    The "real" answer is like the most disappointing. Makes sense that it's a hoax.

    the real answer from that snopes thing is kinda boring. my further answer was that he was her sisters boyfriend, so she killed her to get him.

    Two sisters go down by a body of water, sometimes a river and sometimes the sea. The older one pushes the younger in and refuses to pull her out again; generally the lyrics explicitly state her intent to drown her younger sister. Her motive, when included in the lyrics, is sexual jealousy – in some variants, the sisters are being two-timed by a suitor; in others, the elder sister's affections are not encouraged by the young man. In a few versions, a third sister is mentioned, but plays no significant role in events. In most versions, the older sister is described as dark, while the younger sister is fair.
    When the murdered girl's body floats ashore, someone makes a musical instrument out of it, generally a harp or a fiddle, with a frame of bone and the girl's "long yellow hair" (or "golden hair") for strings. The instrument then plays itself and sings about the murder. In some versions, this occurs after the musician has taken it to the family's household, so that the elder sister is publicly revealed (sometimes at her wedding to the murdered girl's suitor) as the murderess.
    It should be noted that the variant titled The Two Sisters typically omits the haunted instrument entirely, ending instead with an unrelated person (often a miller) executed for robbing the murdered girl's corpse and the elder sister sometimes going unpunished, or sometimes boiled in lead.

    She wasn't distraught enough to find a guy to date and sex him up at her mother's funeral. So she probably didn't give a shit about her mother. She's not really in love with the man, but she pretends she is. She killed her sister because her sister inherited something of value from her mother that she thought she was going to get. She probably killed her mother too to get this stuff.

    ??? Do I pass?

    nice !

    young girl : a ghost, who was once an elite samurai warrior in the early 13th century
    mother: wife of a terrifyingly honorable samurai warrior

    at the mother's funeral, the young girl (ghost) appears, scans for any members of the enemy clan that murdered her father.
    She see's the sole survivor of their family, her little sister standing in solitude, the whirl of emotions inside her makes the young lady vulnerable to a wicked affectionate ploy...
    Wait, she is being closely watched by a handsome man, perhaps a sinister evil soul ?

    She follows him and reads his heart, looks could deceive ----
    they seem to fall in love and her hunch was right, he has come to destroy the last living member, plus he is scheming plans to torture the lil sister and plunder the family province.

    The young girl peforms a 'sepukku' kind of 'killing' so that her sister's honor remains honorable. Her clan leader understands this omen and rallies to prepare the incoming enemy strike...

    what it means: Honor before every breath.




    i might use this for a novella, maybe...

    That was my boyfriend's answer too. He said mine was stupid and he liked his better.

    I like the bit about the harp.

    It took me a minute, but I'm pretty sure I know the answer.

    Here's a riddle for those, who like lateral thinking:
    After you died you come to a room with two doors. One leads to heaven, the other to hell. But you don't know which door is which. In front of each door stands an angel. One angel will always tell lies, the other will always tell the truth. You are allowed to choose one of the angels (once again, you don't know who's the angel that tells the truth, both angels look exactly the same) and ask one question to find out which door you have to go through. What question do you ask?

    Another one:
    A man visits a five star restaurant and orders an albatross soup. When he starts eating he suddenly has to puke. What has happened here?
    I don't get it. I don't care that I don't get the second, but I want to know the first...OH! Hiccups?

    If the answer is "yes", then that door will lead to hell. If the answer is "no", then that door will lead to heaven.

    If you ask the lying angel, they will be telling a lie about what the truth-telling angel would say. If you ask the truth-telling angel, they will be telling the truth about what the lie-telling angel would say.

    Such answer are based heavily on assumptions, some of them, totally false. I can't really deal in them, but it seems a long time ago and once upon a time smart psychopaths that got caught committing murder (trelelele), answered right away, positively.

    Yeah, right. It is like claiming Socionics is based on Jung...

    Thanks but the answer hinders my ability to figure it out on my own. I was looking more for a 'yes' or 'no'.

    Also, since you're a psycopath per this test can we work something out where I stand up to bullies and you stand behind me and roar to scare them away? I've always wanted to reenact that TV moment.

    it's okay, guys. psychopathy is the way of the future. alien lizards bred with human beings 6000 years ago and psychopaths are simply more evolved lizard versions of humans. so come out of your cages and celebrate your sophisticated heritage.


