This comes by way of [livejournal.com profile] satyr69's LJ. It's funny, I suggest you try it.

This is a test where you have to look at a picture and try to find the dogs in it. This is not a "stare at the screen when suddenly your computer screams at you" picture.

Read this first!

Here is a visual-perception challenge for you. See how quickly you can find the dogs in the picture below the lj cut. Read the text below before looking at the picture.

Typical comments by women taking the test:

1. "I couldn't see any dogs and I stared at the picture for a good 10 minutes."

2. "I think it is one of those pictures where you have to stare at a certain spot and then everything comes into focus, but it never happened to me. I'll give it another try later."

3. "I almost didn't find the dogs at all!"

4. "There is a dog in this picture? Where?"

5. "This must be a joke; there are no dogs in this picture."

Men seem to do better at this than women, for some reason.

The following are average times for men and women:

Women - 12.46 minutes
Men - 1.23 seconds

Hint: There are 2 dogs and they appear to be white with black spots.

When I first clicked the cut-link in his LJ, I rolled my eyes at the picture. Then I took a real look instead of just glancing. Mmmm.

Dogs? I was supposed to be looking for dogs?

Ok, I think I missed the curve. The dogs were the first thing I saw.
There is obviously something wrong with me.

I, too, zeroed in on the dogs.

If it had been, say Eliza Dushku instead of men, however --- heh. ;)

Heehee. Well, I'll admit to having seen the dogs first as well, but once I looked closer at the picture and started checking out the guys' bellies, I forgot about them!

Oh. The joke is that the guys are so sexy that you won't see anything else.

Oh, I thought the joke was that you were supposed to find the ugliest guy (dog) of the bunch and though the dalmatians obviated that point.

One word: Eeeew.

I did give the link though to a friend who I knew would appreciate your tastes, she did. Couldn't comment though she's not an LJ user.
