Why does this exist?
No grand thesis. No years of research. I just really wanted to know what kind of watermelon eater you are. Twenty honest questions about how you actually eat watermelon. That’s the whole idea.
What it is, and what it isn’t
It is
- A 20-question quiz about how you eat watermelon.
- Free to take, as often as you like. No sign-up needed.
- A joke that takes itself just seriously enough.
It isn’t
- A psychological assessment. There is zero science here.
- Affiliated with the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator or its owners.
- A way to collect your data. Your quiz answers never identify you.
Three rules it is built on
So the joke never costs you anything.
- Private by default
- Accounts are optional and there are no analytics or ads. Quiz answers are saved anonymously, and you can delete yours from the results page.
- Open source
- Every line is public on GitHub, from the twenty statements to the scoring that turns them into a type.
- Free, no ads
- No paywall, no premium tier, no ads. It costs nothing to take and nothing to share.
Under the rind
What the site is built with.
- Next.js
- The site, its pages and the small API behind the quiz.
- Three.js
- The 3D watermelon on the home page, via React Three Fiber.
- Neon Postgres
- Anonymous results, and the live counts built from them.
- Vercel
- Hosting.
