… “Be’rube'”…that’s French. Darn French! Trying to harm us with the Perfesser!

Is Glenn Reynolds also secretly this guy Redo from Start?
