Lol, theres something wrong with me, i couldn't think of a vegtable. Nothing popped up. On the second test I thought power drill and blue.

I invalidated my results for the first test because my midn thinks slower so I decided to read the entire post before I realized the relevance of it. However on the second one I thought Blue Wrench, where Wrench was the first word and then blue.

I had an idea of why maybe people say carrot with the first test.the word six is only one vowel ahead of sex, and when people are saying it quickly in their minds maybe they are thinking sex because it sounds very similar when thinking it in the mind. Therefore as soon as they are told to think of a vegetable their mind is still fresh on sex so they associate a vegetable that would resemble a sexual organ? As far as the tools one, I have absolutely no idea.

Good point DYeps.

What do you mean "your mind works slower" though?

Neither test got me. Cucumber first (which could also go with the Phallic thoughts of DYeps) and grey wrench second.

Didnt get my parents either.

I mean like im slow... When I am told to do something I tend to do just the opposite I dont know. Like rather than going along with the first experiment I just went ahead to read the rest of the post to understand everything first but not realizing I may void the experiment. Im just a slow thinker.

I said corn, and then a purple rake... do rakes count as tools?

This is creepy... it worked on three of my friends.

I don't the internet version works as great as the one on one version. I tried using 6 and 90% got carrot.

I think we tell carrot because it is the vegetable we know from the beginning. I tried it on some chinese friends and got cabbage.

I'm a two percenter on both tests, but I kinda think the idea is to make most people feel that way. Can anyone provide any data to prove that any one answer has a ninety-eight percent rate of occurance? Is there a reason to believe that ninety-eight percent of people wouldn't name a carrot when asked to name a vegetable, without the math test?

You got me, the first thing that popped into my head was carrot. Freaked me out when I saw the answer was carrot.
