SCORE!! (The Three-Variable Funny Test)
the Wit
(57% dark, 26% spontaneous, 15% vulgar) your humor style:
CLEAN | COMPLEX | DARK
You like things edgy, subtle, and smart. I guess that means you're probably an intellectual, but don't take that to mean pretentious. You realize 'dumb' can be witty--after all isn't that the Simpsons' philosophy?--but rudeness for its own sake, 'gross-out' humor and most other things found in a fraternity leave you totally flat.
I guess you just have a more cerebral approach than most. You have the perfect mindset for a joke writer or staff writer.
Your sense of humor takes the most thought to appreciate, but it's also the best, in my opinion.
You probably loved the Office. If you don't know what I'm talking about, check it out here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/comedy/theoffice/.

You'll crack on anything, and you're often witty, even caustic, about it.
Therefore, your sense of humor is polarizing. You're transgressive, and you've got a seriously sharp 'edge'--maybe too much for some folks. If they get you, people think you're one of the funniest (and smartest) people in the world. If they don't, they think you're an ass. Whatever, right? While some might question your judgement, your comic intellect is unquestionably respected.

humor style:
CLEAN | COMPLEX | LIGHT
Your humor has an intellectual, even conceptual slant to it. You're not pretentious, but you're not into what some would call 'low humor' either. You'll laugh at a good dirty joke, but you definitely prefer something clever to something moist.
You probably like well-thought-out pranks and/or spoofs and it's highly likely you've tried one of these things yourself. In a lot of ways, yours is the most entertaining type of humor because it's smart without being mean-spirited.

Thanks for the comments.
Maybe you can help me in sorting this out. You mentioned that the vocation is the outward expression of the "what" and becomes centralized. For this, I have two points: The first one is I believe we do this (isolate one gift and only use that one gift) because of our economic system. In teh beginning of "Wealth of Nations", Adam Smith is very clear of this and that is the main start to capitalism. The second is would you say the vocation is apart of the "what" question or the "who"? My problem is dileating (sp?) between the two questions. Where does one begin and the other end and vice versa?

"Epiphanies of the who." I like that statement.
Yes, I would agree with you and your description of the "what" and the "who". What I am pondering now is the place in which the "what" changes into the "who" and vice versa. Is there a point at all? I find that in my doing or the "who" I easily forget the "what" and I think it goes back to my understanding of where both end and begin.
I like your thinking...
