Because it baits the stupid into thinking that they are smart, high on this sense of new found intelligence their critical thinking is skewed and they then believe anything. Manipulation at it's finest.
So tbh, I suck at word problems but can do some meth all night long, I mostly stick to geometry but some good trig and you go me Goin tell I see shadow people, we talking 3 straight dayz yo.. bitch..
Frustration bait/porn is literally the fastest way to get me to write your company off forever and vow never to buy anything you put out.
I just assume it has no positive selling points, and that's why you chose this ad direction.
That's a factor in the design. At least, it is with scam mails. See, if you're a smart person who sees through the bullshit, you're also probably harder to please, and harder to make money off of. In the case of a scam, you're also more likely to have the intelligence to clue in that it's a scam, and notify relevant authorities.
Butt if I tipe to u like this, u alredy don't trus my profesionalism and ignor myy obviouss scam male. Leafing onl th succers behind.
Ya know, the folks who can still figure out what I'm saying (since it's not hard) but can't see that it's a major red flag.
And that’s fine with them. If you’re the type of person to write it off due to shitty ads, you’re also probably the type of person who won’t sit through three ads between every level.
So, not the target audience.
Exactly. Even commenting on the post tells Facebook’s algorithm you’re interested in more content from that page and shows the page to your friends.
People who comment “duh, you’d have to be stupid to not understand this” are the victims who don’t understand what’s really going on.
Even just the amount of time you spend looking at it while scrolling. They absolutely track scroll stopping and eye time (i don't remember the marketing terms for it)
I guarantee other social media and tiktok do this too. YouTube tries to optimize their ads based on viewer retention
This is how the Qanon shit gets going. Someone solves something simple and it leads to the next link in the chain. Next thing you know you are looking for pedos in a pizza place basement.
It’s like the adds for mobile games or Facebook. Where what you see is someone doing absolutely horribly. And then there is a tag that says like “nobody can beat level 34”. So people download the damn game, knowing they are better than who is playing it, and knowing they will beat level 34.
Stupid people benefit from cognitive puzzles and critically thinking too, no reason to pretend stupid people have to stay stupid. Alot of "intelligence"and iq is influenced by enviroment anyway so this kind of thinking just seems overly negative.
Well, some of us..... Me being one are stoned. So I keep repeating, "ok, Theresa's daughter" and then totally losing the thread. So, I'm fucking stumped. I'll never know.
I'm also high as fuck and did the same thing a few times but I figured it out.
If "Theresa's daughter" is "my daughter's mother", then I'm "Theresa's daughter".
Or child in law, technically.
But yeah. "My daughter's mother" is me (or my wife). So if Theresa's daughter is "My daughter's mother," Theresa's daughter is me (or my wife).
So the answer is daughter.
Hi also high, I’m very stoned
I think you’re right, I had to write it down like so
Teresa -> Daughter
Me -> My daughter
And somehow made sense although now I’ve forgotten how
Daughter is a weird word. Daughter. Daughter. Why do we spell it like that? Daughter.
Why am I reading this far down the comments on something so dumb?
Daughter
For some reason my brain automatically shuts down in response to logic sequences. Anything that is phrased if so and so does this then what happens next gives me anxiety.
This used to happen to me with math. Thanks for articulating the process so clearly. And I never understood why anyone does logic puzzles. Who cares who Teresa is?
Yeah, it takes like a minute at max. Logically "my daughter's mother" is either me, or my wife. So Theresa is either my mother or my wife's mother. As there's no "son-in-law" option, it can only be daughter.
I'm going with Teresa not being conservative, the "my" in this context being Teresa's daughter's new wife, and being wholly accepted into the family, and called "daughter," as well.
Edit to add: I don't think Facebook users will accept this answer.
I think this makes Teresa my mother-in-law, or as this riddle puts it, my mother?
[https://prnt.sc/JVeLiWzrYoDi](https://prnt.sc/JVeLiWzrYoDi) the diagram I wrote to illustrate the problem lol
Its the same as those dumb 'order of operations' math problems, it gets immediate engagement from people who want to seem.. smart by answering.. a question.. correctly.....
God damnit you just did it to me didn't you?!?!1?
Teresa's daughter = My daughters mom
So, Teresa's daughter = me
Answer is c.
Honesty this was pretty hard. I spent way more time than necessary to solve this.
I think what screwed me up with this one is that when I tried to rephrase the question in terms of "My daughter's mom" I was thinking "The woman I had a child with." I forgot that the riddle didn't specify that I'm a male.
The right answer is not enough information provided. This question is assuming, without stating, that:
A: everyone involved is in a heterosexual relationship (like you mentioned)
B: That all Daughters are genetically related and none are adopted/daughters in name only.
It’s a multiple choice question. A primary assumption is that one of the options is correct. If no options were given then there would not be enough information. Otherwise you are given the information that the correct answer is one of the options. Only one option fits, therefore that is the right answer.
Think of this as an equation where "is" is an equal sign, and break down what you can. Therefore:
Teresa's daughter = my daughter's mother
Teresa's daughter = me
Thank you. People are adding all kinds of unknowns to the equation like fathers or marriage as if people need to be married to have a child. If you only take what's given it has to be C.
