The only thing more annoying than one half is two halves. I suspect this one will be relatively quick, so if someone guesses it early don't bother to email. | ||

By Lynne (Lynne) on Thursday, January 05, 2006 - 08:05 pm: Slugs in your salad? now that's an answer I highly like! Of course, you won't be surprised to hear that it's not the one I was thinking of. | ||

By Harley Quinn (Harley) on Thursday, January 05, 2006 - 10:27 pm: Pulling two different socks out of the dryer and wondering where their mates got off to? all good guesses but I can't say you all are thinking of what I was. | ||

two halves of the workday? the first half is bad enough, but then you have to come back after lunch and do it again? | ||

By Lewis Zeiters (Lzeiters) on Friday, January 06, 2006 - 06:24 am: sharing a cubicle relevant? no though work is By Lewis Zeiters (Lzeiters) on Friday, January 06, 2006 - 06:24 am: two halves of the workday? the first half is bad enough, but then you have to come back after lunch and do it again? well, work's relevant but not the workday | ||

one half of something and two halves of that same thing? that thing relevant? | ||
| Rachel (Myth)
|
By Kristoffer Dominique Albeus (Kristoffer) on Tuesday, January 10, 2006 - 02:18 pm: one half of something and two halves of that same thing? that thing relevant? approximately--the same half but twice! And yes very relevent what it was | ||

meetings relevant? a particular task? | ||
| Rachel (Myth)
|
By Lewis Zeiters (Lzeiters) on Tuesday, January 10, 2006 - 03:46 pm: meetings relevant? a particular task? no to both I fear. Still, keep guessing-this puzzle probably will be quite quick if it can hold anyone's attention. | ||

Two halves of the same thing? Two halves are the same? I.e. You have half a map and another half that's the exact same half? Is the "thing" that we have either one half or two halves of... a thing? a person? animal? vegetable? mineral? paper? wood? Two halves of a... dead baby? kitten? chicken liver dinner? | ||

By Lisa (Dlcygnet) on Tuesday, January 10, 2006 - 06:14 pm: Two halves of the same thing? Two halves are the same? YES, this I.e. You have half a map and another half that's the exact same half? exactly, but not a map Is the "thing" that we have either one half or two halves of... a thing? this one a person? animal? vegetable? mineral? paper? wood? none of the rest Two halves of a... dead baby? kitten? chicken liver dinner? You make me feel better-at least none of the halves I had were quite this foul! | ||

how about three of those halves, is it more annoying? what if there's none, is it less annoying? | ||

By Kristoffer Dominique Albeus (Kristoffer) on Wednesday, January 11, 2006 - 02:30 pm: how about three of those halves, is it more annoying? yes! what if there's none, is it less annoying? yes, but this isn't as clear cut By Kapil Kapur (Dinkie) on Wednesday, January 11, 2006 - 03:04 pm: two part time jobs ? not this Hint: I think you all are being a bit mislead by the title. It's mildly relevant what I do and you can figure that out or check where I mentioned it in a previous puzzle, but most of this would annoy any of you and could probably happen at your work. | ||

e-mails ? fax ? | ||
| Rachel (Myth)
|
By Kapil Kapur (Dinkie) on Friday, January 13, 2006 - 09:11 am: e-mails ? YES!! fax ? So, just to recap, I got half of an email related thing, in fact, I got it twice and that was much worse than getting it once. We're so close to success on this one. | ||

An enormous bandwidth-wasting attachment? | ||

|
By John Morahan (Wunderland) on Sunday, January 15, 2006 - 10:38 pm: An enormous bandwidth-wasting attachment? YES And that will suffice for me to declare a spoiler. It will be appearing shortly. In the meantime I recommend my other puzzle. It's definitely harder and I rather think it's a good deal more entertaining too. | ||

*****SPOILER***** At work I recieve a lot of assignments in from people but I really don't like it when they send in a partial assignment. Not only is their piece not useful yet but the attachement is still huge enough to tax my poor computer. Things became even dumber when a couple of weeks ago my boss was CCd on a partial assignment and then she forwarded the email with attachment right back to me! The only thing more foolish than the first half was the second. |
