Here is a fun little test

[jimmytee]

Copied this from another board, Trade related board HVAC-Talk . Thought some would find this amusing . By the way, my wife was in the 98% while I fell into the 2%
NOTE: This is freaky.....you have got to try it!



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 (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.

Be sure to put in the subject line if you are among the 98% or the 2% and send to everyone, including the person that sent it to s in the 98% while I fell to the 2%. Give it a try.

  What the H*** ! ? 

Impossible!

  I've never even SEEN a red hammer much less thought of one UNTIL NOW!! 

Okay, where are the 'Shrinks' on this forum.  Tell me why it works. 

[Bighead]

Didn't work here :uglystupid2:I hid say hammer but it was green

[Super Santa]

I had an orange hammer.  Guess I too am different from normal.

[musclehead]

Didn't work here :uglystupid2:I hid say hammer but it was green

what? me too, it was a green hammer

the "heads" are thinking alike...

[Hook#3287]

2%  I thought of a yellow (Dewalt) cordless circular saw.

It said "Tool" not "Hand Tool"

[POPS 57]

Blue Hammer here. But I already new I'm not right in the head. 

[Jess Tolbirt]

black hammer here

[musclehead]

the trend seems to be hammer, but why?

[John Schmidt]

Guess I'm really out there, I thought of the color black and a cordless drill. Neither red or hammer ever entered my alleged mind, however I'm not going to spend time trying to figure that out. We're all happy right where we are!!!   

[Raverez]

Don't know why I thought of a blue wrench.


Sum Ting Wong?

[old2soon]

Blue Screwdriver-BUT on the other hand I KNOW I'm a screwy loouee anywho.!!   Do this in any way shape or form have something to do with the fact we all STILL ride our 2 and 3 wheel chariots??   RIDE SAFE.

Blue Hammer #4

[Fla. Jim]

Red screwdriver here!

[YoungPUP]

Blue Screwdriver, But it took me about 5 min to do all the math.  Never was my strong point.  Always come up with 3+3=chair....

[R J]

I came up with a dirty air torque wrench.

Probably cause that was the last tool in my hand yesterday.

I was trying to help my son put a new front end on the 2013 KIA Forte he bought out of a salvage yard.

We neither one have figured out why it was totaled by the Insurance Company.

He called anout 15 minutes ago saing he had it all together and was headed for the Body Shop to get it painted this week.

Vehicle had 795 miles on it when he bought it, right now he has $3,100 in it.   Paint job will add to that, but that is not a bad price to pay for a 1 year old car.

[9Ball]

another blue screwdriver here

[musclehead]

I'm very suspect about the 2% thingy,  

only two of us so far have said red hammer. not looking real strong ,statistically speaking, for the 98ers

you would think the first color coming to mind would be a primary color, how many would think of mauve, or fuscia or some wild chartuese 

and we tend I guess to think in simple terms when in a hurry to the type of tool, nothing more basic then a hammer....

[klb]

Blue Screwdriver also.

[bigguy]

Black Hammer.

[jimmytee]

  I windernif it's a Valkyrie or VRCC thing, like I said, my wife said red hammer, but I thought blue wrench. Seems there are a lot of 2% ers here.

[Patrick]

2% er. How could anyone think about a red hammer !?  Where would that notion come from ?  Hmm, interesting.

[iliveforcurves]

Red cordless electric drill.  I'm starting to think it is the 2% that think of a red hammer.

[Scoop171]

Red screwdriver here!

[Otus]

Blue wrench. Guess we are 2%ers

[The emperor has no clothes]

[The emperor has no clothes]

Didn't work here :uglystupid2:I hid say hammer but it was green

Whoa now it's getting spooky

[Jess from VA]

Pink talleywhacker (hey, it's a tool). 

[R J]

Pink talleywhacker (hey, it's a tool). 

It might be a tool but if it is let me have you lay it on a piece of rail road track and we give it a whack with a 5# mallet.    If'n ya holler, it is not a tool.   Simple as that.

[GeoffreyB]

Blue Hammer #5   Maybe there's a trend here
