An Odd Situation

Situation puzzles (sometimes called lateral thinking puzzles) are ones where you need to ask lots of yes or no questions to figure out what happened in the situation. These are good puzzles for groups where one person knows the puzzle and answers the questions.

Heh, never would have thought of that. I thought it was like, he saw a really expensive watch on the ground and had to stop smoking momentarily to pick it up? Yeah, random, weird, I know.

yay i got it! i was actually being sarcastic when saying, 'omg i bet he's being hypnotized' then i guessed a more logical answer and it was wrong but i still got it half-right!

It's known as a fob watch or pocket watch... and it is a "normal" watch, but it's not a wrist watch.

I started thinking "watch tower" or "watchman", so thinking "Was there a fire? Is he smoking in a no smoking area and a watchman (cop) came along?"

Not bad, but too vague.

yeah , too vague. The answer wasn't too clear. The hypnosise never tells him to stop smoking. I'm kind of confused

LOL! I thought he looked at his watch to see what time it was, (this unusual watch)...and it said it was time to QUIT (smoking)

I was thinking that it was almost midnight just before International No-Smoking Day (there is a day, not sure exactly what it's called though), and then he looked at his watch and noticed that it's midnight.
