Colorgenics Test

They take your color preference and, just wow...it's accurate.

You have always longed for tenderness, love and a sensitivity of feeling into which you would like to blend. You are a very gentle warm person and responsive to 'All things bright and beautiful'. This personifies a caring person, a person who 'needs' and indeed 'needs to be needed'.

You are working extremely hard - perhaps even above and beyond the call of duty. You are preparing for the future and therefore trying to build a firm trouble-free foundation upon which you may base all of your dreams and aspirations.

Circumstances are holding you back, forcing you to back off and to forgo all the pleasures, fun and games for the time being. But this is only a temporary situation and before you even know it the situation could change.

You are feeling full of uncertainty and worrying over what you consider as missed opportunities. This is causing considerable stress and tension. You feel that there must be more to life than the constant pressures and anxieties - that surely life must hold far more opportunities than that which it has to date presented to you. You sincerely believe that there must be a simpler way to tap life's hidden recourses and should you be able to find that way - you could achieve your hearts desire. It's the not knowing 'how' that is affording you the constant worry. You are constantly probing and seeking - trying to ensure that at all times you are on your guard against missing any opportunity. 'Enough is enough'. You are anxious to avoid further setbacks. You are strenuously trying to make sure that you will not be overlooked and you badly need security.

You have so many ideas that you would like to revitalise but you need to realise a stable and peaceful condition to do so. Once you can free yourself from all the aggravation and tension around you, you will make strides that may amaze you. You will not be prevented from achieving all the things you so desire.

 

[ashitaria]

This test is complete bull shit.

You are constantly hoping that your good fellowship and attitude and your 'love for your fellow man (or women)' will give you peace of mind. You need people - people around you to care for you and to show you that they care. It is this hope that keeps you going, the hope that makes you the type of person that indeed you are. Your own need for approval seemingly makes you always ready to help others and in exchange you seek love, warmth and understanding. You will always listen to others and you are open to new ideas which hopefully will prove fruitful and interesting.
You are working extremely hard - perhaps even above and beyond the call of duty. You are preparing for the future and therefore trying to build a firm trouble-free foundation upon which you may base all of your dreams and aspirations.
You have a high opinion of yourself. It is perhaps because of this self-centredness that you become exasperated when you feel that your needs are misinterpreted by those around you. When this happens - and it does quite often - you feel that there is no-one that can understand the way you feel and it is because of this egocentric self that you are quick to take offence.
It is said that we are all influenced by our environment and indeed you are no exception. It would seem at this time that even though you may be surrounded by people, you are experiencing an inner loneliness. Fortunately you are sufficiently strong minded to realise that life has a great deal to offer you and that you may miss your share of experiences if you fail to make the best use of every opportunity. You therefore pursue your objectives with a fierce intensity and are prepared to commit yourself deeply and readily. You believe that whatever you would like to do or think 'you can do' - you do! It is because of this attitude that you may be considered by others as arrogant and even conceited, but its fair to say that whatever it is that you really want out of life you will put your heart and soul into it and will not take 'NO' for an answer.
Being afraid that you may be prevented from achieving your hopes and dreams is making you anxious and nervous. As a dreamer your ideas can at times move into the realm of fantasy and you could be following that so called illusive dream.


This doesn't describe me at all. If It was accurate, it would say something along the lines of:


You are pressured, and in need of peace and quiet. You wish to isolate yourself from the world so that you can sort out your thoughts and leave behind the demands of education. You wish that people would leave you to do what ever you want.

Mine said that. Maybe you should have picked my colors!

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.​

 

[Himself]

This test is complete bull shit.

I have to admit, I approached this test with similar skepticism. But mine turned out to be fairly accurate: two relationships that were very important to me collapsed about 18 months ago. Granted, that isn't necessarily "recent" as my results suggest, but the fallout did dramatically change my worldview and alter how I approach romantic connections and trust. I don't consider myself a "heart-on-my-sleeve" type as this suggests, but when I fall for someone, I fall hard. Or at least I used to; nowadays I'm more tentative, maybe even a little skittish, you could say.

Spoiler

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.

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'.

