There are only two barbers in town. One of them has a nice, neatly trimmed head of hair. The other one's hair is a complete mess.Which of the two barbers should you go to and why?

6 replies
Lifer June 13th, 2019

@DarkWolf My answer is that I would go to the one whose hair is messy.

DarkWolf OP June 13th, 2019

@Lifer

Why would you?

Lifer June 13th, 2019

@Lifer...oh forgot the why...because the other sounds like a Sweeney Todd with heads that have neatly trimmed hair. :)

DarkWolf OP June 13th, 2019

@Lifer

The more conventional answer is that they cut each other's hair (there's no other barber in town).. therefore you might get a better haircut at the barber with messy hair.

Perform the calculation below as fast as you can, and using only mental arithmetic (so without pen and paper, or a calculator!).

Take 1000 and add 40.
Add 1000.
Add 30 and then add 1000.
Add 20.
Add 1000 and then add 10.

How much do you get?

coz 1000+40=1040+1000= 2040+ 30 = 2070+ 1000= 3070 + 20 = 3090+ 1000= 4090+ 10 = 4100

lol hahha cheeky

An old man dies, leaving behind two sons. In his will, he orders his sons to race with their horses, and the one with the slower horse will receive his inheritance. The two sons race, but since they're both holding their horses back, they go to a wise man and ask him what they should do. After that, the brothers race again โ€” this time at full speed. What did the wise man tell them?

@DarkWolf He could have told them to make a contract to share, no matter the result. It's what I would have done ;-)

But maybe he only asked them to unmount. And let the horses race on their own. Or even to run with them, so they do what the father wanted to.

Kleiderman June 14th, 2019

So my bad guess is "switch horses"

Switch cars, switch wifes and a few identities too๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

1 reply
DarkWolf OP June 14th, 2019

@Kleiderman

That's the right answer!

After they switch horses, whoever wins the race will get the inheritance because they still technically own the losing (i.e., slower) horse.
