I saw the duck first -- what does that mean?

I saw Duck. But it doesn't say what that means.

I saw a duck too. But where does it say what it means?

Hey, it doesn't say what it means.

It all means nothing, Lebowski. Nothing!

Duck, duck, goose rabbit.

Rabbit.

What does it mean if you saw a bunny? Cause that's what I saw. And I looked to see what it meant, but the site didn't say. Or did it?

Which side's the good side again?

Hemispheric dominance test to determine if you are left or right brained.
posted by getoffmylawn 10 August | 12:30
Left brain here.
No, left brain over there.
posted by getoffmylawn 10 August | 12:32
Ah, now there's the link what should have gone with your post title!
posted by Specklet 10 August | 12:33
You responded as a right brained person to 7 questions, and you responded as a left brained person to 11 questions.

I can't even decide on a brain half and stick to it.
posted by mike9322 10 August | 12:35
You responded as a right brained person to 9 questions, and you responded as a left brained person to 9 questions. According to the Hemispheric Dominance test, you use your left brain the most.

Whatever.
posted by Wolfdog 10 August | 12:37
Because the left brain can't see that 9 = 9?
posted by mike9322 10 August | 12:38
10 right and 8 left. I'm pretty even-brained.
posted by ferociouskitty 10 August | 12:40
Although, I must point out that recently, it's becoming obvious that the whole left-brained/right-brained thing is not very accurate. Scientist folks have discovered that the ways that the halves of the brain are used are different than previously thought.

The left brain is used when a person is dealing with something familiar, whether is be faces, math, music, what have you. The right side of the brain is used for new things: new thought processes, new objects... new stuff.

Children and teens spend a lot of time using their right brains. Old folks use the left brain more; and it's uncomfortable for us grown-ups to use the right side of the brain (it's all unfamiliar and shit). That's one of the reasons that older people complain about younger people's music. It's not that the music is bad, it's just unfamiliar, and hence uncomfortable.

True.

I saw the Virgin Mary. With celery.
posted by It's Raining Florence Henderson 10 August | 12:42
I can't even answer those questions. It seems I'm in the middle on every one. Does this mean I'm gay or something?

"That's one of the reasons that older people complain about younger people's music. It's not that the music is bad, it's just unfamiliar, and hence uncomfortable."

No. It's actually bad.
posted by It's Raining Florence Henderson 10 August | 12:43
Yes. Let's go buy omelet pans.
posted by jonmc 10 August | 12:43
"Does this mean I'm gay or something?"

That depends. Are you left-ball dominant, or right ball dominant? Or maybe just submissive?
posted by It's Raining Florence Henderson 10 August | 12:45
Well, I always have a tremendous time tarting it up at the somewhat zany balls the left hold (especially those animal fundraisers, I love all species), and I find it difficult to find a gown the ladies of the right woudn't call tawdry or tasteless, so maybe, left? I so don't know, though. The right has better hair.
posted by Hugh Janus 10 August | 12:55
i saw a bunny. We're still doing the bunny thing, right?

Oh yeah, and 9/9. I think with my corpus callosum.
posted by gaspode 10 August | 12:56
11 right, 7 left.
*sits erect to contemplate navel, sees bunny*
posted by danostuporstar 10 August | 12:59
So the bunny and the duck - what do those mean?

posted by danostuporstar 10 August | 13:03
Right 7, Left 11.
posted by matildaben 10 August | 13:05
I saw a bunny for a split second, then it switched to a duck, and now it's really hard to even imagine how on earth I saw a bunny.

I think my brain is mad at itself.

(And did anyone who scored high on right brainedness still get an analysis that made it sound like left-brained people are wonderful, right-brained people are random and need help? Or is that just my prejudice seeping into the reading?)

I like this one better.

Your Brain Usage Profile:

There's this duck/bunny too

I saw a mouse.

My left brain opresses my right. Stupid left brain.
posted by bonehead 10 August | 14:28
I saw the bunny first, though that could be because I focused on the eye first and then moved my eyes to the right because that's the way I read books. Saw the duck about 1/4 second later, and can swap between them.
Second test, I got 9/9 so I'm left and not balanced? I'd say I'm pretty unbalanced if I didn't like the test. i.e. "When you walk into a theater, classroom, or auditorium (...), which side do you prefer." My answer is movie theatre is usually centre. Anywhere else is dependent on the door I walk in, and the amount of people in the place (but it's always the edge where there's fewer people).
Third...
Auditory : 37%
Visual : 62%
Left : 61%
Right : 38%

ummmmm. 37% + 62% = 99%. Does that mean that I'm 1% crazy or what does it mean?

I saw a puffin.

Anybody up for getting their corpus callosum split?

*gets out "brain surgery for under fives" kit*
posted by warbaby 10 August | 14:40
The first test gave me a pretty even right/left split, not so much with the second:

Auditory : 46%
Visual : 53%
Left : 81%
Right : 18%

Yow. It also seems to think I should be an engineer. Which... again, not so much. I seem to be in linear mode today.
posted by occhiblu 10 August | 14:46
Saw a duck.

15 right, 3 left.

Auditory : 20%
Visual : 80%
Left : 29%
Right : 70%

There's 1% that apparently can't decide.

Having seen warbaby's basment, I've no trouble whatsoever in imagining all the tools laid out, ready to make adjustments to a victim's voulunteer's brain.

I took a much better test a few years ago that distinguished between Auditory, Visual, and Kinesthetic learning. I think I came out about 50 Visual, 40 Auditory, and 10 Kinesthetic on that one.

I saw the number 102 first. What do I win?

I hope I win the missing 1% of my brain back.
