Yeah, the Switchblade Kittens rule! :)
5.B. You hated the Mary Sue Litmus Test.
Blergh.
6. You remember the launching of FictionAlley, Sugar Quill, Gryffindor Tower, and/or HP4GU.
What about two out of four? I was part of FA's launch and remember GT being announced, but I was a few months late for SQ and over a year late for HP4GU.
9. You're still insisting that the Order of the Phoenix is an award, not the name of a defense team.
It's not? ;) (Is this one my fault, because of PS? Or did others do this too?)
10. You remember when ff.n was THE fanfic site to post on!
Getting in the waaaayback machine now...
11. You believe that if Draco were only hexed into a rat, he would become so loveable.
Well, I didn't believe it, but I know which fic this refers to. ;)
12. You know that Polyjuice Potion testing in class can only lead to body - and, in some cases, species - switching gone awry.
Well, I never bought this idea either, but I know many who did.
16. You're a proud member of PISA.
Not sure what this is. What about PINE? (Percy Is Not Evil!)
17. Nimbus 2003 feels like yesterday.
Yup.
18. Sirius having a sister is the coolest idea ever.
Even though your friends still rant about said sisters.Well, I don't know about "coolest idea ever", but what about TWO sisters (which I gave him). Pretty cool, anyway?
20. You've grown three inches and a gray hair since you read your first fanfic.
Don't get me started... And it's a lot more gray hairs than ONE.
21. You've shrunk three inches and lost a gray hair since you read your first fanfic.
Ha! No, I'm not getting shorter yet. I'm short enough already.
22. You bought Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them and Quidditch Through the Ages when they were first released.
Sure did. In hardback, in a boxed set. :)
23. You know what "the wand order error" means. Or at least think you do.
I certainly do know! And I liked the original, incorrect version better, too.
24. You remember when Sirius took Harry into his (wonderful) home to live.
You mean the ruined castle on Loch Ascog that I gave the Blacks or something else?
25. You still tell people, "I can't wait for book five!"
Well, I don't tell anyone that anymore, but I remember it vividly. :D
So I've got 12.5 or so, about half. Not too bad. Guess I get to hang around fandom a little longer. ;)

For the sites, two out of four works. Heck, I was only vaguely aware of any of them until after they'd been launched, and I only really went to them regularly in 2002. (I was a ff.n person until that point.)
