Are you Highbrow or Lowbrow? Brilliant or Despicable?

Culture is as variegated as a kaleidoscope, and where you fit in the grand spectrum might just surprise you. Are you someone who can dissect a piece of Renaissance art with the finesse of an art historian, savor an esoteric novel with the relish of a literary critic, or does a high-octane reality TV show marathon get you more excited than a caffeine-fueled shopping spree?

Brilliant or Despicable? These aren’t just far-flung categories tossed around at snooty cocktail parties; they’re quadrants of tastes and preferences that could reveal more about your personality than you think!
