Okay, first: how are a tree and fly similar? sheesh, I feel stupid now!
Cheryl - I also have a problem with the MMPI. I had to take it when I was a teenager - and the shrink said they could not validate my results because I had LIED! Huh?
Well, the question was something about "swearing" - I said I never swear.... and the doctor told me I had just said fuc% a million times to him. I said, "That's not swearing, that's cursing!!!" Sigh. Apparently, that is called swearing....but I grew up and it was called cursing. Swearing, to me, meant making statements like, "I swear....yadda yadda yadda" - which I never did.
The MMPI is one of those "biased" tests that relies on language based on a norm that hasn't been updated in eons.
Okay, not back to the fly and tree?
