IQ Test Fail

Here’s a shot of an ad for one of those random “IQ Tests”. This question is reasonably compelling, so I took a few minutes to figure it out.

Clicking on the ad, I landed on a page where you could take this test, for I was hoping the rest of the exam would be fairly interesting. At the bottom was a list of four answers to choose from, although there was the minor issue of the correct answer not being listed. (Click to see the choices.)

    It wasn’t patently ineffective – you clicked on it.
