Maybe you have seen this before, I did a couple years ago but a friend sent it to me yesterday and I found it every bit as amazing now as I did then!
This is weird...
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 skip or 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 out!

Okay .... Green spanner which came out of muddy brown grey stuff! ;D ;D
I bet you there are some psychological implications to all of this! :D

Blue Wrench.
Are you sure about this 98% thing?
-
I guess this 98% thing does not apply to His "peculiar people!"
Now I am wondering about my own status......... ???
Peace,
Joe
P.S. It might not be 98% but others who have taken this "test" far and away choose red hammer, I suspect reading replies before taking the test could have an effect on the result. ;)
-
I thought green wrench. I'd never seen this one before today! My family has always said I've always been "different". I feel I'm in some good company now at least! Yay.
-
Blue saw!!
POOL
What was the first thing you saw in your mind's eye??? A swimming pool, a cue stick/table, or the very word pool ?
That also has a high percentage of picture vs word.
-
Silver wrench. Ha! I'm a weirdo. :P
-
Guess I am just to predicable..."red hammer" for me...!!!!

Hey folks,
I just wondered how many of you actually scrolled down doing all the math calculations before either answering or reading previous answers.......
Because I just might have figured out how this works, doing math in your head can definitely make someone "see red" and want to smash something with a hammer! ;)
Peace,
Joe
-
smash something with a hammer! ;)
Peace,
Joe
Which is usually my thumb or index finger. ::) :'(

Then you see red even more vividly!
Great point Patrick, I can certainly appreciate that.
Peace Brother,

Hey Joe,
I scrolled down doing all the math calculations one after the other. And I haven't read any of the other posts, nor answered, until I finished with that, and imagined a tool in my head; which was a silver wrench. Heh.
I guess I'm in that 2% category.
Peace,

Hi Sorin,
Like I said before this may not work as well with the Lord's "peculiar people" and since I scored with the 98% it kind of made me think about my own status! ;)

All that math reminded me that there are three types of people in the world:
Those who understand math, and those who don't. ;)
-
I said "BLUE WRENCH".
I guess the two most popular colors are blue and red and the two most common tools are a wrench and a hammer...sooooo....lol
My wife said "Black Screw-driver"....YIKES!
