Amazing test....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 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

5 + 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 TOOL AND A COLOR!

scroll down when finished.......

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,

Blue screwdriver too! Snap!

rampy · « **Reply #4 on:** May 11, 2005, 11:06:08 am »

a red socket, not sure why...

*shrug* eat it 2%

Now where's the science behind this? i.e. how does it "work"?

or is red and hammer just commonly come to people's minds, or does the math have something to do with it?

American's don't say spanner? Crap, everyone at work must think I'm a complete idiot. They probably say "Oh look, here comes Mr.Spanner again" everytime I walk by.

Yeah, my wife was telling me about seeing that video recently. Pretty funny. I doubt if it did any serious damage. That'll teach him to blow is flaming shots out before shooting them.

I think it's very possible that this group would be on the outside of this study. It's a DIY crowd.

Blue Hammer.

Maybe I said blue because of the BYOAC color scheme...

I guess my brain is "ABI NORMAL"

hyiu · « **Reply #20 on:** May 11, 2005, 12:27:48 pm »

sorry... somehow I was thinking about my router....
and its silver/greyish color...

hammer is never in my mind...

I guess I'm also the minority in the survey...
(but good thing is... we're the majority in this form !!!!... )

You actually have to riddle wrong. It was suppose to say blue screwdriver, not Red Hammer.

first off I said funner as in more fun. and yes I know funner is not a word.

and secondly I deeply apologise for mentioning a fuscia hot glue gun wich I can tell so deeply offended your femininity and will enshure your hatred of men for life.

The results definitely support the theory that BYOACers fall well within the "Abby Normal" range.

2% ---my bottom---! Looks like you have them backwards considerring most people didnt think of a red hammer. I thought of a blue lepricaun, dont ask where it came from, I didnt see it say "tool" so I just used the first word that came to my mind

RayB · « **Reply #33 on:** May 11, 2005, 04:57:51 pm »

blue sickle.

DrewKaree · « **Reply #34 on:** May 11, 2005, 05:47:12 pm »

What does that make me?

Saw, DeWalt...so naturally, the color was.....

Do we have to split out the 2% even more?

Thought of yellow drill, but 99% of my tools are DeWalt, and I think they just look cool.
