Joker went for an interview with one of the major blue chip computer companies.
When the interview was over, the interviewer told him that all applicants had to complete a test. The interviewer took a piece of paper and drew six vertical lines in pairs of two on the paper and placed it in front of the Joker.
“Could you please show me a clever way to make this into nine?”
After thinking for a while, the Joker took the pencil, drew a canopy of leaves on top of the three pairs of lines, and handed the paper back to the interviewer.
The interviewer looked at the drawings and said: “But that is not nine!”
“Oh yes, it is”, said the Joker with a broad accent, “Tree + Tree + Tree make nine!”
The interviewer returned the paper to the Joker and asked him to make it 99.
After thinking for a long while, the Joker scribbled up and down the trunks and handed the paper back to the interviewer.
The interviewer looked at the drawings and said: “But that is not ninety-nine!” “Oh yes, it is”, said the Joker, “D*rty tree + d*rty tree + d*rty tree make ninety-nine.”
The interviewer was now a b*t cheesed off, so he decided to do the Joker once and for all; therefore, he handed the paper back to the Joker and asked him to make it 100.
After thinking for a considerably longer time, the Joker suddenly grabbed the pencil, drew a little blop on the bottom right-hand side of each three, and handed the paper back to the interviewer. The interviewer looked at the drawings and said: “But that is not 100!”
“Oh yes, it most certainly is”, said the Joker with a much broader accent,
“D*rty tree and a t*rd + d*rty tree and t*urd + d*rty tree and a t*rd, make a 100 😂
