    Sweeeeeeeeeet.

    (edit: Also fairly true)

    I'm the pine tree, and that is pretty accurate.

    Although I've never really written poetry. I prefer writing stories.
    I might give poetry a try though..

    Also, I prefer the term peacekeeper.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,909 ✭✭✭✭Wertz


    Elm....scarily accurate too.

    Have a read of this, the Forer Effect:
    from wikipedia
    In 1948, psychologist B.R. Forer gave a personality test to his students, and then gave them a personality analysis, supposedly based on the test's results. He invited each of them to rate the analysis on a scale of 0 (very poor) to 5 (excellent) as it applied to themselves: the average was 4.26. He then revealed that each student had been given the same analysis:

    "You have a need for other people to like and admire you, and yet you tend to be critical of yourself. While you have some personality weaknesses you are generally able to compensate for them. You have considerable unused capacity that you have not turned to your advantage. Disciplined and self-controlled on the outside, you tend to be worrisome and insecure on the inside. At times you have serious doubts as to whether you have made the right decision or done the right thing. You prefer a certain amount of change and variety and become dissatisfied when hemmed in by restrictions and limitations. You also pride yourself as an independent thinker; and do not accept others' statements without satisfactory proof. But you have found it unwise to be too frank in revealing yourself to others. At times you are extroverted, affable, and sociable, while at other times you are introverted, wary, and reserved. Some of your aspirations tend to be rather unrealistic."

    Forer had assembled this text from horoscopes.

    Its all just a con.
