Am I an Idiot?

What is 2+10? I answered 12. Yet almost all the profiles list 10!

Is this some type of conformation experiment?

Maybe an IQ test.

Perhaps I live in a parrallel universe with different laws.

Perhaps I am an idiot not worthy of entry into general chat where I would have prefered to post this thread!

I think the 10's came when it turned on, and the 12's are people who know math filling them in.

I was beginning to formulate some conspiracy theories. Paranoid thoughts of secret societies. Mathematic re-education camps!

They are half way there. They have divided us into the 10's and the 12's.

They have you questioning your own convictions.

Assimilation is inevetable!

There are 10 kinds of people in the world, those who understand binary, and those who don't.

Okay, so it doesn't answer your question, But I really like that joke.

Usually if you have to ask this question (Am I an idiot?) the answer is yes.

It's a method of determining where forum members live.

2+10=12 You're a yankee

2+10=10 You're from below the Mason-Dixon line, a NASCAR fan and you have a mullet hair style.
