The Realist Your feet stay planted even when everyone else floats dreamily by. You see the world as it is, warts and wonders alike, and make practical choices that keep wheels turning. Calm in turbulence, you’re the friend who remembers umbrellas and chargers. While some chase the grand vision, you secure the foundation so dreams can stand. Sensible does not mean dull — it means reliably ready for whatever comes next.
I really don't know or care what this says about me, but for virtually all of these I needed a "none of the above" option.
When doing quizzes I sometimes find none of the answers fit, but with this one that was true of just about every question. Favorite bookstore section - not a single fiction category? Historical fiction, science fiction, fantasy, romance, anything that actually has a story? What to pack on vacation? I literally pack only 2 things, clothes and toiletries. Neither is listed. Kitchen gadget? How about something normal, like a toaster or air fryer? I would never use any of the things shown.
