How Indie Are You? (Sponsored by CNN.com)

You got 5 out of 10 correct on your first attempt.
Moderately down: You can certainly hang, but can you hang with the best of them? Not quite yet. Keep doing what you're doing, though, and soon you'll be quoting obscure movie and song lyrics in everyday life like it's going out of style.
Take the quiz now!

You got 9 out of 10 correct on your first attempt.
Too cool for school: You are a certifiable indie god. You know which bands are breaking up before the rest of us simpletons have to read about it in Filter or on Pitchfork.

I was held back by not caring about fashion, by not worshipping the ground that Moz walks on, and by liking the beach rather than Austin.

5 - but that's because I guessed well on a couple and I picked some of the answers I knew they were looking for. I probably should have really scored a 2.

My, my…you two are very defensive about not being considered cool by CNN.
Don't worry; the low rankings would exclude you two from exclusive pre-sales, unannounced soft-sales, or the ability to belittle each and everyone new member that has the courage to post here :D

exactly. i got 1 out of 10 and that was the fucking Talib Kweli/Mos Def question!
well, i suppose if CNN tells me i'm not indie, then i can hang with that. :)
i stopped answering the questions at the fourth.
the movie question i haven't seen any of those movies. the arrested development question, i don't watch that kind of television really so i don't c are about that show at all. the only answer that seemed to disregard the show completely also involved a comment about wrestling, which i think is totally worthless. i knew the wizard/rilo kiley chick thing.
i doubt i fit the classification of 'indie' anyway, but that poll was just dumb. i don't stive to be any sort of classification whatsoever.

just as i suspected - as proven by the results obtained on CNN.com (© 2006 Cable News Network LP, LLLP. A Time Warner Company. All Rights Reserved), this board utterly lacks Indie Cred�.
please turn in all your Yo La Tengo hoddies, they will be replaced with polo shirts.
