While I was surfing I came across this quiz where you pick colors, in which at the end they give you results. Here is the site http://www.colorgenics.com/intro.html
Have fun!!!
Here are my results:
Is it that you are working - or even playing - too hard? Because it would seem that you are experiencing a great deal of pent-up emotion at this time which could possibly take effect and lead to irrational behaviour.
Recently you have been experiencing considerable mental anguish and turmoil. You are bored and discontent. Nothing seems to be going right for you. Even your relationships aren't working out and you don't quite know which way to turn.
You are a dreamer and you seek perfection in any relationship that you may establish. Some of your ideas and standards are over the top so it may be a good idea to review your perception of life and accept people for what they are - not for what you would like them to be.
You are experiencing considerable stress which is essentially the result of on going rejection and hostility. You are in the unpleasant position where offers of trust, affection and understanding are being withheld and you are being treaded with a degrading lack of consideration. You feel that you are being denied the appreciation that you deserve, which is essential to your well-being and self-esteem, but you have to face up to the situation because as matters stand at this time there is little that you can do about it - you feel that you are getting nowhere and the continuous struggle is a lonely one: all difficulties and no encouragement. Whatever you try to say or do is met with continuous hostility and no matter how much you protest you are consistently misunderstood. You need to escape from the situation but you are so perplexed that you cannot find the strength of mind to make the necessary decision.
Perhaps in the distant past your trust and belief in your fellow man was misplaced and you can now no longer accept anything as it appears to be. You are untrusting and you insist that before you commit yourself to anything, you examine the pro's and con's with critical discrimination. The situation has now progressed to one where you are apt to disagree yet not make any form of constructive criticism to every suggestion that may be put to you. As a result you are in limbo. There is a saying that goes 'The past does not equal tomorrow'. Think about it - and let go.

