It's not that it has helped me choose a career. I'm just going to stare at it for the rest of my life. It's mesmerizing, isn't it? Like a lava lamp but with Freud instead of wax. Is it just me or do all Rorschach tests look like female reproductive organs?Speaking of which, here's another idea that popped up in my mailbox recently.
Damn, I knew I should have had kids!
Luckily, there's more to see in my inbox. Are my stars aligned? Astrocenter wants to help me find how my birthdate and time have determined what I should do with my life.
Okay, but after I've killed all the astrologists--I interpret the stars in my own way--then what shall I do? Maybe I should take this online suggestion to help me cover my own tracks.
That just seems like so much work. I'd rather take advantage of my latest electronic inspiration.
Who's going to help me write my grant application for staring at the morphing Rorschach test?

I'll admit that I just read through this blog real fast so I could go back and stare at the Ink Blot morph into a therapist! And to think I chose to become a therapist without the help of this way cool graphic. I think most of us filter out the ads we see online so we can get to whatever we went online for in the first place, but occasionally something like this catches my eye. I also like the dancing animations "excited" over being approved for a mortgage loan or whatever. :)
@Pamela: I'm with you on this but you lost me with the dancing animations. They're too skittery for my taste. Maybe that says something about my personality.
Have you ever used the Rorschach in therapy? Do you have an opinion about its efficacy?
Maybe if my psych class hadn't been so early in the morning I would have kept it as part of my multifield. Instead I only did a double major. I know, I was a slacker.
I bet you didn't know-- the baby in that last ad is Grant. It's not about raising money for a new career. It's about buying babies on the blackmarket.
This is why he looks so sad. He's mourning his previous life in Namibia
But hey-- you can get a Grant, too. And they you can tackle that Moms Making Money career. :)
You actually look at those. I have absolutely no patience what so ever for commercials of any kind. It is one reason I do not watch TV. Makes me want to scream!
I can be a ballistics analyst?
SO I can actually get PAID to blow shit up?
Awesome!
@Jenn: That way, I can kill two birds with one stone. But the stoning urge is why I don't have kids. (Long story.)
@ettarose: I hate these things, too. I just saved them up for when I had a total lack of creativity, et voila! A new blog post!
@Mike: Don't get too excited. Have you seen CSI? I'm pretty sure all you do is shoot into a box of goo during a musical montage.
Nah, you should be making tens of thousands of dollars from home just by posting ads on Google.
@John: That's what every ad on Facebook tells me. I must be stupid not to have figured out the secret yet.
In that Rorschach I see mommy and daddy standing on our front lawn fighting over the body of a neighbor who died of "accidental" causes. Does that mean I qualify to train for rewarding career as a psychologist? Or does that mean I need a psychologist? I'm so confused...
Well you can keep your emails..my inbox is making promises of not only losing all my excess weight, but getting rid of every stretch mark while I'm lying on a sandy beach in an exclusive members only club..all I need to do is send in my social security number and other personal info, and I'm good to go.
@Herman: Yes and yes.
@nipsy: Good for you. I'm hoping my Nigerian lottery winnings will be in today's mail.
This is exactly the sort of thing they were flogging 50 years ago, too - the career schemes, the weird schools, the making of fab amounts of money...without the Freudblot, though. That is new and freaky. Maybe you could hypnotize people by showing it to them.
@Lidian: I just got one about making a fortune on eBay and then another from an RV sales center. If I get evicted, I can live on the road like BJ & the Bear--" best of all we don't pay any property tax"--remember that show?
