A Psychological Quiz (Answer)

I received this from an email list.  An Internet rumor debunking site says it’s completely false.  On the other hand, if it’s correct, then I will learn something very interesting about my friends, so I figure it’s worth trying.  The test follows…

Sometimes thinking outside the box isn’t a good thing.  Although this “test” has been discredited by snopes.com it’s interesting how some people might think outside of the box:

This is a genuine psychological test. It is a story about a girl.

While at the funeral of her own mother, she met a guy whom she did not know.

She thought this guy was amazing, so much her dream guy she believed him to be, that she fell in love with him there and then… A few days later, the girl killed her own sister.

Question: What is her motive in killing her sister?

Tell me what you think her motive is, or at least think yourself what her motive can be, and I’ll tell you the solution tomorrow.

Overheard

“The superior man contains the means in his own person. He bides his time and then acts. Why then should not everything go well? He acts and is free. Therefore all he has to do is to go forth, and he takes his quarry. This is how a man fares who acts after he has ready the means.”

...who said it?

“Greatness is only a matter of will.  It is the end result of patience, determination, direction and strength.”

...who said it?

“kindergarchy n. Rule or domination by children; the belief that children’s needs and preferences take precedence over those of their parents or other adults.”

...who said it?

“The Northeast Blackout affected 50 million people and zero PEER 1 customers. Find out why.”

...who said it?

“As in 2007, the average U.S. worker has 14 vacation days this year. Just across the Canadian border, our counterparts get an average of 17 vacation days annually. But if you want a real “vacation envy” complex, consider the vacation banks of European workers. France tops the list with an average of 37 days, followed by Italy (33 days), Spain (31), the Netherlands and Austria (28), Germany (27) and Great Britain (26). “

i believe that the quy that she met at the funeral was not as expected. So she killed her sister so as to meet another guy at her sister's funeral.

I guess she like to have more choices at her sister's funeral.
