worse: "We should invade their countries, kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity." Ann Coulter

Old Kenny: Trident(TM) Tripical Twist(R) with Zytol(PP) to "Clean & Protect Teeth"(C)
Better: Brands that don't patronize their consumer base by adding rancid flavour lines, spouting redundant catchphrases, or listing 'scientific-sounding' ingredients in an effort to rope more stupid people in. (I mean, really, who says, "Well, I *WAS* gonna get Dentyne, but Trident "Cleans and Protects Teeth" with the whitening power of Zytol, Chlorophyl, and Carnuba Gum.")
Worse: People who actually do say, "Well, I *WAS* gonna get Dentyne, but..."

It's different and in a way can solve the situation.
It's usually a debate 'ninja or pirate', but they say that there are more than just this spectrum to types of people, there are also 'elves and dwarves'. The thinkers and the doers.
Ninja - Elegant.
Pirate - Robust.
Elf - Thinker.
Dwarf - Doer.
Now it goes on to say that all of these are necessary to make a person, so Ninja is not necessarily better than Pirate when put in this context, it is a way of finding what balance of all the necessary qualities you currently have.
It can be hard to determine, and some days you will appear at a different area on the graph than others, different people would place you differently, so on. But my idea is that you take numbers from 0-10 for all the four catagories, from either yourself or other people then what you do is.
Ninja 7 - Pirate 4
Elf 8 - Dwarf 6
Ignore the whole 'opposite' ends of the spectrum, you're just dealing with Elf then Dwarf, etc. meaning that you can have high numbers in both if that's how people class you (bearing in mind that if you are a high ranking Ninja people may not realise this as you're a 'grey man' and may rank you lower than your true score).
Subtract the lesser number from the greater one, giving the above example:
Ninja - 3
Elf - 2
At this moment it looks doubtful, 'What, but I'm an Elf 8, this says I'm an Elf 2.' Ah, but you're wrong, because you're a moron. You may be Elf 2 but this is a way of showing Dwarf 6 counteracting Elf 8. It's a way of placing you on the graph, with the numbers alone it looks wrong, but on the graph it positions you.
Even if this is not a good way of placing you it looks downright funky. Instead of 0-10 you might want to try it with 0-5, 0-20, so on. Whatever you think looks funkier.

Here, I'll do it with sock puppets:
[Condescending]
'Mr. Ninja and Mr. Pirate are sock puppets. Without both the socks your feet are cold, you need them both. The same goes for Elves and Dwarves. Now let's pretend you have your two feet and it's very chilly, you need to find which socks fit you best. How much do you need Mr. Ninja, Mr. Pirate, Mr. Elf and Mr. Dwarf? Count out of 10 for each and then take away the sock with the lowest number.
Mr. Ninja - 5
Mr. Pirate - 4
That gives you Mr. Ninja 1. Do the same for Mr. Elf and Mr. Dwarf. This way you can work out which sock is best for you and have warm footsies.
Do-You-Understand-me?

"I swear it," said the other mother. "I swear it on my own mother's grave."
"Does she have a grave?" asked Coraline.
"Oh yes," said the other mother. "I put her in there myself. And when I found her trying to crawl out, I put her back."
