    What Gives?

    Does it add up?

    Unbalancing the paperclip.

    Kind of makes me think about the Egyptian religious belief of weighing the heart in the afterlife against a feather. I wonder if that scale was rigged like this?

    Rigging the scales.

    I don't know... this is a tough one, I can't think of anything funny...
