Hypnoid Test

[Cast No Shadow]

I stumbled across it and found it to be quite interesting.
I'm not sure I believe what it says, but here's it's observations about my personality:

You are in a perpetual quest to find the new, the exciting. Emotionally volatile, you are known for sudden changes of opinion, of appreciation, and behavior. Following rules and established methods is difficult for you and the difficulties of higher education are usually quite daunting. Knowledge is best gained through an intimate association with the matter at hand. Usually driven by attitudes and desires of the group, you are talented in an established field of endeavor. Emotions come and go without a strong understanding of their causes. They are unexpected guests in an otherwise placid landscape. You live by your own codes of conduct, which can be noble or terrible depending on the individual. Authority is meaningless to you. You hate to be predictable, at all costs. Rarely verbally effusive, you can at times feel as if your feelings are too deep for words. You are very observant, but rarely express these observations to others.

What did you get?

[NY State of Mind]

You have a poetic sensibility and an ability to see beyond the day to day. You often seem to be living in a higher realm, or to be not-of-this-earth. Occasionally you imagine interior lives for friends and associates that are near-complete fabrications based on your fears or hopes for the future. You are often not aware of your own feelings. You have a strong sense of right and wrong, and because of this are often disappointed. Despite what can sometimes be a destructive inward-turning anger, you are very gentle. You are sometimes a bit out of touch with the ebb and flow of modern life. If your behavior is out of synch with your moral values, a severe psychic disturbance can result. Because connectivity is so important to you, you can become quiet and sulky if you feel that others around do not understand your point of view.

Yeah idk about all of that....its actually difficult to do cause all the flashing is annoying 😛 but I suffered and tried to do it anyways

What a crazy weird test!!!! The really weird part is what it said was kinda right on. 😱

Quiet and very self-assured, you tend to keep your own council. Pragmatic and practical to a fault, you are not one to worry about the finer points of philosophical discourse. In fact, because you are very much an individualist, you often finds yourself at odds with the established truth or the wishes of the majority. You will often earn the wrath of an employer by taking upon yourself decisions which are rightly those of your manager. You are not one to take credit unless it is deserved. Similarly however, you will also not happily give credit where it is not due. In a romantic relationship you can be very frustrating. While you do care deeply and sincerely, and are willing to work at a relationship, your confidence in your own abilities can on occasion make it difficult to see the world from a partner’s point of view. Quiet and stoic at times, you can drive a more emotional individual completely up the wall. You can become overstressed and fatigued without knowing it. Taking time to rest between bouts of hard work can help to prevent a breakdown later on.

This couldn't be more inaccurate if it tried.

That was one of the most random thing I've seen in a long time.

Not sure how my brain works but it sure isn't compatible with that test.
How on earth am I supposed to answer the question - One single triangle or three small triangles, Where is the sin?
It's triangles, I seriously can't see the connection to sin. There's no way I can answer that without just picking one randomly.

I did however answer all question, basically by just picking one by random and ended up with a diagnosis that was so wrong it was laughable.
- Always happy in a crowd.
- ...and are known as a great storyteller and natural actor.
- Naturally charming, you are quick to win new friends.

Yeah, sure that sound exactly like me... 🙄

Your power comes from an ability to sense how things might be and to proclaim this possibility with a great force and willingness to act. You have a tendency to be romantic, and can be an idealist. This sense of how the world can be is often expressed with self-deprecatory humor. Because of your need to address the immediacy of the moment, you may not think things through to their logical end, relying instead on a feeling for how a situation SHOULD end. You need to be liked and appreciated by others, although your attention often wanders. Sometimes you neglect old friends in favor of a new or exciting acquaintance. You have a real difficulty being alone. Often you will seem to know how to handle a situation without exactly knowing HOW you know this. Your thoughts are often shallow. While in the excitement of the moment you can obsess about a task at hand. If it should become rote and unexciting, however, it can be dropped just as quickly.

The Barnum Effect is the observation that individuals will give high accuracy ratings to descriptions of their personality that supposedly are tailored specifically for them, but are in fact vague and general enough to apply to a wide range of people. This effect can provide a partial explanation for the widespread acceptance of some beliefs and practices, such as astrology, fortune telling, and some types of personality tests.

[JCoatsworth]

I don't get this. What exactly do those triangles and circles have to do with my personality? 😕
I didn't quite know what to do, so I always chose the cooler figure 😀

 

[Skytteflickan88]

First I was confused, then bore, so I just clicked at stuff after a while. I mean, how is a circle angry? Wtf.

Lmao... Weird test. I got this:

You are in a perpetual quest to find the new, the exciting. Emotionally volatile, you are known for sudden changes of opinion, of appreciation, and behavior. Following rules and established methods is difficult for you and the difficulties of higher education are usually quite daunting. Knowledge is best gained through an intimate association with the matter at hand. Usually driven by attitudes and desires of the group, you are talented in an established field of endeavor.

