You're in a room, and you have only one match. In the room is a candle, a gas stove, and a gas heater. Which item do you light first?

New one.
3 men in a boat after being shipwrecked
They have nothing
No clothes
No possesions
Just two cigaretts.
All three men want to smoke the cigarettes, what do they do?.
Capuchin
Feb 4, 2008, 05:06 PM
Sail home? They can't light the cigarettes anyway..?
raggablue
Feb 4, 2008, 05:48 PM
Nope ha ha, they have no way to get to dry land, they're going to die.
So what do they do?

Feb 4, 2008, 06:56 PM
I don't but here's one.
What would you do if you were locked inside a car and all you had was a bat . How would you get out?
raggablue
Feb 4, 2008, 06:57 PM
What kind of bat?
ineedhelpfast
Feb 4, 2008, 07:16 PM
Baseball bat sorry
giani513
Feb 4, 2008, 10:24 PM
Well... you could use the bat to smash a window, but that would cause damage to the car... I guess I'd prefer to just unlock the door since I'm inside the car, and let myself out.
ineedhelpfast

Yep your pretty smart

They throw one of the smokes overboard
... thus...
Their boat becomes one ciggarett lighter
Capuchin
Feb 22, 2008, 07:33 PM
they throw one of the smokes overboard
...thus...
their boat becomes one ciggarett lighter
And then they all die? That's not very satisfactory, I'd keep the boat as a boat. And strictly the boat is still the same weight so...

It doesn't transform dufus, it's a play on words.

A cig lighter... get it... a lighter to light their cig... it is a play on words... like the boat got lighter in weight... but it means "one cigarette lighter" literally... get it now? They can light the cigarette... yes, it was corny... but we love corny!
Hahahahaha

How would you even compare 'gas prices' with movemant. This makes nooo sense to me.
ms180sx

Techniclly, the gas isn't moving, the prices can change. Stairs was already taken.lol

Mar 25, 2008, 08:50 AM
Lol.. yeah I figured that prices, being abstract to a point don't move, while they can go up and down. I guess they move, so that was a bad answer. It all depends on your interpatation of movement.

What question can you never answer "yes" to?
Are you dead??
Alty

Wow, I guess that makes two questions you can never answer "yes" to.
I was looking for "Are you asleep?"
"Are you dead?" is better though.

All the information I could find says it's the other way around.
Perhaps life just seems to go by quickly when you're having the fun of being married?
