Obviously this floor exercise is not the same as actually lifting the weight -- I think he is asking is it like lifting a 20 lb. weight if he's working with a 30 lb. weight, or is it more like lifting a 10 lb. weight if he's working with a 20 lb. weight.

Well now. That is a question.

If it takes a chicken and a half a day and a half to lay an egg and a half,
how long does it take a grasshopper with a wooden leg to kick all the seeds out of a dill pickle?

If you translate from alglo to metric weight values, the problem will have no real significance any more.

Think kilos

Old Timer: “It’s s’posed ta go like THIS: If it takes half a chicken half an hour to lay half an egg, how long does it take a rooster to lay a brass doorknob?”

but is it for 20 like 30 lb when you no lift it to be for men, for 30 lbs instead? or half is 10 for 20 pounds?

You know damn right when you no lift for 30 lbs instead half is 10.

U have 20 LBS, u lift 30 LBS, but if ur not GUY, u want HALF, with no home plate, so u get 10.

U are re-tard, u spew garbaj, but if ur drunked, u might B NORMal, with no word-skills, so u get ridiculed.

Did you ever walk down the street and have somebody "nod" at you? What does that mean? Does that mean you have to nod back in order to be polite? If you do not return the nod, would you be considered to be rude?

Personally I do not nod back because I think that is some kind of homosexual communication.

I just figured it out!

Charmonica is at home without a Nautilus Gym machine. He is trying to figure out weight equivlants with free weights. He is wondering if he should count the weights on each end of the bar together or load each end of the bar with the weight that he would normally lift on the machine at the Gym.

The answer is: DON'T LIFT WHILE YOU'RE DRINKING!

It is left over from the almost forgotten courtesy of tipping your hat.

[You tip your hat to this lady, son!   And when I did, all that hair fell out from underneath...]

The natural motion of tipping a hat involves nodding the head while reaching for the hat.

When hats became passé, the nod was the disconcerted leftover compulsion.
