    This game is pretty fun. A friend of mine told me about it IRL a while back, and I figured you guys might enjoy it. The trick is you can only really play this game once; so if you know what I'm talking about, don't spoil it for other people!

    Instructions:

    1) Think of your favourite animal. This is supposed to be the "first thing that comes to mind", so don't spend too much time on it!
    2) Write down the name of the animal and your reason(s) why you like it (start a reply, if you want).
    3) Repeat steps 1 & 2 for your second and third most favourite animals. Make sure you're keeping track of all three!
    4) Once you have your 3 animals and reasons listed, read the spoilers below:

    The first animal you listed (and the reasons) describes what you think of yourself.
    The second animal and reasons describes what others think of you.
    The third animal and reasons describes what you really are!
    After you're done, share your answers with everyone else! How accurate were they? It's pretty interesting to see what people come up with.

    Here's what I came up with when I was asked the first time I played:

    1) Porcupine: Because they're badass mofos! (that's what I said, though I'm sure I was thinking it's because they're introverted and protective, but they're also pretty damn cool)
    2) Gecko: Nothing too exciting, pretty cool, laid back
    3) Dog: A good friend, helpful, fun to be around

    Mine were actually pretty accurate, which I found funny :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    1.) Snakes (particularly the large, non-poisonous kinds like boas and pythons) - I think they're generally unloved and feared, so...I kinda feel sorry for them and can relate since I'm generally unloved and people think I'm "unapproachable" or intimidating. ._. Plus, they feel really smooth. xD

    2.) Golden Retriever (the ONLY dog I like) - They're just so beautiful, and I heard that they're one of the least aggressive breeds of dog. They also seem to be very loyal and cheerful. General good companions.

    3.) Eagles - They just seem so brave and cool.


    Wow...um, No. 1 is definitely true. No. 2....also definitely true to a degree. I'm not aggressive, and I'm extremely loyal to those close to me...however, I wouldn't describe myself as "cheerful," haha. As for No. 3..........I don't think I'm brave or cool. XD

    Wolves: They're loyal to their pack, strong, protective and playful.
    Tiger: Power and beauty in one.
    Lion: Graceful and fierce.

    I guess all three are pretty right on. I like this!

    Nautilus - The way they control air in the chambers of their shell to change buoyancy and propel themselves is pretty amazing. Cephalopoda in general are pretty intelligent creatures too.

    Trilobite - One of the most successful creatures to every inhabit the Earth. The amount of time they the existed dating back even to the very early Cambrian is among the best, and they remained virtually unchanged throughout this time. Simple design, but highly effective causing little need for evolution over millions of years.

    Planaria - Amazing regenerative capabilities. Cut one in half and you just end up with two. Cut one into thirds and you end up with three. Even if you cut through the ganglia they can still regenerate

    Grrr...I forgot my reasons.

    Panda-majorly cuddly, and cute.
    Monkeys-curious, and small.
    Pitbulls-misunderstood sweethearts.

    1. I kinda think this.
    2. People say I am very curious...No one has ever said I am small.
    3. Ha ha, maybe I am I dunno.

    1- Absolutely, with a little "duh!"
    2- No, not really. I'm not beautiful or powerful.
    3- Yeah, kinda.

    Fox- sneaky and wary, but still trustworthy
    Owl- Smart, wise, quiet, but will tear up the prey
    Hawk- Crazy, stealthy predator whom many don't like to see

    1. Yeah... I'm sneaky and pretty :grin:
    2. Yeah... I'm smart and wise (to others at least :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:), but I'm trying to get away from that mould.
    3. People think I'm a little crazy and violent... So I think this was pretty accurate :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    1. Sheep: docile, playful, obedient, and are like fluffy clouds with feet. They're as adorable as hell, and they flock around in herds and they're like awesome and I wish I had an army of sheep.

    I'm a solitary creature, so I can't say I agree with that. I'm a total pushover but rather playful apparently, so maybe eh. I'm certainly a cuddly person though.

    2. Skunks: God DAMN they are so cute. They're funny and smart too, and no one messes with a skunk because they know they won't win, and even if they DO they'll have to deal with being miserable for days after!

    Hehe, I hope people don't think I smell like a skunk, but I wouldn't mind people thinking I was an adorable bad ass that they know better than to mess with.

    3. Bears: I love all bears, but either polar bears or grizzlies are my favorite. They're strong, fast, smart and totally kick ass.

    ... I'm a bear? .... FUCK YES!


    More accurately, people think I'm a sheep, I think I'm a skunk, and I AM A TOTAL BEAR. Graaawr~!

    Umm... not really sure what to get from this. I mean, I love octopi, so I read this as me being crafty and smart. But you could also read it as me being really damn creepy, so I dunno.
    Ah well, everyone loves dolphins, so if that's how people see me, I have no problems with that.

    Zebra: because their colouring is so unique to any other mammal.

    Squirrel: because the chubby ones are adorable!

    My Cat: because they provide a lazy "sit-with-you-all-day" lap warmer in winter :slight_smile:

    1 - I suppose. I kind of dance to my own soundtrack :eusa_danc
    2 - Yes and No. No cuz I'm not chubby. yes cuz ppl do think I'm adorable
    3 - Not at all. I'm not lazy.
     
  17. Wolves ---> I love their mysteriousness, they're absolutely gorgeous creatures with beautiful markings, and fur. Especially love when they howl.

    Otters ----> They're so cute!! <3 When they have their little seashell or ball that they play with on their back, swimming and looking adorable.

    Narwhals ----> Essentially underwater unicorns. I know it's a tooth, used as a tool. But, I'm going to pretend that they're magical. M'kay!

    1. Hmm, I don't know if that's how I think of myself. Perhaps in the sense when you have a lone wolf. I don't know that I have an air of mysteriousness to me. I do love my howls. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:
    2. I guess an otter in gay terms... LMAO!!
    3. I'm fucking magical!!!!

    1. Cat- because it's slightly mysterious and silent. It's clean and it's kind of loving too.
    2. Wolf- It's so cute when it's young and it's a very interesting animal.
    3. Kingfisher?- Idk, but I like its color.

    1. I guess that is me alright.
    2. ???
    3. What the- :confused:?