You wear your heart on your sleeve and since you are an emotional person you are apt to give your all - heart and soul - to all those that show you a little affection; but take care - it would appear that you have been extremely hurt in the past and you keep leaving yourself wide open for punishment.

Recent disappointment has led you to become truly introverted. You are becoming suspicious of everybody and consequently you now feel that you are unable to trust anybody. Unfortunately it would appear that you are curbing your natural enthusiasm and imaginative nature - perhaps this is because you are fearful that you may become over enthused and find that you could possibly be carried away by wishful thinking. You are keeping your distance to see whether attitudes towards you are sincere - but this watchfulness could easily develop into suspicion and distrust.

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.

 

[Anthile]

Hmm, kind of accurate.


You feel as if you have missed out on a great deal that life had to offer and you go about trying to make up for past failures. Naturally at times you get depressed and you try to compensate for your 'missed opportunities' by living your life to the full. This is what, perhaps, may be described as 'living with exaggerated intensity'. In this way you feel you can break the chains of the past and start again - and it could be that you are right.

Everything seems to be going against you at this time. Try as you may you are meeting with considerable resistance at every turn. Nothing is going as you would plan. The situation is difficult and you are trying to persist in your objectives against resistance. It would appear that you are being very secretive about your future plans just in case people around you try to thwart you.

You are a demanding egocentric and therefore quick to take offence. This attitude makes people feel somewhat inadequate when in your company and so it is no wonder that at times you feel alone and unwanted.

You pretend that you are a carefree individual and that nothing really bothers you - that you are so self-sufficient that whatever problems beset you they simply flow off you as water flows off a ducks back. You are experiencing considerable stress, trying to conceal yourself from the rest of the world. In actual fact - deep down, you are not at all happy. You feel lonely and you need someone with whom you can 'Let your hair down' and share your hopes, dreams and high standards. You are imposing unnecessary self restraint on yourself. You would like to demonstrate the unique quality of your character to all and sundry.

Whatever you have tried to do seems to have gone wrong and you are now quite convinced that there is little point of formulating new objectives and it is this belief that has resulted in the stress and anxiety. You would like to be able to communicate with other people who think as you do. At this time there seems to be no-one on the horizon nor is there any prospect of meeting anyone in the immediate future. But it must be said that you are really a 'trier' and indications are that you will, as indeed you have in the past, 'bounce back'.

 

[asmit127]

Eh... no. "You want to do your own thing and to be able to decide what is right for you" is the only bit that's accurate, but if you guess enough things one will be true! Nothing else to add really, but I'll post it for your amusement



You are tired of the various 'ups' and 'downs' of life at this time. If only you could win a lottery - or better still, be the heir to a large inheritance which would allow you to afford a life of absolute luxury. This day dreaming will shortly pass and whether you like it or not, sooner or later you will have to face reality.
You are a fighter and always on the defensive. You always need to be sure that your position is safe and established. When you finally make a decision you will pursue it to the bitter end in spite of all opposition.
You feel unhappy because you feel that you are not able to obtain the co-operation of those around you. All you would like at this time would be to achieve harmony within your circle.
Setback after setback has resulted in considerable stress and now you have got to the stage where you are continuously on your guard, not only to protect yourself from others but to protect yourself from yourself. It would seem that many of your unfulfilled hopes and dreams have led to uncertainty and suspicion. You no longer wish to answer to others and you are insisting on freedom of thought. You feel that you are fully self-sufficient and can control your own destiny. You are seeking ways to protect yourself from further loss of prestige and against further setbacks. You have become very dependent and you doubt that matters could possibly get any better in the immediate future and this negative attitude is leading you to exaggerate your claims and to refuse reasonable compromise.
You don't like conflict and you endeavour to avoid criticism. You want to do your own thing and to be able to decide what is right for you. You have considerable personable charm - and this is used with considerable effect on those that keep your company.

Enough is enough - and you feel that you've had enough for a while. You don't need any more battles. You just would like to be able to shout 'stop' and experience a little peace and calm - even if it be only for a little while. This doesn't mean that you need to cut yourself off from the rest of the world - it just means that you are seeking some respite, some physical or emotional relaxation that could release some of the the tension and possibly reduce the internal conflict.