    I can't believe I am going to share this but...I can be the queen of tmi.

    A few years ago I woke up and couldn't move my neck, so I had x-rays and an MRI done. It was just an old injury that had been irritated but they found out I had bilateral cervical ribs. I was freaking out trying to find out what that meant and I happened upon a website that said it was some kind of remnant of our reptilian past. haha You can't even tell I have two extra "ribs" by looking at me but I know they are there.


    Many vertebrates, especially reptiles, have cervical ribs as a normal part of their anatomy rather than a pathological condition. Some sauropods had exceptionally long cervical ribs; those of Mamenchisaurus hochuanensis were nearly 4 meters long.
    In birds, the cervical ribs are small and completely fused to the vertebrae.
    In mammals the ventral parts of the transverse processes of the cervical vertebrae are the fused-on cervical ribs.
    Recent studies have also found a high percent of cervical ribs in woolly mammoths. Is believed that the decline in mammoth numbers may have forced inbreeding within the species which in turn has increased the number of mammoths being born with cervical ribs. Cervical ribs have been connected with leukaemia in children (humans), so it has given scientists new evidence to believe that the mammoth's extinction was attributed to the condition [4]

    That sounds awesome! Is it an evolutionary throw back or a medical condition?

    Now this is a story all about how, my type got changed, turned upside down. Just wait for a minute and watch chatbox right there, & I'll tell how Gem became the moderator with blue hair.

    In typology central friended and praised, on the picture thread was where she spent most her days. Chilling out, selfies, relaxing all cool, And all typing some people and getting them schooled.

    When a couple of girls who were up to no good, Started annoying her & her friends in the forumhood, She got in one little flame war & got pissed off & said 'I'm moving in with that exboyfriend in the forum with the socionics toffs.

    So Gem pulls up to the forum for a year without being a hater, And yells to typocentral 'Yo creeps! Smell Ya later', Became a mod in her kingdom she was finally there, To sit on her throne as the mod with blue hair.

    I wish I knew. It REALLY upset me for awhile after I found out that I had two which is rarer and I got scared that my genes were all fucked up but I am the only one in my family that has any kind of "rare" conditions. I also experience allergy to water and take medication every day for it. It is a joke in my family that I was left behind by gypsies and my mom took me in. Maybe it wasn't gypsies and it was those aliens.

    Edit:
     

    I also carry the Thalassemia trait. My bio-dad has to have blood transfusions to stay alive. I don't know if they have meds for that now but that was his standard treatment from what I have been told.

    Oh and I am allergic to humidity and my own tears without medication. I really am all fucked up. hahah The allergy thing I have come to accept is part of childhood trauma that involved water. I guess when I deal with it I will no longer have reactions to it.

    It is bone deformation, not aliens. Usually not causing problems in younger age.

    I have no problems with it. The neck problem I had was whiplash (hair whipping ) from dancing. Not kidding. I am joking about aliens but the thought is appealing since I feel alien in this world.

     

    now this song is in my head...annoying me.





    Edit: I do not consider it a deformity. It is actually pretty cool to see in x-rays and does not look deformed.

    Yeah, it was aliens.

    But seriously it is pretty amazing what the mind can achieve through trauma. Negative swell as positive. I always find the link between psychology and physical health/response fascinating.

