How do you stumble on a peice of paper?
that one got me i thought it was 60 and 40
HAHA I get it! Cause if he he split it 60/40 like I thought then he would be up $20! Nice 1
good one, thanks
It could have been a trick. a "100 Bill" is not necessarily a $100 bill. It could have been in different currency, or perhaps, a bill for the dry cleaning.
Every time I think I've seen the lamest teaser here, I find a lamer one! Good job!
I agree, lame.
Here's a teaser: I'm thinking of an integer between 1 and 3, and it's not 1 and it's not 3. What number is it?
That "teaser" above would go in the same quality bucket as this one.
