Maxine's yearly Dementia test
 

Our Yearly Dementia Test

It's that time of year for us to take our annual senior citizen test.
Exercise of the brain is as important as exercise of the muscles. As we grow older, it's important to keep mentally alert. If you don't use it, you lose it!
Below is a very private way to gauge how your memory compares to the last test. Some may think it is too easy but the ones with memory problems may have difficulty.
Take this test to determine if you're losing it or not.
The spaces below are so you don't see the answers until after you've answered them.

OK, relax, clear your mind and begin.


1. What do you put in a toaster?





Answer: 'Bread.' If you said 'toast' give up now and do something else.
Try not to hurt yourself.

If you said, bread, go to Question 2.




2. Say 'silk' five times. Now spell 'silk.' What do cows drink?






Answer: Cows drink water. If you said 'milk' don't attempt the next question. Your brain is over-stressed and may even overheat.
However, if you said 'water', proceed to question 3.





3. If a red house is made from red bricks and a blue house is made from blue bricks and a pink house is made from pink bricks and a black house is made from black bricks,
what is a green house made from?




Answer: Greenhouses are made from glass. If you said 'green bricks,' why are you still reading these???
If you said 'glass,' go on to Question 4.


4. Without using a calculator - You are driving a bus from London to
Milford Haven in Wales . In London , 17 people get on the bus.
In Reading , 6 people get off the bus and 9 people get on.
In Swindon , 2 people get off and 4 get on.
In Cardiff , 11 people get off and 16 people get on.
In Swansea , 3 people get off and 5 people get on.
In Carmathen, 6 people get off and 3 get on.
You then arrive at Milford Haven.
Without scrolling back to review, how old is the bus driver?



Answer: Oh, for crying out loud!
Don't you remember your own age?
It was YOU driving the bus!!


If you pass this along to your friends, pray they do better than you.

PS: 95% of people fail most of the questions!!

That is great! I will need to send that one to my sister.

Hi ditter, another good one.

Ha, ha, ha. I must send this to my friend in England!!!

So glad you are back I have missed your funnies.

Problem I can drive a bus so I could be for the right money driving from London to Milford . May answer would be ?...

Welcome back Ditter and what better way to come back than with a real killer quiz-fest. My poor ol' 82 yr. old brain gets fogged up real easy without trying to add this one up.

Just gave this test to my daughter, who is a mental health nurse. She missed two and four, and I thought she was going to fall over laughing!

Thanks Ditter! I've missed you!

I got all of them right, so I'm good for at least another year! LOL

I'm kind of hosed maybe I should start on some Alzheimer's meds now and just get a jump start on it. :-/

Excellent test! I'm in trouble!
Thanks so much for sharing.

YEA! Ditter. You've done it once again. I've missed you. I hope you haven't been ill or something dreadful. You always make me laugh. You're as good as a bite of chocolate!

Great One Ditter. Just love your post.

Good one! I've passed it on.

In my own defense BABY cows drink milk. :D Very cute.

Thanks for this!!! Great way to start off day - LAUGHING & trying to figure out #4 w/o pen & paper….!!

Too much! Thanks, Ditter! After taking that test, I think it would be good for me just to stay in one spot today...maybe at the sewing machine with a super easy project.

Ya know....I sure missed you. Your posts always make me laugh.

Good one! Thanks.
