chufflebean Mar 06, 2005	I thought it was fun, but I think it would have made more sense if the wording had been, "where can you find 3/7 chicken...etc."
Mellyjc Mar 06, 2005	Oofah. I treated that as much harder than it was! Darn overthink.
chelsea_hope Mar 06, 2005
Dreaming2045 Mar 07, 2005	Well i read all of the comments and we are working w/ fractions in skool (i am only in 6th) so we do all sorts so yes 3/7 can be used. I didnt get it right though yet i never get them right lol.
poopie Apr 23, 2005	no fair how did they accept this teaser? I tried 2 submit 1 that was in the same form but WAYYYYYYY different! And they said it was just something 2 fugure out but not really a teaser!!!!!!!!
sweetime May 26, 2005	i like the answer, but i went with "dim sum"
aprilsprings29 Jan 02, 2006	Chi-town ROXS!!
TheEarthling Jan 06, 2006	Cute.
OldChinaHand Mar 05, 2006	It's 1/2 coke and 2/3 sol...
bluehawk Mar 05, 2006	CUTE, VERY CUTE. CREATIVE?,YES, YOU BET IT IS. I ENJOYED THIS ONE "K".
lmurray Mar 05, 2006	YOUR PLAYING WITH WORDS, NOT MY MIND. GET WITH IT AND TRY TO CHALLENGE MY BRAIN!
speediebean Mar 05, 2006	I thought it was adorable!!! And, for you negative people out there, give a 6th grader a break!!! Sheeesh! Bunch of meanies!! Didn't your Mothers ever teach you, if you don't have something nice to say, shut your pie hole!!
shawneeo Mar 05, 2006	Yeah, constructive comments are one thing, but you: "I'm so bored." people, don't you realize your boredom is your responsibility? You can't just sit back and wait for others to stimulate you, not after you're like, three months old! The teaser was good, it was a trick teaser, and that's what trick teasers are like, it even said the trick makes it easy once you find it in the heading. Thanks, and btw: I got it!
RRAMMOHAN Mar 05, 2006	This one is too simple!
Prodigy Mar 05, 2006	I liked this teaser it was pretty cool... i agree it is not a brain teaser it is a trick a good one too frankly, i didnt know it after the headache of 2 hours of anatomy, who would???
coldfire Mar 05, 2006	this's great! I thought it has something to do with the animals body part
lazy-boy Mar 05, 2006	This was really well thought out and I liked it EXCELLENT JOB
Unstumpable Mar 05, 2006	This was a really easy one, but yet still clever. I liked it. Good Job
bradon182001 Mar 05, 2006	Not one of the better ones.That is MY OPINION!!
lindquist_25 Mar 05, 2006	I GOT IT!! AND I LOVED IT!! GREAT JOB!!
Tryer Mar 05, 2006	Well I thought this was pretty damn good... Didn't get it though But it certainly teased my brain!! thats a BRAIN TEASER Well done
yesenia8rivera Mar 05, 2006	Clever. I liked that one alot. Yes a little red flag did go up when I saw those fractions but...Great Teaser although I didn't get it!
bubblesam22 Mar 05, 2006	I really don't want you to email me the Brain Teasers anymore. My email address is bubblesam22@yahoo.com getting those emails make me puke !!!!!
lorakristin Mar 05, 2006	Well, I got it..eventually. I had to really think about this one. Great teaser!!!

zweifachmutter Mar 05, 2006	good one...my son is learning about fraction right now...i'll have him try and guess this one before breakfast
tsrugg Mar 05, 2006	very easy, good one
vlerma Mar 05, 2006	Again, right over my head, didn't even redflag the fractions. After reading the answer I felt even more stupid. But this gives me another experience of dealing with different teasers. All in all, I enjoyed it very much. Nice job.
vlerma Mar 05, 2006	p.s. Shawnee and Speedybrain, I agree and will back you up on the negative commentors. Come on guys, constructive criticism pleeeassse!!! More High Plains Diplomacy is needed at times here!
