Is it so?

[Sir. Velmu]

Now I have this weird friend, whit whom I for some reason always end up arguing (in the good spirit, of course) about the most little things you can imagine. Usually I don't bother my head much with all the things he claims, but this one intrests me for some reason. So:

Is it possible for someone to describe someone's outlook without ever actually seeing the person him/herself or even hearing his/her voice, observations based fully on what the one has wrote about himself and his opinions? Personally, this seem very deranged, but for the sake of "science", I though I could give it a try.
Here's one more spammy game for you guys to play. I'd assume none of you have seen a pic from me, but I've somehow managed to hit the "post reply"- button more than 1.000 times in these forums.

Please, describe how I look.

Skinny and pale, with a white man's afro. Possibly glasses.

 

[Highelfwarrior]

Big, black bald guy. 

 

[Ilex]

A formless swirling mass?

 

[Sir. Velmu]

A formless swirling mass?

Yeah, who wouldn't.

 

[Mike Hawk]

Blond, mushroom haircut, 1,95 m, 80 kg

 

[Cleaning agent]

Odd.

It's impossible - I mean, someone may guess more or less correctly, but that would be luck.

It's like saying I know the exact contents of a room I've never seen before, based on the smell emanating from inside... I mean, there might be a dead body in there, or it might just be bad cheese.

Your "friend" is probably a compulsive liar.

Higly depends on the amount of info that person has left available. Impossible it's not, as people have caught wolves in the Werewolf game also.


(But the reason I doubt his example was, becasue the guy he claimed to exist had draw pictures of several people with only some internet forums as a source. Of course, my friend didn't have any link to show that would support his claim )

slim, tall and smiling.

 

[Oubliette]

Naked.

 

[Sir. Velmu]

So, what do you look like?

I'll tell you later, I'd still like to fish more opinions. So far the results have been average Fun Stuff quality, which was expected.

 

[Tarrantmw]

I'm going to assume a bit shorter than average, but stocky.

Like a llama or alpaca?