At this time you 'need to be needed' and again you 'need to need'. You have had this feeling for some time now and you are looking for someone who could share a close bond in an atmosphere of shared intimacy. You have the belief that with the right person you could conquer the world.

You are trying to break away from the mundane existence that you have been experiencing of late. You have many high hopes and ideals but you are concerned whether circumstances will allow you to realise these ambitions. You want to spread your wings - to broaden your fields of activities - but you are concerned that your dreams are just that - 'dreams' which are not realistic. It concerns you that you are not thinking clearly at this time - what you need is to get away from it all, to give you time to think. A short vacation could well restore your confidence.

From every direction there appear to be unwarranted restrictions on your freedom of action and this is producing considerable stress. You're really looking for independence and freedom from any restriction and therefore avoiding any obligations or anything which might prove hampering. You are being subjected to considerable pressures and you would like nothing better than to escape from them but you tend to lack the necessary strength of purpose to succeed in this. Whichever way you turn you are being frustrated. You need to be free to do your 'thing' in your own way.

You need to be needed and would like a situation where you will no longer be subjected to pressures and demands from those about you. There is no harm in 'dreaming' but it is you - and only you - that can be able to realise those dreams and to turn them into reality.

-----------------------------------------
Sounds like what ashitaria wants. This is very very accurate for me. I was thinking this right up to the moment I did the test.

Did you pick your favourite colours, ashitaria? I was about to do that but I realised that the test was asking me which colours I felt in harmony with. Probably, if I had done this test on a different day, I would've given different answers.

Anyway there're 8! possibilities, more than MBTI

Edit: I see some common threads in all of the results, perhaps Forer effect?

 

[Madoness]

Uhmmm... kind of negative... isn't it?





You don't need anxiety and problems. All you really seek is a conflict free environment which can offer peace and mental security. You don't like the idea of being alone and, whatever the reason, at this time of your life you feel as if you are being 'left out'. What you really need is perhaps some 'tender loving care'.
You are working extremely hard trying to improve your image. You need for those people in positions that matter to recognise your potential and to acknowledge you.
Matters are not progressing as well as you would have hoped and you are having to make concessions - but you still believe that your goals are realistic it's just that people can't seem to see your point of view. You know what you want but you'll only accept suggestions under duress.
You are experiencing excess frustration and agitation which is the result of trying to resist any form of stimulation or excitement. This may lead to nervous exhaustion, angry outbursts or lowering of the libido. This on-going situation could become threatening and dangerous. You are furious at the thought that you may be unable to achieve your goals and even more distressed at your feeling of helplessness to remedy this. You are at the point of a nervous mental and physical breakdown but it's not too late to do something about it - take a rest, forget about everything and try to take heed of that ancient adage 'He who fights and runs away - lives to fight another day'.
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.

 

[420MuNkEy]

Let me start by saying... the things said by these are nothing more than the vague generalizations of horoscopes. I'm going to insert comments at various times in blue, but anyway here's what my 'results' said:

You are trying to prove to others that nothing can really affect you. You are pretending to be stoical - indifferent to pain or pleasure and indeed even superior to any form of weakness. As a result, more often than not, you unfortunately act with undue harshness or severity by adopting an autocratic and self-willed attitude.The first sentence can be interpreted as applicable to ones self to anyone who makes a conscious attempt to look at things rationally. Ironically, after rational contemplation, one realizes that it is false because the very nature of impartiality is to discard opinion. I think most people tend to try to hide their emotions to some extent, and only display as much as socially permitted. For example: one wouldn't flaunt the pleasure of oral sex in somewhere or to someone they don't feel it would be appropriate to do. The comment an autocratic attitude made me laugh. When one is speaking for ones self, a somewhat autocratic attitude is required, after all, an idea can be shared, but it's still an individual experience.

