What What (In the Butt)?

Quiet, you!

Quiet, you!

I was going to refer Fantasypants to the Team page to let her know who has magical mod powers and who just writes for the site, but then I realised we don't even have that listed. Weird...

Giligan · 07-21-2009, 07:31 PM

That's because all of the mods are useless doodyheads, so we have to make them write too.

*Fantasysci5* · 07-21-2009, 07:53 PM

Hey! I'm a mod, and I'm pretty smart too.

Giligan · 07-21-2009, 08:01 PM

Not as smart as me, though. That's the real issue here, I'm afraid.

Trunkyo · 07-21-2009, 08:41 PM

OK, fellow smart people

, see if you can figure this one out:

One day Bart celebrated his birthday. Two days later his older identical twin brother Art, celebrated his birthday. How come?

Giligan · 07-21-2009, 08:46 PM

While his older brother was an identical twin, he was not, in fact, Bart's identical twin.

UPtimist · 07-22-2009, 01:17 AM

Or, they decided they wanted to have separate parties.

RLacey · 07-22-2009, 03:24 AM

One of them travelled backwards in time [see Star Trek]?

Art and Bart are each other's identical twin.

The celebration part is actually irrelevant, the fact that Art is the older twin is important, though.

Smart guy! I mean, smart ass.

The solution makes sense (but it's quite contrived)

, so don't give up. Or just give up and play MGS4 instead.

RLacey · 07-22-2009, 06:11 AM

If I ever own a PS3 I'll be sure to do that.

UPtimist · 07-22-2009, 07:39 AM

If I ever own a Playstation of any kind, I'll be sure not to do that.

I actually had a MGS for the ol' PC (actually still do, but it's not like it's installed or anything, and I'm not sure I could find it), but not really my cup of tea.

Anyways, back to the riddle: it was a really long labor

Or, between the children there was a switching of a calendar, so while the other brother was in fact older in the other calendar, they went back a few days before the birth of the second son and so he was actually according to the official time born two days earlier.

So, in a way, time-travel...

A significant percentage of my conversations of 2009 have included overt Metal Gear Solid references.

Good times...
