Which road is to your village? ( So if he is lying he is from liars village and you go to smartest village, if he is not lying you still go to smartest village)

How do you even know which one among the Villages is the Smart and Liar village?

[Cutt3r]

Well i think the question to be asked is:

"The road on the left side will take me to the liar's village, yes?"
If he is a liar, he will say no
If he is truthful, he will say yes.

Am I right? :s

"A man, is found dead on a field, but, there is no gun or knife wounds or anything, all his bone are broken but no shots or cuts.. All the man has on him is a bag on his back"

How did the man die?

3 friends were hungry, so they decided to order a pizza.

They calculated that the pizza will cost $30, so they will pay $10 each.

The pizza arrives, they pay the deliverer $30.

When going to his car, the deliverer has realized that the pizza costs only $25, the men overpaid $5.

He thinks "Hmm, they didn't give me a tip... so I'm going to give $3 back, but I'm going to keep the $2 as a tip."

The deliverer returns, explains the situation and gives back $1 to each of the men, $3 in total.



Everything seems ok, doesn't it? But let's calculate again...


The men paid $10 each.

The pizza dude gave back $3.

Since all 3 men got $1 dollar back, they have paid $9 each for the pizza (10 - 1 = 9)

But wait...

If they paid $9 each for the pizza, it would be $27 (9 x 3)

The pizza dude took $2... so it's $29 in total... but didn't they pay $30 in total?

Then where's that missing dollar?

[Cutt3r]

Similar question was asked in the homework section. This was my answer.

Meh, nice one. I think this is how it works :p

They ultimately had to pay 25 bux, not 24(the problem says "9x3". Thats 27. But I went a step further and 8x3 is only 24 and they paid 25) . 25/3 = 8.33 per person. Plus, each person paid one extra dollar, so thats 9.33 per person.

9.33 x 3 persons = 28. Plus the 2 dllars that the clerk pocketed makes it 30.

I think thats it.

It's in the pizza dude's pocket too...

A pidgeon came and ate the dollar

Alright, let's see if you can guess this.

The word has 7 letters.
It is preceded by God.
It is greater than God.
It is more evil than the devil.
If you eat it, you will die.

Nothing

Nothing preceded God
Nothing is Greater then God
Nothing is more evil then the devil
If you eat Nothing, you will die. You need food to live.

Nice. Let's see if you get these...

1. Before Mt. Everest was discovered, what was the highest mountain on Earth?

2. You are standing between two doors. One leads to heaven, the other leads to hell. You do not know which door is which. However, there are two angels standing in front of the doors. One angel always tells a lie, the other always tells the truth. You can only ask one question to one of the angels to figure out which door leads to heaven. The question is, what do you ask?

3. What is broken every time it's spoken?

4. What work can a writer never quite finish?

5. If it took 8 men 10 hours to build a wall, how long would it take for 4 men to build it?

EDIT: I just realized number 2 has been mentioned before...

1. Mt Everest, even though it wasnt discovered by humans, it was still the highest moutain. ((but in reality, there is a taller moutain))

2. What gate does the other Angel says I should take? Because the lying angel will say that the truthful angel will tell you to pick the lying angels side (hell) and the truthful angel would say that the other angel would tell you to pick the lying angels side (hell) that means the remaining one is heaven.

3. Silence

4. Autobigraphy

5. There are 2 answers. The more hard one is it would take 0 hours, because ithe wall is already built. But hypertheratically it would take 20 hours.

Come on, make them harder. Alot of them just use simple common sense.

[Cane]

simple common sense

Some don't have that.

Very well, as you requested...

1. Three lives have I.
Gentle enough to soothe the skin,
Light enough to caress the sky,
Hard enough to crack rocks.
What am I?

2. You heard me before,
Yet you hear me again,
Then I die,
'Till you call me again.
What am I?

3. My life can be measured in hours,
I serve by being devoured.
Thin, I am quick
Fat, I am slow
Wind is my foe.
What am I?

4. Weight in my belly,
Trees on my back.
Nails in my ribs,
Feet I do lack.
What am I?

5. Lighter than what
I am made of,
More of me is hidden
Than is seen.
What am I?
