You want a shirt. It is $97. You borrow $50 from your mom, and 50$ (50+50=100) from your dad and buy the shirt. You have $3 change. You give $1 to your mom, $1 to your dad, and keep $1 for yourself. You now owe your mom $49 and your dad $49. But $49 + $49 + $1 (the dollar you kept) only equals $99, where is the extra dollar?

First? You'd have to be lapping him in order to pass the guy in last.


A man and his son were in a terrible accident, the man died. The son was rushed into emergency surgery. The doctor walked into the room looked down at the boy and said "I can't operate on this boy, he's my son". How is this possible?

49+48=97 not 48+48, thus there is no extra dollar. Boom.

A doctor and a bus driver are both in love with the same woman, an attractive girl named Sarah. The bus driver had to go on a long bustrip that would last a week. Before he left, he gave Sarah seven apples. Why?

oh im definitely in.

Riddle me this one..

A bus driver was heading down a street in Colorado. He went right past a stop sign without stopping, he turned left where there was a "no left turn" sign and he went the wrong way on a one-way street. Then he went on the left side of the road past a cop car. Still - he didn't break any traffic laws. Why not?

sorry for dub post.


A farmer needs to get across a river with his items. He has a chicken, a fox, and a bag of grain.

He has one boat. It is very small. He can only fit one item and himself in the boat at one time.

If he leaves the fox alone with the chicken, the fox will eat chicken. If he leaves the chicken alone with the bag of grain, the chicken will eat the grain.

How can he get all his items over without any of them getting eaten?

first he would bring the chicken
then bring over the bag of grain and bring back the chicken
then he would bring the fox to the island
and finally bring back over the chicken

You saw a shirt worth $97.
Since you don't have cash, you borrowed $50 from your mom, and $50 from your dad
So, you have $100
Since the shirt is $97 dollars, you still have $3 dollars left over
You gave $1 to your mom, and $1 to your dad, and you keep $1 for yourself

Question: Now you owe 49+49= 98 Plus the $1 you have, 98+1= 99

Where's the missing dollar?

I was stumped for so long on this one :p

If they both walk in a circle, one clockwise and one counter clockwise, they will meet back at the same point.

No because your dollar is already accounted for, look at the original riddle i posted and see if you can make sense of it.

And it wasn't my math homework, just a riddle my math teacher gave me.

Two cops walked into a room with no windows and found a dead man who obviously hung himself from the ceiling, though they couldn't figure out how. There was no chair beneath him that he might have jumped off of, or a table. Just a puddle of water. How did he do it?

he was in a hot air balloon with two flying buddies. they were crossing the desert and on the other side was a mountain range. in fear of colliding with a mountain the crew tossed all un needed weight overboard. (clothes.. ect) in a final effort to make it over the mountain the three drew straws as to who would bail overboard to save the others.


BOOM, haha i came here to post that one..

Haha this is a sick thread

You are on a horse, galloping at a constant speed. On your right is a sharp drop off, and on your left is an elephant thundering along at the same speed as you. Directly infront of you is a galloping kangaroo and your horse is unable to overtake it. Behind you is a lion running at the same speed as you and the kangaroo. What must you do to safely get out of this highly dangerous situation?
