ok so its about 1 AM here and I am really bored. SO i thought i would make a thread that would be jokes but you could only use gear in them. So here is mine. I have posted it a long time ago but i forgot what happend to that thread.

So a hydro and a pinstripe walk into a bar and they get drunk and become very flustered with eachother so the pin says to the hydro...."hey buddy I dont like your tone."

Best joke here - Ok so this guy goes to a bar with his 3 friends and they're having a good time drinking it up. One guy goes up to the bartender and says " Hey if I can pee in the cup from standing on this table from 5 feet away and get it all in the cup, with none hitting the ground or the table or anything will you give me $200.00? and If I dont get it all in I'll give you 200.00$" The bartender accepts this deal so the man starts peeing. He is just peeing everywhere all over the bartender, the tables, etc. The bartender asks for his 200$ So the man says ok one second. So he goes over to his three friends and they all hand him some money. He goes back up to the bartender and the bartender says " hey why did all your friends give you the money?" The man says " I bet them 150$ each that I could pee all over the bartender and the bar and he'd be happy about it :lol:

not a gear joke but it's to make you think
3 guys go into a hotel and ask for a room...well the guy replies "we only have one left, but it's got two beds and a fold out couch so you'll all have room to sleep" so the guys the say they'll take it and ask how much it'll be. "$10.00 apiece so $30.00" the clerk replies. So htey all pay and go up to their rooms.
Well the manager comes down and realizes that the clerk overcharged them. THe room is supposed to rented out at "$25.00". So he gives the bell boy $5.00 to take back up to the guys in the room. Well the bell boy doen's konw how he'll split five dollars amongst three members so he gives them each 1.00 back and pockets two for himself. So now those guys have each paid 9.00 dollars a piece for the room (x3=27.00) and the bell boy pockets the 2.00.
(27+2=29) what happened to the other dollar?

Ok...the answer is:

So now that it's 25.00 for the....you add the 2 in the bellboy's pocket and that makes 27. 9x3 is 27.

LittlePound
01-20-2006, 09:21 PM
uhm no
they paid 10 dollars a piece, but then they each got a buck back. 9 dollars apiece equals 27.00. RIght...but hte room only cost 25.00 (after realization of overcharge) the other two bucks are in the bell boy's pocket....

the 9 bucks includes the tips

**edit tips as in the 5 dollar unaccountence

aznriceball
01-20-2006, 09:30 PM
besides

25/3 = 8.333, plus a buck means they each payed 9.333 after they got a buck back

LittlePound
01-20-2006, 09:30 PM
huh? ok after all i said and done those guys paid 9 bucks a piece....each got one dollar back after paying 10. That's 27 dollars....the room is only 25 which is why the bell boy has go two in his pocket.

u said urself to ignore the 30, the new rate is the 25 plus the 5 they are owed. its just a matter of accounting for in a different order

25/3 + 1 = 9.33 dollars per person, = 28

+2

= 30

LittlePound
01-20-2006, 09:36 PM
you're still looking at the 30, ignore 30, it's only purpose is to confuse you. They paid 30, they are getting 5 dollars back. Cant' split 5 dollars amongst three people easily so only 3 is given back to them. THe bell boy keeps 2. Becuase a dollar was given to each of them that means they paid 27 (9for roomx3 people). That's twenty seven, 25 for room, 2 for bell boy

27 is the number you're actually trying to reach cuz that's the total actually paid by the 3 guys

aznriceball

01-20-2006, 09:42 PM

the rate is 25 bucks,

LittlePound
01-20-2006, 09:45 PM
yes that equals 30, but hte confusing part (the whole point of the story) is after they've been given the money back, they each paid 9. 9x3 is 27 plus the 2 in his pocket is 29. Where's the dollar.... you're just looking at a completely different perspective of any of us apparently and not following the story, rather it just seems like your taking hte numbers and manipulating them to equal 30....30 isn't the number you're trying to get, it's 27
i guess it done'st really matter thoug

aznriceball
01-20-2006, 09:46 PM
the 9 dollars part is the flaw of the story it seems to me

LittlePound
01-20-2006, 09:47 PM
how is it flawed. that's how much each individually paid was 9 bucks

aznriceball
01-20-2006, 09:51 PM
it looks like they payed 10 bucks each and then lost 5/3 of a dollar each, and then, through the partial refund, got back a buck, which is less than what they payed. one or the other got back less than they actually needed.

25 + 2 + 3..the 9 is the one set to confuse, not the 30. unless ud like to tell me the point of the joke..

LittlePound
01-20-2006, 09:53 PM
see you're just being confused by your fractions....or confusing me, i get where you're coming from but it seems liks you've missed the whole point of hte "joke" and it's not supposed to be funny, i think i posted that in the first one, it's supposed to make you think (apparently maybe a little too hard ahhahaha)

I figured one out (wether it's been posted or not I'm not 100% sure...)

The rate is $25. $9x3=$27 BUT -$2 that the bell boy pocketed =$25.

25/3 + 1 = 9.33 dollars per person, = 28

+2

= 30

I knew it! It IS due to a truncation error! w00t w00t.

EDIT: No no, I get it now. You are looking for a total of 27 because the company returned $3 from the initial $30, back to the gentlemen.

Heres a puzzle:

A young boy and his father are playing football out in an estate. The father kicks the ball onto the road and the son runs out onto the road and gets knocked down. The father takes his son into his arms and runs around the corner to the hospital. The father gives the boy to some nurses who rush him into the operating room. After a while the doctor comes out to the father and says 'Im sorry, I can't operate on this child, as he is my son'

It's said he gives a boy to the nurses not his son.

Some notes on the other riddle:
They paid 30$ for the room, but then they are just charged 25.
everybody paid already ten dollars, if they are a returned one dollar each they paid 9$ for the room which makes it 27.
If you ask me, they've been ripped off

My first thought was that doctor and father would be the same person, but it's kind of strange if he comes out to himelf to tell himself that he can't operate his son

nothing

There is classic eBay story.

A member sold nothing.
There were bids on it and he sold it for quite some money.

The funny thing is, the guy who bought nothing complained that he got nothing... what did he expect to get? :lol:

not a gear joke but it's to make you think
3 guys go into a hotel and ask for a room...well the guy replies "we only have one left, but it's got two beds and a fold out couch so you'll all have room to sleep" so the guys the say they'll take it and ask how much it'll be. "$10.00 apiece so $30.00" the clerk replies. So htey all pay and go up to their rooms.
Well the manager comes down and realizes that the clerk overcharged them. THe room is supposed to rented out at "$25.00". So he gives the bell boy $5.00 to take back up to the guys in the room. Well the bell boy doen's konw how he'll split five dollars amongst three members so he gives them each 1.00 back and pockets two for himself. So now those guys have each paid 9.00 dollars a piece for the room (x3=27.00) and the bell boy pockets the 2.00.
(27+2=29) what happened to the other dollar?
the flaw in the puzzle is simply: 27 dollars (30 - 3 = 27) is what those three spent. the missing 3 dollars is what the boy gives them back, you can't add the 2 dollars the boy gets to the 27 dollars, because the 27 dollars consist of the regular price plus the "tip" already. so it's 9 that everybody spent. the whole riddle is just based on confusion by adding superfluous arithmetics.
I reckon that's also were azn was coming from. they spend 25/3 for the room and 2/3 for the tip. they get 3 dollars back, and voila.

neg rep, anyone? :p

That's pretty crap.

The doctor is a woman, which is his mother
