A simple 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.

Good one. My wife and I will both go back to bed now. Perhaps a little sleep will make us smarter.

What the hell is a blind guy doing buying sunglasses, shouldn't his Optometrist give him some.

Yeah, I read this and said, "Trick question. Why would a blind guy need sunglasses?"

I can answer that one! Blind people almost always wear sunglasses (like Ray Charles!). It's mainly a dignity thing, their eyes look strange (assuming they still have eyes) and they want to hide them so that insensitive people don't ask questions and stare at them. Also, they may not be 100% blind, and though they cant see, light still effects the eyes (close your eyes and then look directly at a bright light through your eyelids...uncomfortable huh?).

Yeah, I didn't say I was right. I just feel more stupider.

OOOOkay now i really feel dumb. My answer was for the blind man to make a motion of someone putting glasses on...... Completely overlooked the fact that it was a MUTE that made a MOTION for a tooth brush cause he couldnt speak. I shall go sit in a corner now and stare at a spider. :*(
