That was good, but let's be fair now, how often do people drive 80
miles per hour? I mean, what if it's raining? : )


Then we drive 95 mph...


Here's a similar problem for everyone who thinks they are lots smarter
than the women in the story.

Assume one person can paint a room in 1 hour, and a second (slower)
person can paint a similar room in 2 hours. How long will it take them
to paint such a room together.

it's an algebra problem. Don't get distracted..lol.


Yea but it will still take at least four hours to properly prep the
room by either of them.
