How observant are you?

Post by Buzzman25 »

This is based on U.S. info, so use all lobes of your brain. This can
be more difficult than it looks - it just shows how little most of us
really see!

The average person only gets 7 right.

There are 25 questions about things we see every day or have
known about all our lives. How many can you get right?
These little simple questions are harder than you think-- it just
shows you how little we pay attention to the commonplace
things of life.


Put your thinking caps on. No cheating! No looking around! No

getting out of your chair! No using anything on or in your desk or

computer!



Can you beat 11?? (The average is 7) Write down your answers

and check answers (on the bottom) AFTER completing all the

questions.

REMEMBER - NO CHEATING!!!

BE HONEST!!! That means no looking at your phone or anything

on your desk...



Then, before you pass this on to your friends, change the

number on the subject line to show how many you got correct.

Forward to your friends and also back to the one who sent it to

you.



LET'S JUST SEE HOW OBSERVANT YOU REALLY ARE. - If not, just

have fun!

22 but the fan one is a bit questionable because some fans you can reverse the direction so it depends on if your thinking house fan or ceiling fan.
