Are you a psychopath?

I received this via email and figured I’d share to see whether there are any psychopaths among us 🙂 This is not a trick question.

A woman, while at the funeral of her own mother, met a guy whom she did not know. She thought this guy was amazing. She believed him to be her dream guy so much, that she fell in love with him right there, but never asked for his number and could not find him. A few days later she killed her sister.

Question: What is her motive for killing her sister?

I’ll post the answer later 😉

  1. OK I’m blaiming Korean cinema (or at least Park Chan-wook) for this next idea:

    The reason she was so attracted to the man was because he was HER FATHER and she confused the parental emotions in a state of distress for a different kind of love. She killed her sister in enraged denile for figguring that little twist out.

  2. Okay, Cory gets my bid as the most twisted thinker of the lot – I’m jealous.

    There is another explanation, and that’s that the dream guy turns out to be her sister in male drag, but then wouldn’t one expect sis to be at the funeral in her own persona? Or maybe he’s her sister, but after a sex change. Jeez, I need a life.

  3. no no…the man and sister are the same person. That’s why they hit it off so well. The sister knew everything about her. The sister was a cross dresser, or something. So it was an act of passion upon the discovering the truth.

  4. I don’t think enough consideration is given to the complications that arise from giving a Rorschach test to people that are aware that they are taking a Rorschach test. 😛

  5. Sorry for the delay. Work, you know 😦

    Yes that is the answer. For those who don’t want to look at the link:

    She was hoping the guy would appear at the funeral again.

    If you answered this correctly, you think like a psychopath. This
    was a test by a famous American Psychologist used to test if one has the same mentality as a killer.

    Many arrested serial killers took part in the test and answered the
    question correctly.

    If you didn’t answer the question correctly, good for you.

    If you got the answer correct, please let me know so I can take you
    off my e-mail list…

    All I can say is: be afraid, be very afraid 😉

  6. Now, now. I’m not a psychopath, but I spend so much time around them I know how they think. They’re so devoid of human emotion and so essentially manipulative it’s hard to get an honest answer out of them, even if the honest answer is the best. They’re always scheming and trying to set things in motion to achieve their objectives. You wouldn’t believe some of the conversations I’ve had with such people. When trying to explain to them simple concepts like why the victims of their crimes feel devastated they are often truly perplexed as they cannot relate to the emotion I am describing for them.
