Gawain 0 #1 October 1, 2003 There's a whole slew of cool little tests on BBCi's website regarding the human mind. The one that caught my eye was the test about smiles. Can you tell if they're faking a smile or not? No sh*t, I got 17 out of 20 correct. Here's the link for all the tests... http://www.bbc.co.uk/science/humanbody/tv/humanmind/ I also took the Nekker Cube Personality Experiment, guess what...it said I'm an extrovert! So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright 'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life Make light!

Casie 0 #3 October 1, 2003 Wow! I did horrible. All the folks that looked fake were actually not.......how weird is that????~Porn Kitty WARNING: Goldschlager causes extreme emotional outbursts! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gawain 0 #4 October 1, 2003 QuoteWow! I did horrible. All the folks that looked fake were actually not.......how weird is that???? You know what else though, they do ask those "behavioral outlook" type questions. (are you pessimistic, optimistic, etc) That certainly has to have a factor.... did you lie? Hint: The key is not in the smile itself. It's in everything else. So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright 'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life Make light!

bendywendy 0 #7 October 1, 2003 That was fun. I got 18 out of 20 and had doubts about the two that I got wrong. It's all in the eyes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

littledebbie000 0 #9 October 1, 2003 I got 18 out of 20. My mother always told me to make sure that I smile with my eyes as well as my mouth so that's what I was looking for. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rebecca 0 #10 October 1, 2003 That was retarded! Most of them weren't smiling at all- not even a bit. Did I get a weird version? They were just blank-faced... you've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel loquacious?' -- well do you, punk? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gawain 0 #11 October 1, 2003 There's a little "Play" button at the bottom left of the pics. You get to see them make a smile from a "blank" expression.

NeedToJump 0 #13 October 1, 2003 16/20 but on one video I clicked play and then missed the video and it doesn't let you replay so I just guessed (incorrectly.)Wind Tunnel and Skydiving Coach http://www.ariperelman.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bendywendy 0 #14 October 1, 2003 no, go do it again - you have to hit the play button. they start off not smiling and smile - you get to watch it once and then choose if they are faking it or not. I went through about six before I figured it out and backed up and started again. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

katiebear21 0 #16 October 1, 2003 QuoteI suck! 10 out of 20....... Right there with ya, girl... 11 out of 20! The explanation states that has a lot to do with our personality. I'm pretty optimistic and give everyone the benefit of the doubt... I really WANT to believe they're smiling!

GiaKrembs 0 #17 October 1, 2003 Yea, I'm a bit of a softy when it comes to giving people the benefit of the doubt. I guess some would say - gullible. I'm just a big `o sponge!!! I tried looking at the eyes... see if there was any sparkle to the expression! Silly me, I did not catch the play function. Oh well......

bendywendy 0 #18 October 1, 2003 Exactly - the eyes don't lie - or you've got to be really good to make them lie. The two that confused me actually managed to get their eyes to crinkle a little bit around the edges but they still looked a little fake - I just gave them the benefit of the doubt. Should have went with my first intstinct. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
