Right brained or left brained?

Check it out. Which one are you?

(Seen on FridayCities. I am a day-dreaming right-brainer with no logic or mathematical skills, natch. Can't believe that ANYBODY can see her going anti-clockwise, though apparently if you focus you can change her direction.)

Yeah, I'm the same. I think the rest of them are lying in order to mess with our heads.

Right brainer here too. If you squint through your fingers and exercise a colossal force of will then you can get her to change direction. Sometimes.

"Fantasy based"

Yup, that's me all right!

QE said...

I'm not convinced (by any of it).

The foreshortening on her outstretched leg definitely suggests a particular direction of rotation. Then it's a question of whether you are viewing it from above or below the plane described by her foot, and I doubt that was what they were after.

It's like telling which hemisphere you're in by which way the water goes: it depends on the shape of the basin much more than anything else.

Maybe I'm just annoyed that it called me a right-brainer ;-)

This is absolute bollocks! She's going clockwise! That's the direction she's going in!

I mean, what are we saying here? Left brained people can't tell the time or use roundabouts?

*nnnnng*

Sorry about that. Sorry, everyone. Sorry.

I did try to concentrate and make her go the other way, but I kept getting distracted by her nipples.

Sorry.

Anti-clockwise.

I don't see how anyone can see her going clockwise.

Other than that, I get the same problem as Tim.

First saw this a couple of weeks back

I can make it go both ways. Best way to do it is to look at it from the corner of your eye and then slowly turn your head back to face it.

She does have great nips though. :D

Blimey, that's quite odd. She was definitely going clockwise but then I tried rad's trick - suddenly she's going anti-clockwise - and now she won't go the other way!

the whales said...

Oh, now she's going clockwise again...

Geoff said...

I've come home and now the bitch is spinning the other way.

Anti-clockwise.

Del said...

She was clockwise to begin with. Then I managed to change her direction simply through sheer force of will. Then she went clockwise again. Although looking at that list I so am not a rightbrainer, or whatever it is. I am NOT ruled by my feelings, alright?! Why do people always say that! It makes me so angry and emotional! ARGH!

Billy said...

It was anti-clockwise first of all, then I looked away for a second and when I looked back it was clockwise.

hilarious - you all sound so confused:)

Annie said...

I'm sulking because I can't see her going the other way.

Tim, I KNEW you'd bring it up. You had to lower the tone. (But why is she so perky? Must be all the attention...)

Tim F said...

Maybe she's spinning on an ice rink.

GreatSheElephant said...

Both ways, simply by altering what else I was thinking about at the same time.
Think about maths and she goes anticlockwise.
Think about the lovely autumn sun and she goes clockwise.

Anti-clockwise straightaway - there is no way she could be going any other direction. But I'm confused - is that left or right brained?! Derrr.
