Decided to come up with this random riddle :/ .... How bored must i be-


Insanity Test... (Half joke... and I think i read it somewhere)

Your put in a room with a Bath a Toilet and a Sink -

Its a ordinary bathroom with normal stuff. Apart from at the side of the bath, is a Bucket, Teaspoon and a TeaCup.

The Bath is filled with Clear water.

You are asked to empty the bath of all the water.

So, how would you empty the bath? Short answers please.

remove the plug from the bath....

oh wait....

i'd fill up the bucket, empty the bucket with the teacup, empty the tea cup with the spoon and then pour the water from the spoon into the sink and then i'd drink the toilet water because i'd probably be thirsty by then :D

Glok

Fastest way possible... use the bucket and teacup when the water got low and dump it all in the toilet (what I didn't drink anyways) then suck up the rest of the water with my mouth and spit it in the toilet.

(this is assuming of course that you can't simply unplug the bath, as giga would do)

Pantho
21-09-06, 12:28
Yea.. Unplug the bath... anyways




A woman has 7 children, half of them are boys.
How can this be possible?

Either ones got both sets of genetalia, or she's still pregnant with the 7th child and doesnt know the sex yet?

Just a little brammers :)


A time when they’re green, a time when they’re brown,
But both of these times, cause me to frown.
But just in between, for a very short while,
They’re perfect and yellow, and cause me to smile!
What am I talking about here?

Bananas do sound good.. but dandelions might be the answer here, since they presumably turn brown after scattering all these seeds.

Id say it it "Air" if Yuuki is correct with the chemistry thing.

Falsely claimed name = heir (sounds like air). Breath of fresh air, bla bla.

It lies behind stars and under hills, and empty holes it fills.
It comes first and follows after, ends life, kills laughter.

I can see what you see not
vision milky then eyes rot
When you turn they will be gone
whispering their hidden song
Then you see what cannot be
Shadows move where light should be
Out of darkness out of mind
Cast down into the halls of the blind


..Spot the game...



ANYWAYS
Here's one for you:
There are three tree in the middle of a field.
What does the middle tree represent?

Edit: I'll check back in a week and see if anyone got both right...

Pantho

Oh,

and the Middle tree tbh :p

Glok
22-09-06, 01:04
Here's one for you:
There are three tree in the middle of a field.
What does the middle tree represent?Not the answer but an interesting observation.. if there is a 'middle' tree then the trees aren't arranged in a triangle but must be in a straight line or nearly so.

edit: In which case, the middle tree could represent one of the foci of an ellipse with the outer 2 trees representing points on the ellipse. editedit: Fuck. Any 3 trees could satisfy that answer. :lol: editeditedit: Fuck! Any 3 trees could also represent both foci of an ellipse with the remaining tree being a point on the ellipse. NO MORE EDITS I'M DRIVING MYSELF NUTS!