Mine wasn't too accurate, though it got a little better as it went:
You seem to be trying to sweep aside the situations (and maybe the people) that you feel are standing in your way. You are impulsive and apt to follow these impulses seeking to be involved in special or exciting happenings. In this way you hope to deaden the intensity of your conflicts, but your impulsive behaviour is leading you to take some unnecessary risks. Back down a little and remember 'more haste - less speed'. I don't take risks. I take things slowly and ignore things until they become a problem. Then I look at the situation hopelessly until I come up with a miraculous breakthrough, which usually barely saves me in the nick of time -- sometimes, the opportunity passes by without incident, leaving me neither hurt nor helped. You are willing to try anything once. You 'need to be needed' and what is perhaps more important you 'need to need.' You can only feel close to a person or persons when you feel you can trust them, but this trust needs to be proven to you. No way in hell would I ever try something like skydiving, but otherwise, this isn't so far off -- I only trust someone who establishes that they are trustworthy, and it's difficult for me to look objectively in that case. The way things are, you feel that you are stuck in a rut and there is not much you can do about it. You feel frustrated and inhibited but if you can find a way to let yourself go, you may find that things aren't quite so bad as perhaps you thought they were. One consolation is that since you are an extremely emotional individual, with the right person you may be able to release some of that frustration and tension with some mutual tender loving care. Right now, no. BfS is humming along at a much faster rate than I've ever made ANY game thus far. The "consolation" isn't too wrong, though -- I'm not very emotional (in fact I'm a rather introverted and withdrawn person in reality), but I would gladly be completely honest to anyone whom I cared about. Whatever you strive to do, something always seems to be holding you back. There is no subterfuge in you. You are a clear thinker and all you demand from life, in a relationship, is a partner whom you can trust and with whom you can, together, develop a foundation of trust based on understanding. You are your own person and you demand freedom of thought to follow your own convictions. You have no interest in 'two-timing' and all you seek is sincerity and 'straight-dealing'. It gets more correct as it goes along, since that isn't far off from me. You don't like authority and you rebel against all forms of limitation. You are your own person and you intend to stay that way and to get on in the world simply by your hard work and determination. Bang on, except I like being an authority myself. I will never take someone else's work if I can possibly help it -- I want to do everything myself. That's probably one of the qualities that would make me a poor leader. You realise, however, that it simply judges the time between your clicks and which of the 64 possible combinations of cubes you've chosen -- it's nothing compared to an actual in-person survey with a qualified psychiatrist. | |
Mine was just the opposite... started out great, then went off who knows where.
"The idea of togetherness, love, warmth, tenderness and mutual understanding fascinates you but you seem to be embarrassed by the thought of allowing this to appear openly. It would appear that you employ a cautious exploratory tactic in the pursuit of this objective, making sure that you are neither irrevocably committed nor found out." I'll buy that. "You are lazy - you dream of a peaceful, calm, uncluttered and uncomplicated life. Your ideal would be to share a permanent base with some person or persons who would be able to demonstrate on-going love, peace and security." This is dead on. "Everyone has to compromise at times and circumstances are such that at this time you are feeling the need to do just that. Put all of your hopes on the back burner and let matters flow for a time - forgo some of the things you want. The good times are just around the corner." Still good... "All of the stress and strains resulting from disappointment have led to agitation and anxiety. You have been going out of your way to make a good impression, but you have reservations as to the likelihood of succeeding. You feel that you have a right to accomplish all that you set your mind on but you have become helpless and distressed when circumstances have gone against you. The idea of failure is most upsetting and this can even mean utter dejection. [...]" It fits up until about this part of the paragraph, then... "You see yourself as a scapegoat and you feel everyone in your sphere of influence has tried to take undue advantage of you. You are trying to convince yourself that your failure to achieve standing and recognition is not of your making but indeed of those around you." Er... lost me there. "You are moody and depressed at this time but it will pass. All of your hopes and dreams seem to have gone astray and you are fearful of planning further for the future. Disappointment at the non fulfilment of your hopes and the fear that to formulate fresh goals will only lead to further setbacks have resulted in considerable anxiety and you try to escape from this by withdrawing into yourself. But that is not the answer. You have the power to succeed, believe in yourself... all is possible to him who believes." A bit wishy-washy on this point. | |
Mine was amazingly accurate, so much so that its weird.
You are always alert and keenly observant. You are not truly satisfied with your everyday status and you are seeking fresh avenues which can give you the opportunity to prove your worth. You feel that there are still many barriers that stand between you and recognition - but one by one you will overcome them. Your tenacity is your one good point - like an English Bulldog, once you take the bite, you will seldom let go. You are lazy - you dream of a peaceful, calm, uncluttered and uncomplicated life. Your ideal would be to share a permanent base with some person or persons who would be able to demonstrate on-going love, peace and security. Loneliness is soul destroying and at this time you feel lost and lonely, perhaps it is because you feel so frustrated that you are prepared to go out of your way to become emotionally involved with someone who could accept you for what you are. You are egocentric, antagonistic and quick to take offence, although it must be said, you can control your pent-up up emotion and thus avoid open conflict. You are feeling trapped by the situation as it stands at this time and what is more, you feel powerless to remedy it. You are stressful, angry and disgruntled. You feel that everything that you try to do to change the situation is thwarted and your hopes and aspirations all seem to be receding into the ever distant future. You have reached the state where you now doubt whether your dreams will ever be achieved and this is not only causing mental stress but heartache. You need to get away from it all - you need to have time to think, to recuperate, to be able to make your own decisions. You are anxious about all the limitations to which you are subjected to at this time. You feel that you are not valued for what or who you are. You need OUT. So why procrastinate any longer - MOVE! | |

