Poll: Wussy or Sissy what am I?

Okay so I've been called a Wussy by 600DA because I train to race and judge whether or not that training has been sucessful on my race results.

DreamTheater has called me a Sissy because I ride rollers.

Now I'm not completely sure what the difference is and I'm not sure you can actually be both simultaneously. I need to know so I can fix my sig to show the proper state of my wuss-sissyness.

You're a wussy because you listen to The Smiths.

You need to balance things w/ a dose of Motorhead. It's all about balance, ying & yang and all that good stuff.

Being swissy would give you an excuse to buy this. It's Swiss, so close enough.

I have to be careful not to surf BF when my chem class is taking an exam...once or twice i've laughed hard and the wonder what the !bleep! is going on, so I stopped.

More than a few times I've spilled my morning cafeinated beverage on the keyboard from laughing so hard at something...

Is 600DA a real guy? I don't think I've actually seen him anywhere...he's sort of like snuffaluffagus on sesame street where everyone talks about him but no one ever sees him.

Only a putz would ask such a question.

I'm voting "wussy" just because of the history.

Swussy? The chemical equation would look like this (Snick may need to correct me though):

Sy4 + Wy + Py3 - EPO + o2 = (Common name) Austin Monkey Boy?
