Answers:
🧠 1: The word “incorrectly” (duh!).
🧠 2: 1:45 – The man gave away a quarter to two! (Get it?)
🧠 3: None! The boat rises with the tide! (Facepalm moment, right?)
🧠 4: White. The house is at the North Pole, meaning the bear is a polar bear.
🧠 5: Three. Why? Because ½ of 2 is 1, and 1 + 2 = 3. Basic math, but still tricky!
🧠 6: Sloppy was a goldfish. The wind knocked over the fishbowl, and… well, RIP Sloppy.
🧠 7: None! Because it’s a hole, not a pile of dirt.
🧠 8: The one in 45°F water. The bucket with 30°F water is frozen, so… no water, no splash!
🧠 9: It’s 12:34, 5/6/78. (Neat pattern, huh?)
🧠 10: One. Because when you stack them all together, they become ONE BIG haystack!
🧠 11: The temperature! (Bet you didn’t see that coming!)
💥 So, how many did you get right?
If you aced them all, congratulations—you’re officially a genius! 🎓
If not… well, maybe just bang your head on the wall (gently) and try again. 😆
