lol. Good teaser!
if it was dropped on a chair, that would be a pretty long distance for an ant, or ants to travel in that short time.

Ants don't die if you sit on them, they have a strong body and would have to be squished by something hard. You can't even squish them with your finger, it would have to be your fingernail.
marc someone could work out and there buttox could become muscular so the ants can be squished
wait why was sugar randomly dropped on a chair...and how were the ants in this party?

That's kind of gross. And what if the ants stung you before they died. That would really hurt. And wouldn't be my favorite place to have ant bites.
1. Why would a person randomly be carrying sugar!
2. Where did the ants come from?
3. How did they get on a chair so fast?

This is dumb. It is pretty much like having a brain teaser going like this, " Somebody dropped something. Someone laughed. Then they cried. Answer: Oh, some random person dropped a toy and it landed on their foot and at first it tickled and then the toy turned heavy" THis brain teaser is too detailed and needs to be revised.
If you agree this is a dumb teaser, respond to superfluff 4 (doggy, come here!)

I gotta admit, this is not a very good one in my opinion.
"Something stopped." The music stops.
"A person dropped some edible sugar." Someone drops sugar (random). And in the next 5 seconds before someone can even sit down on the chair, "a lot" of ants climb the chair to swarm the sugar?
