I thought this was cute. :)


How  do you put a giraffe into a refrigerator?

Stop and think about it  and decide on your answer before you scroll down.

The  correct answer is: Open the refrigerator, put in the giraffe, and close the  door. This question tests whether you tend to do simple things in an overly  complicated way.

2  How do you put an elephant into a refrigerator?

Did  you say, Open the refrigerator, put in the elephant, and close the  refrigerator?

Wrong Answer.

Correct Answer: Open the  refrigerator, take out the giraffe, put in the elephant and close the door.  This tests your ability to think through the repercussions of your previous  actions.

3.  The Lion King is hosting an animal conference. All the animals attend .... Except one. Which animal does  not attend?

Correct  Answer : The Elephant. The elephant is in the refrigerator. You just put him  in there. This tests your memory. Okay, even if you did not answer the first  three questions correctly, you still have one more chance to show your true  abilities.

4. There is a river  you must cross but it is used by crocodiles, and  
You do not have a boat. How do you manage it?

Correct  Answer:? You jump into the river and swim across. Have you not been listening?  All the crocodiles are attending the Animal Meeting. This tests whether you learn quickly from your mistakes.

According to Anderson Consulting  Worldwide, around 90% of the professionals they tested got all questions  wrong, but many preschoolers got several correct answers. Anderson Consulting  says this conclusively disproves the theory that most professionals have the  brains of a four-year-old.

Send  this out to frustrate all of your smart friends.