    Joan Lachkar and Nancy Kobrin believe that terrorists are borderline personalities, "walking time bombs" from continuous child abuse, with absent fathers, "forever connecting to their 'mother of pain'", forming relational bonds that are destructive and painful (traumatic bonding). "As horrific as the emotional pain is, it is preferable to a black hole." They say, "At least I know that I am alive. I feel excited. I have meaning and purpose to my life... it's done 'for Allah's sake, hurts less than a gnat's bite'". Lachkar concludes that Islamic cultures, like borderlines, "are dominated by shame/blame defenses, have defective bonding and dependency needs, are extremely envious, and will retaliate at any cost. They are lacking in impulse control, have poor reality testing, and... suffer from profound fears of abandonment and annihilation, as well as persecutory anxieties." Their relationship with their loveless mothers are repeated in their fantasies about Allah: "If I pray five times a day, kill myself, sacrifice my needs/desires, I will be loved by Allah." Mothers often announce that they are raising martyrs who will die for Allah, even picking which son should die and which must remain alive to support her in her old age. Speckhard reports, "In Palestinian territories, there currently exists a 'cult of martyrdom'. From a very young age children are socialized into a group consciousness that honors martyrs... posters decorate the walls of towns and rock and music videos extol the virtues of bombers... the bombers describe their psychological state (with their bombs strapped on) as one of "floating" or "bliss" [disassociation]." The terrorists, says Lachkar, "conjure up an imaginary companion or "idealized" father like Allah to die for, saying "I'm going to meet the Lord of the universe." All imagine they would still be around to watch their parents be sorry they had killed themselves. 'Every time my father sees my photo, he'll cry.' This is an obvious dialogue with a long-lost father object, a severe yearning for contact. The cries are for the love they had missed all their lives". They are not wrong. Their parents do want them to kill themselves. Mothers of martyrs are often reported as happy that their sons died because they then could feel like their sons would never leave them. As one mother of a Palestinian suicide bomber who had blown himself to bits put it, "with resolutely cheerful countenance,"

    ‘I was very happy when I heard. To be a martyr, that's something. Very few people can do it. I prayed to thank God. I know my son is close to me.’

    The son had been about to graduate from the university, about to separate from his mother, to individuate, to self-activate. The mother was about to "lose" him. So when he killed himself, she was happy about his suicide, because now he would always be "close to her," like a comfort blanket.

    The result of all this early abuse and violent training to be a suicidal terrorist is as might be expected. For instance, one Palestinian psychologist, Dr. Dhafiq Massalha, conducted an experiment recently with a random sample of 150 boys and girls aged ten and eleven to whom he had distributed notebooks, asking them to record their dreams. "The results, though predictable, were still shocking. A Palestinian girl aged eleven dreamt she went into a market in Israel with bombs all over her body. She stopped in the crowd of shoppers, counted to ten, then blew herself up, according to an account of his findings. He found that 78% of the dreams were political, and most of them included physical violence. Half of the children dreamed of becoming suicide bombers." That Arafat and others endlessly told children they should become martyrs and that these messages have been daily shown on TV even in between children's cartoons is just a later version of the parental dicta telling their children it is their duty to kill themselves and others "for Allah". Palestinian children are often given suicide belts by their parents to march around in and practice their suicides . . . . there is a parallel between the sexual submission of young boys to older men in Palestinian society and their later submission to the will of Allah . . .

    Even the terrorist's choice of exploding themselves has childhood roots, since they restage the explosive sexual assaults they experienced when being raped as children. As one psychiatrist who interviewed many terrorists reported:

    ‘We have to study their fantasies to understand these men. The sexual importance is sometimes striking. For some, when a bomb goes off, it is like an orgasm... One fellow told me he felt "liberated" every time he heard a bomb explode. Some others told me they would place a bomb, then sit out on a balcony and listen. When the "boom" came, it was a great relief.’

    What happens neurobiologically during early child abuse is that the child's pain and fears are implanted in a disassociated state in amygdalan fear networks in their brain. Later in life they hear the voices of their Punishing Parents every time they try to individuate, to experience their own needs and develop their own selves, every time they do something the parent was [also] punished for as a child and/or punished their own child (for) or unconsciously internalized as meriting punishment -- all forbidden activities. A child being sexually abused can only conclude that they are "bad" inside—indeed, they are told all the time their own sexual needs are "bad”—and so, what they do is fuse with their Punishing Parents in their own heads (experienced as God) and find others to victimize, to kill. As Palestinian suicide terrorists kill, they fuse with their Killer Parent alter in their heads and shout ""Allabu akbar," "God [Mommy, Daddy] is greatest!" and experience "an expression of empowerment" during the fusion with their powerful Killer Parent alter. Thus the Hamas goal of "death in the service of God" is in fact a death in the service of the Killer Parent and "death to the Israelis" means death to their own "bad boy" self.

