The question for the Einstein test is ... WHO KEEPS THE FISH?
easy
That's the real solution to this test...
"...keep a certain pet"
You've got fooled by the question. It's like asking "I have a black cat that likes to eat fish. It weighs 5kg. How long is its tail?" You simply can't solve it with the information given, but with this one you're actually fooled into thinking you can just fill in the blanks with fish. :)
Yellow -> Water, Dunhill, cats, Norwegian
Blue -> Tea, Blend, Birds, Dane
Red -> Coffee, Pall Mall, birds, Brit
Green -> Coffee, Prince, fish, German
White -> Beer, Blue Master, Dogs, Swede
I still stick to my solution... especially because of Einstein's quote:
"The important thing is to not stop questioning."
nowhere in any of that writing does it say anyone has to have a fish its a pretty simple riddle lol. the answer is simply that it has to be the only remaining person with a blank to be filled in which is the german because all other blanks have been filled in. that missing blank doenst have to be the fish it could be anything.
the reason eintein did this is to keep the world questioning everything. there isnt an answer. i googled to find this bit out.
so do i get a cookie for answering the riddle in a matter of seconds?
such a simple riddle.
(when i was about 14, cuz i did it the first time then)
i'm not going to pretend i know the history of einstein's theories, but if einstein's credited for it, which he is, your comment can lick my balls
The Japanese, because they're about to have sashimi for dinner.
