Really interesting the way a person's answers to 7 fairly generic yes-or-no questions shows how unique their particular situation is. My personal combination is shared by less than 0.1% of all US adults.

Not too surprising. There are 128 unique combinations of answers. So theoretically most everyone should be under 1%.
Pretty sure the max score is 5.29%. It's possible the way the answers are correlated, there can be a combination where an answer puts you in the minority on that question but still increases the number of people that have the same combination of answers, and I haven't done all the combinations. But that's answering in the majority everytime and choosing no certain about god on the one that's 50/50. Answering that you are certain that god exists drops it down to 3% and change, presumably because that is less likely an answer for somebody that does not have a gun and does not think same sex relationships is rarer.

and/or that similar people cluster in similar places.
I would assume the solid majority of people here have a bachelors degree, have a gun in their home, and have two parents from the US. Probably can add having children to that and still keep a majority, maybe a solid majority. So you're really talking about 4 or 3 questions that are going to differentiate most of us.

The above $110k household income is probably pretty split on this board? $110k in income is still an upper level salary, even for college educated people, but with two working adults and at least one of them college educated, I would assume somewhere in the 40-50% of married people on here have a household income of above $110k?

After that, it's basically just a handful of you godless, homosexual promoting heathens versus the rest of us.**

I passed the weirdness test to enroll in EE at State, so there's that. I scored 0.845%

ETA: normal is an agreed upon reality. we just hang out with people who are weird in the ways we appreciate

Is this one true, a solid majority?

My Googling tells me that 55% of Mississippians own a gun, with it dropping to 40-45% when you only look at college educated Mississippians. This board is not necessarily representative of all college educated Mississippians, but I'd be surprised if we're that different.
