Hippocrates thought that there were four persononality types:

1. Melancholic
2. Phlegmatic
3. Sanguine
4. Chloric

So, my question is...
which one are you?

One that doesn't know what any of those big words mean.

Melancholic = Sad/Depressed
Phlegmatic = calm/unemotional
Sanguine = Cheerfully confident; optimistic.
Chloric = irritating

Err, those are probally wrong tho

I'm irritating and sad - so wtf does that make me?
Posted by Foghorn Leghorn, 11:43, 26th June 2003:
 
Or perhaps I am a bit of Phlegmatic. Defo not Melancholic...

Rosie, it makes you irritating and sad. (Chloric/Melancholic)
