An ode to Edward De Bono. Who claims to have invented the idea of Lateral Thinking.
This are some questions asked in psychometric tests employed by many MNCs. It is claimed that these questions highlight if a man has the problem solving or lateral thinking capability. A man ruined my afternoon with these 'chalis' and i think i should share it with someone. Answer it if you can.
1. Anthony and Cleopatra are found dead in a room. A man enters the room and sees an empty bowl with the whole water spilled on the wooden floor. A cat runs out scared. How did they die?
:> Anthony and Cleopatra are fishes. The cat took them out of the bowl intending to eat, but ran off seeing the man enter.
2. A man working with the finance department lives on the 14th floor of an apartment and comes down to go to work every single day by lift. When he arrives back in the evening, he looks around to see if anyone is around. if someone is around he goes straight to the 14th floor,else he gets down at the 8th floor and climbs up to the 14th floor. Why does he climb?
:> He's a dwarf. He can't reach the 14th floor button on the lift by himself.
There're some more, but this much will do for now. Njoy.

I'dnt have been this pissed off if he was the only guy whose afternoon was ruined by the aforementioned Psycho. There was a whole bunch of us and from the looks of it, we're in for more. The shitbag has memorised a whole book of these 'lateral thinking' joke-like-things..
