...wrong questions game...

21 questions is where two people alternatingly ask questions until 21 questions are asked.
20 questions is where one person thinks of something stupid, then another asks 20 questions to guess.

I have sort of been taking her lead on this, from clean interesting backround questions to the other variety. Sooo, should I ask her for a date after this? I understand its a learn about the other person type of icebreaking game, just wondering if I ask right after over gtalk, or call her after work..

There are two identical jars filled with clear tasteless liquid. One has poison and the other is the antidote. You are forced to drink some poison, and now must pick the jar with the antidote to live, except on the label of each jar, one label is truthful, and the other is false. Jar A has label, POISON. Jar B has label NOT POISON. Which Jar do you pick?

If one label is truthful and one isn't, there are two possible situations.

Probability 1)

Jar A is really poison, jar B isn't.

Probability 2)

Jar A isn't poison, jar B isn't either.

Since probability 2 is impossible, you choose jar B.

EDIT: spelling.

how is 2 impossible? Neither are poison, jar b is telling the truth, jar a is lying

Duh....

just keep it casual and fun. if you can't do that, don't bother. don't "ask her out" per se, ask her if she wants to hang out sometime, or go out and do something fun...
