Are you defined by what you love or what you hate?

[chen zhen]

[Shuul Vis]

If a mime falls dead in the forest and no one is there to hear it....does anyone care?

[Royal Dragon]

If a Mime falls dead ANYWHER, does anyone care?

[shaolin kungfu]

no

[SevenStar]

If a mime falls dead, how do you know he's really dead and not just miming?

[SevenStar]

What is the meaning of life?

[SevenStar]

In front of you are two gates, one of them leads to paradise and the other to instant death.

There are two guards: one always lies and one always tells the truth. You may ask only one question to one guard to find out which is the right gate. You don't know which of them lies or tells the truth.

What'll be your question?

[chen zhen]

"Let us BATTLE!"
then u defeat them both and go through the right gate.
Easy one. Next! :D ;)
No seriously, I don't know. I'll hang around here and find out if someone can actually answer it. I love riddles.;)

[Chang Style Novice]

Did Notorious B I G have 2Pac killed? And was he himself killed in retaliation (or perhaps merely percieved retaliation)?

[Chang Style Novice]

Anyway, do the guards even know which gate they're guarding?

[Royal Dragon]

SevenStar ,
I'd pick one, and ask him what the other would answer. if he's the one telling the truth, he will respond with a lie, because the other one could only lie, and the truthful answere would be to tell you what the liear would say. If he's the liear, he's STILL going to respond with a lie, because he'd have to lie about the other's answer. Either way, you know the answer is a lie, so you can pick the opposing door with confidence.

[chen zhen]

But both the the one talking the truth and the lying one will say: The other is lying. How would you know?:eek:

How would Snoop Dogg say Ben Gazzara's name?

Do you have to brush your teeth during a fast?


Why do they call it a fast when it goes so **** slow?


Why are there locks on the door of the convienent store that's open 24 hours?


Why are the needles used in lethal injection sterilized?


If a chinese person leaves China, does he become disoriented?


And why the f*** do they have BRAIL on the touch pad at a drive thru ATM???

1) Yes, cos of bad breath.

2) To be locked when people want to have orgies with pigs and dwarves.

3) Cos the hospital can charge some extra cents for using a new needle.

4) Nah.

5) I wish i knew what brail and atm are.

[Shaolin-Do]

"5) I wish i knew what brail and atm are."

Good answer - that's correct.

one ALWAYS tells the truth. the other ALWAYS lies. consequently, if you ask the one telling the truth, he will tell you that the liar will say to pick the left door, for example. Well, the liar always lies. That means you should pick the door on the right.

It you ask the liar, and he says that the other one would say to pick the left door (which he has to tell you that lie, because he always lies) then you know that the real door is the one on the right.

either way, you win.

[chen zhen]

Who did Burt Reynolds play? Smokey or the Bandit?


:D

[chen zhen]

[Chang Style Novice]

Seven Star -

I repeat, what makes you think the guards know what's behind each door?

Smokey & the Bandit is truly a mystery.

I have it on good confidence that they were told - they are guardians and thusly are informed of exactly what they are guarding.

to screw it.

[dezhen2001]

7*: did the gatekeeper and keymaster really know what they were guarding? :p

dawood

[chen zhen]

I actually wanna know if either Smokey or the Bandit was played by Burt Reynolds..:(

:p

[SevenStar]

The gatekeeper did. The keymaster probably did, but he was such a bumbling idiot...

[dezhen2001]

well its been that long since i saw either i couldnt say if a) smokey OR the bandit were burt reynolds and b) if the gatekeeper or keymaster actually knew what they were guarding...

chen zhen - id kinda like to know that too coz i thought burt was in the cross-country racing movie with jackie chan and roger moore which name escapes me right now... thunderball? or is that a Bond movie :confused:

dawood

[ZIM]

Gatekeeper/keymaster...you guys are reminding me of ghostbusters, i think...

scout, yes. & "to perform an unnatural act."

And Bandit, ya git. :p Smokey was the cop.

'nuzzer big question: What was Astro's original name? You know, Astro, from the Jetson's? Bonus points: write it like Astro would say it! :D

'nuzzer one: how come we can't come up with really big Q's, only trivia? :p

Just saw your Q's dezhen- yeah, burt, rog and jackie [we're all on first names, yep] were in that two movie thing, but the name escapes me, too. Thunderball was bond, maybe.

[chen zhen]

:D

I don't think Reynolds have been in a movie with Jackie Chan..

& yes, he was either Smokey OR the Bandit, that we do know.;)

[Evad]

Burt played the Bandit.

Smokey was the sheriff Buford T Justice played by Jackie Gleason that chased him.

[dezhen2001]

big questions are answerable, trivia well... isnt :D

all i remember burt from is a glasses advertisment here in the UK lol

dawood

[dezhen2001]

good man! finally!

dawood

[ZIM]

see above. Bandit!!!! i saw it when i was a kid, geeziz.

[chen zhen]

:p

I only mentioned it because it sounded funny..

[Evad]

heres one count the math as you go through the events in the story.


Three traveling business men find a hotel to stay at advertised at $30 per night.

They decide to split the cost of the room evenly.

How much did each pay?

Very good $30. After they go to there room, the cashier realizes that he a made mistake, the rooms are on special that night for $25/night. So how much does he owe in refund?

$5, very good we all graduated 1st grade, but the cashier has a problem, he doesn't have a 5 dollar bill, so he uses five $1's. He instructs the bellboy to take the refund to the gentlemen in their room.

The bellboy is not that bright, so as he's going to the room he thinks, how do you divide five into three? Then he gets an idea, he takes two dollars and puts in his pocket for a tip. Then he refunds each person one dollar.

So now let's recap. Each business man was refunded one dollar, how much did they pay for the room now?

$9

what's 9 plus 9?

18

plus 9 again equals?

27

plus the two dollars in the bellboy's pocket?

29


Where did the other dollar go?

[Repulsive Monkey]

One should never be defined by either if you want a true definition of someone. Saying that focusing on hate leads to the dark side.

[Chang Style Novice]

Jackie Chan was not in Smokey and the Bandit. The Burt Reynolds car-crash movie he was in was Cannonball Run, or possibly Cannonball Run II.

"'nuzzer one: how come we can't come up with really big Q's, only trivia? "

That's easy! We're idiots.

[chen zhen]

Jackie Chan was not in Smokey and the Bandit.

Who ever said he was?!:eek: :confused:

:D

It's minus the $2 in the bellboys pocket not plus it.

[brothernumber9]

what was 9 bucks and why was it multiplied three times? it does not make sense. Chewbacca's a wookie, ewoks live on endor, why would a wookie live on endor? it does not make sense, therefore you must aquit.
