One question IQ Test

One question IQ Test



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...

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

pair of sunglasses"

If you got this wrong -

please turn off your computer and call it a day.


I've got mine shutting down right now!

I was thinking, "why would a blind man need sunglasses"?

Some blind people where sunglasses because their eyes look a little different, also with sunglasses on it isn't obvious to others they are sightless. That's all I can figure anyway.

Ok.  But, isn't it more likely a sighted person says to the blind, "Here, put these on"?
And, it occurrs to me that a seeing eye dog, or a long white cane just might tip off a sighted person about an individual being blind despite the dark glasses?

And, why is it you wouldn't want others to know you are blind?  Perhaps there is a greater chance someone will toss you the keys to their vehicle.

 ;D ;D ;D

Which reminds me.  Did anyone else see the Top Gear (US) show where an actual blind man won a "drifting" competition against two other sighted young men, all of them driving Nissan 350Zs, I think?

Cheers,
