During WW1, metal helmets replaced the cloth caps that soldiers used before. Yet head injuries were at an all time high that year. How?


Not sure of the wording, heard it a while ago, but it was something like the above...

[iamwiz82]

i have a $5 bill somewhere on my body, find it and you can keep it. HINT: its not in my pockets

I don't know what's in your pocket, but -

The man who builds it doesn't want it.
The man who buys it won't be using it.
The man who uses it never sees it.

What is it (Clue: The word has six letters)?

There is always the classic one...

Three guys check into a hotel. The room cost $25. They each gave the guy a $10 dollar bill. The attendent did not have change so he said he would send up the bellhop later with $5. The bell boy came up with 5 $1 dollar bills. They each kept one dollar and gave the bellhop a tip of $2. They each originally spent $10 dollars and got $1 back, which is a net of $9. 3x$9 is $27 plus the $2 dollar bellhop tip... Where did the other dollar go?

The problem is in the math. It's 25+2 and 30-3, not 25+3 or 30-2 (which makes 27)

The main character in the story is a girl. When she was at the funeral of her own mother, she met a guy who was also there, but she did not know who he was. This guy happened to be her dream guy, so she fell in love with him at once...
A few days later, the girl killed her own sister. When the police asked her why she did that she gave a shocking answer... What is her motive in killing her sister?

I've heard this one before. She wanted to see the dream guy at her sister's funeral.

There is a pole in a lake. One-half of the pole is in the ground, another one-third of it is covered by water, and 12 ft is out of the water. What is the total length of the pole in ft?

boo....

now that i think about it, i think this is where i heard it first... oh well

"Answer:

She was hoping that the guy would appear at the funeral again !

If you answered this correctly, go to the police and tell them to lock you up. This was a test by famous American psychologists used to test if one has the same mentality as a killer. Many arrested serial killers took part in this test and answered it correctly. If you didn't answer correctly, good for you. If your friends hit the jackpot, may I suggest that you keep your distance."

guess you gotta go turn yourself in

because soldiers were surviving shots to the head that would of otherwise killed them, but they were also incurring head injuries.
