Subliminal IQ Test #1
Shitposts are welcome

Your soul is about to reincarnate onto planet earth as a human being in the year 2020. Circumstances of life, such as your place of birth, race/ethnicity, sex/gender, parents et cetera, are random and unknown to you.
However, you have been informed by the divine council that you will be born absolutely healthy, but - due to bad karma from the past life - with one exception. You get the opportunity to choose between:

1. being born with only one fully functional arm (other arm is entirely missing).
2. being born with both arms, but with no thumbs respectively.

If you refuse to choose, you will be born with no arms at all.
What will you choose and why?

A while ago I was working on a little project regarding the intellectual capabilities of the human mind. And because this forum has rarely noticeable activity, and boredom had a critical hit on me at that particular day, I thought I will expand this topic to this forum for entertainment.

Obviously, this "test" wasn't supposed to be taken seriously since it's entirely made up and is not directly related to the common definition of IQ. The title is misleading in that regard. Mea culpa.

The question was intentionally formulated in a way, that it has:
1. no answer you could look up somewhere to provoke independent thought.
2. no apparent similarities to common real life issues to stimulate productive thinking instead of reproductive thinking.
3. no right, nor wrong answers to allow enough space for creative (and funny) solutions.

That said, I was curious which ideas would show up and which thought patterns would generate certain ideas. Mainly the thought patterns were of higher interest. But I have to admit, the question is considerably difficult to answer, which is probably one reason why no answers were given - as expected.

Maybe in the future I will give some examples to the different possible approaches to solving problems and generating new/creative ideas, based on the issue above.

That's an important step in the right direction. With combined effort we can find and rescue Slaughter125 from the claws of rand0mgirl.

Recently I stumbled upon this compilation of army recruitment videos. USA had me laughing for a while, but watch for yourself.



I don't speak Chinese, so I can't really tell what they are talking about, but it's most likely the same illogical gibberish and blatant propaganda followed by pretty pictures as the Russian ad.
However, by smashing feminism, diversity and homosexuality into one single video, USA managed to take it to another level. I can't even tell which foul propaganda is worse: this ad or the same nonsense in the Eurovision Song Contest 2021.
What has this world come to?

Omg ... the US one is a catastrophe ... this world becomes too soft ...

The Chinese one is simple: "Join the marines!" ,-)

The russian one you could translate, is not it?

The russian one you could translate, is not it?

Well ... to some extend. My russian isn't fluent, but I tried my best:


Translation of the Russian Recruitment Ad

This ... is the first day of your new life.
What was yesterday - does not matter.
Who you were before - nobody cares about it anymore.
What is important now, ... is who you will be ... today.

*music starts playing*

What do you know about yourself? What are you capable of?
These questions may be left unanswered, but would you be able to sleep well?
Understand yourself, learn the limits of your abilities.
To hell with limits! Are you ready to push yourself?
Until exhaustion! Every day!
Pain will temper you! Scars are daily routine!
It is you, who decided to prove something to yourself.
The commander is merely here so that you can see an enemy within him.
Because without enemies, there is no battle. And without a battle, there is no victory.
But in reality ... the main enemy is you. ... Yesterday's ... you.
Your mission is to track down the enemy, catch up with him, surpass him, become better than him and return ... as a winner.

Because tomorrow will be the first day of your new life.