I'll take this little poem bit by bit:
Your mind is never at rest.You are continually striving to influence all those about you. You have some excellent ideas but you persist in trying to persuade others just how great your ideas really are. Maybe you are trying too hard. Take it easy - remember, 'Everything comes to those who wait'. Oh please. This is pretty bad. My mind sometimes runs wild, I'll admit... 'never' at rest is not well descriptive, though. I do have excellent ideas, naturally. Trying too hard? If I try any less, I would crash and burn. I don't like this one. You are very orderly, methodical and self sufficient. You demand and need the respect, recognition and understanding of all those who enter into your sphere on influence. I like this slightly better. I am orderly and methodical to an extent, but at times I much prefer impulse. I feed on respect; disrespect me, and I likely feel down for the rest of the day unless a large dose of respect is administered. On days when I am fully acknowlaged and respected, I feel sky-high. Shpere of influence? I don't even know what that means. You give the impression that you are a self-sufficient individual, pretending that you are stoical - indifferent to pain or pleasure. But this is not so, for in truth you are an extremely emotional person, one that may make hasty decisions and perhaps repent at leisure. It is time now perhaps to break the bond of detachment and become the real 'you' - the you that you would like to be. This is where it gets better. I am, at heart, very leisurly. I failed in school for years due to my laxness. I then shaped up and started succeeding in the form of stoicism. I like the new me so much better that I'm sure that I'll never go back... so the advice that this gives is pretty much crap. I do appriciate the insight, though. You are being unduly influenced by the situation that is all around you. You do not like the feeling of loneliness and whatever it is that seems to separate you from others. You know that life can be wonderful and you are anxious to experience life in all its aspects, to live it to the full. You therefore resent any restriction or limitations that are being imposed on you and you insist on going it alone. This is more accurate, and dosn't get queer on me like some of this crap does. I dislike--hate even--restriction and feel that something seperates me from the 'in-group' though I cannot figure out what it is or much improve my situation. I try very hard to make the people that I want to associate with like me and have moderate success, but wish that I could do better. You are anxious about all the limitations to which you are subjected to at this time. You feel that you are not valued for what or who you are. You need OUT. So why procrastinate any longer - MOVE! This is fine and dandy, but I want to know what 'OUT' and 'MOVE' are supposed to mean. If the website was trying to yell at me, I didn't appriciate it. -Lord of Water P.S. Feel free to reply to this... I would like to see what people have to say, if anything. | |
Is it just me, or do all the profiles take a wholly depressing view of how you're feeling about your life?

It's depressing advertising that, fortunately, didn't make it to my inbox. If I can remember how to fold those fortune telling paper things I made in gradeschool, I'll show them. I can write their destiny in those things. They might know me now, but I know them later! | |
For what it's worth, here's my result:
Orange, Red, Gray, Black, Blue, Green, Purple, Yellow You are a very emotional and sensitive individual. Your life and love of life is dominated by your emotions - you have great feeling towards your fellow man and you are always full of enthusiasm but be careful, you tend to let your heart rule your head and this being so, you could be easily hurt - as perhaps you may have indeed been hurt in the past. I'm not sure any of this really works. The way things are you are under considerable stress and you feel that there is little hope of matters righting themselves. Everyone about you seems to aggravate the problem even more. You feel that at this time you need to be alone and you are right - move back and give yourself a chance to breathe. Well it started out promising, then flew off target. It is amazing that you yourself believe that old 'adage' that you are a misunderstood person - and you feel that because of this you are being left out in the cold. It is because of this lack of believed understanding that you feel the need to conform to society in general - but this situation leaves you 'cold' knowing that you are not appreciated for your true self. Any relationship that you are developing at this time does not seem to involve any true emotional commitment, you seem to be just playing along. This is mostly nonsense. I don't feel unappreciated, misunderstood, or any need to conform to society. For some time now your hopes and expectations have been denied and because of this you are becoming withdrawn and introverted. Continual disappointment has manifested itself in you becoming both suspicious and restrained you have become withdrawn from others and have receded more and more into yourself. You seem to have lost your innate enthusiasm and imaginative nature, for fear that you may be carried away by it only to find that you are wasting your time. You are loath to trust people, as in the past your trust has been misplaced. You seem to be keeping yourself cautiously aloof from others. At this moment in time your attitude is to trust nobody - until they can prove themselves to you. Fairly on target until it hits the trust part, then it veers off on a tangent. Disappointment and the fear that there is no point in formulating fresh goals have led to anxiety and you are distressed by the lack of any close and understanding relationships. You feel you are not appreciated by those who matter to you. You are attempting to escape into a world on which you can relax and feel at ease. The first part of the first sentence works, the rest is hooey. All in all I found Jotdaniel's analysis squared a lot better with me. It's odd that this thing is so far off; I'm not that complicated a person. Lummox JR | |
Alright, I picked blue, black, purple, green, red, white, yellow, orange.
This is what I got: At this time you are feeling 'uptight' and you are urgently in need of rest and relaxation; but perhaps even more than that you need to overcome that feeling that you have been 'hard done by' and treated with a complete lack of consideration. Maybe you have, but whatever may have been the cause of your inherent anxiety, you regard the situation as intolerable. Your are, however, sufficiently competent to turn that situation around - you have overcome similar problems in the past, and really this one isn't too different.

