Talking Sounds logical

Here's a one question IQ Test to help you decide how you should
spend the rest of your day......

There is a mute who wants to buy a toothbrush. By imitating

the action of brushing one's teeth, he successfully expresses

himself to the shopkeeper and the purchase is done.

Now if there is a blind man who wishes to buy a pair of

sunglasses, how should he express himself?

Think about it first before scrolling down for the answer...


don't peek






















































He opens his mouth and says. "I would like to buy a pair of
sunglasses."

If you got this wrong - please pack up your things, turn off your
Computer and call it a day.

I was laughing while scholling down knowing that if the answer was something other than his asking for it that today would be a rough one ....

Damn you buckdroper. Here I was making the classic hand glasses sign. Unfortunately, I dont think my boss would go for that. But I can surf F150online all day from my cube.

That 'joke' is FRAMED! The first adjective you read fine, mute, but the second one, blind, is overridden by the fact of 'expressing ones self': it builds that as your mindset.

besides, why can't the mute guy look around for a toothbrush; why does he need to mimick its action. It's not like he can't see.

All blind folks seem to wear dark sunglasses. Check out Ray Charles and Stevie Wonder, for just two examples.


That was a good one. I can't believe I fell for it as well...OK, maybe I can believe I fell for it.
