    Are you one of the 2% Nation?
    Do you think in straight lines or tangents? This freaky little test will prove it incontrovertibly, once and for all.... You may very well believe your thought processes work according to your own free will. But you'd be wrong. Just like the most simple lifeforms, all our brains work to the same basic programming. And each of us is as entirely predictable as the other. Take this short test and see the proof for yourself. There's no trick or surprise. Just follow these instructions, and answer the questions one at a time and as quickly as you can. Scroll down the screen to the next question only when you've completed the previous one (but not too fast, or you might miss something)........ What is:





























    1+5





























    2+4





























    3+3





























    4+2





























    5+1





























    Now repeat saying the number 6 to yourself as fast as you can for 15 seconds. Then scroll down.





























    QUICK!!! THINK OF A VEGETABLE! Now scroll down





























    Keep going...





























    Keep going!





























    You're thinking of a carrot, right?

    If not, you're among the 2% of the population whose minds are synaptically free enough to think of something else. 98% of people will answer with carrot when given this exercise.

    Freaky, huh?

    Bloody Cabbage............it's stuck in my head...........no carrots .... the carrots are evil....
    they have taken control of your brains.

    Those 2% of us are the only ones safe. If you keep thinking of Cabbage, you will be safe.

    We must try to stop the carrots from taking over!!!!

    Cabbage is the safe option. Carrots control your brains.........

    Viva ya Resistance...Viva la Carrots....i meant Cabbage...... Their trying to take control now..............Nooooooooooooooooo

    :eek: Carrot

    I thought of potato, and then I thought. Wait a minute, thats not a fruit. Banana.

    When I saw carrot I finally thought, ah its looking for a vegetable. Ok then, potato. Ah-ha!

    Victory is mine! :)
