Have you read the comments? They're gold dust.

It took me a whole second to figure it out. I must admit that it was clever. My disbelief in pink unicorns must have made me see right through it.Added by edit.The comments, I think, are a lot more amusing than the test itself.Added by edit again.I just read some more comments. Are people really this gullible? It was amusing at first, but then there are some people that claim to be professionals that made me flinch to read their comments.Edited by Tazmanius Devilus, : No reason given.Edited by Tazmanius Devilus, : No reason given.

Occasionally, owing to the deficiency of the English language, I have used he/him/his meaning he or she/him or her/his or her in order to avoid awkwardness of style.

​

He, him, and his are not intended as exclusively masculine pronouns. They may refer to either sex or to both sexes!

I saw this a year or so ago. It did take me 3 or 4 tries to figure out what he was doing.I was enjoying the comments too but you're right: a warning to e v e r y b o d y! We all have some of what a once-upon-a-time colleague of mine called "brain farts".

The comments are a hoot! I especially like the ones that claimed that the trick didn't work. Hee hee.

I could tell you what I've read about evolution, the big-bang, super-universes, quantum foam, and all that stuff. Eventually you'd ask a question I can't answer, then I'd have to go look it up. Even If I had the time for that shit, in the end you'd ask a question science hasn't answered yet. So let's save time and skip ahead to "I don't know." -- jhuger

Some of the comments say that the experiment GOT IT WRONG!!People are so stupid.
