Default Are You In The 98% ?

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, then post your answer and tell others to have a go and you'll
see how many people you know fall into the same percentage as you.

Be sure to put in your post your answer and let us know 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, tell others about this post and see what they answer.

Be sure to put in your post your answer and let us know if you are among the 98% or the 2%.