i just thought i would share mine because while i was reading it, it gave me the feeling that the guy actually knew me. was creepy. it was not perfectly acurate but very close.
At this particular time, you are feeling that you are or were unjustly and undeservedly treated and/or betrayed in your hopes and dreams. You feel that everything is against you. But look on the bright side for you are, whether you believe it or not, a survivor. --this part was very accurate. in my point in life everything is against my goals for life. i have a high goal set for what i will accomplish in life, and although everyone and everything seems to be trying to keep me away from that goal i am the kind of person that will never give up. i would rather die than give up, which is probably what will happen to me. You are very self-sufficient and methodical. You presume to know where you are going but need to find a person who will recognise the way you are, not be too demanding and who is, as they say in Italy, 'Simpatico'. --i am self sufficient and methodical. i rely on noone. i know exactly where i am going in my life. that last part im not sure about, what does "Simpatico" mean? You are confined and trapped in a distressing or uncomfortable situation and seeking some way out. Whatever you seem to do to resolve the problem hasn't worked out. Fortunately you are able to gain some aspect of relief from someone close to you. --i am definately confined and restrained from my life in my current environment, and i will get out, i just cannot get out with the current conditions, i do not just seek to do things, when i want something done it gets done. though there is noone close to me to get relief from as it says. For some time now your hopes and expectations have been denied and because of this you are becoming withdrawn and introverted. Continual disappointment has manifested itself in you becoming both suspicious and restrained you have become withdrawn from others and have receded more and more into yourself. You seem to have lost your innate enthusiasm and imaginative nature, for fear that you may be carried away by it only to find that you are wasting your time. You are loath to trust people, as in the past your trust has been misplaced. You seem to be keeping yourself cautiously aloof from others. At this moment in time your attitude is to trust nobody - until they can prove themselves to you. --the first part of that was the farther from the truth than any other part. i am not manigfesting dissapointment, but the second part is true. i am loath to trust people, because in the past, time and time again, my trust has been broken. i keep to myself quiet and reserved, unless someone proves themselves, then i hold nothing back from them, no secrets. i do not refrain from going for my goals just because i think "they are a wasting my time" You are moody and depressed at this time but it will pass. All of your hopes and dreams seem to have gone astray and you are fearful of planning further for the future. Disappointment at the non fulfilment of your hopes and the fear that to formulate fresh goals will only lead to further setbacks have resulted in considerable anxiety and you try to escape from this by withdrawing into yourself. But that is not the answer. You have the power to succeed, believe in yourself... all is possible to him who believes. --i am not moody and depressed because i think that my planning has gone astray. when things appear that they might be going how i dont want that is when i work harder. i do not let those things get the best of me. that very last part is how i think. i have the power to succeeed. i believe in myself, all is possible to him who believes (and never gives up). i have a life to live and a goal to fullfil, nothing will get im my way. | |
Ooooh... a semi-randomized conglomeration of vague generalities! It's like it sees into my soul!

