98% or 2%?
« on: February 12, 2009, 10:33:14 AM »
 
At the end of this message, you are asked a question.
Answer it immediately Don't stop and think about it.
Just say the first thing that pops into your mind.

This is a fun 'test'...AND kind of spooky at the same time!  Give it a try, then e-mail it around  and you'll see how many people you know fall into the same percentage as you.  Be sure to put in the subject line if you are among the 98% or the 2%.  You'll understand what that means after you finish taking the 'test.'

Now - just follow the instructions as quickly as possible.

Do not go to the next calculation before you have finished the previous one...

You do not ever need to write or remember the answers, just do it using your mind.

You'll be surprised.

Start:

How much are:
15 + 6












3 + 56




























89 + 2














12 + 53

































75 + 26






























25 + 52























63 + 32





























I know, calculations are hard work, but it's nearly over.


Come on, one more!

















123 + 5



































QUICK!  THINK ABOUT A COLOR AND A TOOL!


































Scroll further, to the bottom!


















A bit more . . .















You just thought about a red hammer, didn't you?



If this that not your answer, you are among the  2% of people who have a different, if not abnormal, mind.

98% of the folks would answer a red hammer while doing this exercise.

If you don't believe this, pass it around and you'll see.

Be sure to put it in the subject line whether you are among the 98% or the 2% and send to everyone, including the person who sent it to you.

I thought of a green hammer. So does that mean I am only partially abnormal? And if so which part?  rubschin:

I thought of a blue screwdriver. That could be because there is one on my desk, though.

Mother Wench says yellow screwdriver. Clearly mentalism is hereditary.

edited to add: Brother Wench said red hammer so my theory is bollocks!

Silver penknife (Like TMR's screwdriver it was on the desk)
I used to have a handle on life but it broke.