Like several others here, I got this:

You have a poetic sensibility and an ability to see beyond the day to day. You often seem to be living in a higher realm, or to be not-of-this-earth. Occasionally you imagine interior lives for friends and associates that are near-complete fabrications based on your fears or hopes for the future. You are often not aware of your own feelings. You have a strong sense of right and wrong, and because of this are often disappointed. Despite what can sometimes be a destructive inward-turning anger, you are very gentle. You are sometimes a bit out of touch with the ebb and flow of modern life. If your behavior is out of synch with your moral values, a severe psychic disturbance can result. Because connectivity is so important to you, you can become quiet and sulky if you feel that others around do not understand your point of view.

Then I took it a second time and got this:

Your power comes from an ability to sense how things might be and to proclaim this possibility with a great force and willingness to act. You have a tendency to be romantic, and can be an idealist. This sense of how the world can be is often expressed with self-deprecatory humor. Because of your need to address the immediacy of the moment, you may not think things through to their logical end, relying instead on a feeling for how a situation SHOULD end. You need to be liked and appreciated by others, although your attention often wanders. Sometimes you neglect old friends in favor of a new or exciting acquaintance.

While in the excitement of the moment you can obsess about a task at hand. If it should become rote and unexciting, however, it can be dropped just as quickly.


Generally, tests like this have about 3 or 4 possible "answers" that come up randomly or are actually only associated with the answer to a single question, with all of the other questions as total red herrings. All of the answers are somewhat vague and always complementary, so don't expect to find out that you're a potential murderer or wife beater. Take the same test half a dozen times, answer all of the questions in exactly way, and you will get at least 4 different answers.

Just don't take the offer for further testing, or you might find out that you've bought into a time share condo in Lubbock, Texas, and a lifetime subscription to "Girls Gone Wild."

That was sooo weird! lol

Quiet and very self-assured, you tend to keep your own council. Pragmatic and practical to a fault, you are not one to worry about the finer points of philosophical discourse.

I got this answer:

Though quiet on the outside, you are often the hidden hero; someone who rushes in when needed and then after the emergency is over fades back into the woodwork. Because of this sense of duty and honor, you can also on occasion be rigid in your viewpoint and unyielding in the face of other ways of thinking. Usually cynical and rarely trusting of others, you maintain a small set of intimate friends. These bonds are stronger than most. You are always grounded in the present moment. Your close bonds can also lead to clique-ishness and a tendency to gossip about those who are deemed less worthy. You are an integrative thinker, collecting data from a wide range of sources and applying it to your worldview. You can become overly task-oriented. In stressful situations you often withdraw from the world to seek peace in contemplation. You often seem cold and withdrawn. Often you will withdraw rather than verbalize your discontent.

which doesn't sound too much like me!

 

[SlayerFest]

I really liked taking this test but...

Everything about this, except for the last couple of sentences, is wrong. I am not obsessed with perfection...I kind of hate it. I mean, I have my own idea of it. Don't we all? My world is far from black and white haha I have said many times on here that I hate when people pretend that the world is that way! My world is very, very colorful 😉. I'm not really the most logical person. I mean, I try to be realistic, but I won't reject something simply because it's illogical. I would be the most annoying movie critic if that were true...and I would probably hate most of my favorite movies haha. I don't do well in foreign language classes, (I love English, but I don't really believe that, that counts) computer programming sounds boring as hell, and I loathe math. Manipulating a system...you mean, like the government 😀? Heh....and those who speak in a "sloppy" manner? Like bad grammar? Sure, it occasionally annoys me, but it's not that big of deal. I won't give them the stink eye or anything haha. I hate puzzles, I do love to read though. Those last two sentences were kind of true. Well, the last four sentences of this entire diagnosis. I am way too involved with thought, and I'm quite lazy. I doubt I'll ever have a "normal" life because "normal" sucks. If living in a cabin in the woods with a stuffed kitten named Francis Egerton is deemed abnormal...then I am perfectly content with being it. Hmph.

 

[WWGD]

Always happy in a crowd, you love to converse, to relate, and above all to have fun. You tend to think in a more holistic manner than many others. Like a crow you are attracted to shiny objects, new ideas, playful exciting colors and the thrill of a new personal relationship. You love to talk or gossip. You are highly invested in the reality of day-to-day life. Practicality is far more important than issues of honor or allegiance. You are a creature of the here and now. You are a natural multi-tasker, often switching mid-thought from one duty to another. You have a flair for presenting your personality in your work, and are known as a great storyteller and natural actor. You are very skilled at taking in a barrage of information and distilling what is most important from it. Naturally charming, you are quick to win new friends. Over stimulation is a danger.

 

[Ripper666]

With some parts I agree, with others I totally disagree... 😀

You reach out to the world and pull in experiences of all forms and kinds. Spontaneous, immediate and active, you have a natural tendency to win, whether this is in the business world or on the freeway. In the right context this can be a positive encouragement to those around you. In the wrong context it can lead to a pathetic display of ego and misplaced pride. You are always on the prowl for clues as to how to win. Usually this behavior is unconscious or playful but the sense of play can rapidly disappear if you are found to be losing in the aforementioned contest. Only those who don't compete are met with derision. You love to be the center of attention. The moment at hand is always of prime concern. Worries about the future or the past, or abstract discussions of philosophical matters are something for others to concern themselves with. Emotions are fleeting and often used as tactics.
