Indeed, I've seen many of these questions AND answers around the internet usually in the form of a joke.

What I find most funny is that someone actually turned these witty jokes into a "pre-test" complete with answers and marking. They obviously tried to make it look legitimate and original, even though it's just a collection of plagiarized work. Why do this? To get attention!

Some sad person thought this up to get attention. That IS funny. :lol:

It's just that the questions are all obviously designed to give a lateral answer. No test is like that. Not even Mensa's.

I am a member of Mensa. It's a lame organisation and I don't know why I ever joined. I never go to any of their events.

The Einstein-level is too high for my taste.

The first time I arrived at such an event, I was like:

And subsequently left.

Joining MENSA is like getting an arts degree, you can do it... but what's the point. Instead I settle for the Royal Society of NZ, only because they fund my research.