All of your dreams and hopes have not materialised and consequently you are unsure of which way to go. This uncertainty has led to considerable stress but you have sufficient 'strength of mind' to overcome this state of affairs although it will take some time. Few (if any) people ever have all of their dreams/hopes/aspirations actualized. By the time they have one, they already want another. It's human nature. Make note of the wording here (but ignore the typo of "materialised", which should have been "materialized"). It say uncertainty is caused by not have a dream/hope/aspiration actualized. This means the 'uncertainty' in question can be applied to just about anything in ones life (after all, if someone starts just about anything they might hope to finish). In summation, all this paragraph says is that someone has uncertainty about something they haven't yet completed, but success at a vaguely mentioned point in the future is still viable.

You feel very lonely and frustrated at this time but your shyness and modesty precludes you from establishing any deep form of relationship. You feel rather isolated and alone. You are egocentric and you believe that you are always right - well maybe you are - but you have a short fuse and are likely to take offence for the slightest reason. There is a difference between my being isolated and alone and feeling it. I don't hide my isolation, I embrace it. I am a fairly misanthropic person, so isolation is where I thrive. My tolerance for bullshit is limited, however I am an extremely hard person to offend. Maybe the author sees rape, genocide, and censorship differently than I do... but even those on those topics, I'm much less offensible than the average person. Also, I should note that disagreement with ones statements/ideas does not mean they have offended me. Another typo to note here "offence" should be "offense".

There is considerable amount of stress present in your life at this time and this is perhaps due to some considerable mental and physical frustration. There are various physical needs that are necessary for your well-being but whatever the reasons - mostly of your own making - your needs are not being fulfilled. We wonder why? You are under the impression that nobody seems to care for you. This predicament is most uncomfortable and it is because of this that you are experiencing far more stress than you feel you can cope with. You need to find a soul mate - someone who truly understands you and whose standards are as high as your own. As matters stand you would like to break away from the vicious cycle that you find yourself entrapped but this is easier said than done. You refuse to compromise with your opinions and essentially you are unable to resolve the situation because you are continually postponing the making of the necessary decision. You are stubborn but this should be no deterrent experiencing a happy life. There is actually a significantly low amount of stress in my life at present, but I'll grant the author a mulligan and move on. "Various physical needs" is incredibly vague made even more vague by "whatever the reasons". Few (if any) people do absolutely everything they possibly can to improve their longevity. If this were truly talking about something vital (as it appears to be), the person in question would be dead, or close to it. Who's else making would neglect for ones self be? Another false statement in here, I know people care for me, but I rarely feel the same for them, even if it's expected of me. The author goes on by hailing love, as if anyone reading this hadn't heard of the concept before (obviously leaving wiggle room in case the person reading happened to be in a relationship already by only advising true love). He goes on by telling people to shut off your mind and let things happen (which as abhorrent advice imho). The paragraph ends by telling the reader they can either take or leave the advice and still be happy, thus letting people who are already pushovers accept the advice, even if it didn't really apply to them, and anyone else go either way.

Overwork - be it mental stress or physical strain, you are completely worn out and this depleted vitality has created an intolerance for any further stimulation. You feel disappointed with your obvious lack of energy and powerless to do anything about it. You are angry with yourself and this frustration shows. You are contradictory and argumentative and feel helpless to change the situation at this time. Take a break - even if it is only for a few days - allow yourself to breath, to unwind - you'll feel much better for it. Then trust and let go.If someone doesn't often feel overwhelmed by life, they must be living.

There's probably grammatical errors in there, and stuff that doesn't really make sense (I probably had it one way, edited it, and overlooked an error caused by the edit), but oh well, it's probably mostly legible.

 

[Fukyo]

Spoiler

At this particular time you are feeling the results of extreme stress and you are seeking a 'way out' but you are pushing too hard. Obviously you need peace, tranquility and contentment. Your temperament is such that you are hoping, unrealistically perhaps, that your desires will shortly be fulfilled (even if at this time you are not quite sure what those true aspirations may be!).

Now there are many things in life that you require as essential to your well-being but, try as you may, something always seems to be getting in your way. A word of advice - 'keep trying' and you may be pleasantly surprised to see just how matters turn out.

All the problems that you have been experiencing of late seem to have become a part of your life and there is little that can be done to change the situation. Your emotions run high - but even though you feel as if at times you are about to burst this situation will pass. Try to release your pent-up emotions by participating in some extra physical activities like running, swimming, whatever. There must be some favorite pastime, not necessarily strenuous, that can help you to relax.

