While I was thinking about a red hammer I thought I should let you guys know this is complete bull s h i t. Let me explain to you what is happening here, this survey is NOT reading your mind.

It is just taking advantage of how our brains work.
"Prototype Theory is a mode of graded categorization in Cognitive Science, where some members of a category are more central than others. For example, when asked to give an example of the concept furniture, chair is more frequently cited than, say, stool. Prototype theory also plays a central role in Linguistics, as part of the mapping from phonological structure to semantics.

As formulated in the 1970s by Eleanor Rosch and others, prototype theory was a radical departure from traditional necessary and sufficient conditions as in Aristotelian logic, which led to set-theoretic approaches of extensional or intensional semantics. Thus instead of a definition based model - e.g. a bird may be defined as elements with the features [+feathers], [+beak] and [+ability to fly], prototype theory would consider a category like bird as consisting of different elements which have unequal status - e.g. a robin is more prototypical of a bird than, say a penguin. This leads to a graded notion of categories, which is a central notion in many models of cognitive science and cognitive semantics, e.g. in the work of George Lakoff (Women, fire and dangerous things, 1987) or Ronald Langacker (Cognitive Grammar, vol. 1/2 1987/1991).

The term prototype has been defined in Eleanor Rosch's study "Natural Categories" (1973) and was first defined as a stimulus, which takes a salient position in the formation of a category as it is the first stimulus to be associated with that category. Later, she redefined it as the most central member of a category."

This is why , so many of you thought of red hammer, the whole 2% versus 98% is total bull s h i t. Its just a survey wasting your time in turn for a small reward that you are in the "2%" group.

I thought of red wrench. It's not so unusual and a lot more than 2% said something other than a red hammer. There are only a few primary colors that most people would think of like red and blue or even black and only so many tools that most people have in the house and the hammer and wrench are two of the most popular.
