Topic starter
 

Do not read the spoiler text until after the rest.

1) Name your favorite color, and give 3 adjectives which describe what you like about it.

2) Name your favorite animal, and give another 3 adjectives which describe what you like about it.

3) Imagine your favorite place (home, in bed, anything works) and give 3 more positive adjectives.

Then click here:

So... how close is it to what you actually think?

Black - Dark, dismal, slightly depressing

Fox - Cute, sly, agile

Home - Beautiful, friendly, lively

Well, it's probably got the last one pat, but I'm not sure about the first two.

Black; cynical, definite, desolate.

Wolf; proud, loyal, clever.

Record Store; independent, reliable, eclectic.

I'd say the test is pretty accurate, oddly enough.

Blue - calm, relaxing, non-confrontational

Common Housecat - independent, agile, sleek

Bedroom - comfortable, safe, quiet

Interesting. And by interesting I mean disturbing. And by disturbing I mean very interesting.

1) Silver - Stylish, cool, shiny

2) Dog (Rottwieler) - Loyal, lovable, tough

3) Home - Peaceful, relaxing, comforting

Wow. That's pretty accurate.

EDIT: Edited in dog breed for a little extra clarity.

Blue - calm, tranquil, sedate
Dolphin - intelligent, playful, cute
Beach at sunset - thoughtful, romantic, relaxing

Not an unreasonable assessment. We have a lot of blue lovers here; Eiffel 65 is probably to blame.

1) Blue: Nostalgic, (ie. from contexts I've seen it in) soft, (as opposed to bright colours) and... actually now I forget what the 3rd one was. I wasn't thinking about it for very long.

2) Cats: Fierce, independent, and cute.

3) Home: Familiar, comfortable and convenient.

I'm sort of left wondering exactly what psychology this is based on, since it does seem intuitive that we'd like in animals what we at least want to see in ourselves, and that we'd feel about something sentimental like love as we feel about a place we like. The colour one does seem a little disconnected though.

The colour part was probably thrown off by how I didn't give myself much time to think about it, as is clear from me not remembering what the 3rd thing to come to mind was, and the "place" one might have been thrown off by "home" being listed as an example, but then again I doubt I'd think of something I generally find preferable to home anyway.

Not sure how others would think of me as "nostalgic" (I could imagine I might have been thought of as a bit of a softie in high school though) but then again I'm not much of a social person anyway. Which brings me to part 3, in which "familiar" and "convenient" don't seem to apply to love to me, but then again perhaps that might be how I'd feel about love if I were a more social person.

The animal one seems to hit the nail on the head though. I'm not sure if I gave myself enough time on that one either, but it's what came to mind, and many traits I associate with cats are ones I also associate with myself.

Blue: appealing, cool, homely

Tiger: Powerful, beautiful, inspiring

Snowdonia: Quiet, tranquil, scenic

I've never really thought as to why I like these things though, they just resonate with me.

Edit:  As for the spoiler section I have to disagree with all of them, though I'll only go into detail when I remember how what the spoiler tags are... <.<

robobotink, when you posted in this i was hoping you'd choose "mysterious" somewhere in there. cause i dont see you post much but when you post you make it seem familiar, as if everyone already knows you very well   i dont get what it is about you that makes me curious and jump out to read your posts as soon as i see your username in a thread.

 try to post more so i can figure you out.

Teal: smooth, cool, sharp
Owl: nocturnal, wise, majestic
Bowling alley?: relaxed, bustling, cheap

Well, I am quite majestic. And nocturnal.

Kinda had trouble thinking of a favorite place. I go bowling with my friends a lot so I guess I picked Brunswick lol. Love isn't cheap..... probably. (But I am.)

I guess I would say this is pretty accurate. Neat!

Orange: bright, cheerful, loud
Red Panda: cute, quiet, mischievous
The patio at my favorite bar in Dallas: open, unpretentious, relaxed

Seems accurate, but it's difficult for most to notice how they are perceived by others.

That too. I wonder if whatever it is about the "colour" part can work even if you don't know how others perceive you, or if the colour thing can be off despite having a good idea how others perceive you, etc...

And then there's questions like whether or not how well you know what you like about the colour reflects on how well you know how others perceive you, etc... if so I could imagine that one would apply to me, since I'm not entirely sure what exactly I like about blue, and I often notice I'm unsure as to how I'm perceived...

actually stuff like this do tell a lot about your personality i dont know it for sure but i read some time ago that the colors you like or how you color pictures and the such can help psychiatrist study you better.

i think we can agree that its "reasonable" to believe this game can have some truth about it.

internet XD
its a site i went to once about what kind of ways doctors can figure out people's personalities and such.. i dont remember exactly what it was except mentinoning colors. you can try to look it up, it seems like a reasonable method. colors represent moods as well so you can tell stuff like that, but what's the exact science about it .. i dont know but i believe there is.
