5 LATERAL THINKING PUZZLES

5 Lateral Thinking Puzzles

  

Q1 ) Take away one of the letters in this grid and yet still leave all 26 letters of the alphabet. Which letter can be taken away?

Solution : Q . I'll buy a Q (as if it costs money), for the same reason as before ( meaning, the overall structure describes the letter in question).

My Thoughts : I chose the letter H because it was outside the box of 5 by 6. Saw the solution and instantly i thought to myself , " this is so fucking dumb. I gotta find 4 more questions with retarded solutions ?" #LifeOfANafaStudent .. I am more of a literal type of person , not lateral but it's being graded so i have no choice but to participate in updating my blogs.

Q2 ) What six-letter word is missing from this sequence?

DIRECT
ROLE
OCCIDENTAL
DARE
??????
SHADOW
AMUSED

Solution : ANSWER.The middle two letters of each word become the first and last letter of the next one.

My thoughts : Another dumb fucking question with another dumb solution. It could be fucking anything but it has to be ANSWER ? I need to fill up a minimum of 50 words for every puzzles so i'm just gonna bullshit my way through. Hope i don't get sacked for using profanities. That's more than 50 words right ?

Q3 )Which home below is incomplete?

Solution : ABODE. (All of the above). The O in ABCDE is incomplete

My thoughts : ABODE ? SERIOUSLY ? ABODE ?! BECAUSE THE "C" IS ACTUALLY AN IN-COMPLETED "O" ?! OH MY GOD ! I'm getting so pissed off at every single question and solution that came to me. Still can't believe it's abode. Come on! Nobody could think of that! So dumb.

Q4 ) After hours of searching the castle you eventually find the mysterious Room 88 at the end of a long gloomy corridor. Appropriately enough, it has 'R88' on it. You try to open the door, but it is locked. Suddenly a ghostly voice from inside murmurs: 'Say the magic word and the door will open.' What word should you say?

Solution : VOODOO.The figure given for R88 contains the letters in VOODOO.

My thoughts : I can see that it's voodoo AFTER i found the solution. I couldn't solve this question but I am NOT stupid ! THE WHOLE QUESTION IS STUPID! "Say the magic word and the door will open" What the fuck is this ? Fucking fairy tale shit? And who the fuck would search a castle ? Let alone listen to a fucking ghostly voice! The words i would bloody say is "FUCKKK !!" and I would scram my fat ass out of the freaking castle.

Q5 ) A, B, C and D are four sleeping ladybugs on a perfectly flat tabletop. What is the direct distance between ladybugs A and C?

Solution : 1cm. AB + AD and BC + CD are both equal to BD , so the four ladybugs must actually lie in a straight line as follows :

My thoughts : I wanna fucking cry. This is so stupid. I used to be pretty good in mathematics during my secondary school times. NEVER had i encountered these stupid question. I could put Ladybug C all the to the end and it would change the entire answer right ? It could be anything i want it to be? Why isn't maths like this back in secondary school? Questions could be to find the angle of ABC and I could write anything because i could move the fucking lines? So stupid.

Conclusion

It was pretty interesting to try out though , but I find everything totally stupid. I got 2/10 for this lateral thinking test and i could say , that i am proud of it. Would try it with different questions but i would guarantee get pissed off at myself and the whole world.
