Quick thinking exercise

blue wrench, the big bulky adjustable kind plummers use. interestingly enough, the wrench was a chiped rusty red, but the color i thought of was blue.



it is possible that i was not doing this exersise fast enough, but i dont think so.

Another Grey Spanner...................

So whats the psych behind all this?

Certainly in the Uk a wrench is not the same as a spanner though it can be used for the same job - generally wrenches are adjustable whereas spanners are specic sizes you can also have ring spanners as well as normal spanners.

I'd say that all wrenches are spanners, but not all spanners are wrenches. I was thinking of the simple fixed-sized spanner, though. I looked up 'spanner' and 'wrench' and neither is marked as British or US only, so it looks like 'spanner' is a word the Americans have forgotten but everyone else still uses.

I got an orange wrench...surprising that the ones not with a hammer have a wrench...

I was definitely picturing an adjustable one, al la FL, but cleaner.

Any psyche major gonna tell me what that means?
Maybe I'm a homosexual nerd at heart... :'(

blue hammer... crap!

Red Wrench... or erm... spanner?

so why does this work that way?

fyi i also said red hammer as well as the other three guys i showed it to

Blue Hammer

Am I the only one who thought of a black spade?

Does anyone know why a red hammer is associated with addition??

Has anyone ever even SEEN a red hammer???

I chose a hammer, but for the life of me couldn't think of a colour until YELLOW popped into my head.

(good thing I don't have a stack of red stickies on my desk, or I'd be on of the 98%, too).

blue crowbar

I thought of an orange wrench. The band tool uses a wrench as their symbol. Orange was just random I guess.