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.

Since in the recent past all of your hopes and aspirations have been denied you, you are now convinced that the future will hold nothing but anxiety so therefore 'why bother?' You would love to get away from it all, to escape from the trials and tribulations of this mundane existence and fall into a peaceful and harmonious relationship, which will protect you from the lack of appreciation and give you the chance to start afresh.

D'aww...where's the cutting emo-ticon when you need one?

Vague enough, Forer effect ftw.

 

[shoeless]

so naturally i approached this test with considerable skepticism, especially after seeing what an eyesore it is... but it was actually scary accurate for me.

Spoiler

You are under considerable stress and you are almost about to 'blow your top' but you are fortunate enough to be able to exert control. Control is the name of the game and it is so good to realise that whatever the situation may be a this time - it will pass. You need to get away from everything for a while and if you do, you will find that, strangely enough, it will seem that most of your problems and situations will seem to wash away, just as the sea may wash away 'footprints' in the sand.

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.
We are all conditioned by our environment and as such we respond to people's perception of ourselves, but you feel that conditions are not right at this time. You are experiencing certain reservations that are precluding you to develop a particular relationship, business or personal, that is being offered. It is 'make your mind up time' - the decision is all yours, but whatever decision you make, it will be the right one.

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. 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.

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.

 

[flavur]

Pretty Accurate response pretty interesting

You work hard, seeking success. You are self-sufficient and in spite of all the trials and tribulations that have beset you in the past you carry on regardless.. You are one to be admired because you pursue your objectives single-mindedly and with initiative. You know that you can 'do it' and what is more, you will - without necessarily being dependent upon the goodwill of others.

You are a very warm and emotional individual but unfortunately in the past too many people have taken advantage of this sensitive trait. You need aesthetic surroundings, or an equally sensitive and understanding partner with whom to share a warm understanding.

Compromise is the name of the game at this time and it is the only way you can avoid being deprived of the love and affection you so rightly deserve -so soften up a little, be flexible.

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.

You need to be respected as an exceptional individual. This is the only way that you can hope to achieve the status that you wish to achieve. You set yourself very high standards - and come what may - you abide by them.

 

[LifeLine]

I seem like a real winner.


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'.
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.
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.
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.
Whatever you have tried to do seems to have gone wrong and you are now quite convinced that there is little point of formulating new objectives and it is this belief that has resulted in the stress and anxiety. You would like to be able to communicate with other people who think as you do. At this time there seems to be no-one on the horizon nor is there any prospect of meeting anyone in the immediate future. But it must be said that you are really a 'trier' and indications are that you will, as indeed you have in the past, 'bounce back'.

 

[Alice?]

Hmm. Fair enough? I agree with some of the other posters though, it is pretty vague and all of the descriptions can be used to describe most people at different stages in life. Didn't expect much to begin with though, so that being said, I'd say it's accurate.

Spoiler

You are longing for some love and affection at this time - not that you have been deprived of tender loving care - but there are times when everyone needs to try something new or to go 'somewhere' else to perhaps experience that little extra 'understanding'.
You are working extremely hard - perhaps even above and beyond the call of duty. You are preparing for the future and therefore trying to build a firm trouble-free foundation upon which you may base all of your dreams and aspirations.
Your confidence has been shattered. There are so many things that you would like to do with your life, so many dreams to be fulfilled - and you know that your hopes and dreams are not just figments of your imagination, they are real and you are looking for reassurance from someone. Basically your fears are such that you may be prevented in attaining your hopes and dreams. Even now you would like to broaden your fields of endeavour but in order to develop your 'inner- self' you need peace and solace. You are distressed by the fear that you may be prevented from attaining your goals. What you really need at this particular moment in time is quiet reassurance from someone close to you to restore your confidence.
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.
You don't like conflict and you endeavour to avoid criticism. You want to do your own thing and to be able to decide what is right for you. You have considerable personable charm - and this is used with considerable effect on those that keep your company.

