How stereotypically misanthropic are you?

You probably already know how you feel about other people--whether they're loved ones or strangers--or if a phrase like "loved ones" even scans for you--but how do you rank up against others? Do you admire Scooge and Oscar the Grouch? Do you believe that all people are essentially good and that only the stresses of modern living have corrupted them?

This quiz is a highly unscientific smattering of opinions to quantify your "works and plays well with others" factor, no matter who you be, from hippie to hater. Enjoy
