A Rorschach test.

Somewhere back in the comments to an old post, I said I had a picture I was going to post:

Hole in a mountain

Consider this a Rorschach test. Respond!

(And if you want to demystify the actual, official Rorschach test, go here.)

I see the profile of a lioness. Whatever does it all mean?

Meade ayon kay ...

A beautiful woman's naked body.

Next.

Joseph ayon kay ...

The painful slippery slope to unrestrained hedonism.

The beauty of that picture is that there is no clue to scale. Is that obvious hole at the bottom large enough for a man, or just for a snake?

Ann Althouse ayon kay ...

Madison Man: It's large. Larger than a man. I was here.

Meade ayon kay ...

A beautiful woman's naked body.

With a silver Audi TT parked below.

It reminds me of Palladian's take on the arguments against gay marriage -- "next it will be siblings, then goats, then rocky outcroppings!"

Ann Althouse ayon kay ...

tjl: Thanks! Yeah, that was exactly the thing I was responding to when I said I was going to post it. The test today is to see if anyone responds to it.

Wow, I got that wrong. I thought it was the inside surface of a piece of split wood.

What does that say about my feelings towards my mother?

Hollows, crooks and caves invariably make me imagine gateways to other dimensions.

-where bin laden sought to find 72 virginS???

1. My career.

2. My thoughts before the very first cup of coffee.

3. Rorschach's rectal exam.

........sorry.

I was wondering about the scale of this, too.

I see three small faces in the upper right corner and one larger face. The dark spot above the cave is the eye of a larger face, which is in profile, facing left.

The long sleep- a kind of death mask. You know what we look like after a long life has ended but before the undertaker adds his makeup.

Simon Kenton ayon kay ...

Looks like drag-folded limestones from a shallow, warm-water offshore depositional environment with some stream-deposition incursions. But don't quote me; "You cain't know rock till you piss on it." And if it's limestone, you need to piss acid.

Palladian ayon kay ...

Oh yeahh.


You didn't disappoint, Ann.

A UW student just before the police arrive to break up the party.

Please no more 'empathize with Foley's view of the world' posts!

Pat Patterson ayon kay ...

A set from the original Star Trek just before Kirk/Spock have to fight some scaly beast for the soul of the universe.

Joe Giles ayon kay ...

Ham and cheese sandwich. Grilled. With cheese running down and forming those nummy queso stalactites.

Laura Reynolds ayon kay ...

Simon Kenton, I see it the same way although we used to call them "Loving Stones" you know a F***ing rock.

Hindi-nagpakilala ayon kay ...

response?

I hate it.

Ahhh, I'll bite. (But props to Catherine, pretty witty, those!)

It's a passage to an alternate universe, beyond the SciFi Channel and The Cartoon Network, where a young boy and his sister find a new world full of trees, and books.

Nah...that's not it.

It's a fast-food joint for Trolls.

Hhhm, nope, I think I've got it now.

It's where all those socks have gone...the ones that leave a singleton when you're done folding the laundry.

Thanks for asking, I feel better now...

:-)

Robert ayon kay ...

Whenever I see something like this, I think "I could make a really cool house out of that."

We need more cave houses. How else can we compete with Afghanistan in the global housing marketplace?

Oh, and also, it's a beatiful naked woman.

Palladian ayon kay ...

In his belly, you will find a new definition of pain and suffering, as you are slowly digested over a thousand years.

amba ayon kay ...

after reading a later post it was helplessly "The Vagina Monologues" (by now petrified and wrinkled but still going), but I see AllenSS beat me to it, sort of.

Chris Althouse Cohen ayon kay ...

Am I the only one who saw a crowd of priests in robes, seen from below, gaping and looking in the same direction?

TalkLeft ayon kay ...

a runny nose