 

[Philosophyking87]

Wow, us INTPs must be super gullible. This test was obvious bullshit.
It's just the forer effect (look it up). The supposed profile information is nothing more than vague language that would apply to a number of people's situations and circumstances. In fact, not only was the information terribly vague, but it was also incredibly inaccurate. I AM argumentative, but it said I wasn't. Utter bullshit. Don't waste your time on this nonsense.

 

[shoeless]

i don't think anyone actually believes it's scientific or actually tailored to them in any way.
it's just interesting the way it ends up pointing out certain characteristics that are actually prominent at the time. OBVIOUSLY it's vague, and OBVIOUSLY it's bullshit.

but it's still an interesting concept. and it's interesting to read things that are applicable to you in one way or another, regardless of how vague it is.

in conclusion: chill, dude.

 

[Philosophyking87]

That isn't to say, however, that color tests can't be accurate. I know of several other color-choice tests that actually give accurate results. In fact, here's a link to one (try it out): http://www.blogthings.com/worldsshortestpersonalitytest/

Let me know what you guys think. Is it more accurate?

 

[Philosophyking87]

Here's the one I got:

You Are Calculating

You are elegant, withdrawn, and brilliant.
Your mind is a weapon, able to solve any puzzle.
You are also great at poking holes in arguments and common beliefs.

For you, comfort and calm are very important.
You tend to thrive on your own and shrug off most affection.
You prefer to protect your emotions and stay strong.

Not really. In fact, what the hell is so interesting about a random set of seemingly peculiar, coincidental, lucky—remotely accurate—descriptions which could actually fit a large portion of the population at any given moment? That doesn't make any sense. And, that's not interesting—it's just irrational, mystical nonsense; hence, not interesting in the least to anyone with a decent sized brain in their skull (which should be most of this forum, if you guys are actually INTP as you claim).

So, ease up with chill dude stuff. The test is nonsense and doesn't deserve five seconds of serious entertainment from people who are supposedly logically-oriented by nature. Pfft. In fact, let's all go have fun with some Astrology; that'll be fun. Lol, ridiculous.

And no personal offense, but the incredible lack of intelligence in your post offends me. We may as well all go to a fortune-teller every now and then, or even some kind of mystical psychic. Yeah... right. It's obvious bullshit; hence, it isn't worth even ten seconds of serious rational consideration. Period. I'm right. You're obviously, and clearly, wrong. So put a sock in it. K? Thanks.

 

[shoeless]

whatever, dude. i'm not even gonna bother dignifying that one with an argumentative response, because your head is so up your own ass that it's clearly pointless. have fun.

 

[Alice?]

Wow, us INTPs must be super gullible. This test was obvious bullshit.
It's just the forer effect (look it up). The supposed profile information is nothing more than vague language that would apply to a number of people's situations and circumstances. In fact, not only was the information terribly vague, but it was also incredibly inaccurate. I AM argumentative, but it said I wasn't. Utter bullshit. Don't waste your time on this nonsense.

I think we're all taking it for entertainment purposes... nothing more. I agree with Shoeless. Relax.

ZINGGGG!! I THINK U JUST GOT ROASTED

PS: how does it create a profile in like 30 seconds? it should add a disclaimer stating: FOR ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES ONLY! anywho my descript

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'.

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.

All the problems that you have been experiencing of late seem to have become a part of your life and there is little that can be done to change the situation. Your emotions run high - but even though you feel as if at times you are about to burst this situation will pass. Try to release your pent-up emotions by participating in some extra physical activities like running, swimming, whatever. There must be some favourite pastime, not necessarily strenuous, that can help you to relax.

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'.

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!

Lol. Owned. Next time, when someone types out an intelligent response which is rationally warranted—no matter how difficult it may be to accept or how hard it presses upon your sense for wishful thinking and fairy tale fantasy—maintain your composition and control yourself, and definitely refrain from attempting to discredit that person's point, because you end up just making yourself look like a huge ass.

Lmfao. Wow.

 

[Philosophyking87]

I think we're all taking it for entertainment purposes... nothing more. I agree with Shoeless. Relax.

