Date Machine: Are YOU a sociopath? - what I look for in a woman... plus the daily throb

Posted by zeitgeisty
When people ask me what I look for in a woman, I invariably toss off, ‘ that they not be crazy!’. You see, I’ve done my time at the ‘nutsy’ mast, and I don’t ever wanna go back. Everything else can be rationalized away, but a crazy woman to me is just an untenable, undoable, unlivable situation. 

Here’s a psychological test I’ve used on dates, that tests whether or not they have socio-pathic tendencies.. It is an actual test psychiatrists give to nutsos.. Most people don’t get it at all, but the ones that do get it, get it automatically.

These are the ones I avoid at all costs.

and now without further doodoo.. the official psycho test:

“Ok.. 2 sisters are at a funeral. The funeral is for a friend of Susan (sister A). The other sister Margaret knows no one. At the funeral, Margaret meets Bill. They hit it off immediately! Over the course of the funeral and wake they fall in love, but unfortunately they live on opposite coasts.. After the funeral they fly off, presumably never to see eachother again. 2 weeks later, Margaret kills Susan. Why?”

I went out with a girl who got this automatically, and she was indeed a total crackpot, so I’m a big believer in this when it comes to gauging someone sanity and or date-ability...

I’ll give you the answer in my next installment.. In the meantime, let’s hear what YOU think the answer is.. How many psychos are out there?

I kind of hate you for this one.  I got it right away, and I'm not a psycho, just logical.  I think it's a poor test.  And I'm bitter.

Are you sure you have the answer?...

Even if you did get it... it just neans you have sociopathic TENDENCIES... it's up to YOU to act on them!

Actually, I don't think that's a good test, seeing as I've heard that same question several times before.  It's possible people have heard it before.

Yes I know I have the answer... I won't post it here for other's sake.  I've seen it before, but I still got it the first time in about a half a second.  I still think it goes back to intelligence and logic.  Oh and also I asked a man whom I KNOW is crazy, and he didn't get it.

"I invariably toss off" must mean something quite different in American. It amused me though.

I also laughed at the 'toss off' thing. Brit slang has a way of making very dirty things out of what sounds normal to Americans.

The simplistic sociopath would posit that Margaret is hoping for a fresh opportunity to reconnect with Bill in a way that enacts the generic fatefulness of their first passionate encounter.  A darker pathos suggests Margaret is friendless and has imprinted her brief erotic encounter with all the hopes and dreams she could have achieved by stepping out of Susan's shadow (the demographic reality of your one and only friend dying is low so we can assume Susan has some degree of popularity).  Sue is the gal standing in the way of Margaret and all of mankind.  In disposing of her foil doppelganger, Margaret believes she has restored balance to the universe and finally collected the love she is due.

That said, I am a kind empathetic lady (a Susan!) without sociopath tendencies.  Although I imagine this is what a raging sociopath would say to cover her scent.

My dad can never stop snickering when he hears the phrase "on the job training."

As to the question, I think I get the obvious answer because I love those silly logic puzzles ("A train leave Manchester traveling at 56 miles per hour. A second train leave London traveling at 63 miles per hours. How many monkeys does it take to kick all the seeds out of a dill pickle?") But if you asked me, I'd give a surreal answer, like "She found out what Susan did to her goldfish when Margaret was 7." Just cuz I'm annoying like that.

i know guys who use this as part of their game. it's like a long drawn out neg designed to make the girl feel bad and to get her to defend herself to appeal to the player-thus continuing the conversation. took me half an hour to figure out and another half to defend. hey, at least he bought me drinks.

OUR BLOGGERS

FishnetsAndLight

Professional Dominatrix, lapsed English major and token black chick extraordinaire. I'm also a great big perv. Bend over.

Location:New York, New York
Looking for: Those who aren't too afraid.

Zeitgeisty

I'm an existentialist trapped in the body of a rational humanist. I've got a penchant for misanthropy and a flair for the obvious. I'm quick with a joke or a light up your smoke, but there's someplace that I'd rather be. I'm Zeitgeisty, pleased to meet me I'm sure.

Location: Somewhere on the isle of Manhattan...
Looking for: A shining good deed in a weary world...

Airheadgenius

I am a fish out of water - an opinionated cheeky smiling English chick in a land of larger than life Americans. I don't understand the culture. I don't understand asking if we're exclusive. I don't understand this weird practice of decapitating penises. Some days I am definitely MILF material. Other days I feel more like the material on the inside of yer grannys' handbag.

Location: Brooklyn
Looking for: A stunning socialist with a propensity to pick winning lottery numbers

amboabe

I'm a smart ass writer who'll argue your ear off, hold your hand close, and tell you the truth whenever. I'm a fool and a hero, a confessional soul, and lover of life in every conceivably absurd way that it can come. I also paint my toenails.

Location: San Francisco
Looking for: A sail, not an anchor.

spjv840

Slightly neurotic, over-analyzing girl..err, woman, with too much charm for the average person to handle. Has a fondness for red wine, cheap beer and a good time.

Location: The Igloo, Canada
Looking for: Nothing mediocre
