[ February 9th 2001 ]

Organic health food company Meridian recently conducted a survey among 250 people quizzing them on which cartoon character they resembled the most, and were surprised at the diversity of the response, Ananova reports today. Leading the two dimensional field was Homer Simpson, after half the British men interviewed said they looked more like the yellow pint sized superstar than Superman. A quarter of women likened themselves Velma, from the Scooby Doo cartoon series.

Action adventurer Lara Croft also made a guest appearance on the overall cast list, as did bionic Superman, although only a few were daring enough to consider the resemblance. "The survey is all a bit of fun, but it has thrown up some interesting results about the effect today's hectic work and leisure patterns are having on our lifestyles. We are simply no longer happy with our bodies. "What was encouraging however, was the way in which those in their late 20s and early 30s seemed to understand the benefits that could be gained by following a better balanced diet and exercise regime." said Meridian Foods managing director Peter Otto.

Inspired by this poll, we're running our own, and will post the results, anonymously of course, right here on tombraiderchronicles.com. The question, "Which cartoon character do you most resemble" can be answered using the form below. Feel free to include the reasons for your choice, and check back here next week for the results.
