"'Dump'... very interesting. Next?"
"A dead flower... [[Broken Bird|a bird with an injured wing]]... ''(incredulously)'' a chainsaw cutting through a wedding cake... an engagement ring that's been run over by a steamroller -- Jared, what are you doing?" }}

* A very old joke involves a man being shown a set of inkblots, and interpreting them all as pictures of people having sex. When the tester announces that he's clearly obsessed with sex, he says, "Me? You're the one with the collection of dirty pictures."
** ''[[Get Smart]]'' did a version of this joke.
** Parodied in [http://wondermark.com/395/ this] [[Wondermark]] strip.

Line 161 ⟶ 156:
* Used briefly in ''[[Hey Arnold!]]'' during Helga's session with a child psychologist in ''Helga On The Couch''. After seeing Arnold in three inkblots, [[Love Makes You Crazy|she grabs all the papers and frantically throws them out a window.]] Admittedly the ones she sees as Arnold are pretty hard ''not'' to see as Arnold.
* Used in an episode of ''[[Doug]]'' where Skeeter is given one after scoring very high on one of those Myers-Briggs type tests. He is given the option to skip ahead to college, but {{spoiler|chooses not to, because he doesn't fit in with the college crowd, who smoke and aren't fond of his air guitar.}}
