    Ways to con people, tricks, and just useless information.

    I wanna gather a thread of as many interesting things you know or personal ways you know how to fvck with people. Just interesting original ideas. Nothing gay, and nothing too extreme.

    1) Ok thing one I've noticed:
    You can drive a group of people mad with this one because its so simple. If you resort to google and post the answers in this thread your killing the whole point of it. Its based on common memory recall, in the real world, you dont always have google at your disposal.

    But simply ask someone, Do you know how many continents there are? Most people will get it correct and say 7 but you'll be suprised how many people are stunned with this first question alone.
    Your ALLOWED to tell them if they dont get it.
    Than you ask them what should be even an easier question...
    ... "How many oceans are there?"

    Most people will guess 5, and technically there is. (Some people have no idea)
    But 95% of people in a social situation can only name 4. Its easy to get atlantic, pacific, and indian, even the artic ocean. But most people dont get past artic. And it will drive people out of thier mind because its such a simple question.

    2) Find a friend, random chick etc and tell him/her you wanna make a money bet with her.
    She'll ask whats the bet?
    You say "I bet you cant take off both your shoes BY YOURSELF in 30 secs"
    This is really dirty shit here. They'll say your an idiot blah blah ANYONE can do that. So you purpose they put down a couple dollars ( ive had idiots put down like 5 bucks on this.. its funny)

    Very important now: Have a watch to guage or a clock. And go 3,2,1 GO!
    The second they take their shoes off, you slip off both of yours at the same time.
    Than go see. "I told you could take off both of your shoes BY YOURSELF"
    If thier confused.. explain to them You took your shoes off WITH THEM, hence no BY YOURSELF. If they argue they can never win, or purpose this third bet.

    3) This is the skit:
    Tell them "All you have to do is answer 5 questions wrong, thats it"
    "We'll start with an example.. how old are you?"
    They are 24 they answer 30.
    You say ok, you got it down.
    Now.. you wanna bet that you can't do it?
    Most people will.

    Ok. Im not gonna write out the first 3 questions. They're irrelevant.
    They can and should be anything simple. LIke where do you live, how old are you, whats your gender? Anything simple you know about them that they will answer wrong.
    On question 4 (and dont ask me how this works but it works most of the time)
    Ask them "ok how many question was that so far?" They will think this is the trick question, BUT its NOT.
    And they WILL get it. They'll answer 2,5,45 etc.
    A lot of people will grab thier money at this point and say "haha i won!!!"
    You say "omg i cant believe i ****ed it up, have you played this game before?" they'll answer the question right and say NO.

    You say "that was the fifth question nimrod" and take your money back.
    Not always absolute, and works better when its done on one person in front of a few other people. Because the social pressure will place some pressure on the other person ego and make them more likely to grab the money after question 4 and say "i won"
    Even if they dont do it.
    Right after question 4 is asked, without a seconds break ask question 5. They ALWAYS **** it up either way because noones played the game.(ime)


    Ok list some good ways to fvck with people or con them. I love this shit.



    4) Ok heres another dumb one. Ask someone how many 9's are there between 1 and 100.
    Most people will think in thier heads 9,19,29,39,49,59,69,79,89,99, and will answer 10.
    They are forgetting however 90, 91,92,93,94,94,96,97, and 98. Just another way to fvck with people.
    The answers 19. Very few people get it.

    this was a good one at a party people go nuts trying to figure it out..

    three guys went to a hotel manager for a room. the manager said a room would be $30. they all paid $10. the bellman took their luggage up to their room, but when he came back down the manager told him that he charged $5 extra for the room and to bring the $5 back. the bellman was mad though because the guys didn't tip him so he took $2 and gave the men $3 back. So each man ended up paying $9 for the room. 3 people x $9 = $27 but $27+$2 = $29

    whered the extra dollar go?

    i got it right away but most people sit down and try to right it out you know because when you think about it like hard your like well it was $10 each which was $30..then he gave each guy $1 back so thats $9 each they spent which is $27 and the bell kept $2 is only $29..lmao i loved watching even smart sober people think about it like wtf..but you have to word it just right and repeat the fact that they all got $1 back which means they spent $9 right? then sober people get confused because the backwards math doesnt work..lol

    when you look at it its 30 - 5 = 25 + 2 = 27 + 3 = 30
