It's for fun. Yes, it's vibe-coded and intended as a static HTML page. The idea isn't new, but I didn't find any online quizzes that had instant answer feedback and were shareable at the end. Have fun. Enjoy. Have a nice weekend!

Take the quiz - some answers may surprise you.

> It's pure escapism is all it is...I'm not the first one to do it, nor shall I probably be the last. But I think it's really a part of the human condition that you've got to have some fun. You've got to get away from whatever you do to make a living or other parts of life that stress you out. I try to make it at least 50/50 fun to work and so far it's worked out. -- Jimmy Buffett

I don't care that it's vibe coded, but the extremely obviously LLM-authored commentary is a bit grating.

My favorite Jimmy Buffet story - after a gig everyone was hanging out partying, when they realized Jimmy wasn’t there. Someone went to his room to find him, and he was deep in running through financials. Jimmy said “Don’t tell anyone you saw me doing this!” Like it was shameful. What we know as Jimmy Buffet is just a character, he was a businessman.

You mean my comment above? That’s the only human-written thing. As for the commentary in the website - instead of making it a weekend coding project, I chose to spend time with my kids.

Yeah, I meant the commentary in the website. Might have been better to just skip it, or at least use a terser style without quite as many grating LLMisms.
