Caution: Newest Brain Terminator Appears Here

For this IQ killing Brain Teaser, you need to be somewhat proficient in two fields: counting and spelling. If your level in either of these is below the fourth grade level, you may encounter difficulties with this one. Otherwise, this is a lock, dudes.

Here you go. We call this one “You can count on it.”
If you had to spell out each number as you counted — as in one, two, three, etc. (No, etc. is not a number. If you thought it was, maybe this puzzle is a little over your head.)

Let’s start over, okay?
If you had to spell out each number as you counted, how far would you have to go before you used the letter a in your spelling?

Now if you really have to write every number in order, we promise you this will take a long time. But if you’ve mastered the advanced skill of spelling out loud, you’ll get the answer. However, we think you’ll be surprised anyway by the result.

Easiest Brain Teaser Yet – December 1, 2011

This Brain Teaser (aka “IQ Question”) could easily fit on one of those Stupid Tests you sometimes see on the web. In fact it’s so easy, we’re giving you a time limit for solving it. Why? Because if you really study this bad boy, there is no way in the world you could miss it.

So what’s the time limit? Let’s say 20 seconds if you’re 12 or younger and 15 seconds if you’re 13 or older. If you take longer than that, give yourself a big ol’ F.

Okay, so here it is. You have 20 seconds (or 15).

Ready…… Set…… Stop!

Ha, ha, got you.
(Yeah, we know that was an unbelievably bad joke.)

“C’mon,” you saying, “let’s get this party started.”
Okay, we hear you.
This time it’s for real.

Ready…… Set…… Stop!
Ha, ha. We lied.
Ow-w-w-w-w!! We can hear you moaning from here.

So…
GO!!

Brain Killer for Nov. 28, 2011 — Warning: Very Sneaky Tricky

Here’s Brain Teaser #9 from Freaky Dude Books. (Yeah, we actually were able to count up how many we’ve given you so far.)

Name three days of the week in a row without using Monday, Thursday, or Saturday. And no, you cannot use dates (such as November 28th, 29th, and 30th), though that would be incredibly clever of you to come up with that answer. Well, not if you’d just read it here, but you know what we mean.)

And, oh yeah, you can’t say, “Tuesday, Tuesday, Tuesday.” That’s not three days of the week, bobo. That’s one day of the week three times. Nice try though. You’d make a good tax accountant.
