So, the other day, I stumbled upon this thing called the “supersoft personality test.” My buddy, Dave, was going on about it, saying how it was, like, totally different and all that. I’m usually pretty skeptical about these online quiz things, you know? Most of them just tell you you’re a golden retriever or a slice of pizza based on your favorite color.
But hey, I had some time to kill, so I thought, why not? Fired up the old laptop and found the page. The name “supersoft” kinda made me chuckle. I was half expecting cartoon characters and sparkles everywhere.
My Dive into the “Supersoft” Zone
The process itself was, well, interesting. I clicked the start button, and a whole bunch of questions popped up. Not your usual “Are you an extrovert or introvert?” type stuff, at least not directly. Some were more like scenarios. “Imagine you’re a cloud, what kind of cloud would you be?” – that sort of thing. Honestly, some questions felt a bit out there. I remember one asking about my favorite texture, which, okay, I guess I have one, but how does that relate to my deep-seated personality traits?
I plowed through them. It wasn’t super long, maybe took me about fifteen minutes. I tried to be honest, even with the weirder questions. Like, am I a fluffy cumulus cloud or a wispy cirrus? Decisions, decisions!
Here’s a bit of what I recall from the actual doing:
- Answering weird prompts about feelings towards inanimate objects.
- Choosing between abstract images that supposedly meant something.
- Reflecting on things I hadn’t really thought about before, like my preferred type of silence. Yeah, really.
It wasn’t difficult, just a bit… floaty? That’s the word. The whole experience felt very gentle, almost too gentle. Like it was afraid to give me any hard truths. Everything was phrased in a super positive, encouraging way. “Supersoft,” I guess, really lived up to its name.
The Big Reveal… Or Was It?
Finally, I hit the “see my results” button. And what did I get? Well, it gave me this profile, calling me a “Gentle Harmonizer” or something equally fluffy. It came with a nice little graphic of a pastel-colored landscape. The description was full of words like “empathetic,” “creative,” and “intuitive.” All nice things, sure, but also incredibly vague.
Honestly, I didn’t feel like it told me anything groundbreaking. It was like a horoscope, you know? Broad enough that anyone could see themselves in it. My wife, Sarah, took it later and got “Creative Dreamweaver,” and when we compared notes, a lot of the core descriptions sounded suspiciously similar, just with different labels.
It kind of reminded me of this team-building workshop we had at my old company, years ago. We all had to take this color-based personality test, and then they put us in groups based on our “color.” I was a “Blue,” apparently, which meant I was analytical and calm. The “Reds” were supposedly fiery leaders, and the “Greens” were supportive. It was all a bit silly. We spent a whole afternoon talking about our colors, but the next day, everyone was back to their usual selves, and Dave from accounting (a “Red,” supposedly) was still the quietest guy in the office. These things, you gotta take ’em with a grain of salt, right?
So, the “supersoft personality test.” Was it life-changing? Nah. Was it a bit of harmless fun for a few minutes? Sure. I don’t think I’ll be framing my “Gentle Harmonizer” certificate anytime soon. But it did make me think about clouds for a bit, so there’s that. Maybe that was the whole point.
