A little party profiling trick for fun.....try it here ; )

Skitch it! · #1 10-03-2010, 04:34 PM

This isn't at all heavy but a good little party trick someone showed me years back, everyone whom has tried it has found it cool, good fun and liked it... especially the girls, please indulge if you like ; )

There are 4 questions (please take as much time as you need), each of which require 4 answers, per piece. It's important that you answer these questions in more 'emotive' terms rather than physical descriptives, what do you 'see' in them....here goes

A. What is your favourite colour? Why is it your favourite, what does it represent to you, what qualities attract you to it? 4 answers (or 3 is....o.k. ; )

B. What is your favourite Animal?, Why is it your favourite, what do you see in it that makes it number 1? 4 answers please or as above.

O.k. The last 2 need a little imagination on your part, close your eyes even, but try and put yourself in the frame.

C. You are in a white room, it is completely white, there are no doors or windows, it is just you, in the white room.........How do you feel about this, what's your thinking about where you are? 4 answers please ; )

D. And finally...Your floating on your back on a lake surrounded by tree's, it's summer, there is no-one else there, at all, just you floating on the pond/lake with the sun and surroundings,......how are you feeling about this, put yourself in the frame of it,.... 4 please ; )

It's just for fun, if you'd like to try, please do. I'll reveal the keys of it later, enjoy, don't be shy

O.K to be fair, here's mine to start,

A. Colour = Black, why? - Deep, mysterious, endless, nocturnal.

B. Animal = Dog, because I relate these - Loyal, trustworthy, friendly, mindful.

C. The Room, what I think about it - Confused, expectant, accepting?, concentrative.

D. The Lake, how I feel about it - Relaxed, found, assured, informed.

That's it, don't concern, pick your personal deal, take your time, it's just for fun and the first time I've done this on myself but lot's of others : )

MiniMoose234 · #5 10-03-2010, 07:14 PM

A. Green, Nature, growth, warm, vibrant
b. Ferret: fun, hyperactive, impatient, curious
c. Panicked, worried, bored, contemplative
d. Comfortable, sleepy, relaxed, content

MiniMoose, first up, you are a good sport sir, cool ; ) I'll leave it for a day or so, see if anyone else would like to give it a whirl : )

A. My favorite color is blue. It is a very calming color and it reminds me of being outside on a nice summer day.

B. My favorite animals are dogs. They are very loyal and they will do a lot of things with you. My dog swims and goes on walks with me.

C. I would be stressed at first because I am a little claustrophobic. I would settle down after a while and entertain myself with my own thoughts until I went crazy. I would guess that I was in purgatory.

D. Feels good, man. I do it all the time in the summer.

Cool, so make a list of 4 emotive descriptives for each, for instance, colour, you have calm and would you associate being outside in sunshine as say, free? Along those lines for 4 a piece ; )

KeithBMI · #9 10-03-2010, 08:06 PM

Blue: calm, refreshing, cool, classy
Dogs: loyal, playful, intelligent, protector
Room: Claustrophobic, stressed, bored, alone
Lake: Free, relaxed, tranquil, one with nature

^ Yes, all in good time ; )

**SamanthaCay** · #11 10-03-2010, 08:18 PM

A: Red. catchy, exciting, High energy.
B: An octopus. Intelligent, mysterious, beautiful, graceful.
C: Peaceful, at home, quiet, neutral.
D: Peaceful, at home, vibrant, entertained.

Skitch it! · #12 10-03-2010, 08:24 PM

Cool, and so, colour, you would summarise maybe as, eye-catching, exciting, try and give the essence within these kind of descriptives on 4 characteristics you have in mind of the subject in question, no rush, take your time ; ).

I'm hitting the hay....to be continued.......: )

Alrighty then- here you go:
A. Dark, blackish green. Imperial Japanese Navy Green, as applied to WW-II Japanese naval aircraft is pretty close. It evokes thoughts of nature, particularly in the fall(cool temps)& a certain pimp suit I haven't worn in years.
B. Again- cats. They are- like me(IMO/by all accounts)- equal parts lazy, indifferent, horny & handsome.
C. Will I be fed soon? Where's my bass/bike/wife? That's 4, right?
D. Are there leeches in this water? Where's the wine? This is like the scenario Deb(Napoleon D)described to Uncle Rico during the photo session. I can wizz right here.
WHAT DOES IT ALL MEAN?!?

Good, good, now if can you summerize 4 descriptives for each question as posts above, we're in business, so colour = Natural +3?, the animal question is complete, try and add to the others with a descriptive/emotive description, I'll post the keys up a bit later and thanks for your submission ; )...... anyone else like to give it a shot? Don't be concerned, 'tis for fun : )

Take your time, no rush ; ) I'll wait until later, maybe a couple more TBer's will give it a whirl, I won't let the cat out of the bag too early so feel free ; )

Colour: Purple (especially dark purple) - uncommon, striking, can be either hot or cold, er... draws my eye into it because it's so nice

Animal: Dog (preferably labrador or spaniel) - sometimes relaxed and sometimes crazy, lovable, amusing, cute

Room: (sounds like my room in Uni halls last year) - Hell, too restricting, not colourful enough, need natural light or I go crazy

Lake: (Now that's more like it) - Peaceful, summer perhaps a little too warm (I'd prefer spring, but hey, it's still relaxing), complete freedom, wouldn't mind having an accoustic bass or a sketchbook, as that'd round things off perfectly...
