Blue dildo and a zucchini.

As far as abnormality goes, I own all y'all!

i said blue screwdriver too, but then i said potato for the second test.

its a chain lettter, so basicly aimed for the 'simple minded' pesants of the world... so i guess if we give them red hammer shaped carrots they'd be just dandy...

thefictionweliv

The math is really irrelevant its a game of percentages just naturally ask someone to think of their favorite number 1-10 the highest percentage of people pick 7.
blue wrench and carrot o.0

costello

blue screwdriver here too and my veggie was a beet! so odd that was the first thing to come to my mind. methinks the stats are a LITTLE off, if not i think we should all be sat down and studied :P

100% with Halx on this one.

Black screwdriver and green beans.

Incidentally, neither potatoes nor lettuce are vegetables

Me too, although I was half right on the first 1.

d*d

80% of statistics are made up on the spot, this is one of those common assossiation things, like think of a jungle animal - quick...... a lot of people will say "lion" lions don't even live in the jungle. For the record red spanner (so half right) and potato
although if i had to guess what most people would say, i would have said carrot

cooperricko

This is the answer! We all all somewhat skewed and beyond the normal. Don't believe ? How many normal people have you seen writing in the TFP?

My Result? A somewhat orangey shade of pink coloured post hole digger and a well roasted butternut pumpkin.

dobster

Thought of a red spanner (wrench) and a green Aubergine. (???!!!)

I think i'm part of the 98%, its just that my maths is shit.

And so is my vegetable recognition. (And typing, but I edited that out before you had a chance to comment...)

Hah! I thought of a red powerdrill

Does that put me in the 98% or 2%?

:::OshnSoul:::

no i got a pink wrench.......

filtherton

I want to know what they mean by "abnormal". Is it like abnormal in a child molesty kind of way, or abnormal in a "i like experimental jazz" kinda way?

tiberry

That's spooky - I was in the 2% for both as well and thought of:

A silver wrench and a potato.

Hmmm....

I hit both... 98% for me...


Oddly enough, the ONLY answers I've seen people give other than those are "blue screwdriver" which I've seen ehre several times, and "Tomato". It is interesting though...

FoolThemAll

blue wrench....looked at the responses before taking the second quiz

Its my understanding that this type of exercise is all about what areas of the brain you are using by doing the math problems. Its called a priming effect and, essentially, what is going on is that the neurons around the areas of the brain functioning during the math fire and prime the neurons around the area of the mind where other items are stored. One theory, I heard about this specific exercise is that the color red, the tool hammer, and the vegetable carrot tend to be the first specific item you learn as a child in their respective categories and that the math is meant to either prime the area associated to the earlier learning or to break down any thoughts in your day to day life that might otherwise pop up to biased the exercise (like if I used a screwdriver several hours before reading the quiz).

Oh yeah, I was 2% and 98%. I said squash on the second one, but I think thats cause its getting close to Halloween and I see them all over.

Zeraph

2% in both.

Thought of an orange wrench, and broccoli.

The stats are either wrong, or (not surprisingly) TFT has attracted "unique" individuals.

Charlatan

Blue Screwdriver...

2%. Blue Hammer. But then, i've always know I'm odd.

Side note, my room mate is also a loon. He thought of a red drill.

2% on both.... blue saw and a cucumber

roadkill

so are we in the 2% if we got the normal ones then?

Redjake

holy crap, I did the calculations as fast as possible and it was like "think of a color and a tool"

the VERY first thing that popped in my mind was a wall painted red and a claw hammer.

RED HAMMER


scrolled down to read "red hammer"


I am in awe..........

the more I think about this, the more weird it seems. I honestly thought of RED and HAMMER at the same time. This is just freaky. I wonder why it didn't work for the rest of you guys?

I probably got every single one of the math questions wrong. I answered as fast as I read the numbers.

Red Wrench. Orange.

Very cool little test, thank you.

taog

blue wrench and lettuce for me... 2% both times

TawG

ive done both of these before, but it didnt strike me untill they asked me about the things... then i remembered what the test was looking for and i automaticly put myself into the 98% group... lol!

before that i think i was somewhere inbetween...

planets

mouse, white (cos that's the colour of my cursor)
and weed. if that's a veggie....
