A mind test for Carl

Carrera RSR · 02-13-2009, 03:30 PM

MIND GAME

This is strange...can you figure it out?

Are you the 2% or 98% of the population?

Follow the instructions! NO PEEKING AHEAD!

* Do the following exercise, guaranteed to raise an eyebrow.

* There's no trick or surprise.

* Just follow these instructions, and answer the questions one at a time
and as quickly as you can!

* Again, as quickly as you can but don't advance until you've done each
of
them ... really.

* Now, scroll down (but not too fast, you might miss something

Think of a number from 1 to 10

Multiply that number by 9

!

If the number is a 2-digit number, add the digits together

Now subtract 5

Determine which letter in the alphabet corresponds to the number you ended
up with

(example: 1=a, 2=B, 3=c,etc.)

Think of a country that starts with that letter

Remember the last letter of the name of that country

Think of the name of an animal that starts with that letter

Remember the last letter in the name of that animal

!

Think of the name of a fruit that starts with that letter

Are you thinking of a Kangaroo in Denmark eating an Orange ?

If not, you're among the 2% of the population whose minds are different enough to think
of something else.

98% of people will answer with kangaroos in Denmark when given this exercise.

Spontaious (sp) is the key to these mind games, I think the key is not to think about it?

I got a pissed up kangaroo eating an orange in Xanadu, sharing a joint on the no drugs thread with Carl and a large diesel Porsche with a front engined attitude that clearly pisses of Oli and Porscha. Maybe it's time to lay off the Jack Daniels...
