Just stumbled upon this. Had seen it a long time ago, but had forgotten about it. Follow the instructions and let us know if it worked for you.

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 page down...

QUICK!!! THINK OF A VEGETABLE!

Say it out loud!

Then page down.

You're thinking of a CARROT right?

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

==> Wish I could remember where I just copied this from but I have no clue!

I thought immediately of "carrot," but Steven and I both live in the Ozarks, so it could be something in the water, I guess!

Results from my office:

2 - Carrots
1 - Tomato (It's a fruit, DUH!)
2 - Squash (Squash?)
1 - Potato (???)

and, the weirdest one of all . . .

1 - Turnip!!!!

However, these were the results of the exercise in an insurance office. We all know insurance people are warped by definition (or else we'd all be telemarketers or something else useful), so this should only go to prove the validity of the exercise from a reverse perspective!
