How exactly does this work and am I the weirdo that doesn’t see anything other than blobs?

My understanding (though admittedly not a psychologist) is that the test is believed to be useful in detecting certain underlying psychological disorders that someone could otherwise have learned how to hide, like knowing how to fake empathy for example. The belief from those who support the test is the “correct” answer isn’t known to those individuals and can more easily catch them giving honest answers.
There are many detractors of the test though for many reasons, one of those being that with the internet, the most common images used are out there, as well as “good” and “bad” responses. The test can also be influenced by both verbal and non-verbal cues from the person administering the test.
Most of the images just look like indiscernible random blobs to me as well.
