The season of hot apple cider, crunchy leaves and general autumnal beauty is upon us. When you head to the local farm to get your pies and pumpkins, don’t forget to pick up an ugly gourd to decorate your tabletop. Just as everyone has that one spirit animal, everyone also has that one spirit ugly gourd too. So take this quiz to figure out if you’re warty, stripey, or just plain basic (like the rest of these fall foods).

The Warty Gourd
The warty gourd is the one who is always saying "meh." You're the kinda person who gets to the party, sits on the couch and counts the seconds until it's over. Though you may not always be an optimist, your friends love you for your "glass half empty" outlook and inevitable sarcastic commentary.

The Squid Gourd
The weirdo of the bunch, the squid gourd doesn't take life too seriously. You love to go out, dance like an idiot and make people laugh. You're never boring, just look at the shape of you. How many people can say they're a gourd shaped like a sea creature?
The answer is:

The long gourd is the big man on campus. You're confident, if not cocky. You probably get a lot of guys/babes, and everyone knows you're a pretty big deal. People say that size doesn't matter, but obviously they haven't met you, because it ain't easy being the long gourd.
The answer is:

The Stripey Gourd
The stripey gourd is all about order and organization. You don't mess around in life, and you go out there and get what you want. The stripey gourd has their s**t together, and is guaranteed to be the leader of any situation.
The answer is:

The Basic Gourd
The basic gourd is just what you'd expect: basic. You probably love pumpkin spice lattes, jamming to top 40 radio stations, and taking selfies till your thumbs fall off. Hey, every friend group needs someone basic to make fun of while secretly also loving. In this day and age basic is in, so if you've got it, flaunt it.
