Need another room!

ok4now by ok4now · Apr 17, 2003 · 107 views · Geek

with all this sci fi talk, i thought i'd add a little trivia. (i'll avoid proposing it as so-called news cuz then it'd just sit on hold)


let's say there's a hotel with an infinite number of rooms.



when a new guest shows up, which room do you give them?

You screwed it up, it supposed to be:


Imagine you have a hotel with an infinite number of rooms that are all occupied. A new guest shows up, how do you fit him in?


The answer is to move the guest from Room 1 to Room 2, The guest from Room 2 to Room 3, etc., ad infinitum. Leaving Room 1 empty for the new guest.

Here's the traslation for Stef:


Imgine u haave uh htel wth n infte nmbr uv roooooms tht are al occyoupied. A knew gest shuws up, haw do you fit him inn?

The anser is to moove the gest frum Room 1 to Room 2, The guist from Room 2 to Room 3, etc., ad infin... add fini...forevur. Leaving Room 1 empty for the gnu gust.

That is wrong on so many levels, but is probably in the top ten for funny here on ezabel...