Explain, to me, the rational point of finding entertainment in thinking there is some—in fact, any— evel of accuracy in a bad test which is clearly composed of very vague statements which inevitably fit the bill of the forer effect?

I'd love to know.

 

[shoeless]

there is no rationality to entertainment, asswipe. if that's how you get your shits and giggles, frankly, i feel bad for you.

 

[Philosophyking87]

At any rate, if we can move beyond the fact that someone got offended by the fact that the posted test was a bullshit test not even worth rationally considering for two seconds, there are other tests to try out which aren't completely full of it.

That isn't to say, however, that color tests can't be accurate. I know of several other color-choice tests that actually give accurate results. In fact, here's a link to one (try it out): http://www.blogthings.com/worldsshortestpersonalitytest/

Let me know what you guys think. Is it more accurate?

Ever had your fortune told? Ever ponder the plausibility of if fortune cookies are real? If people get free entertainment from these tests, then let them be. Keep your douchebaggery to yourself please

Entertainment can be less rational, but it's definitely a poor fact that supposedly rational people can be entertained by a test which is the equivalent of going to Miss Cleo for some fun insight on personality. You may as well count paint chips. And then, why be proud of that? Ha.

Lol. I think it's obvious that I haven't done any of the above. I actually have a properly functioning brain. But I suppose I'll leave you guys be, if you actually want to entertain a clearly bullshit test. I just wonder why some INTPs tend to be less rational than the description usually seems to indicate.

I'm so curious as to how you have fun. Do you ever... just let go? Ever? Yes, being rational is important and it's a part of who we are and all that jazz, but sometimes people just need to loosen up. If the test offends you so much, why bother looking at the thread and wasting your time on it? And further, attempting to bring us down for our curiousity in a stupid online test? Now that I find irrational. Let us have our fun in peace.

 

[s0nystyle]

don't worry, some people just enjoy walking around with a dick strapped to their forehead thinking they own the place. Perhaps if we ignore them they'll eventually leave

 

[Poprocks311]

pretty accurate for me
You are longing for some love and affection at this time - not that you have been deprived of tender loving care - but there are times when everyone needs to try something new or to go 'somewhere' else to perhaps experience that little extra 'understanding'.
Which ever way you turn you feel that you are being utterly thwarted. There is considerable conflict in the air but you will stick to your beliefs and not be deterred in endeavouring to attain your objectives.
You feel truly deprived - not getting your fair share, but you have accepted the fact that that is the way things are at this time and that it is prudent to let matters slide and not hit your head against the wall -so conform and agree for a while. Accept the situation - nothing can last forever.
You pretend that you are a carefree individual and that nothing really bothers you - that you are so self-sufficient that whatever problems beset you they simply flow off you as water flows off a ducks back. You are experiencing considerable stress, trying to conceal yourself from the rest of the world. In actual fact - deep down, you are not at all happy. You feel lonely and you need someone with whom you can 'Let your hair down' and share your hopes, dreams and high standards. You are imposing unnecessary self restraint on yourself. You would like to demonstrate the unique quality of your character to all and sundry.
Sometimes one fears that its not worth formulating new ideas and projects because whatever you seem to have done in the past has never worked out and you are tired of, as they say, banging your head against a brick wall. No one seems to care. So now you are trying to get away from it all by withdrawing into a 'fantasy land' but unfortunately 'fantasy land' is just that and sooner or later you will have to return to reality so why delay the inevitable? When you do return, you will find that the situation is not as tough as perhaps you thought it was.

I followed the link which took me to a page full of junk, and then when I wanted to take the test it asked for my email address.

No thanks.

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.

You are a fighter and always on the defensive. You always need to be sure that your position is safe and established. When you finally make a decision you will pursue it to the bitter end in spite of all opposition.

The situation at this time is one of considerable distress. You feel trapped and you are looking for some way out. You can find solace in the arms of someone who cares so long as there is no long-term emotional involvement.

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.

Since in the recent past all of your hopes and aspirations have been denied you, you are now convinced that the future will hold nothing but anxiety so therefore 'why bother?' You would love to get away from it all, to escape from the trials and tribulations of this mundane existence and fall into a peaceful and harmonious relationship, which will protect you from the lack of appreciation and give you the chance to start afresh.


