neat little trick..

[bugjuice]

At the end of this message, you are asked a question.

Answer it immediately. Don't stop and think about it. And be honest.

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 (including back to me) 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 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















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.

[Colapop]

A black drill doesn't sound that healthy right now...

[Scorpygirl]

Nope said Yellow and spanner!!!! I knew I was not normal!!! :doobey: :blah:

[Scorpygirl]

No just don't let Dover see that answer!!!! :nya:

[mdb]

Are you colour blind or in the 2%?

[Colapop]

errr......this is no fuckin joke I though of a pink lawn mower????

am I sick?
No, just thinking of the wrong type of tool.

[cowpoos]

No just don't let Dover see that answer!!!! :nya:

[bugjuice]

[RT527]

Yup hammer for me too, although I chose green

[cowpoos]

yes. you're a homo.
no I'm not....your a silly dumb dumb....!!!!

[Ixion]

Uh, I thought a purple bradawl. As normal folk would. I think that statistic maybe only applies to the USA, they're a bit odd over there

MsTriumph - it's all to do with Word Association. Pychobabble. "What is the first word that comes to mind when I say..... " Fruit...... "Banana" Most people say "apple" so if you say "mango" you are out of the norm.

Load of P/T. I have been there!!!!

[paturoa]

I got tanned boobies.

You've got tanned bobbies OR your thought of tanned (as in colour) & bobbies (as in tool)

[Finn]

You've got tanned bobbies OR your thought of tanned (as in colour) & bobbies (as in tool)

Both young man :blip:

[cowpoos]

I got tanned boobies.

[paturoa]

[paturoa]

cowpoos - the little dot next 2 your name is showing red for offline but you are still posting - huh?

[SwanTiger]

Mine was Red. But it was a crowbar ...

[oldrider]

Well I admit it, I thought of a "RED HAMMER" and thought that's weird, this will stuff them up, BUT!!! Ha Ha Ha. :gob: John.

[cowpoos]

cowpoos - the little dot next 2 your name is showing red for offline but you are still posting - huh?
coz I'm clever bro.....secret squrril!!! shsssssh!!

[Wasp]

a rainbow chainsaw, i guess i got some issues.... happy thoughts happy thoughts

[sprocket]

lol i thought blue makita power drill

[Madness]

I got a matt black 3/4" drive 1-1/4" deep six-point impact socket.

[cowpoos]

I got a matt black 3/4" drive 1-1/4" deep six-point impact socket.
sounds kinky.....

[Madness]

Hold a card/paper with the numbers 1 2 3 4 written on one side...
Ask a person to choose a number (showing them the card)
90% or thereabouts will choose number 3.

The guy that showed me was an Ozzie used car dealer type. He had printed on the opposite: "9 out of 10 sexual deviants choose number 3. Hi, my name is ------- -------" His surname was the name of a fast red italian sprotscar too, sleezeball.

[The Beast]

I got a matt black 3/4" drive 1-1/4" deep six-point impact socket.

Shit, I got the same, but gun-metal silver...

[Madness]

Shit, I got the same, but gun-metal silver...

And I thought I was demented.
Gun-metal silver is usually a sign of high wear/use. Your probably not far away from cracking up under extreme torque.

[Sniper]

Green spanner????

[u4ea]

BLUE SPANNER..............wat the fak does that mean.................:gob:

[poorbastard]

green drill?

[James Deuce]

Umm, blue screwdriver.

[Fishy]

Hmmm, a silver pick axe.......

[Edbear]

Sounds like a bit more than 2% abnormal around here...:rofl:

[Str8 Jacket]

Umm, black screwdriver?!

[T.I.E]

i got the red, but though of a cresent

[bugjuice]

may be collectively, we are the 2%...??

[Mental Trousers]

blue screwdriver.

So 98% of people that did that silly little test are in the 2%??

[buellbabe]

that is god-damn spooky!
GREEN HAMMER 4 me

[bugjuice]

actually, the original email had heaps of space between the sums. It would have been a whole page by itself if I had left it. May be the space between them is screwing up the trick a bit..??

[Beemer]

I chose a red spanner - far more useful than a hammer!

I had done this before (but there are other versions that ask you to pick a colour and an animal) but last time I chose a blue spanner. Must like the spanners, huh!

[MikeyG]

I got a fluro-pink torque wrench.

But then I already knew I'm not normal

[T.I.E]

maybe most motorbike guys are all special. in that %2
well my mummy says i am.

[mops]

OMG WTF LOL !!11!!11!!!... i thought of red hammer !!!!!!

[kickingzebra]

Blue motorbike... Strangely like the one in my driveway... Which is weird, cause I have been phoning around in the last ten minutes to find a half inch 36 mm socket....
Mmm, tool.

[James Deuce]

OMG WTF LOL !!11!!11!!!... i thought of red hammer !!!!!!

Right. You're obviously normal. Put down the motorcycle and get back in that jap import cage.

[Goblin]

Blue screwdriver!

Don't think I got the maths right either.:pinch: Maths was never my strongest subject.

[Edbear]

I have been phoning around in the last ten minutes to find a half inch 36 mm socket....
Mmm, tool.





I sell tools! Even think I've got a red hammer on board!:doobey:

[MattRSK]

I thought Red hammer, but then i thought no wait i like blue, blue hammer. So i got confused and dont know what i was thinking.

[Mental Trousers]

Right. You're obviously normal. Put down the motorcycle and get back in that jap import cage.

