FatalException got it right.

The store is one-sixth of a timezone away and you cross that distance at amazing speeds because your car is secretly the Concorde.

That made no sense whatsoever.

One Hundred and Thirty Nine Birds lay on the Farmer's Fence. With excellent aim and precision, he managed to kill two thirds of them.
How many remain of the Farmer's Fence?



None.

Zero. Zip. Nada. The rest all flew away.

In the English Language, there is a word that consists of Five letters. Adding two more makes the word shorter.

The Horror-Ride

You sit in a car, driving with constant speed. Left of you there's a hill side, on your right is a fire truck driving alongside. Right in front of you there's a pig galoping, larger than your car and a few metres behind you, just above ground level, there's a helicopter chasing you.

What do you do to safely escape this situation?

larger than your car

Okay im not really good with using commas but are you saying the pig is larger than your car or the helicopter? Idk maybe the constand speed is 0. D:

Uhm sorry, the one thing I will never get in ANY language is how to correctly use commas. I'm not even sure if the grammatical order of the sentence is correct. I tried a few versions, but none sounded right, so I just wrote something. ;)
I'd be thankful to be corrected.
The pig is larger than your car, maybe even larger than the helicopter :)

And no, the speed is definitely higher than 0, how high actually doesn't matter.

aka idmontie

Constant velocity can be zero >.> Definition of velocity is speed with direction and his speed can be 0 :P

Jump out of the car onto the hillside.



None.

Dec 9 2008, 3:23 am FatalException Post #338



Or go a little further, then back up, turn around and drive away, because if the hillside and the helicopter are that close, the helicopter's rotor would be smashing itself to pieces on the hill.

what is this "secretly the concorde" thing? Dx I've heard it like, three times at school today.
And aren't time zones divided only by hours ( except for a single half-hour region ) ?
That'd be like, "It took me 6x9 months to produce this baby, because I only had 1/6 of a woman to gestate it."



None.

Dec 9 2008, 3:45 am FatalException Post #340



... You serious too? I just thought of it because I needed a really fast vehicle to put in there...

Timezones are divided only by hours, but if you're talking about the time as a number that completely accurately describes your position relative to the sun, crossing one-sixth of a timezone would cause a change of 10 minutes. Your counterexample doesn't make any sense. :|

Yeah I'm not a big fan of Westernhagen either, Fanta vier much better! But they didn't drop the lyrics that fit the situation. Farty: Ich bin wieder hier; nobody: in meinem Revier; Me: war nie wirklich weg
