This is allegedly from an orthopaedic surgeon...........

This will boggle your mind and you will keep you trying over and over again to see if you can outsmart your foot, but, you can't. It's pre-programmed in your brain!

1. Without anyone watching you (they will think you are GOOFY.....)and while sitting at your desk in front of your computer, lift your right foot off the floor and make clockwise circles.

2. Now, while doing this, draw the number '6' in the air with your right hand. Your foot will change direction.

I told you so!!! And there's nothing you can do about it! We all know how stupid it is, but before the day is done you are going to try it again, if you've not already done so.

Try it on your friends to frustrate them too. I just did......

One of the girls in here just suggested this as a bit of stress management for me (pure exasperation is rampant this morning!)... yep, you guessed it - she be dead! :p

I've just walked in on one of the staff; looked like he was writing "666" in the air.... :D :p

whatever that 'don't remember to not think about this' nonsense from last week. I'll mark this as unallocated brain space and write over it shortly.

drummers can do this though.

ThingOne is also able to pull if off, but ThingTwo doesn't get half way through the "6" before his leg is flapping all over the place.... :D

it just started making figure 8's or something....wasn't normal at all, but my GIS tech's leg instantly started going counterclockwise.

It's a good thing they stuck us down in the basement where nobody can see us!

Possibly because of all the isolation exercises I have done but I had no problem with this. But then I exercise my ankles by writing my name with my feet.

Fun one tho- I will have to try it on friends.

What does it mean if I was easily able to do it? That my brain is wired wrong?

Or that Guinness has made me super-human? :^0 ;)

by charliespencer

it's not that it made it easier for you to do. It's that you're so blotto you just think you're doing it right...

who COULD beat this. Thought it was impossible since you're using the same side foot and hand.

Now I've learned something today. Time to go home.

Say "New York, Unique" fast three times.
I can do this from practice - can't ever get the Toyboat one. :D

That should drive them nuts for a bit....can't wait to just "casually" stroll in & start swinging my leg.

GG....what have you done? You probably brought the whole office to a standstill!! :)

You have to see the Engineering Dept....geez...Too funny!

They only know one way to do anything and they always ask for the [b]Bone Glue[/b] before starting anything.

One guy I know was rung up after hours by the Local Hospital with an Emergency pregnant woman in labor and the intern there wanted to know how to stop this from continuing. So he grabbed the Emergence Call Sheet and rang this guy up who has a similar name to the Gynie. His response was how the hell would I know but as a stop gap fill the Virgina with Bone Glue that should give you some breathing space till you get the right person.

Sort of hard to argue with the logic of that comment though it did seem a bot drastic to me. ;)
