snappieT

I'm in the 2%, i said blue hammer.

Wahey: I'm officially abnormally minded!

Jim

Oh god, its so big.

I thought of Red and Spanner btw.

spoon

i thought of a blue spade.
um... from the looks of it, its not quite 98% that think red hammer.

Lenny

I thought of blue screwdriver,
suprised i didn't say hammer with all the hammering going on around me

Callan

another blue screwdriver.

ixoy

Blue and saw because I wanna see 'Saw' the movie and because saws are gruesome and fun (cutting versus the more banal bludgeoning).

Flukey

This one, like a few others, has been going around for years. It won't be long until we see someone put it up again or the one that is meant to scare you with the thing suddenly appearing and screeching at you. Maybe someone should hit him with a red hammer!

fozzle

Red screwdriver for me. So does boardsy attract the nation's oddballs, or is it just a pile of rubbish?

gobby

yellow spanner...

skywalker

green hammer here.

is anyone here in the 98%? goes to show how "normal" the boards populous is.

Both.

Cake Fiend

I thought of a blue screwdriver as well, probably because I use a blue screwdriver every day of the week.

Dr. Loon

Orange spanner. Stupid test. Proves nothing.

keu

jim I got a red spanner too

uh..no wait I got a blue spanner.

Kêrmêttê

I thought of a purple shovel.

I feel like such a FREAK!!!!! :rolleyes:

stoopid dumb tests... mumble... mumble... mutter...

woosaysdan

i actually said red hammer some strange reason!!

this either means something very very deep about us, or it's complete bollox.

BrookieD

Red Spanner for me,
strange

fragile

I thought of a red hammer

/me hangs head in shame at being so unimaginative

narommy

phenom

Got a green hammer also. Good test. altough Most people have gotten a different answer than a red hammer!

MrNuked

Derren Brown is safe enough methinks.

A wallop in the face with a shovel would probably be worse. His face would probably look even more scary, but he wouldn't be trying to scare people any more.

Interesting to note, that as yet, you're the only person who picked purple.

Freak.

I did too...

embee

Weh.....

I thought of an orange chainsaw.....

JBoyle4eva

Why the hell did I think of a bisc brown hammer? Good test though, but I'm beginning to think there's a different ratio to 98%:2% as a lot of users seem to have different answers

Seams like a load of sh*t tbh

PurpleFistMixer

I thought black screwdriver...
And yeah I realise black isn't a colour to some people. But you're just jealous of my differentness!

Hagar

A silver hacksaw.

Are the men in white coats coming for me?
Is it too late to change what's left of my mind?
No. No. Don't. I will think of a red hammer next time. I will. I really will. I swear.
Please don't. Your'e hurting me. Stop. Stop........

Smellyirishman

Ye Black spanner here!

Im completely original!

Seems like there is a high % of blue screwdrivers or blue somethings...

I would like to see the reasoning of the "test" though, as clearly it has not worked in this case

{EDIT} maybe the reasoning is that whenever we do maths we think of the soviets or somethin! Although wasnt that a golden hammer? :S

Me too, we're so like-minded heh

gnu

Red hammer, that's spooky ... how does that work?

Smellyirishman

Clearly it doesnt!
You might find that if you send it off to say 20 friends, the People who get it will e-mail you back saying:
"OMG the test pwnz me"

The rest will not reply, and that suggests a 100% success, just a possibility

gnu

Ok so it seems to be a minority who conformed to red hammer here but I got a few ppl here to do it and 4 out of 5 got red hammer! The only one who didn't get it was a guy and be picked black chainsaw which sounds v manly (he thinks). Could it be that girls don't know very many tools or summat?

LegacyUser

without being sexist, given 50 % of the population is female ie name a tool automatic response = hammer, then you are asked on the spot to name a colour, its going to be a primary colour, you will get alot of red hammers

gnu

Gee, and I thought I was more complex than that lol

frodi

Blue hammer.

Part of the 2%?

Most here seemed to get a variation of red/blue hammer/screwdriver.

If you get half of red hammer are you only half mad?

Sev

I thought blue spanner.. I seriously doubt its 98%

NeoSlicerZ

grey wrench for me