    That abusive childrearing practices have a profound effect on producing suicide terrorists is certain. But in addition the overt violence experienced by children living in a war zone or in depriving refugee camps simply adds to the traumatic distress of their childhoods. As high as one-fifth of Palestinian children are chronically hungry today, hundreds of Palestinian children have been killed in Israel's attempt to crush the intifada, and children exposed to bombardment and demolition have been found to have severe post-traumatic stress disorders. Children whose parents are killed in the violence or who are otherwise separated from them are set to "quietly cry," and their early losses cannot help but increase the need for violence in the future. What can be done to prevent all these children who are badly traumatized by their families and societies from growing up as human time bombs?

    Prevention of terrorism rather than revenge should be our goal for the future. Rather than backing military solutions to Palestinian terrorism, America and Israel should instead back a UN-sponsored Marshall Plan for them, designed to reduce the abusive childrearing that is creating the terrorists. Just as the Marshall Plan we created for Germans and Austrians after WWII allowed families to evolve far beyond those that produced Nazism, we must put real money and organized effort into a Palestinian Parenting Plan that will help families get better parenting to their children. There are, in fact, several parenting centers in Palestine, like the Palestine happy Child Center in Ramallah, which was established in 1994 as a grassroots non-governmental organization to promote the welfare of young Palestinian children "through a holistic approach to child development". The center operates now on grants from The Jerusalem Fund, but if Centers could even be supported by Israeli and American funds they might reduce the sense that Israel and America are simply "against Palestinians".


    ‘That Islamic boys are routinely sexually abused, usually by anal penetration, has been reported by many throughout history. According to an Arab sociologist, men regularly keep young boys in their extended families for pederastic use in Islamic societies, since women are considered "unclean", using little boys anally avoids what is considered the "voracious vaginas" of women, and, after all, "the mere sign of pretty boys is regarded... as terribly tempting". One ex-PLO terrorist, Walid Shoebat, reported that "Palestine is a strange society. Homosexuality is forbidden, but if you're the penetrator, not the penetrated, it's okay... Once, on a hiking trip, I saw a line of shepherd boys waiting for their turn to sodomize a five-year-old boy. It was unbelievable... teenage boys prey upon younger children; older male relatives prey upon pre-adolescent and adolescent boys and girls." Although Shoebat says "most Arabs and Muslims will deny that this is so," my own research confirms that it is widespread in the Islamic nations of the Middle East.

    Granqvist reports that most infants in Palestine are tightly swaddled during their first six months. The physical battering of both girls and boys from birth for small misdemeanors is widespread throughout Muslim societies. Visitors to families report on the "slapping, striking and thrashing" of children. A typical report of Islamic cultures says, "A large number of children face some form of physical abuse, from infanticide and abandonment of babies, to beating, shaking, burning, cutting, poisoning, holding underwater or giving drugs or alcohol, or violent acts like punching, kicking, biting, choking, beating, shooting, or stabbing." Islamic schools regularly practice severe corporal punishment. "Honor killings" of girls who are blamed for their own and others' sexual abuse are said to be widespread in Palestine.’

    I thought, cocaine causes diarrhea, not having to throw up... Anyway, that's not the right answer. By the way, in another version of the riddle the man kills himself after leaving the restaurant.

    I Google'd the answer, and mine makes more sense.

    Lateral thinking puzzles are annoying because the specific possibility that is the "answer" rarely makes more sense consequentially than any other intuitive correlations.

    For instance, here's one of my own! "A man is dead in the middle of a road. How did he die?"

    Did you get the answer? Read further...

    ...

    Answer: He was ensnared in having to fulfill his end of a bet after his friend successfully drank a jar of spoiled pickled juice, so he was crossing the road. Meanwhile, as he was crossing this section of downhill interstate, a reckless tractor trailer driver who failed to check if his rig could handle all the downhill gradients on his route because he was stressed from being in the middle of an ongoing custody battle in a prolonged divorce, was not able to stop in time to not hit him.

    Oh, you said heart attack? Well, that's equally possible from the info given, but nah, it isn't right.

    Maybe it's a Ni thing, what with the personal intuitions which seem to abound with these questions...

    But actually you have to ask questions that can be answered with yes or no to narrow it down to the solution. Of course you can answer such a question with many possible answers, but the truth needs to be found out. You could just as well play "Who am I?", it works in the same manner, narrowing it down to the answer by asking yes/no questions. I guess iz engages Ti.

    I looked up the answer, but my own answer to the question was "Why?" was..."Why...?"
