Title: Lateral Thinking.
Post by: Jeddeth on January 01, 2013, 10:51:45 am
Okay so how this works is, I play out a scenario followed by a question, It's pretty simple you just answer the question and I'll reply to the correct answer :D
Scenario: A Man called Dave has been doing some family history. After much research and gathering of information from Archives and Family Tree Websites, Dave finds he has a brother named Chris. He contacts Chris and the two agree to meet. Dave arrives at the airport to pick up Chris but he has only a Birth Certificate to go by, with no photo. Dave however, is able to pick someone out of the crowd instantly and approach him, the person he picks out is indeed his brother Chris.
Question: How did Dave know this man was his brother when he had only a birth certificate with Names, Dates and place of birth to go by?

Just an idea, but are they identical twins?

Damn, Yeah thats it. The Birth Certificate had a date of birth, Dave saw it was the same as his and assumed that the two were indeed Twins. It's usually the most obvious answer but people never get it. Well done  :laugh:

Heres another one.
Three police officers named Jim, Andy, and Joe are called to an abandoned Cafe on a side of the road, when they arrive a witness tells them that inside is a 'Paranormal Coffee Machine', when asked what is meant by this, the man tells the officers that the Coffee-Machine is in fact capable of delivering ANY drink imaginable if asked. The officers laugh and start ordering cokes, sprites and other beverages. Sure enough the machine delivered. The officers we're shocked and kept ordering drinks. The machine was even capable of serving drinks only mentioned in Movies, such as the Gargle Blaster from 'The Hitchhikers guide to The Galaxy'. A Purple liquid was served. Then Andy orders something, the machine deliveres a pint of blood, puss, and other bodily fluids along with layers of flesh on top, when the drink was delivered one of the officers simply vanished!
Question: What did Andy order to of received this horrible pint of bodily fluids and flesh?
