Meme-pledge fulfillment

Also, it feeds my curiousity of what people associate me with.

1. Think of the first word that comes to mind when you think of me.
2. Go to Google Images and search for that word.
3. Reply to this post with one of the pictures on the first page of results (don't tell me the word). (To insert an image, type < img src="url of the image">, but ( Read more... )

Okay, so I followed the instructions and put in a word that comes to mind when I think of you, and this is my result. In fact, it was actually the first result. Please note, my search did not include the words "rubik's' or "cube".

Gah! I need hints. I've made a couple reasonable guesses that have Cube images on the first line but never this one.

Is it a single word? Noun? Adjective? Adverb?

It is a single word, and it is an adjective. I will provide more hints upon request.

Okay, that took a lot longer than it probably should have.

"logical" right?

Yup. I thought it was too perfect when I chose the word I think best describes you and up popped a Rubik's cube as the first result!

In retrospect, I think I know why it took me so long to consider "logical". I was trying to associate the word with the Cube, and logic is way down on the list of concepts that I personally associate with it (pattern matching, visual-spatial, group theory, dexterity, etc.).

See? Logical! I'm not surprised it took you some time to get it. I don't think the clue of the cube would have been particularly helpful to me. I certainly don't consider it a great clue to get the word "logical".

I assume that you aren't going to do this meme yourself, but I'm going to give you pictures anyways:



I couldn't express the next one precisely as a single word (or short phrase), but here's a good picture from one approximation:

Gah, a repost of the first image:

Gah! I haven't been able to figure out what the pictures for other people represent, so there's no reason I'd be better when they're for me. I'm...robotic and symbolic? Probably not.

The storm troopers were for "clone", which is a poor one word expression of how often we tend to exactly duplicate each other in an idea or thought process.

I'll give you another shot at the other.

Clone! I should have gotten that, and am actually rather shocked that I didn't, given the words that I tried (among those: "copy", "twin", "similar", "same"). So...yeah. That's ridiculous that "clone" didn't cross my mind.

I take it the other one is "e-mail".
