Venn diagram of emotions

Slide Content

The slide represents a Venn diagram that conceptualizes emotions as overlapping areas between three states: "short-lived happiness," "prolonged suffering," and "sudden rage." Short-lived happiness is exemplified by "Drinking too much tequila," symbolizing a temporary and fleeting joy. Sudden rage is depicted with "Scrolling through your social media news feed" or "Stubbing a toe, twice," suggesting immediate but brief anger. Prolonged suffering encapsulates "Being a football fan," implying a continuous emotional investment with potential for disappointment.

Graphical Look

• Three overlapping translucent circles in yellow, purple, and blue hues with dashed outlines.
• Yellow circle: Labeled "short-lived happiness" with a smiley icon.
• Purple circle: Labeled "sudden rage" with an angry icon.
• Blue circle: Labeled "prolonged suffering" with a sad icon.
• Overlapping areas creating different tints and an area where all three intersect.
• Examples are written adjacent to each circle correlating with the emotion.
• Plain, off-white background enhancing the colors.
• Modern, clean font for the text.

The overall visual is bright, colorful, and engaging, using the familiar format of a Venn diagram to present a comedic take on emotional states. The icons and labels are clearly legible, complementing the central theme.