vlerma Mar 05, 2006	Sorry Speediebean, but my intentions were good just the wrong moniker.
mitzimesser Mar 05, 2006	I wish I'd have come up with that one. Way to use your imagination! All you insulting commenters, I'd like to see you come up with something better.
brainy_girl Mar 05, 2006	preety easy stuff.I figure it out by the time i finish reading it
kashby Mar 05, 2006	2 hard, im not that smart!
windexnodrip Mar 05, 2006	EASY!!! but nice teaser!!! keep em coming!
buddirose Mar 05, 2006	i liked it because i had no idea good one
cms271828 Mar 05, 2006	It doesn't work. I just got a chicken, cut 3 7 th's off, then cut 2 thirds off a cat, and then cut a goat in half. I mixed it together and I got a stinking bloody putrid collection of animal parts.. not chicago. I'm disappointed
iteachkids Mar 05, 2006	I'm with Vierma and p.s. Shawnee and Speedybean. Totally. As for cms ... NOT FUNNY! As for the teaser ... creative and clever and LOTSAFUN!!!
riddlelover Mar 05, 2006	Chicago, or the people in Chicago? Ok...that was mean- apologies to all Chicago residents!!!!
JessicaLynn Mar 05, 2006	I got the answer but for some weird reason I didn't think Chicago. I said in my mind: the answer is Chi,ca,and go.
redraptor50 Mar 05, 2006	Thpught it was, but didn't get it until the last minute, but GREAT ONE
jabdr Mar 05, 2006	Too clever. I loved it.

senther7 Dec 01, 2006	????????????????????????????????
kauphi1976 Mar 06, 2007	I thought it was a dish but then being a vegetarian it seemed hard. So i blinked and i saw the sears tower in front of my eyes and ofcourse it was CHI-CA-GO !
sumit Mar 06, 2007	was easy... guessed within a minute
brandiMcBride20 Mar 06, 2007	Well I live in Chicago..and yup I can pretty much agree,, these ANIMALS!!! good teaser!!
craniac Mar 06, 2007	Wow, this one really stirs everyone up. Like many, I found it simple, but cute and enjoyable. Just what one needs at 3 a.m. when he wakes up and can't get back to sleep.
cloughme Mar 06, 2007	Good teaser, but WAY EASY!!
puttumup Mar 06, 2007	hmmm.i wouldnt call that a teaser.but more of a joke.. as a joke it was silly.something a child would come up with..
puttumup Mar 06, 2007
carousel90 Mar 06, 2007	I thought that was a very good teaser. All of you "geniuses" out there with the rude comments should make up your own and chill out. There is no reason for the rude, degrading comments posted by some. These teasers are for fun!!! If you don't like them, don't do them!!
sftball_rocks13 Mar 06, 2007	This is so cute I loved this, it made me laugh when I saw the answer I only kind of had an idea how to do it
bradon182001 Mar 06, 2007	Not one of the better ones. And that's still my opinion.
Pizzazz2u Mar 06, 2007	A wee bit too easy, today.... but still a creative teaser. It should get many of users to use that mind of theirs.
saleprice Mar 06, 2007	nice way to start my day.. with the right answer.. easy but fun tyvm
heyman Mar 06, 2007	First thing I did was count the number of characters in Chicken. I knew I had it then.
mohith_m Mar 06, 2007	nice one!
altuttle Mar 06, 2007	Really Easy but fun! I liked it!
theresabbeale Mar 06, 2007	I used teasers like these with my students when we were learning fractions. They loved them.
Coolfreeze Mar 06, 2007	Easy, but satisfying.
LeafFan4life Mar 06, 2007	ohh i thought it was some messed up cow
speedqueenkmw Mar 06, 2007
auntiesis Mar 06, 2007	Very easy, but cute.
loony300 Mar 06, 2007	i dont know how i got it, but i loved it! Great teaser!
masquerademe235 Mar 06, 2007	i got it, but i didn't write it down so i thought it sounded like chick-a-go... but i got it nonetheless! great teaser!
