But…em dash or en dash? WHAT IS THE ANSWER????
You Are a Dash |
You have a ton of interests. While some of them are a bit offbeat, they all tie together well. You friends rely on you to bring novelty and excitement to their lives. (And while you’re the most interesting person they know, they can’t help feeling like they don’t know you well.) You excel in: Anything to do with money You get along best with: the Exclamation Point |

Oooh, not tremendously dignified, but lots of pun potential.

Ditto.
I mean, I am also a colon–not a “ditto” mark.
Consider the quiz stolen.

You, a dittohead? That would have been amusing.

I’m a question mark, which includes this bit:
“You excel in: Higher education”
I guess is this is spot-on, assuming that by “excel” they mean “have been deeply mired in pursuits of higher education for close to a decade with no end in sight.”
I’m also supposed ot get along best with the comma. Which suits me just fine. I certainly overuse them in my writing.

I’m a colon, which explains why people think I’m full of s**t

On the advice of counsel I have no comment at this time, except to remark that many waitstaff around town have always thought of me as a Dash.

I’m a question mark, huh? What’s that all about??

I’m a dash as well… This is hilarious: classifying people as punctuation marks!

I’m a colon too, which I find oddly depressing.

Well, it’s not the most dignified association in the world, but what choice do you have? YOu could have been a period, and THEN the jokes would be truly tedious.
