This Is So Cool!

by Carilyn on May 30, 2012

Okay, since I’m not running at the moment, I thought I’d post one of my favorite little personality tests. I love these! Let me know what you get!

At the end of this post, 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.

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

101

25 + 52

63 + 32

I know! Calculations are hard work,
but it’s nearly over..

Come on, one more! ….

123 + 5

128

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.

What did you get?

Happy Running!

KENT May 30, 2012 at 11:58 am: I ANSWERED A BLUE HAMMER – GO FIGURE! YOU HAVE TOO MUCH TIME ON YOUR HANDS RIGHT NOW. WHAT DID YOU GET? HOPE YOUR FEET GET BETTER SOON!
Allison May 30, 2012 at 12:11 pm: I thought of a yellow hammer! How cool!
Kate May 30, 2012 at 12:24 pm: Blue razor. Go figure. Of course, I had an 8 year old yammering in my ear about not letting him play Wii…
Char May 30, 2012 at 2:31 pm: That’s just spooked me right out. Yep, I got red hammer. Nice to know I’m kind of normal.
Marcia May 30, 2012 at 7:21 pm: Ok this is hilarious. I am clearly different…but we knew that right?
My answer was blue monkey wrench.
Anne May 31, 2012 at 12:30 am: Wow, how did they do that?!
SteveQ May 31, 2012 at 8:38 am: Blue drill. Not surprising, as I never test “normal,” but more so as I know how mentalist tricks work. The most common one has people go through a series of calculations that are forced to end up with the number four. They are then asked to come up with the letter of the alphabet that corresponds to (D) and a country staring with that letter, then to think of an animal that starts with the next letter of the alphabet. The magician then says, “But there ARE no elephants in Denmark!” (Actually, there are. In zoos.) Almost no one will come up with a country other than Denmark (Djibouti anyone?) or another animal (echidna?) because they don’t have enough familiarity with other possibilities to come up with one quickly.
Jeff Dinkin May 31, 2012 at 9:30 am: I guess I’m not normal. (well, I already knew that) – I thought of a Red Crescent Wrench. No idea why red, as I’ve never seen one……..
