� This is really weird.

At the end of this, 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 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. �Just one more...


123 + 5


QUICK! THINK ABOUT A TOOL AND A COLOR!


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 you.�

For the record, that bloody test almost got me. I thought of a pink hammer [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Ivelliis 01-23-2005 02:57 PM

I was like "Erm, well, erm, red hammer!" *scroll down*

Wow! That is really cool, good find!

shamrock_uk 01-23-2005 02:58 PM

Wow! I got a red fork (as in gardening fork) so the colour bit was right! Pink hammer, eh? That reminds me of Bruenor [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]

Beaumanoir 01-23-2005 02:58 PM

OOohoh.. I thought Red Spanner [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Blunderbuss 01-23-2005 03:02 PM

Erm.. I must be in that 2%...

Illumina Drathiran'ar 01-23-2005 03:38 PM

Guess I'm abnormal.

Vaskez 01-23-2005 03:41 PM

Heh, I thought hammer red, but it's not unusual since the tool you always get as a kid (toy version) is a hammer, and red is like the most common colour in a lot of things: cars, blood, tomato ketchup :D

philip 01-23-2005 03:45 PM

I chose blue hammer so I'm with the 2%

uss 01-23-2005 03:47 PM

Dace De'Briago 01-23-2005 05:42 PM

This is very similar to the 666 carrot test.

Although this doesnt involve carrots.

Kakero 01-23-2005 05:45 PM

I was thinking of something else. :rolleyes:

wellard 01-23-2005 06:31 PM

Red drill for me.


Can I drill you about this?

SomeGuy 01-23-2005 06:36 PM

Jerry_Seinfeld 01-23-2005 06:55 PM

Marty4 01-23-2005 07:01 PM

Blue wrench. I don't know if putting this on IW was the best idea for an accurate test ;)

Sir Goulum 01-23-2005 07:05 PM

Blue hammer here.

Seems like blue is the second most popular color.

Variol (Farseer) Elmwood 01-23-2005 07:11 PM

Blue wrench?

Sodomatic Goat 01-24-2005 05:43 AM

I thought of a hammer, but it was brown, probably because of the brown background in the forum...

Bahamut 01-24-2005 06:23 AM

I am glad to be part of the 2% :D

Intrepid 01-24-2005 09:01 AM

I got hammer, red,

bah, stupid normal brain

Lady Sedai 01-24-2005 09:45 AM

My first thought was a yellow hammer.

So I'm only a *bit* warped.

But then, I knew that already. ;) [img]tongue.gif[/img]

And Absynthe, dearest...It's easy enough to get the orange juice to be black if you leave it out long enough. [img]tongue.gif[/img] (ewwwwwwww! [img]tongue.gif[/img] )

Sigmar 01-24-2005 10:08 AM

Pink Hammer

Cloudbringer 01-24-2005 10:47 AM

Hehe....diff color, diff tool... BWAHAHAHAHA!

Purple screwdriver, anyone? :D

RevRuby 01-24-2005 12:37 PM

unfortunatly i first thought of a tool on adobe illustrator, but changed quickly to a hammer cause i knew that wasn't the kid of tool they wanted. oh yeh it was red.

Digitalblast 01-24-2005 01:34 PM

I said red wrench.

SilentThief 01-24-2005 01:55 PM

So there are three people who thought "hammer" and "blue" (counting me).

I never woulda imagined ANYbody else with a mindset similar to mine...

Philip?
Sir Goulum?

lets take over the world with our evil trinity!!!