And that there is quite possibly the answer. Motorcyclists aren't normal. If we were we'd all be drones that get around in SUV's.

[Phurrball]

Hmmmm. I got the red bit, but 'twas a red drill.

Does this mean I'm partly normal? :bye:

[Storm]

errr......this is no fuckin joke I though of a pink lawn mower????



am I sick?
Dont worry, I thought of a purple lawnmower
Holy shite, I think like Poos Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

[yungatart]

Thats just tooo scary- I am in the same 2% as Jim2, Mental trousers and Goblin- what are the odds of all of us thinking of a blue screwdriver?? I'm surely doomed now....

[paturoa]

If we were we'd all be drones that get around in SUV's.

Geez I must be farked cos I also own a SUV!

[jazbug5]

Umm, blue screwdriver.



Ditto... hey, didn't you get Che Guevara as well in that other pointless psychometric test recently..?

Eeek.

[James Deuce]

Err yes. So I CAN blame the Celtic heritage then?

[Coyote]

FUCKFUCKFUcKFUCK GET OUT OF MY HEAD!!!!!!!

[Coyote]

THE EVIL MYSTICS HIDING IN THE SHADOWS PLAGUE MY MIND!!!!!!!11


I'm not going to be able to close my eyes tonight

[oldguy]

yellow drill for me

[boomer]

I thought of 'Pink Dover' :bye:

[kickingzebra]

I sell tools! Even think I've got a red hammer on board!:doobey:

No way? Thats you in the snap on truck? If so I have passed you many a time!
Red hammers are gay, Estwing is the only way, and they have blue handles.

[Vagabond]

Silver Vernier!

[Edbear]

No way? Thats you in the snap on truck? If so I have passed you many a time!
Red hammers are gay, Estwing is the only way, and they have blue handles.






Snap-on is the competition, my friend! Way too expensive for what you get!:angry: 'Sides, I'm better looking than the Snap-on guy! Estwing's good, Whitehouse is really good, too..! But we got several brands, something like 14,000 product lines, 27 trucks, 5 divisions to the company and a thirty plus year history in NZ. NZ owned and operated. And red hammers are okay in my book!:yes: :killingme

[Kornholio]

I got a blue crescent :/

[kickingzebra]

Oh, My apologies for naming your competition.... I only saw the snap on guy once, and you are right, he was far too expensive. And he always used to stop halfway into the damn 80KMPH zone along from hatfeilds beach, just past the bridge. Always passing him!!
You must go too fast to pass. Tools with Pace!! I like it! Can you beat repco on the 18 dollar 36 mm socket I bought?! J/K Its too late, but maybe when I get taps, dies and deep sockets...

Builders love tools....

[riffer]

A black drill doesn't sound that healthy right now...

OMG that's freaky Colapop:gob:

You thought of EXACTLY the same thing as me!!!!

another 2%er...

[jazbug5]

Err yes. So I CAN blame the Celtic heritage then?

Can't we just stick to blaming the English as usual..?

[GSX-RJIM]

A red spanner what is that about then

[Goblin]

I got a blue crescent :/
Haha! My daughter got a blue crescent too.:yes:

[Jamezo]

Blue hammer, what can I say?

But those percentages are probably reversed.

[Qkchk]

Blue hammer - so am still 2%? :lol:

[Coyote]

But those percentages are probably reversed.
Why do you say that?

[Jamezo]

Why do you say that?
'cause only a few got red hammers.

still strange that it was so common a combination, but nothing like 98%

[Riff Raff]

Green hammer for me - so I guess I'm half normal.

Only thought of a hammer cos it's the most recent tool I've seen (for some reason WT has it on the bedside table on his side of the bed. Must remember to ask him why.)

[jazbug5]

Green hammer for me - so I guess I'm half normal.

Only thought of a hammer cos it's the most recent tool I've seen (for some reason WT has it on the bedside table on his side of the bed. Must remember to ask him why.)

Er... maybe he's afraid..?

[Ixion]

I keep a hammer beside the bed. For killing wetas.

[driftn]

yeah i got a blue spanner. missus got the red hammer though

[Dont_die_wondering]

blue wrench

[Jeremy]

Blue crowbar.

We all know that the crowbar is the best tool.

[BuFfY]

Blue hammer!!
I was thinking... they are so going to try to turn this around!!

[DEATH_INC.]

Yup hammer for me too, although I chose green
we're the same type of semi-normal...

[DEATH_INC.]

Green hammer for me - so I guess I'm half normal.
You too eh? now I'm worried....

[Magua]

Blue Spanner. :D

[UrbanMyth]

woot im in that 2 % then

[What?]

Fortunatley, I have never had the audacity to claim to be normal.
A 2%er, me. (not a 1%er, though - that would just be trite)

[The Pastor]

Blue hammer


Did anyone else have real trouble working out those sums!

[GN1NiteStnd]

Blue spade

Although i thought of blue nail first, and decided it wasnt even a tool.

[strayjuliet]

I thought of blue bike then realized a bike is not a tool, (I repeat a bike is NOT a tool) lol so then I got purple bandsaw, I guess I'm either sick in the head, or sick of not having a bike... :confused:


I'd say I'm sick of not having a bike.





:ride: <<<< I can't wait.

[Brownbikerbabe]

First I thought of blue hammer than realized blue high heels work just as well for knocking in those nails or what ever, right gals?.:bash: Sorry, feeling a bit uptight at work today.
