Surprise! Study Shows Texans Are Extraverted
A new study finds that certain characteristics cluster in certain geographic spots. Texans are extraverted,  a tad disagreeable, mostly conscientious, only somewhat neurotic, and fairly open to new ideas — if the research is to be believed. However, a study that concludes that Maine residents are also extraverted might be seen to raise more questions than it answers. And there’s this disquietening aside: “state-level extraversion is positively correlated with robbery and murder rates.”
Don’t you mean “extrOverted?”
As a native New Yorker I’ll say that the neurotic thing seems right on. At least I think so. I mean, is it okay for me to thing so? Are you still reading my comment?
No, we Texans just have extra verts.
You know, I know someone who could work as your proofreader. IJS.
Old news. This was originally published in the Wall Street Journal in Sept 2008. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB122211987961064719.html#articleTabs%3Dinteractive.
I think the DMN published it, too.
As accurate and useful as horoscopes….
So, Texans are Aries, is what you’re saying here. Aries with poor comprehension of Latin prefixes.
Wick means a new blog post, about an old study. Prolly did in his extratime while waiting for Dubya to throw the pitch the other day. TimmyTyper likely edited it.
