I wonder is baby number three on the way?
No question 'bout it. Todd'll quit college and become a buddhist monk when he finds out.

That Leanne is indeed looking washed up. Like the sort of trollop Wayne Rooney was spending his shekels on not so long ago.

Fucks sake, they didn't waste any time, did they?

Todd leaves after finding his dopey brother shagging that little minx on Wednesday night!!! :eek:

Pity I'll be at the Tommy Cooper Clause gig that night, might set the video.

Ta ra chuck.
 
Are you smarter than a 4 year old?

The following short quiz consists of 4 questions and tells whether you are
qualified to be a "professional". Scroll down for each answer.
The questions are not that difficult

1. How do you put a giraffe into a refrigerator?

{Scroll down after you've answered}














The correct answer is: Open the refrigerator door, put in the giraffe and
close the door. This question tests whether you tend to do simple things in
an overly complicated way.


2. How do you put an elephant into a refrigerator?





















Wrong Answer: Open the refrigerator door, put in the elephant and close the
refrigerator


Correct Answer: Open the refrigerator, take out the giraffe,put in the
elephant and close the door. This tests your ability to think through the
repercussions of your actions.



3. The Lion King is hosting an animal conference. All the animals attend
except one. Which animal does not attend?


















Correct Answer: The Elephant. The Elephant is in the refrigerator. This
tests your memory. OK, even if you did not answer the first three questions
correctly, you still have one more chance to show your abilities


4. There is a river you must cross. But it is inhabited by crocodiles. How
do you manage it?




















Correct Answer: You swim across. All the Crocodiles are attending the Animal
Meeting. This tests whether you learn quickly from your mistakes.




According to Andersen Consulting Worldwide, around 90% of the professionals
they tested got all questions wrong .But many preschoolers got several
correct answers. Anderson Consultng says this conclusively disproves the
theory that most professionals have the brains of a four year old.

several correct answers? but there were only four questions, so if they mean between the many preschoolers there were only several correct answers i'd say their brains were quite similar to 'professionals'.
or else the questions were just really stupid.
(i got none right:eek: )
 
Re: Are you smarter than a 4 year old?

aha! which one did you get?
i just don't think a giraffe would fit in my fridge so i got stuck at the very start.:D
 
Re: Are you smarter than a 4 year old?

Putting the elephant in the fridge.

Once I saw the first answer I'd nae bother with the 2nd, it had that same messed up sense of right going on.

3 and 4 threw me back off course...:D
 
Re: Are you smarter than a 4 year old?

Not sure about this closing the door part, surely whether the door is open or closed bears no relation to whether something is inside or outside? Also, if your fridge'll fit a giraffe, it's not that much of a stretch to fit the elephant as well.
Nowhere does it state that the fridge is the same fridge, or for that matter that the animal conference isn't being held at this river. Anyway, I'm just being pedantic for the sake of it.
 
Re: Are you smarter than a 4 year old?

i know, it's common response when you get zero answers right.

(see sadie above)
:)

Denial ain't just a river in Egypt...
 
Re: Are you smarter than a 4 year old?

Oh, and if the giraffe was going in my fridge, the fucker'd most likely be dead first (mmmm, giraffe steak) so it wouldn't make the animal conference either.

Actually, I'd pretty much all the answers the four year olds should have, except for the closing the door part. I presume this means I think like a four year old who doesn't like closing doors.

You were probably born in a barn...

:eek:

Are you the 2nd coming?
 
Re: Are you smarter than a 4 year old?

Not that I've noticed. Although I don't think JC's super powers showed up until he was 30 or that way, so maybe.


I want me some super powers. Or some claws like that Wolverine has.

it really shows that four year olds, and andersen consulting, are not thoroughly familiar with the connection between meaning and structure in language; consistent logical schema; or occam's razor.

perhaps we should all be less concerned with the mechanics of fitting animals into fridges, and more concerned with a social and educational system that neglects the core principles of understanding and knowledge. mmm, shouldn't we.
 
Re: Are you smarter than a 4 year old?

I got all the answers right. Only because I asked my brother as I was going along and he knew them because he got that as an e-mail before. Does that make me smart? No probably not. I'm still drunk from last night. I'm in the South of France, so it's allowed... Suckers.

Yes it does. It shows that you have learned the internet is a mine of useless information constantly neing regurgitated and dumped in random punter's inboxes.

Sing with me...

I am so smart, I am so smart, s-m-r-t....I mean s-m-A-r-t.
