11-17-2006, 06:42 PM
I know that..BRAT! But seriously. If its half of 12 it's gotta be 6. I dont see any way around that.

um is it suppose to be. How can half of 12 be 7?
Because when 12 is a roman numeral XII you cut off the top half and get VlI.

okayy well since it doesnt state that the doctor and lawyer are men, then they are girls..
since they can't be twin girls.. they can be triplets or quintuples or w/e you call them..

ok how about this one:
a man was boring in 1955, but today hes 19 years old.. hows this possible?

he's BORING in 1955 which could mean he wasn't born yet and then he was born 19 years ago. OR he could be boring a hole in something named 1955...maybe I'm just far out. :tomato:

You approach two talking doors. One door leads to the City of Truth, while the other door leads to the City of Liars. You do not know which door is which. You are able to ask only one question to determine which door is which. The door that leads to the City of Liars always speaks lies, while the door that leads to the City of Truth always speaks the truth. You want to go to the City of Truth. What question do you ask to determine which door leads to the City of Truth

H2O Soulja
11-27-2006, 08:25 PM
Ooooh see, check your own facts before asking me about mine :p

:p shut up!

to answer the City of Truth question:

when you could just ask "How many doors are there?" if the one you ask says one, go through the other one, if it says two go through it...

Here is mine..

I got one:

Brothers and sisters I have none
but this man's farther is my farther's son

it took me three weeks to get it and I still don't understand the answer. I know it but I don't see how it fits......
plz don't overthink this like I did, cuz u might get a headache.

Butler47
11-27-2006, 08:40 PM
Is it you?

Black Capone
11-27-2006, 08:54 PM
explain ur answer

and I just understood the answer....I feel smart now

Butler47
11-27-2006, 08:59 PM
"Brothers and sisters I have none" That means your an only child

"My fathers son" has to be you since your an only child and "this man" is referring to you but that line is put in there to try confuse the thinker. In context someone doesnt refer to themselves as "this man" but the speaker who is "you" speaks in third person and first and thats why it is confusing.

Am I right or am I pulling crap out of no where lol?

Black Capone
11-27-2006, 09:06 PM
dammit, I feel dumb now

ur right

I feel smart again...

Here are a few riddles.

1.Theres a bum in new york and the bum has a brother in L.A. The bums is not a brother of anyone. How is that possible?

2.Theres a ice cream place that sells ice cream cones for 1$ each, so theres 1 grand father, 2 father, and 2 sons. They bring 3$ all together and some how that is enough to buy everyone an ice-cream.

PanzerOrta
12-10-2006, 07:30 PM
1: the bum is a female.

2: the cone is $1 so that could be that they don't buy the cone at all and they just get ice cream, or they just buy one cone and spend the remaining $2 on ice cream.
