This is a test for Smart People.....I have determined that you qualify.

Don't cheat..good luck

The following short quiz consists of 4 questions and will tell you whether you are qualified to be a professional. Scroll down for each answer. The questions are NOT that difficult. But don't scroll down UNTIL you have answered the question!

1. How do you put a giraffe into a refrigerator?

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 conference. 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, I did and they call themselves; Professionals. lmao :wink:

PS: Just the fact that I put it here for you should make you feel good.

How do you shoot a blue elephant?

With a Blue elephant gun.

How do you shoot a pink elephant?

No, not with a pink elephant gun. You force it to hold it's breath until it turns blue, then shoot it with the blue elephant gun.

Try the "Riddle of the Sphinx".

In ancient Egypt, a traveller had to pass thru a valley guarded by the Sphinx, a creature with the body of a lion, the wings of an eagle, and the head of a woman.

The traveller was told by the creature, "If you can answer my question, you can pass, if not, You are my dinner tonight. Otherwise, you may withdraw and return whence you came."

The traveller said, "I accept your challenge."

The Sphinx crouched down, ready to spring, and said," What walks on 4 legs at the dawn, then walks on 2 legs at mid day, and walks on 3 legs at the twilight?"

(I was going to leave it unanswered until tomorrow, but I may not be able to get online, so I'll answer now)

The traveller smiled, and answered, "A man. He crawls on all fours as an infant, in the dawn of his life. In the middle of his life, at his mid-day, he walks erect on his 2 legs, and in his twilight, as an elder, he uses a staff or cane, that he might be said to have 3 legs".

The Sphinx growled her displeasure as to having been correctly answered, but let him pass.
