Here's another one.

Three guys walk into a hotel and rent a room for $30.00 bucks a night. So the three men split the bill $10.00 a piece and proceed to their room.

The manager forgets about their $5.00 discount , and gives the bellhop $5.00 to return to the 3 guests. However, the bellhop decideds to keep $2.00 for himself and gives the guests back $3.00 as apart of their discount. The men divide the $3.00 equally ($1.00 a piece).

Now, technically the three men spent $9.00 dollars each totalling $27.00 dollars (3x9 = 27) and the bellhop has the other $2.00. so $27.00 + $2.00 = $29.00 dollars. What happeneded to that $1.00?

There was no last dollar. They didnt spend it, they only spent $29

The logic is flawed and is meant to confuse the reader. The bill was originally $30 ($10 per person) and with the discount of $5 it was then $25. So there is $25 in the cash register and $5 for the discount. The bellhop keeps $2 and gives the guest back $3. Thus the $30 is divided as follows: $25 in register, $2 for bellhop, $3 with guests. In the end the guests paid $27 (9 a piece) for what should have been a $25 room and the remaining $2 is what the bell hop kept!

Score...

Now here's a tricky one:

A man is walking on the beach, just after taking a long swim in his clothes. He sees a restaurant on the beach. He walks into the restaurant and gets seated. He looks at the menu and orders seagull soup. The waitress brings out the soup, he takes one bite, realizes something & runs out onto the road and gets killed.

The question is: why did he freak out?

Answer: She reasoned that if the guy appeared at her mother's funeral, then he might appear another family funeral.
If you answered this correctly, you think like a psychopath. This was a test by a famous American psychologist used to test if one has the same mentality as a killer. Many arrested serial killers took part in this test and answered correctly.

That's what I was thinking... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif
Does that make me a psychopath?

A crab was in his shorts and bit his nuts.
