How smart is your right foot?

Are you smarter than your right foot?

Try this quick test and see.

1. Without anyone watching you (they will think you are goofy) and while sitting where you are 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.

Ok, Now what direction is your foot going in?


You and I both 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.

Just another of those weird things our brain does.

Ahhhhh... my right foot started a sketch of Vitruvian Man - I guess I'm dumber than my own foot

Ah, my co-workers going to think I am having seizures, looking at my monitor, doing weird movements with my foot and hand, while smiling.. They are gonna think I just spent too much time in front of my computer.

Is this worse than George Costanza sleeping under his desk? :D

Uncontrolled. Right foot took off in a counterclockwise circle.

Is this a computer virus?

Then I tried the numeral six, clockwise, all went well!

It all depends on where you start your number 6... at the top point or the at the circle... I did it my first try.

Time!!? time?!! Jogga, I'll have you know, I discovered this amazing phenomenon while conducting experiments into the nature of evolutionary change and how it relates to intelligent design. This shows that we have developed an automatic change of direction response. The benefit of this reaction is to help us make the right choice when confronted by evil. As you can see, if you are moving in one direction when you are confronted by the devil you will naturally make the three sixes in mid air thus causing your feet to change direction.
I hope this has made everything clear for you.

I can only accept your claim that this is an experiment in evolutionary biology if you can demonstrate conclusively that it was conducted as a double blind experiment and the findings have been peer reviewed.

Well, I was totally drunk at the time and had to peer at it to review my results.
