Got this from my sister - WEIRD!
Note: 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 post your "score"; you'll see how many people you know fall into the same percentage as you. I'm in the 98% group. 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 is:

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





















Stop.. NOW 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 is not your answer, you are among 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 do not believe this, pass it around and you'll see.
 
Great! I thought of a Blue Wrench!

Further validation of the claims that I'm a looney.

Haha ... I thought of a blue wrench too!!! Wonder what other interests we have in common!
 
And I thought yellow saw. We're all a bunch of looneys /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazyeyes.gif
 
thought about my grey Delta bandsaw...my wife would say that's par for the course
 
I thought of a blue screwdriver, one of those craftsman phillips jobbers. Guess I am a loon.
 
T thought of a green lathe. Just on more proof that I am nuts. I'll be checking myself in tomorrow...or is that yesterday. I can never keep those two straight.
 
I thought about a yellow duct strap tool.
Its the only brightly colored non power tool I use regularly. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
 
Hmmm... I thought about a cold beer. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thirsty.gif

But I guess cold isn't really a color, is it? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
 
I thought of a red hammer (probably the one in my 'Handy Andy' tool kit I got for Christmas in 1956). At least I'm normal.
 
Being that this is the british forum I thought of "red" because of my mom's red '68 Midget that I am always using my tools on, and a 7/16" Craftsman wrench which is about the only tool you ever really need to work on a Midget! I think my results were tainted by the forum /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif
 
I thought " BLUE HAMMER" Guess Im weird..

Then again so are Lucas electronics. EH /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/patriot.gif
 
I got a blue torque wrench.

How is one supposed to come up with a red hammer exactly?

Beats me! I just passed it on. When I did the exercise, I came up with red hammer without thinking about it. I was surprised at the 98% figure. But after reading these posts, guess I'm in the 2% after all! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazyeyes.gif

Well at least two people on the forum are normal. Or does this mean we have t get rid of them now as they don't fit well with the rest of us abby normal types.
