98%.
Got this e-mail from my mom, and since I hate sending chain mail or forwarding things to people, I thought I'd post it here instead. It's fun! I'm gonna try to format it so that it works on LJ the way it's intended to work in an e-mail, so pardon the loooooong entry. Actually, I'll just cut the main entry part. Hrhr, i r smrt.
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, reply to let me know what percentage you are, then e-mail it around (including back to me) post it in your journal if you want to, 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 post it in your own journal and you'll see. Be sure to put in the subject line if you are among the 98% or the 2%.
So now my subject line makes sense. ;D
Okay, so it's not all that cool, but still kinda fun, yeah? :(?
