Perhaps you should have actually paid attention while in your "pschology" class because that's utter bullshit. Please tell your instructors of your little experiment and see how wrong you are. While doing the NY Times crossword today I needed a seven letter word starting with "B". The first thing that popped into my head was "Bowling". Does this mean I am
really a closet bowling fanatic Dr. Freud?
You certainly are proud of yourself aren't you. What happened to you in your childhood that has caused you to become so arrogant and pompous? Were you teased? Poor? Father dropped out of 5th grade? No affection from mommy? Bullied on the playground? You claim to be all fun & games but your non-stop boasting of wealth and schooling has been quite a telling exercise into your psyche.
Please continue to amuse us all with more..
So far as the crossword goes, whatever the clue was, would be what caused the word to pop in your head. If the clue was an indoor sport, Bowling would be a logical guess. Now if I wrote down a B, followed by 6 blanks, and asked you to write the first word that came to your mind, and you wrote Bowling, than yes, it probably means you like to bowl, or went bowling recently. I never claimed to be rich, and am not rich. If I were rich, I wouldn't drive a 2005 Mustang, or live in a 3400 sq ft home. I would drive a 2007 Shelby GT 500, and live in a 5000 sq ft home. I was not teased as a kid, nor was I poor, my dad graduated with honors, my mother was too clingy. If you think I am "pompous", and that may be, I think you will find that not all, but alot of people that have spent 12 years in college educating themselves, tend to be pompous and arrogant. Another psychology trick other than Writing a letter followed by blanks to see what a person will think of ---- Did you konw taht if you wtire an ertnie prgarpaah, and mix up all the mdilde lteerts, but lvaee the frsit, and lsat ltertes the smae, you can slitl raed it? Humans also seem to focus on negativity, which is why the news is filled with stories of crime, rather than stories of good deeds. When I write Ni****s, the brain instantly assumes the asterisk stand for something bad, that shouldn't be seen,but that is not always the case. If your college professor played this trick on you, you'd think it was cool, but on this site, filled with people who thrive on playing a game designed to mimic war, it is seen as hatred, because some part of all your minds enjoys violence such as this game depicts, even if it is just mild violence, so when someone pulls this trick on the members of this site, you will of course assume the worst. Granted most people would see what you all saw, but not nearly as high as a percentage. This trick was played on me in college. This is what was posted N----------. The clue was, " A word that would describe someone as Sub Human. Most people would instantly think of the hated N-Word, but in this case the answer is NEANDERTHAL. 63% of the class put the hated n-word, not even noticing that there were too many blanks for that, but nothing else came to mind. I couldn't think of anything, and missed it completely. A few got Neanderthal, but not many. I was less than surprised that around 100% of the people on this particular site guessed the n-word. On other sites, the percent was still surprisingly high, in the 85-90% range, but not 100%.
You all think I am acting immature, or bogoted, or racist because of my post. All I am doing is gauging your reactions, and determining percentages. The percentages on CC suggest that the mentality of the sites users lean heavily towards hatred, and bigotry. On a website I will name later, around 75% thought my post were funny, and clever. When I am done with my research, I will tell you the site, and you can see for yourselves. Basically all of you at CC have been nothing more than pawns for my final exam in Psychological development of the Human Brain. Whoever gets the highest grade, gets to have their work published in a book. I am the leading my whole class right now, as I am willing to do everything I've done on this site to gather research. I am done now. I have what i need. You'll be seeing no more inflammatory post from me.
I apologize to anyone who was SERIOUSLY offended by my absurd post. I don't hate soccer, other races, other religions, nor do I target lower ranked opponents in games, I am very tolerant of homosexuals (male or female) and don't think they should be put to death. If I've forgotten any, I apologize. I made alot of odd post. If you are curious to know about my ACTUAL thoughts and feelings on a particular subject, list it, and I will tell you. Again no hard feelings for the abuse I've endured. Most were rather entertaining, and insightful.
