I am also stealing this from hca:
Say you were introducing me to a new person - blind date, new friend, family member, who knows. And you wanted them to have some idea of what kind of person I am, but you can't actually tell them in so many words. Instead, you have to give them a box, with a dozen things (or less--hca's edit) in it for them to ponder over. What would you put in the box? No cheating - you're not allowed to include things such as links to your livejournal or mine.
What would you put in a box to represent me?
