MIND GAME
2% or 98%
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?

I told you this was FREAKY!! 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.
Freaky, huh?
Keep this message going. This one is actually worth sending
on to others. Forward it to people you know so they can find
out if they are usual or unusual.
 
I think this thread was done before

just a few weeks ago!

I did it again anyway - and I'm slightly different still!

I have Denmark - but it's a kitten and a nectarine!

sorry just got sent it 10mins ago and it got me spot on - which freaked me out a bit !!
 
ok well I got a kitten in denmark and couldn't think of a fruit.

although orange is naranja in espanol, right?

so I guess I got an orange after all.

but come one, with all the kitty avs around this place, how on earth was I supposed to come up with kangaroo?
 
I think the kitten and

Australian/New Zealand influence here at Lit is going to mess up the 98%/2% thing!!!
 
OK OK

It was just me - I mean I am so predicatble

but fuck it scared me for a minute

I totally got a kangaroo in Denmark eating an orange. Clearly, I am so predictable.

What is wrong with a fucking Kangaroo !!!!

Free yourself. Get out of your pouch and climb a tree and eat eucalyptus leaves with VixenShe, Diablogrl and me!
 
Are you sure that the authors of this Mind Game weren't a bit biased in their assumption that 98% of the population would think like they do. I mean, the fact that they're Aussie transplants living in Denmark, who also enjoy vacationing in Portugal, should have some bearing on their prediction of the results of their experiment.

Yeah well I dont think Lit truly represents the average person - bearing in mind the results here- I suppose it has a European bias as it hopes you go for Dennmark 1st - as oppossed to Deuchland !!

Ok Koala/kangaroo 50/50 choice

anyway it worked for me and you ;)
 
I am pretty sure Deutschland is Europe...showing off some sterling geography skills there, Gordy boy...

Here's another way to freak out someone....think of a geometric shape inside another geometric shape. Once you have it picked, don't tell me what it is, just tell me when you have it picked. I will then guess what you picked.
