Well, all of these questions are extreemly culturaly related, and won't really work for a western audience.

My sister got this book that's aparently popular in Japan which is a bunch of little tests similar to these, and the answers they give are usualy pretty rediculous, if not just outright confusing, we had a good laugh about them, sort of interesting to see how another culture thinks.
 
no, this test doesnt work, and most of tests like this dont work.
why did it work for you? did your wish come true yet?
 
Well in theory they could work, if they are designed with a spacific culture in mind, and you happen to find a person that holds all stereotypical beleifs of the culture that it was designed for. In that instance it would be pretty accurate, but otherwise it won't really make a lot of sence.

For instance, It says here that a horse represents family. Lets have a show of hands who here thinks of family when they think of a horse. I'm guessing it's not many people. Personaly I did put the horse first in the question about animals, but I must admit that's for rather perverted reasons. Horses have like a 3 foot cock, and being Gay giant phallic images are something which I can really relate to (hehe) so I orderd the animals by what I assume their average dick size is (I'm not a biologist, could have them out of order, hehe). As such that portion of the test really can't work for me.

Well said.....this test only works in the cultutre it was designed for. Also it didn't work because i have gotten this in e-mail about 7 million times already but a good try nonetheless Kinetic spirit;)

These mean nothing at all, whatsoever. Every question, I thought of something that RELATED TO THE PROMPT, which in no way reflects my life. And some things are just inherent to the topic... such as... rats describe enemies, well, fucking-duh; most of society in which this test is for is afraid of or hates rats.

I just hate these things, that is all... I get them all the time...
 
1) Love
Career
Pride
Family
Money

--that's pretty close to my priorities, but I'd switch family with pride--

2) Dog- rough - own personality
Cat- soft - partner
Rat- dirty - enemies
coffee- smelly - sex
sea- beautiful - my own life

some matched up like the sea and rat. I thought the coffee and sex was funny as hell once I found out what "coffee" signified.

It seems to me like this was just one of those fun email things circulating over the net.
 
I have likewise gotten this in email form a lot of times. It worked for me though.

Pride
Family
Money
Love
Career

I'd have to say that is true.

I'm loyal.
My partner is regal...in a way.
Enemies, filthy. Well...most of my enemies are very undesirable sorts of people.
Sex is invigorating. Haha!
Life is cold. That's been my opinion for 19 years, it's only now starting to change.

The part about the people was right, except two of the friends I would have switched.

I don't know, I think it generally works because dogs are attractive animals...a lot of americans say they're their favourite animal. Cats are sexual animals, because of their sleek bodies and gracefulness. Rats of course signify enemies. I don't know about coffee and sex or the sea and life. It seems to make sense somehow. Even if it works, it doesn't really mean anything.
 
just a chain letter, psshh, highly dubious the llama man had Anything to do with this
