Oh dear I had a sinking feeling that somebody would take this seriously.
They are not "personality types." The purpose of the video is to imagine what a human cat would act like, and what a human dog would act like. That is all. You are not supposed to watch the video and say "I want a girlfriend like this" or "I want one like that" or "I am more like the cat girlfriend" or "I am more like the dog one."You can do that if you want, but the point of the humour is supposed to be to laugh at how funny it is when two humans pretend to be animals.
The woman turning round and round trying to reach the tag on the back of her dress is supposed to represent a dog chasing its own tail. It's a
joke. No "personality types" implied at all. As I said, you will only understand the video if you are familiar with the behaviours of both cats and dogs.
Here is another video where the actors imagine what it would be like if your friends were a cat and a dog. Again, they are not trying to imply that there are two "personality types" of friends, and that all people fall into one category or the other. Rather, they are imagining what it would be like if animals were human. Real humans do not act like the people in the video. Clearly, no human friend would eat another friend's vomit (or at least, I'd like to hope not)! Warning: the "cat friend" in the video does quite a good (gross) impression of a cat vomiting.
I just found these videos recently and thought I'd share them to give the rest of you a laugh, that's all.
