Oh, and sorry for making this post so long… though I don’t think it really matters…

I didn’t think this was scary at all…

The number I thought of was 11 and the vegetable that came to my mind was… asparagus. :)
I guess this doesn’t work on those of us that belongs to the dark side… :ph34r:

:blink: :rolleyes:
I was caught in both “traps”…
Although I was trying to think of a vegetable I knew the english word for, and probably would have ended with another one if that wasn’t the case…
It’s still pretty amazing :)
(but of course not for those who choose otherwise)

(not to mention I’m not quite sober at the moment, don’t know if that counts)

jesus, that creeped me out.

when it was 7, it wasn’t instantaneous either. it was like ‘what? oh…uh, 7 then.’

the vegetable one was like ‘carr- no, banana. wait, that i- okay, fine, carrot. OH GOD LORD JESUS OH LRODDA A A’

so yeah it seems even if you THINK about something you’re still predisposed to certain answers

I was caught on the first one, saying 7… but the only vegetable I could think of was broccoli… :P

I thought of 6 and tomatos.
The CIA came and took me away. :)

I’ve thought about the number eight and the vegetable I thought about was lettuce

either I’m a rare genius or this thing is an hoax.

you choose :P

11 - Fennel

I believe in minorities saving mankind… :D

the 2%-club

didnt work with me either… but maybe this trick with the vegetable has to be in your native language. any germans here who picked gurke? :slight_smile:

and the thing with the “7” isn’t that scary at all… it’s a stupid trick… the text says “pick a numba between 12 and 5” and NOT “between 5 and 12”, if you get me… it’s the wrong way round and since you’re urged to do it fast, it implies 12-5=7.

yeah marc, me … freaky … I really picked 7 and gurke.

lol… so i am not alone :slight_smile:
i wonder what the connection between german and cucumbers is…? :))

The funny thing is that a friend told me the vegetable-thing worked 8 times in a row, me included… then of course, my braniac friend said “banana” and broke the trend… not that I can see how a banana is a vegetable, but whatever… :)

And yeah, I think it has to be done in “english mode”, if you know what I’m saying.

hmm, this didn’t work for me neither… 11 and lettuce

you all stop now: it is obvious that you’re trying this test after having read the whole thread, so you’re saying “I don’t have to think 7, I don’t have to think 7, I don’t have to think 7” for a whole hour before beginning it :rolleyes:

edit:
now I’m a “Big GrandDaddy Member”!? :unsure:
damn… years pass and weight raises :D

I can say that I did not read any replys before doing the test, and I still do not see why the obvious answers shall be 7 and carrot… the easiest way to pick a number between 12 and 5 is either to take the first or the last number of the range (11 or 6) so I think my answer was more obvious than to pick 7, but obviously not ;). And I do not even like carrots and do not have a clue why 98% of all people chose that vegetable… ;)

Well I picked 7 and cucumber…And I´m swedish so cucumber is gurka in my language. So maybe If your swedish or german you will be more likly to pick cucumber?

Here is another test that you can do.

Say these numbers to yourself, they will be twice…And don´t cheat.

Was the color blue?

Was the tool a hammer?

5 + THIS kind of lettuce :)
I guess I’m used to live among the 2% Club people from the very beginning… :mellow:

is 5 realy an allowed number in the range between 5 and 12? ;) and btw, that was the strangest kind of lettuce I’ve ever seen.

My first guess was 12
and the last was: cucumber

I belong to the 2% woho! :)
