How many .blends could a Blenderhead blend, if a Blenderhead could blend .blends!!!
Matt
Blend on, and blend well!!!
As much .blends as a Blenderhead could blend if a Blenderhead could blend .blends!
Answer me that!
hehe some mates of mine pulled a phone prank on a guy using that once, pretending it was a radio promotion “how much wood can a wood chuck chuck, if a wood chuck could chuck wood? provided a wood chuck can chuck 10 woods, how much wood could a wood chuck chuck?”
“uh, uh, 10?”
“aawww no, sorry, the answer was 15, tough luck mate”
“oh man it is too, dammit”
“har har har har”
I don’t know about woodchucks, but most people I know don’t chuck wood even though theoretically they could. Don’t see why a woodchuck would be different. Change it to “How much wood would a woodchuck have to chuck to support his wife and kids if the minimum wage for woodcucks is 14 cents/hour and the air speed velocity of an african swallow carrying a …”
Hmm… that’s not it either
“Why would a woodchuck want to chuck wood if a woodchuck could chuck wood?”
I think you’re mistaken… it’s somewhere around 3 cords (or is that use spelled “chord”? Can’t remember).
Imp
what are taquitos?
I want some taquitos.
You got the last line from Monty Python!
Taquitos are a type of food thingy that you wrap and eat and enjoy.
Theyt are kind of like egg rolls, but better.
How much wood could a wood chuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood? A woodchuck would chuck all the wood if a woodchuck could chuck wood!
Now… if Train A is going at 35 mph, Train B is going at 2 mph, and Train C is going at 186,000 mps (miles per second, the speed of light), when will they meet? Answer: Never, they’re going parallel to each other
Next up, for you, Valarking, how much sh*t can CubeFan973 post, provided he were given infinite resources to use and 5 minutes to do it in?
Only 5 minutes? I figure you can get us about neck deep in it.

Tell me how far apart the train are and what direction each of the trains are heading and I’ll give you exactly where they meet.
I see you all like voting in multiples of seven… 7%, 7%, 7%, 14%, 28%…
We skipped 21 though.
Bafoon: The samll text reads that they’re going parallel to each other.
They’d never meet, just in case you didn’t think that geometry was a subject better than dating.
new puzzle: What… eh, I’ll make another post for that one.
New puzzle: There are two doors. One goes to the City Of Truth, where everbody can only speak the truth. The other goes to the City Of Lies, where everybody can only tell lies. The doors can talk, reflecting on where they go. You want to go to the City Of Truth, bu there are no labels. What question do you ask them to get there?
Ask them what door the other door would tell them to go through, and then go throught the other door.
Goo
Simple, ask them, “Are you a door”, or some other simple, yet obvious quesiton. For that one, the door to the city of truth would say “yes”, the door to the city of lies would say “no”.
Well… you’d have to guess that neither door would want to go through the other.
Truth - Would want to go through the door to the city of truth.
Lies - Would want to go through the door to the city of lies. (They lie, they can’t lie in the city of truth).
Now, that’s what they’d each want, what would they say?
Truth - Would tell you to go through the door to the city of truth, so itself.
Lies - As it would have to lie, it would tell you to go through the door to the city of truth.
Now, that’s what each door would say (which, asking which door it’d go through itself would work… you said to ask what the OTHER door would say).
Truth - Would tell you the other door would say to go through itself (truth).
Lies - Well, the other door would say to go through the other door, and this door has to lie, it would just say, “The other door would say to go through me!” (lies).
Each door would tell you itself, so it’d be no help. Of course, for this to work, your initial guess as to which door each would go through would have to be correct. So… why not choose a question you KNOW the answer to… “What color is my hair?”

The way I heard the thing with the doors was different, and better. Cubefan’s version has a bunch of different answers, like Improvisar said. The version I heard was something like:
There are two doors, one leads to big happy awesome Blender heaven with undo or something, and the other one leads to something crappy. Once you go through one of the doors you can’t go back. There are two guards in front of the doors. One of them always tells the truth, and the other one always lies. They both look the same and you don’t know which is which. You can only ask one question, to one guard. What question do you ask that guarantees you get the right answer, no matter which guard you ask?
The question you have to ask is, “What would the other guard say if I asked him which door leads to the crappy stuff?”
Yup WierdHat, that verson sounds much more familiar (and is a much tougher problem too.)
Imp
Why not just throttle both the guards within an inch of their lives, and when they are being taken away in the ambulance, sneek a peek at both of the doors…
Matt
Blend on, and blend well!!!
