This has to be some kind of record with this link. It's the fifth or sixth time it's been greenlit in the last few days.

If something works, stick with it.

I had trouble finding it. A little help?

Never ask a Schadenfreudist for help. Especially if you're injured, they generally just pass the salt.

Huh? Colons describe happiness vs depression?

Oh.

Stupid font.

So, because I'm colorblind I'm always depressed? All I see is grays.

Maybe I'm just bad at reading studies, but this looks awfully inconclusive.

wow, way off. I am no where near organized

I like black. I have always liked black, even when I was a very little girl.

At least you can spot the aliens for the rest of us.

Sounds suspiciously like Scientology

Would you ever consider going back?

And are there videos?

I think that actually means he is an alien.

"You've got an instrument now," Whorwell said. "Now people have to play with it and find out the applications."

That's what she said.
 
2010-02-09 12:43:07 PM
color trifecta in play?

It says I am creative! it also provided me with a link to a local Art School. cause and effect? causality proving action? Motivation for causality causing action?

Oddly enough I am taking a week off work to complete an entry for a major judged art exibition.

how odd.

It was daylight when you woke up in your ditch. You looked up at your sky then. That made blue be your color. You had your knife there with you too. When you stood up there was goo all over your clothes. Your hands were sticky. You wiped them on your grass, so now your color was green. Oh Lord, why did everything always have to keep changing like this. You were already getting nervous again. Your head hurt and it rang when you stood up. Your head was almost empty. It always hurt you when you woke up like this. You crawled up out of your ditch onto your gravel road and began to walk, waiting for the rest of your mind to come back to you. You can see the car parked far down the road and you walked toward it. "If God is our Father," you thought, "then Satan must be our cousin." Why didn't anyone else understand these important things? You got to your car and tried all the doors. They were locked. It was a red car and it was new. There was an expensive leather camera case laying on the seat. Out across your field, you could see two tiny people walking by your woods. You began to walk towards them. Now red was your color and, of course, those little people out there were yours too.

Whorwell is now testing the wheel on patients with irritable bowel syndrome.

They'll be using more shades of brown in that study, I would guess.

Yeah, it can tell if you're CEO material. If you're dumb enough to give them your email address, you're CEO material.

I wrote in the box but when I changed my interweb computer screen the number didnt go away. I thought if I used a Sharpie it would be permanent on this Fark page screen, but it didn't.

A few years ago depression was caused by a white stripe on a blue background.

Maybe you're seeing red, because you're green with jealousyenvy.

I like dark blue and grey so I'm.... depressed and anxious?

/funny, that's just what those nice Scientology folks said

Is something wrong with the link? The one I clicked took me to one of those stupid color surveys that tells me I should be something I have NO interest in. This one said teacher.

Attention-starved would be what, a grey mood? Yellow, maybe?

Can I control my mood with my Ikea dioder mood lighting? I also have synesthesia.

Having recently been shopping for bathroom stuff, new age companys already know this.

Chromatherapy. LEDs in your bath....

Also...doesn't your perception of colour differ by culture? I seem to recall hearing that Chinese people are much more attracted to the colour red, matching it with luck, whereas us westerners associate it more with rage and passion.... anyone?
