|
There is a very, very tall coconut tree and there are 4 animals :
A Koala, an Ape, an Orangutan and a Monkey pass by.
They decide to compete to see who is the
fastest to get a banana off the tree.
Who do you guess will win?
Your answer will reflect your personality.
So think carefully . . . Try and answer within 30 seconds
Got your answer?
Now scroll down to see the analysis.
If your answer is:
Orangutan = you're dull & normal
Ape = you're a moron
Monkey = worse, you're an idiot
Koala = you're hopelessly stupid
Why?????
A Coconut tree doesn't have bananas !
Obviously you're stressed and overworked.
Take some time off and relax !
Try again next year
PS> I am a complete MORON!!!

I took a more scientific approach. I figured that an Ape, an Orangutan , and a Monkey were all primates. This left the Koala, a slow arboreal marsupial herbivore. I was sitting there scratching my head trying to figure out if the punch line involved a jet pack attached to the Koala. I finally gave up and read on. I guess that makes me a stupid, idiot, moron!!!
I must have momentarily mistaken the banana tree (the Musaceae family) and the coconut tree (the Arecaceae family) as being the same species. Oops!

I'm pleased to announce that I read the question and said, you can't get bananas out of a coconut tree, without having to check what kind of critter might do what. Funny thing is, all of those animals know that, now don't you guys start screaming and flinging poo at me!

The trick is to read half way through, then double back because you forgot what you read in the first place. I guess I blew through it too fast! Damn primates! I've never much liked them anyway. Except for the monkey shish-kabob I ate in Viet Nam. And still, the little bastard gave me heart burn.

Wasn't that "monkey on a stick"? Had it in Alongapo...
Tracker. Just because your genes are 98% monkey doesn't give you the right to "dis" your elders...

I had some in Alongapo also. It was better than the Viet Nam version. I think it sat for too long in the sun. Damn roadside vendors. That's alright, I paid him with outdated script. You might be the onlyone reading this that understands what script is (or was).

lol! that got me, mostly i catch on to trick questions
i said Orangutan = you're dull & normal
i picked that one because i thought it might somehow be the smartest one since it supposed to be our closest mammal ancestors(yeah right, not mine) and somehow outsmart the others, oh man, i need to get some sleep, have to get up early to go to work.
greets all

I had an unfair advantage. While stationed in Hawaii, coconuts, bananas and limes were growing in the yard at our quarters.
But, my first thought was that since it was an aussie joke, the koala would win. ;D
