Who wants to test if they're normal!

Asked by rock4ever (1866points) April 18th, 2011

DO NOT SCROLL DOWN
Apparently if you don’t answer correctly you’re not normal…..
Anyway the definition of normal and debates about what normal is doesn’t matter because it’s just a game.
Do not scroll down until you’re done.
What is 1+5
2+4
3+3
Now quick think of a vegetable!

I bet most of you were thinking carrot, weren’t you?
If not you’re apparently not normal.
And by the way a tomato is not a vegetable.

Of course, I knew all along that I was not normal, lol!

chyna's avatar

I was thinking of corn.

Blackberry's avatar

I actually thought of a carrot :(

rock4ever's avatar

Why the frowny face? You’re normal!!!!!

yankeetooter's avatar

Who wants to be normal, @rock4ever ? What’s the fun in that?

Blackberry's avatar

Yeah, normal is boring lol. Plus, I don’t like feeling predictable :)

rock4ever's avatar

Meh, if you really lost your normality then you would appreciate it more. ;)

“Penis” was actually the first word to come to mind, and no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t think of a vegetable. Not even a carrot. The word “penis” just kept screaming in my brain… so loudly that I couldn’t even force my mind to conceive of a vegetable, or fruit, or herb, or legume, or anything other than penis.

I guess that means I’m crazy.

aprilsimnel's avatar

I thought of celery.

And I thought this was going to be some variation of “If your hand is bigger than your face, then you’ve got…”

lucillelucillelucille's avatar

A carrot dressed as a cowboy. ;)

Blackberry's avatar

@Fiddle_Playing_Creole_Bastard Lol!

I actually thought of the word “fruit”, but the first vegetable that came to mind was a carrot.

Michael_Huntington's avatar

@Fiddle_Playing_Creole_Bastard Reminds me of a quote from Shakespeare: “Your mind is tossing on the ocean of dicks”

TexasDude's avatar

@Blackberry, lol, that’s pretty gnarly. I did the test again I know, I know, results would be skewed, but I don’t care and I said “Squash” this time.

@Michael_Huntington, I <3 Shakespeare.

Berserker's avatar

I thought of a pickle. :/

rock4ever's avatar

Um… I talk to some very strange people I guess..! People I know in person mostly said carrot. Well I guess your strangeness is why I like you guys!

Berserker's avatar

@rock4ever I know of another normalcy test that’s a bit like that, let me know if you allow me to hijack your thread with it. :D

rock4ever's avatar

Go for it! Give me as many as you can find!

mrmijunte's avatar

What does six have to do with a carrot? I thought of onion.

Berserker's avatar

Okay, so for those who want to take it. Pick the first colour that comes to mind, then quickly think of a construction tool. I’ll wait a bit before telling you if you’re normal or not.

mrmijunte's avatar

blue hammer

rock4ever's avatar

Orange hammer

chyna's avatar

Orange jackhammer.

ddude1116's avatar

I stumbled onto this exact game on StumbleUpon just a bit ago….

mrmijunte's avatar

i actually thought of channel locks but could not remember the name in english until now

rock4ever's avatar

@mrmijunte most people subconsciously think six they look for a rhyme and think carrot sticks. Onions, that is the first time I’ve heard that one.

mrmijunte's avatar

oh, i guess english has to be your first language to come to that conclusion

rock4ever's avatar

It’s been a little bit. Tell us what it means!

Jeruba's avatar

I thought of celery too. And not for any reason at all.

rock4ever's avatar

Maybe because celery sticks just like carrot sticks.

Christopher Reeve

Blackberry's avatar

@poisonedantidote Lol! Not cool…....Ok I’m just kidding, I laughed a little .

rock4ever's avatar

@Symbeline what does it mean?

Berserker's avatar

Well, most people will say red, and hammer. So most of you are at least 50% normal lol. The first time I took this, I said green hammer. XD

I don’t really know why red hammer dictates normalcy though…blood everywhere when you smash some fuck over the noggin’? Beats meh.

rock4ever's avatar

I got another one.
Read ALL instructions first
Put your hands flat on a table.
Lift them about 6 in. and at an equal height.
Close your eyes.
Now imagine a huge weight pulling your right hand down.
It weights 100 pounds.
You can’t resist and struggle to keep it up
It pulls harder and harder
it’s heavier and heavier every moment
Imagine your left hand
It is light
tied to helium balloons
it lifts up
higher and higher.
lighter
it weighs nothing
Now open your eyes.
Look at your hands

rock4ever's avatar

Where are your hands now?

Berserker's avatar

They were at the same height each, same as before I closed my eyes and imagined all that stuff.

mrmijunte's avatar

I have another game. Men imagine Scarlett Johanson, Women imagine Brad Pitt, close your eyes. Where are your hands now?

Blackberry's avatar

@mrmijunte They’re in my nose.

