This is an interesting math problem from grade 1 pupil:)

youless @youless (112481) • Guangzhou, China 25 Jan 09

If you and 9 friends go to a restaurant together. Suppose that there are 3 pieces of bread in one plate, 4 apples in one basket and 5 meatballs in one bowl. How many plates, baskets and bowls you order so that each person will...

sumimasen This is a funny logic question, but let's break it down: 9 Friends, each one has to have bread, apples, and meatballs. Ordering 3 plates of bread gives you: 9 pieces of bread, 12 apples, and 15 meatballs.

Discussions that sound like an ad!!!

baileycows @baileycows (3665) • United States 24 Jun 08

Is anyone else tired of people posting discussions that sounds like ads and asking for referrals. There is nothing to really discuss. Just a generalized statement or something informative.

sumimasen I like pan pizza, which is usually best served hot. If you've never had Chicago-style pizza, you're missing out! It's basically a pie-crust, with about an inch-thick of cheese and toppings, with the sauce on TOP. It's one of the best pizza experiences in...

sumimasen I think that many of the great American actors have been sleeping lately, or doing B+ jobs. One surprise that I actually liked was Casey Affleck. I think most of his roles were lame and kitschy, but I think he really deserved that nomination.

Did you watch 80th Oscar Annual Academy Awards?

youless @youless (112481) • Guangzhou, China 26 Feb 08

I watched it last night. To be frank, I have watched only one Oscar movie. Therefore, I am not so familiar with the candidates. I am not so interested in the films like There Will Be Blood, No Country For An Old Man etc.

sumimasen I agree, there weren't many great movies this year. Although they were very compelling, there weren't any extremely excellent movies. I saw many decent films that were worthwhile, but none of them really made me feel like they were unique items.
