Here is a test... I got 19
The average person only gets 7 right. This is based on
U.S. & CDN info, so use all lobes of your brain. This can be more difficult than it looks - it just shows how little most of us really see! There are 27 questions about things we see every day or have known about all our lives. How many can you get right? These little simple questions are harder than you think -- it just shows you how little we pay attention to the commonplace things of life. Put your thinking caps on. No cheating! No looking around! No getting out of your chair! No using anything on or in your desk or computer! Can you beat 20?? (The average is 7) Write down your answers and then check your answers (on the bottom) only AFTER completing all the questions. REMEMBER - NO CHEATING!!! -- BE HONEST!!! That means no looking at anything on your desk...Then, before you pass this on to your friends, change the number on the subject line to show how many you got correct. Forward to your friends and also back to the one who sent it to you. LET'S JUST SEE HOW OBSERVANT YOU REALLY ARE. Here we go! 1. On a standard traffic light, is the green on the top or bottom? 2. How many states are there in the USA? (Don't laugh, some people don't know) 3. In which hand is the Statue of Liberty's torch? 4. What six colors are on the classic Campbell's soup label? 5. What two numbers on the telephone dial don't have letters by them? 6. When you walk does your left arm swing with your right or left leg? 7. How many matches are in a standard pack? 8. On the United States flag is the top stripe red or white? 9. What is the lowest number on the FM dial? 10. Which way does water go down the drain,counter or clockwise? 11. Which way does a "no smoking" sign's slash run? 12. How many channels on a VHF TV dial? 13. On which side of a women's blouse are the buttons? 14. Which way do fans rotate? 15. What is on the back of a Canadian dime? 16. How many sides does a stop sign have? 17. Do books have even-numbered pages on the right or left side? 18. How many lug nuts are on a standard car wheel? 19. How many sides are there on a standard pencil? 20. Sleepy, Happy, Sneezy, Grumpy, Dopey, Doc. Who's missing? 21. How many hot dog buns are in a standard package? 22. On which playing card is the card maker's trademark? 23. On which side of a Venetian blind is the cord that adjusts the opening between the slats? 24. On the back of a Canadian $1 coin, what is in the center? 25. There are 12 buttons on a touch tone phone.

I got 16 correct. A few of them I'd contest, or were just plain dumb. The Campbells soup can, what I should know that? The "which way does a fan rotate", that's another dumb one, depend on which way the blades are angled, does it have to rotate a certain direction? What about a ceiling fan? They can reverse.

18/27.
I'm not sure that I believe that all fans rotate in the same direction. I certainly did not know what is on any Canadian coins! Two down right there. |

I got twenty also.
I cant believe someone got the soup one right either? Whats a canadien coin? Am I suppose to have ever seen one? Fans do go in both directions. Very interesting test though, kinda bumbed I didnt get the womens blouse one right, made me feel kinda GAY (not that theres anything wrong with that!)- surprised there were no SEINFELD questions. |
