You can be fierce and unyielding, but you can also always be counted upon to say what's what. Nobody messes with you. 80 to 115 points You have definite auntie and uncle tendencies and are happy to embrace them. You can easily level up with little effort - see some A answers for some useful tips. 35 to 75 points You have your auntie and uncle moments but have, perhaps deliberately, kept some of your impulses in check. If your response is just a shrug, then maybe that just isn't your scene. 0 to 30 points You are an un-tie or non-cle. You could possibly be a laidback tai-tai or towkay, but that can be confirmed with another quiz. (Meaning to say, high SES or not).
