I got this email off my friend today, please tell me it works on you too?

THE BANANA TEST

The Banana Test




There is a very, very tall coconut tree and there are 4 animals,

A Lion , A Chimp , A Giraffe ,
...AND....

A Squirrel



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:

Lion = you're dull.
Chimpanzee = you're dense.
Giraffe = you're a complete moron.
Squirrel = you're hopeless.






A COCONUT TREE DOESN'T HAVE BANANAS.




Obviously you're stressed and overworked.
You should take some time off and relax












I really fell for it, how many of you did??

I asked that question - why are there bananas on a coconut tree?? I thought I was confused at first, but I guess that means I'm the only non-stressed one so far!
Rather unbelievable, coming from a graduate student writing her thesis!

I caught it, but also thought "who the heck says coconut tree? It's a type of palm - it's coconut palm..".

I thought the same way. I said to myself "wait a minute, bananas don't grow on a coconut tree!" I almost said squirrel though

Duh!
I was thinking Chimp because he was the only one who eats bananas.

I fall for those every time.

How would a lion get up a tree the fastest?