Actually, after doing it, it's more like it's seeing into someone else's soul:
You are feeling really miserable at this time and you'd like to form a relationship with someone with whom you could really communicate. At the same time, whoever it may be, that special 'someone' must not conflict with your own belief system or ideals. This makes for tough going - but it would seem that the situation is only transitory. It will soon pass. If this were the case, I think I would have found time to mention it to my girlfriend one night while we're lying awake, talking for hours. You are experiencing considerable difficulty trying to achieve your goals. As a consequence of this you are becoming more and more irritable. Your friends and acquaintances are finding it increasingly more difficult to appease or to reason with you. You are the cause of your own problems. Don't be so impulsive. It is your vacillation that can lead to problems and uncertainties. Ease up a little. Now, I know this is a lie. I don't which is less likely: that I could become any more irritable, or that my friends could find it harder to deal with me. It is amazing that you yourself believe that old 'adage' that you are a misunderstood person - and you feel that because of this you are being left out in the cold. It is because of this lack of believed understanding that you feel the need to conform to society in general - but this situation leaves you 'cold' knowing that you are not appreciated for your true self. Any relationship that you are developing at this time does not seem to involve any true emotional commitment, you seem to be just playing along. Conforming? Really, I didn't realize "lesbian chic" was so widespread... You are pretending that the situation around you doesn't matter, but the effort of trying to conceal your emotions and anxieties is resulting in untold stress. The existing situation is disagreeable. You feel unwanted and lonely and you would really like to associate with someone whose ideals are as high as your own. You want to be above the standard of mediocrity and this need to be needed and that need to need has almost become an obsession. You are trying to magnify the need into a compelling urge. You would really like to tell the world how great you are but no, you are holding back because you feel that your peers may treat you with contempt. This is a great pity because you have in fact a unique quality of character, but the continual restraint that you impose on yourself makes you suppress this need for others and you pretend you don't really care. You treat those who criticise you with contempt. However, to be honest, beneath this assumption of indifference you really long for the approval and esteem of others. Yes! The restraint! Damn my Vulcan-like control of my emotions! Why must I remain aloof, as a figure carved from ice? You are greatly impressed by individuality and have interest in people who have outstanding qualities. You try to imitate those people that you admire and their characteristics, hoping that you will be able to display similar qualities in your own personality. I'm impressed by individuality, so I try to imitate people who are unique? To quote the great and powerful Oz (no, the other one), "That makes the kind of sense that is not." Really, the most "revealing" part of the process is at the end, where it tells you if you come back later, you'll be able to pay them to find out how to fix the problems you didn't know you had. Maybe with the feds on her back, Miss Cleo's found a new line of work... | |

Notice how often the bit about feeling unappreciated or hard done by comes up? ...the number of times trust issues are mentioned? ...the frequency with which a hopelessly bad situation is brought up? (I know everyone has problems, and many people have bad ones, but I'd like to believe that only a percentage--maybe 10% absolute tops--have an intractable problem. Of course, I'm in that 10%, so my perspective could be off.) Lummox JR | |

You are the sort of person that needs a peaceful environment. You seek release from stress and freedom from conflicts and disagreements, of which you seem to have had more than your fair share. But you are taking pains to control the situation by proceeding cautiously and you are right in doing so as you are a very sensitive person.
The way things are you are under considerable stress and you feel that there is little hope of matters righting themselves. Everyone about you seems to aggravate the problem even more. You feel that at this time you need to be alone and you are right - move back and give yourself a chance to breathe.

But this is not so, for in truth you are an extremely emotional person, one that may make hasty decisions and perhaps repent at leisure. It is time now perhaps to break the bond of detachment and become the real 'you' - the you that you would like to be.
Having experienced considerable disappointment of late and not knowing quite what to do about it this has led you to suffer a great deal of agitation and anxiety. You are trying very hard to make favourable impressions all round. You feel that you have a right to do anything that you wish without being condemned for your beliefs. Everything seems to be going against you and you feel helpless to change the situation. The possibility of failure is most upsetting and this situation is leading to untold stress. You honestly believe that the situation is not of your making - it is not your fault - you have been misled and abused by those that you trusted, but you are trying to look at the situation quite dispassionately. Would you perhaps not agree that this situation could be regarded as unrealistic self justification?
You are completely worn out and you are not in the mood for any further demands on your resources. The situation - such as it is - has rendered you quite helpless, unable to continue the mental battle that you have been pursuing for some considerable time. Enough is enough. All you would like to do now would be to have some time for yourself, to find a peaceful situation where you can recuperate in your own time.

This is pretty much true to
