Who says they do? An anonymous email chain-letter with no source?

No I thought of red hammer. I know these things work I just don't know exactly why. I answered the question focused only on it and without any distraction and answered instantly red hammer. The reason is not apparent to me and it makes me curious. I understand about associations, I think rather well, but see none to red hammer. It is likely that red is probably the first color most people name when asked and likely that hammer is the first tool they think of but it is still curious as to why that would be.

I had a hard time thinking of a tool that was all one color.. so I ended up selecting a rusted rake that had a brownish coloration.

That's what most of the other 2% pick.

Really.. a brown rusted rake.. well I'll be..

Us INFJ's sure know how to pick em... But, if I were in China would anyone there pick a brown rusted rake or would they pick something Chineseish which I can't speak so I don't know how to say it let alone write it down.. I doubt it would work on them anyway.

We should start a squad.

I thought of a red hammer but I got the first test all right. I am curious as to whether there is a realtionship between the math and the answer or if red hammer is always what people say. The interesting thing is that hammers aren't particularly red.

Math questions like that are used in psychology questions to interfere with whatever you have in your short-term memory. It's there to "clear" your mind.

I too thought of a blue hammer.
