Q: Does twenty five dollar bills equal the same amount as five twenty dollar bills?
Depends. Is the first group dollar bills or five dollar bills?
Or maybe I am just as dumb.
Well, he does say five dollar bills.
I don’t think you are just as dumb. I know when I saw the question I had to look at it two or three times to make sure it wasn’t a trick question. Simple questions are like that sometimes.
As I was growing older I’d look back and wish that I was still in my early 20’s. Now that i’m 40 I thank god i’m not one of these current-age young twits or around them, Maybe if I was back in the 80’s but not now.
Good opening question to ask if you find a talkety lib sitting next to you at a bar. If He can’t answer just instantly move 4 seats down.
I was at a restaurant with my ex-GF and her friend. I asked tough questions like how long does it take the Earth to spin around once? How long does it take the Earth to move around the sun once? Etc.
Both of them looked at me like I had two heads and neither had an answer.
As you can imagine conversations with the ex were pretty simplistic. Hence the word “Ex”.