Cruiser's avatar

I actually thought carrot and boy is my therapist going to be disappointed when I tell her I no longer need her services. ;)

Berserker's avatar

Hey you said I could keep em comin’...so this one is not really a normalcy test. It’s an optical illusion. If you haven’t seen it yet, that is. However, I was so amazed by this one that I showed a lot of people…everyone always says the same thing, but one guy…gave a really fucked up answer lol.
So, just follow the instructions, and tell me what you see.

The Test

rock4ever's avatar

The hands thing is how ever much your hands move apart is how much imagination you have.

Berserker's avatar

Oh I have absolutely NO imagination, I always knew that. :D

rock4ever's avatar

The first time I ever saw that I flipped out!!! I was like holy Jesus!!!! What the…!!!!!

rock4ever's avatar

Stare at it for 60 seconds and you can see it many different (i find fascinating) ways.

Berserker's avatar

Sixty seconds? Okay, let me try.

EDIT-Naah…I still see King Arthur. I mean…

ratboy's avatar

I thought of a carrot. I also saw the miraculous tortilla I’ve so often read about.

TexasDude's avatar

@rock4ever, my hands are on my keyboard and mouse… It said “read all instructions first” and then asked where my hands are…

KateTheGreat's avatar

What’s normal? Yeah, I thought of Terri Shiavo.

WillWorkForChocolate's avatar

I thought of a cucumber, actually.

And I don’t need any sort of test to tell me that I’m not normal; I’ve know it for years! I’m abbynormal!

Winters's avatar

Lettuce. Like I needed anyone to tell me that I’m not normal. lol

roundsquare's avatar

Asparagus
Blue chainsaw

I like this one a lot. Which way is it spinning?

Facade's avatar

Zucchini

Bellatrix's avatar

I thought potato too @Simone_De_Beauvoir.

ucme's avatar

I thought of Stephen Hawking…....yeah, Abbie Normal that’s me XD

verycole's avatar

Haha,very funny.Of course I was not thinking about carrots.:)))

diavolobella's avatar

Pumpkin. I must really be a freak.

MilkyWay's avatar

I thought cucumber.
Before answering this question though, I already knew I wasn’t normal.

MilkyWay's avatar

@Symbeline Oh my gosh! I’m still seeing his face on the screen as I type this! : 0

MilkyWay's avatar

@roundsquare At first for a few secs it was clockwise, then anti-clockwise…..?

pshizzle's avatar

Tomatoes are vegetables! Scientifically no, but we all have come to know a tomato as a vegetable!

pshizzle's avatar

Did you know that pickles are technically cucumbers?

MysticRain's avatar

Tomatoes! And @rock4ever It is a vegtable!

pshizzle's avatar

@MysticRain Right!? @rock4ever Is just a “scientist”.

rock4ever's avatar

@MysticRain We got into a huge debate at your house the other week and you like almost killed me because I didn’t agree that it was a fruit!!!!!!!!!! Now you tell me it’s a vegetable! No scientifically it’s a fruit. It is known as a vegetable because it tastes like one!!!!!

pshizzle's avatar

@rock4ever How can something “taste” like a veggie? They all taste different!

WillWorkForChocolate's avatar

@pshizzle Cuz you wouldn’t put tomato in your fruit salad, but you put tomatoes in veggie salads all the time!!

rock4ever's avatar

Why did I let you two know my user name? This is suppose to be my place where I’m completely anonymous.

pshizzle's avatar

@rock4ever I don’t know you…....

rock4ever's avatar

@pshizzle I’m going to beat you senseless!

WillWorkForChocolate's avatar

Isn’t there some weird “rule” thing that says “if it has seeds, it’s a fruit?” Wouldn’t that make cucumbers and peppers fruits also?

rock4ever's avatar

I think so.

pshizzle's avatar

@WillWorkForChocolate Yes, that is the rule. @rock4ever You’re bluffing.

rock4ever's avatar

@pshizzle really, you think so? Really want to test that?

MilkyWay's avatar

Fight, fight , fight , fight, fight.

rock4ever's avatar

I already beat him up. Thumb wars, bloody knuckles, and a shin attack!

pshizzle's avatar

@rock4ever You’re full of the stuff that makes the grass green!

KateTheGreat's avatar

Oh dear Cthulu, so many unrelated responses! xD

Berserker's avatar

Bloody knuckles is awesome. I can’t believe someone hasn’t made a horror movie of that, yet.

rock4ever's avatar

@KatetheGreat Meh that’s fine though. It’s my thread about normality and everything that has been said, says a lot about it.
@Symbeline I know right.
@pshizzle you piss me off! Go fly to the moon!
So yeah if anyone has anymore normality/psych tests feel free to share.

laineybug's avatar

I am definitely not normal, but then, I already knew that. My vegetable was squash, and my color tool was a pink saw. The thingy was spinning clock wise. I’m a weirdo. :-)

MRSHINYSHOES's avatar

@Fiddle_Playing_Creole_Bastard Um, that isn’t a vegetable my friend.

disenchanted_poisongirl's avatar

I thought of an onion with big eyes.

the tool was a black screwdriver

I saw a dog with long ears

Berserker's avatar

Anybody ever watch Naked Lunch? What was that all about?