Chocobo Mar 06, 2007	Haha! I thought it`d be an animal of some sort
jamy400 Mar 06, 2007	That was really funny.I thought it was some kind of mutant animal but when I saw the answer I got it.
dachshund2k3 Mar 06, 2007	hehe. I got chicago, but was pronouncing it something like "chih-kuh-go" and I couldn't get it. Great teaser
agentsmith64691 Mar 06, 2007	OMG that was easy, it is realy obious when the fractions change proportionally to the words.
saradove Mar 06, 2007	Thank you for the awesom teaser.
katie4 Mar 06, 2007	SOMEONE PM ME
cooltigerr1 Mar 06, 2007	haha that was a good one!
breathesunshine Mar 06, 2007	har har har.
blondebookworm Mar 06, 2007	Clever!
phazt Mar 06, 2007	wonderful!
phyllisa Mar 07, 2007	I thought it was consonants in the words!
eyenowhour Mar 07, 2007	Very fun teaser!
frozenrose_885 Mar 07, 2007	That's creative!
GobyDude Mar 07, 2007	wow thats so random
Qrystal Mar 12, 2007	AWWWWWwwww..... tricks always trick me. This was no exception. My best answer was that it was 67/42 of a menagerie. Of course I knew it was wrong, but I was hoping that adding the fractions would get me somewhere.
bbwild95 Mar 25, 2007	I found it pretty easy. Funny and cute though
lavender Sep 16, 2007	Wow. That's awesome!
Akatsuki_Neko Dec 25, 2007	I say: a MUTANT!
steeler84 Jan 21, 2008	I know my fractions fun but kinda easy
zembobo Jun 03, 2008	Loved it!! This is what Trick teasers are all about! I didn't get it but I had to laugh when I read the answer. Very clever!!
tigerlily34 Aug 12, 2008	Very good
markmonnin Sep 08, 2008	I'm not sure this should be in trick questions. However, any other category would have given away the answer. Neat formula.
Calehay Nov 03, 2008	Great teaser! The trick is that you are to believe that there is something that is part chicken, cat, and goat, and not consider that the fractions are talking about the letters.
Nerd2 Apr 30, 2009	Cool, although I would have made some kind of hint
Omaha345 Sep 02, 2009	I'll have to text this is to my brothers GF because she just went to Chicago for college!!
sashomarine Jan 15, 2010	Lol, I wasn't thinking of Chicago- Shicogo, I was thinking of Chicogo...
gottalovetacsc Mar 06, 2010	Wooh! I got it right away! Nice teaser!
craniac Mar 06, 2010	Fun!
doehead Mar 06, 2010	Strictly my opinion: Very stupid!!!!
patiencewithaP Mar 06, 2010	Fun and creative!
avonma Mar 06, 2010	I didn't get it. I forget about this kind of teaser. I do like them, though. It should have been easy, but, I goofed. Thanks!
auntiesis Mar 06, 2010	I got this one so quickly that I knew it had to be a repeat. Still cute.
TallTimber Mar 06, 2010	Clever, well done.
Island_girl808 Mar 06, 2010	OMMFG! that wohz tricky. LOLS. But Fuun.
OldChinaHand Mar 06, 2010	This is almost as old as the fire...but still nice to see it again. Thanks...

spikethru4 Mar 06, 2013	A Tesco beefburger?
HABS2933 Mar 06, 2013	It has been a long time since I've seen it but as stated above, it is an old teaser, I think I was a kid the first time I saw it. A nice easy teaser for my birthday!
jaycr Mar 06, 2013	Easy teaser. Happy birthday Habs!
gaylewolf Mar 06, 2013	Cute teaser! Happy Birthday Habs! Hope you have a wonderful day!
supernova12 Mar 06, 2013	It's so creative! I got it right though. I think it's only because I've been playing so many brain teasers...
thecatladycac Mar 10, 2013	I took the "at" from cat, and the "at" from goat, and tried to pick out three more letters from "chicken" to go with them to make the name of another animal! Boy, was I way off!!
