Hi there, miss. [fiddling absently with hat]
Oh! Farmers! I know this really good puzzle about farmers!

On a farm there are three paddocks. In one paddock there are seven stacks of hay, in the second paddock there are 8 stacks of hay. There is no hay in the third paddock. The farmer then combines the haystacks from the first and second paddocks into the third paddock.
How many haystacks will the farmer now have?

Is the answer one?

CORRECT

Sure is! [seems quite over the moon that she got it.] 'Cause they're all combined.

LITTLE MIO ISN"T AS GOOD AT PUZZLES AS THE OLDER ONE. :/ the_remaining August 17 2008, 18:26:59 UTC
None, right? 'cause it's all in one paddock, and it's technically not the farmer's anymore, right? *grin* It's the paddock's!

But if this is one of those obvious ones, then, uh... 15, right? 7 + 8 is 15, right?

((Also, mun was lazy and didn't want to log out- pretend that's a kid icon. xD; ))

[smug smile] It's one. Durrrrrh.
Because all of the haystacks are combined.

[grudgingly] But I guess even I get 'em wrong sometimes. You shouldn't give up.

Humph. *pout*

That makes sense too, I guess, but I like my way better!

Gimmie another one! I'll get this one right, I promise! *determined look*

Yeah, but...[frustrated] Every puzzle has an answer! And yours was wrong. Sorry.

...Here's another one, I guess.

You are driving a car one stormy night. You pass a bus station. There are three people who are waiting for the bus: One old sick lady who is dying, One doctor who saved your life before, and one lady who is someone you have been dreaming to be with.

You can only take one passenger, which one will you choose?

I wasn't wrong- I was just looking at it from a different angle! There's never just one answer, silly! There's always tons of 'em, if ya know how to look!

*ponders* Hrm... Well, why would I only have to take one? I mean, how big's this car? Can't I just take all three? Put one in the front passenger seat, and two in the back? It is a car, right?
