Are you a Lilliputian, Blefuscudian, Brobdingnagian, Houyhnhnm, Yahoo, or other?

Would be more successful, I think, if you created a quiz and linked to it.

Obviously those who don't know Swift are Yahoos by default.

Houyhnhnm, or at least that's the one I think would fit best from what I recall of the various races.
Edit: On rereading, I think I would be floating in the sky as well. Laputan

Which are the ones that live forever and go insane, I forget.
I feel like a Struldbrug today, but I'm usually a Yahoo.

I have an IQ around 180 and I can barely afford food; I think we can safely put me floating in the sky. :p

Man I gotta read those books properly.
I knew the Gulliver in Lilliput story when I was little, as I'm sure many children did, but I really need to read all the books. Such good fantasy.

Yahoo and proud of it!
I'm dirty and filthy and full of fleas!
And the prez is one too.
I'm proud of him.
Thinking takes too long.
Short sentences are best.
Not too many words.
Get me lost.
What?

Yahoo of course.
Yahoo (because I'm human, of course) but also because everyone calls me Yahoo since that's what my name sounds like.

Read the stories, work out which one fits you most accurately.

Sadly, A Voyage To Lilliput is the one part that's known to most people, mostly in abridged form. The rest of the book is perhapse more difficult, but also meatier.

Indeed so.
