Do NOT scroll down
 

Or it'll ruin it, do this in your head then scroll down when it tells you to

Whats 1+5?

2+4?

3+3?

4+2?

5+1?



Now pick a vegetable, only go with literally the first one that springs in to your head


Scroll down ...
































Keep going ...























































you picked CARROT!

Re: Do NOT scroll down
 

No I didn't. It was a turnip.

Re: Do NOT scroll down
 

Lies and deceipt!

Re: Do NOT scroll down
 

I picked potato

Re: Do NOT scroll down
 

Spring onion.........your point being?

Re: Do NOT scroll down
 

Everyone else, literally EVERYONE that's seen it picked carrot, I think you both cheated ;)

Re: Do NOT scroll down
 

Think of a number between 1 and 10 .

Multply that number by 9.

If you have a two digit number now add the two digits together.

Now take the number you are left with and subtract 5 from it.

You are now left with your final number.

Correspond that number to a letter in the alphabet, so 1=a 2=b 3=c 4=d 5=e 6=f etc....

When you have your letter think of a country that starts with that letter. Okay remember that country.

Now take the second letter in the name of that country and think of the name of an animal that starts with that particular letter.

What is the colour of that animal?










































Grey?

Re: Do NOT scroll down
 

i admit it bif i thought of carrot and those things normally dont work on me.
and i got grey too

Re: Do NOT scroll down
 

Nope, Orange

Re: Do NOT scroll down
 

Heck I came up with Carrot too..

How come?

Re: Do NOT scroll down
 

Not sure, the only thing I can think of is that your brain correlates 6 with the number of letters in carrot.

Re: Do NOT scroll down
 

Then why was Brussels the first thing that SPROUTed into mine

Re: Do NOT scroll down
 

or maybe a carrot is a fallic symbol in the mind... and the six when said too much becomes sex??

Re: Do NOT scroll down
 

Or maybe you just have a dirty mind :D

Re: Do NOT scroll down
 

Why is it..... there's always carrots? :D

Re: Do NOT scroll down
 

i'm always right ;)

Re: Do NOT scroll down
 

Your not alone

Re: Do NOT scroll down
 

As for the animal one, the numerical answer is always 4
which gives D as the first letter of the Country
This gives us at least 5 possibilities
In alphabetical order I have
Denmark
Deutschland (Germany)
Djibouti
Dominica
Dominican Republic

So considering 2nd letters
we have E, J, O

Elk, Jackal, Orangutan are just some of the non-grey possible answers.

Re: Do NOT scroll down
 

By stage 3, everyone should have 9. So everyone should get to pick a country starting with 'D'. Denmark is the obvious (but not the only) choice. When choosing an animal beginning with 'E', most (but, yes, not all) will choose Elephant. Some are pink but most are grey. Yes, I know it doesn't work all the time but, hey, that's life ;)

Re: Do NOT scroll down
 

Perhaps because six rhymes with sticks. After saying six mentally a couple of times, you may associate it with sticks, which in turn is associated with carrot(s).

Re: Do NOT scroll down
 

I dunno - there's always one who has too act like a cabbage *ahem* :p:

Re: Do NOT scroll down
 

What about white elephants ;)

Re: Do NOT scroll down
 

you've thought this way tooo much.:erm:

Re: Do NOT scroll down
 

sounds like Nugget's having a jumble sale,
is there a lucky dip too ?

Re: Do NOT scroll down
 

Yep, and a tombola, but could somebody bake a cake for me? Oh, and any suggestions for the raffle - everybody seems to think that carrots are a good prize :)

Re: Do NOT scroll down
 

Nope got Cabbage, but did get grey so I'm half normal :confused:

Re: Do NOT scroll down
 

Carefull, you might get a cauliflower ear if you throw insults around like that :D

Re: Do NOT scroll down
 

I picked carrot :erm:

I have seen the other one before.

When asked to pick a country beginning with "D", 95%+ of people will pick Denmark. When asked to pick an Animal starting with "E", again 95%+ of people will choose Elephant. That's how it works, simple as that. :)

Re: Do NOT scroll down
 

Took me longer to type the post than to think about the question.
It just so happens yesterday I was compiling some more Q's for Nemmy, one of which was what is the Capital of Djibouti. Hence when I needed a country beginning with D, Denmark was not my first thought. :¬)

Re: Do NOT scroll down
 

i've never even heard of djibouti :dunce:

Re: Do NOT scroll down
 

You have to be careful what you do around vegetables, since Corn has ears, potatoes have eyes, and beans talk.

Was it just me, or did anyone else have the 'ha ha bonk book' as a child?

Re: Do NOT scroll down
 

sounds like a rude name for a childrens book :Yikes: ;)

Re: Do NOT scroll down
 

Tried it in the office, 2 out of 4 chose Carrot.

One said that if you get someone to count backwards from 100 & when they get to about 90 ask them to name a vegetable & its usually Carrot then too.

Something about the brain being busy calculating & Carrot is an easy vegetable to remember.

Either that or we are really descended from Rabbits, not Apes.

I picked Carrot
