Finally Revealed...The Link Between Indie Music And Personality

A couple days back an enlightening article appeared on the CBC that published the findings of a Scottish University's study aimed at unearthing the link between musical taste and personality.

And I have some bad news: indie music fans did not fare well. At all.

Apparently we lack both self-esteem and a steady work ethic.

Now I used the collective pronoun back there because I assumed you're an indie music fan; if you're not, well, according to this study that's for the better. But fortunately, there's a musical genre remedy for anyone ailing from low self-esteem - which I don't think I am, pretty sure anyways - and that is embracing whimsical Jazz since, "Jazz fans tend to be creative and outgoing, with high self-esteem."

As for the poor work ethic, that's irrefutable: a prudent, hard-working person would certainly be reading a novel at this moment (that must be read for Thursday), instead of blogging.

But I can always blame its incompletion on being an indie music fan.
