A Guide to Being Normal

Did you hear the answers to the Rorschach inkblot test have been leaked on wikipedia. Psychologists world over are deeply unhappy and I am so very amused. They might try to remove it, therefore I am going to post it here. Go visit: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rorschach_test

I do this because I have a rather strong distaste for psychology/psychiatry and also because I am genuinely concerned for all of you dearies. I am sure that all of you are great examples of fine citizenry, but there might be a time when some hack doctor takes it upon himself to declare you psychotic –in which case this will be rather useful.

Hurrah!! That is all you need to know. If in some case they change this, make sure you use limited imagination and for gods sake..don’t say vagina.

I’m going to take a nap and you stay out of the loony bin.

Cheers,

  1. Oh the amusing irony of posting "answers" to a projective personality test on the internet! As a budding psychologist, I have to point out that this is a test without answers...meaning that even if you say "I see a butterfly" in card 1, you actually do not have any coveted answer. It takes a doctoral degree to administer and interpret this test, therefore a simple "butterfly=right" does not suffice. But go ahead and give the wikipedia cited answers, I promise you will be asked something along the lines of a oh-so-cliche question "What does that mean to you?".....

  2. I saw the animal hide picture as a lampost with two people flinging themselves from behind it. Does that make me crazy? I'm hoping it does... It would explain a lot. lol.
