end o the world quiz

Deceit. "What, I didn't do it, it was that guy
over there!" Lies aren't really your
style, more like creative advice. It's a
personal quality you exhibit above all those
around you of knowing who's going to believe
you, and who won't. You survived the end by
making sure that you were far far away while
the person who you left tied to the chair,
dressed to look like you, got what you
deserved. That takes moxy... I tip my hat to
you.


How would you survive the end of the world?
