How do you rate as a professional??? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

This is a 4 question quiz to see just how much of a professional you really are. The questions are easy but 90% of "professionals" got them all wrong, but many preschoolers got several right..... I'll post the first question then wait until someone guesses before giving the answer and the next question.

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

You take out the hippos! Haha. j/k. Umm.. headfirst? *shrugs*

I'd kill it, cut it up into small pieces, and stuff them in there!

I hate questions like that! You're never really sure what the correct answer is.
The simple answer is that you can't get a giraffe into a fridge - it's just not possible! The reason that school kids get those questions "correct" more often than adults is cos adults will sit there and analyse the question cos they're convinced there must be something more to it. Whereas children will just tell you straight away to stop being stupid and that giraffes just don't fit in refridgerators!

I'm with Mossopp on that one...

Either that, or it's something stupid like "Open the fridge door, put the giraffe inside, close the door." (I once got some email with a huge listof elephant jokes, and that was the answer to "How do you get an elephant in a fridge?")

I guess that just goes to show that maybe people shouldn't analyze things so much. Little kids are so simple minded *sigh* I wish I could be like that sometimes...more people should probably think like little kids. The world might be a less complicated place.

You open the refridgerator door, put the girraffe in, and close it.

XoVanillaRain90oX · 03-10-2002, 06:38 PM

FOLRox09 · 03-10-2002, 07:21 PM

Empty every shelf and item from the refrigerator and cut it up and stuff it in.

Hollow · 03-10-2002, 07:43 PM

Put it in a ball and stuff it in there lol

Esperanza · 03-10-2002, 10:25 PM

lol... a few of you got this right... the correct answer is
Open the refrigerator, put in the giraffe and close the door. This question tests whether you tend to do simple things in an overly
complicated way.

Question 2: How do you put an elephant into a refrigerator?

Ah, so my second guess was right...

Allright, you open the door, take the giraffe out, put the elephant in, close the door.
