funny
I've seen one like that in a book, so this was an easy one
lol good one.
Great one....................
I thought perhaps that if she continued in the established pattern that she wouldn't be outside at 90 so it would be impossible.
a goood one to fool people with!
since this is a trick teaser and people ger really picky about everything you say incase it's the trick, you never technically said she kept on her pattern of circles so I said she made three circles.
very cute, stumped my dumb boyfriend!
PEEIMP PEEIMP!!
Wow, I didn't get it...maybe that's because the answer is ridiculously stupid??? 'What is 1+1?' 'A number!' 'Which is bigger, 1 or 2?' 'The larger one!' 'When was I born?' 'My birthday!' etc.
A groaner, like all good trick teaser should be.
Oh lovely, I got it wrong, and my mom got it right.
I put:
The one that she fell asleep in.
The one that she fell asleep in.
Haha! GOOD ONE!
The answer's actually incorrect. It said she did the 3 circles. Did not say she continued after that. And it said she "completed" the circles. So as of 90 she was not in any circle. Then it asks "during" which circle.
