Don't click here!

Reverse psychology always works

---

So I don't get told off this is actually a test to see how many people will actually check.

Tests prove 95% of people will actually click this to see why they shouldn't click it.

Re: Don't click here!

This is dangerous - if there was a big red button on the wall saying not to push it, I wonder how many would? The red button could actually be harmful - i.e. blow up the world, and people would happily do what they were told not to do!

Of course, I'm not sure why anyone would make a button which blows up the entire world anyway, but I'm being hypothetical here....

Re: Don't click here!

Yeah, I actually thought you were going to be talking about something that we shouldn't click rather than meaning we shouldn't click to open this thread!

But either way I'd have clicked on it, I'm the WORST for that sort of thing. I'm not making this up - I can't trust myself to sit next to the emergency exit on a plane because I get this really strong urge to rip the door out mid flight, just to see what would happen...

Re: Don't click here!

Yeah I have seen this used on some naughty made-for-adsense sites. Its a bit like when someone says "don't look behind you.." you just cant help but do it.

Haha, well of course I don't think I would actually do it...pretty sure...almost certain in fact...

I really do ask for a seat that isn't next to the emergency exit though because it's just quite stressful sitting there having those thoughts!

Re: Don't click here!

look at it this way. You clicked (so did I) because of curiosity and for no other reason. Curiosity about anything is how you learn. So it is good you clicked, because you wanted to learn.... The down side is that Daniel is cheap and didn't have any snacks available once we got here. lol
