Which of these two shapes best describes your personality and work ethic? Write a 3 paragraph explaining why.

Ok:

a 3 paragraph explaining why

Nailed it

I’ll pretend like that was intentionally written that way as a form of satire

"I have no personality. I smell of the rotting flesh that your life will become if you don't give me a job and, in fact, you wallet, your family, and your whole life. I will lay eggs in your mouth as you sleep, and you will turn into me from the inside, and you will know nothing but the beautiful exultation of infinite pain."

My answer:

I only see a single white rectangular shape with holes, I don't think this particular shape describe in any way my personality or work ethic. 3 paragraphs seems way too much to talk about a white shape.

We all say bouba, but it's really kiki

I would say my work ethic is mostly kiki. How you interpret that is up to you.

"Kiki in Kiki's Delivery Service does work hard. But she's also an animated character. Do you feel like an animated character? Invent an interpretive dance to show your response to this question, but stage it in zero gravity so that your feet make no sound as they do not hit the ground."

Bouba and Kiki! I haven't seen those two in ages. I heard they had a kid. Total waste of a gender reveal party. Kid constantly subverted all expectations.