The stuff in italics is creepily accurate.......

 

[Akuma]

@Vrecknidj/ Dave
Just give them a fake email.

http://www.blogthings.com/worldsshortestpersonalitytest/
Let me know what you guys think. Is it more accurate?

Let's see.

Spoiler

You Are Emotional

You are dependable, popular, and observant.
Deep and thoughtful, you are prone to moodiness.
In fact, your emotions tend to influence everything you do.

You are unique, creative, and expressive.
You don't mind waving your freak flag every once and a while.
And lucky for you, most people find your weird ways charming!

Emotional? Eh no.

Anyway I highlighted stuff in red that was off the mark.

Spoiler

At this time you are really feeling quite exhausted by all the conflict and quarrelling that is going on about you and you are looking for some sort of protection from this state of affairs. Ideally you are seeking a peaceful condition and a tranquil environment in which you can be afforded the chance to relax and recover.
You don't feel as if you can go it on your own anymore. You don't want to be taken for granted. You need to be recognised as a 'caring person' and it could be that you are searching to establish a relationship, not necessarily with someone new, but with that someone special who could feel the same way as you do.
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.
You are experiencing more than your fair share of stress following an acute disappointment. This may be the result of subconscious conflict between hope and necessity. The tension that you are experiencing following your unfulfilled hopes have given rise to anxious uncertainty. You have no doubt that things could get better in the future and so you refuse to make the necessary essential decisions. This conflict between hope and necessity is creating considerable pressure. Instead of resolving this by facing up to making the essential decisions, you are likely to vacillate and concern yourself with trivialities of little consequence.
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.

"believe in yourself..."

 

[Devious]

It's surprisingly accurate, and I mean not too accurate... but more than what I had expected. Guess it's not too much of a surprise. Anyway I had fun procrastinating with this "entertainment". xD

"Recent disappointment has led you to become truly introverted. You are becoming suspicious of everybody and consequently you now feel that you are unable to trust anybody. Unfortunately it would appear that you are curbing your natural enthusiasm and imaginative nature - perhaps this is because you are fearful that you may become over enthused and find that you could possibly be carried away by wishful thinking. You are keeping your distance to see whether attitudes towards you are sincere - but this watchfulness could easily develop into suspicion and distrust."

That really struck me hard, since recent times have been harsh. Sounds very enneagram type 6 imo as well. Although I'm not a 6, but I believe disintegration for my type would be stressed 6. Meh, not like I'm sure of it anyway.
Well it was some fun, I wasted my friend's time with this as well. So not too bad.

 

[Ex-User (4771)]

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.

Now there are many things in life that you require as essential to your well-being but, try as you may, something always seems to be getting in your way. A word of advice - 'keep trying' and you may be pleasantly surprised to see just how matters turn out.

Many people will consider you egotistical and full of your own self importance. On the surface you could well give this impression and perhaps the reason for this complacent attitude is because at times you indeed have that 'short fuse' and are quick to take offence.

You pretend that you are a carefree individual and that nothing really bothers you - that you are so self-sufficient that whatever problems beset you they simply flow off you as water flows off a ducks back. You are experiencing considerable stress, trying to conceal yourself from the rest of the world. In actual fact - deep down, you are not at all happy. You feel lonely and you need someone with whom you can 'Let your hair down' and share your hopes, dreams and high standards. You are imposing unnecessary self restraint on yourself.

HOLY SHIT that seems pretty accurate

Continue your journey RIGHT NOW by buying your ColorGenics Prediction. For less than 28 cents per day you will receive a 3-month forcast that will literally reveal your own personal destiny.

This was posted on the site, and it's a scary claim on so many planes. Smacks of horoscopes and astrology. It does complicate matters that the prediction itself would alter your present which would alter your future.

For the record, I did the test twice and various shared motifs jutted out on both profiles in spite of drastically dissimilar responses. Forer Effect ladies and gents. Like a fortune cookie cookie. Well, they've probably made more than pocket change already.

Without making personalities out to be almost pessimistically complex and skein-like, they can't grab your interest and therefore can't get your future money.
