One-Question IQ Test

There is a mute who wants to buy a toothbrush. By imitating the action of brushing one’s teeth, he successfully expresses himself to the shopkeeper and the purchase is done.

Now, if there is a blind man who wishes to buy a pair of sunglasses, how should he express himself?

Think about it, and then scroll down for the answer.

He opens his mouth and says. “I would like to buy a pair of sunglasses” If you got this wrong – please turn off your computer and call it a day. (I’ve got mine shutting down right now.)

Want to be happy? Stop trying to be perfect

The quest for perfection is exhausting and unrelenting, but as hard as we try, we can’t turn off the tapes that fill our heads with messages like “Never good enough” and “What will people think?”

Why, when we know that there’s no such thing as perfect, do most of us spend an incredible amount of time and energy trying to be everything to everyone? Is it that we really admire perfection? No — the truth is that we are actually drawn to people who are real and down-to-earth. We love authenticity and we know that life is messy and imperfect.

For the ultimate Baseball fan: Authentic Yankee Stadium Seats

These are authentic seats from Old Yankee Stadium, where Yankees fans watched Reggie Jackson, Thurman Munson, Derek Jeter, and other iconic Bronx Bombers capture 6 World Series titles. Removed from the stadium before it was razed, each of the classic light blue chairs has the original fold-down plastic seats, backrests, and seat numbers that were used in The House That Ruth Built.

To ensure their authenticity, the chairs have a Major League Baseball hologram and come with a signed letter from the New York Yankees and Steiner Sports Memorabilia. The armrests have been repainted and the seats are mounted to stand upright.

An authentically detailed replica of the Westinghouse Junior Coca-Cola cooler, this soda chest combines all the hallmarks of the original with modern refrigeration technology. The side-mounted bottle opener and cap catcher, swiveling wheels, and lid chain recall the ubiquitous self-serve refrigerated chests favored by mom-and-pop stores and barbershops in the 1930s.

The 18-gauge stainless-steel chest is finished with a high-gloss, chip- and rust-resistant powder coat in classic red and white with Coca-Cola embossed on all sides and under the lid. Rubber seals along the lid, 1 1/2″ of solid-foam insulation, and five temperature settings ensure optimal efficiency and cold beverages. The interior holds up to 80 12-oz. cans or 60 8-oz. bottles of your preferred beverage.
