You're thinking of a carrot, right?
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 carrot when given this exercise. Freaky, huh?
This came from Joel
LIFES LITTLE PROBLEMS
Are you the weakest link?
Below are four (4) questions. You have to answer them instantly. You can't take your time, answer all of them immediately. OK? Let's find out just how clever you really are. Ready?
First Question: You are participating in
a race. You overtake the second person. What position are you in?
Answer: If you answered that you are first, then you are absolutely
wrong! If you overtake the second person and you take his place, you
are second! Try not to screw up in the next question. To answer the
second question, don't take as much time as you took for the first
question.
Second Question: If you overtake the last person, then you
are...?
Answer: If you answered that you are second to last, then you
are wrong again. Tell me, how can you overtake the LAST person?!
You're not very good at this are you?
Third Question: Very tricky
math! Note: This must be done in your head only. Do NOT use paper and
pencil or a calculator. Try it. Take 1000 and add 40 to it. Now add
another 1000.. Now add 30. Add another 1000. Now add 20. Now add
another 1000. Now add 10. What is the total? Did you get 5000?
The correct answer is actually 4100. Don't believe it? Check with your
calculator! Today is definitely not your day.
Maybe you will get the last question right?
Fourth Question: Mary's father has five daughters: 1. Nana, 2.
Nene, 3. Nini, 4. Nono. What is the name of the fifth daughter?
Answer: Nunu? NO! Of course not. Her name is Mary. Read the question
again.
KEEP THIS GOING TO FRUSTRATE THE "SMART PEOPLE" IN YOUR LIFE!
Sounds funny but it's true:
Remembering 9's
What's 9 x 7?
Use the 9-method! Hold out all 10 fingers, and lower
the 7th finger. There are 6 fingers to the left and 3 fingers on the
right.
The answer is 63!
