no, I have a better game. first, you find a thread you don't like and leave a comment expressing such. then, and this is the good part, you start another pointless thread so the cool kids can appreciate your mastery of sarcasm.

i've already got part 1 down, who knows what i'll do for part 2! :dance:

:applaud:
 
ooh...ironic!

anyone else see it?

no?

that's probably cause your mind's on another chat thread!

hop to it, then!
 
4 men have to cross a bridge. Zoomerang is under the bridge and will drug anyone who falls from its heights, before shoving them into the back of the muss buss and subjecting them to hours upon hours of canadian indie groups who admittedly are pretty good. anyway, they need to cross. and there's 4 of them.

they have 17 minutes, and no more than 2 can cross at a time. there's only one flashlight and it must be used every trip to prevent the fate described above. Person 1 takes 2 min, 2 takes 2 min, 3 takes 5 min, 4 takes 10 min. If they cross in pairs they take the slower person's time in crossing. how could they get across in 17 minutes?

i bet you'll never guess.
 
i've seen this one before, one of them takes 1 minute to get across.

No 1 & No 2 cross: 2
No 2 comes back with flashlight 2
No 3 & No 4 cross: 10
No 1 comes back with flashlight 1
No 1 & 2 go across 2