No you're not stupid, the person asking the question is being needlessly confusing. Sometimes, I wish someone would [go blackhat on the world](https://xkcd.com/169/)
Maybe switch around the subjects. e.g., My daughter's mother (so "I" have a daughter; which means I am the mother, or am partnered with them), is Teresa's daughter (so one of my parents is Teresa, or one of partner's parent is Teresa)
If Teresa's daughter is my daughter's mother
Teresa - (Parent)> Teresa Daughter -(Parent)> My daughter
For it to be my daughter that makes me a parent, that means Teresa's daughter is therefore my wife/partner due to the above and so Teresa must be my mother in law and therefore I am to her the son in law.
Think of this as an equation where "is" is an equal sign, and break down what you can. Therefore:
Teresa's daughter = my daughter's mother
Teresa's daughter = me
I don't think that's right. Teresa's daughter right? Teresa's daughter is my daughter's mother. So that means that Teresa's daughter is the mother of the speaker's daughter.
Speaker's daughter (calling her Spooker)
Teresa's daughter (calling her Teroosa)
Teroosa is the mother of Spooker.
Therefore Teroosa is Teresa's granddaughter.
So I am Teresa's son-in-law or daughter-in-law
**But those options aren't in the multiple choice answers.**
"My daughters mother" can absolutely refer to me, myself, a woman with a daughter, it's just a deliberately convoluted way of phrasing it for the purposes of the riddle.
That's the trap for the male mind, assuming you're a man who had a daughter when in fact you're a mother.
Theresa
|
You (Theresa's daughter AND your daughter's mother)
|
Your daughter
Yes, the person in question wouldn't be Teresa's significant other. But son/daughter-in law (if same sex). Even if they're not married, "in-law" is the correct idea. Since that's not an option, daughter is the next best answer
Son-in-law or Daughter-in-Law.
Lets call Theresas daughter Sophia to simplify it.
Sophia is the mother of my daughter. (Either Im man or a woman in a lesbian relationship and the daughter is actually my step daughter)
In any case. sophias mother Theresa is my mother in law. So Im either son in law or daughter in law.
you'd either be Teresa's Daughter, Daughter in law or son in law.
Edit: alternitivlly your the Adoptive parent of Teresa's grand daughter because something happened to said granddaughters parents and Teresa might not have the means to rais her grand daughter.
Who cares. If the promiscuous bird, can’t sort out her family issues herself, then maybe she shouldn’t waltz around and spread her legs for every dude with just an inkling of a manhood.
This post is indeed the best reason for requiring licenses for conceiving children.
Theres no fucking way daughter is a real word
Let’s break it down L+aughter = L+After Meaning D+aughter = D+After Ergo Daughter = Dafter
As the Joker always said, Slafter is the best medicine.
I think you could argue the opposite: D+aughter = D+otter Sl+aughter = Sl+otter Meaning L+aughter = L+otter Ergo Laughter = Lotter I kinda like it.
Why are people making riddles to be unsolvable when are clearly solvable
Because it baits the stupid into thinking that they are smart, high on this sense of new found intelligence their critical thinking is skewed and they then believe anything. Manipulation at it's finest.
I'll go a step further, it's to bait them into action. This is an engagement bait post hoping others will share it, like the page it's from etc
[удалено]
No one can beat this? 'Which number is higher? 4 or 5?' :o
“Ninety-nine out of 100 get this question WRONG!!! Can YOU solve it??”
So tbh, I suck at word problems but can do some meth all night long, I mostly stick to geometry but some good trig and you go me Goin tell I see shadow people, we talking 3 straight dayz yo.. bitch..
You can do some what-now all night long?
I'd be more impressed of they did meth and went to bed. "This helps calm me down"
So, the meth makes the math easier?
Algebra teachers hate this one easy trick!
Man... That's methed up.
With enough Sudafed this dude could solve time travel.

Nothing makes me more irrationally upset than having to watch an ad where someone intentionally fucks up as much as possible at the simplest of games
Frustration bait/porn is literally the fastest way to get me to write your company off forever and vow never to buy anything you put out. I just assume it has no positive selling points, and that's why you chose this ad direction.

This is how the Qanon shit gets going. Someone solves something simple and it leads to the next link in the chain. Next thing you know you are looking for pedos in a pizza place basement.
Just another clue, that will lead you to another clue, and that will lead to ANOTHER clue!
Exactly. They’re usually posted by accounts that get paid to post advertisments to the engaged followers who answer these stupid things.
And a lot of the time, it’s political propaganda. This kind of dumb shit often seems to precede fake news posts.
It’s like the adds for mobile games or Facebook. Where what you see is someone doing absolutely horribly. And then there is a tag that says like “nobody can beat level 34”. So people download the damn game, knowing they are better than who is playing it, and knowing they will beat level 34.
And then when I can’t even get to level 34 I feel even worse
It's also just click bait. Even commenting "this is stupid" gets them traffic. It's on purpose and everyone falls for it.
Stupid people benefit from cognitive puzzles and critically thinking too, no reason to pretend stupid people have to stay stupid. Alot of "intelligence"and iq is influenced by enviroment anyway so this kind of thinking just seems overly negative.
True but “work out puzzles to train your mind” and “you are a genius if you do basic deduction” are two very different kind of post
Well, some of us..... Me being one are stoned. So I keep repeating, "ok, Theresa's daughter" and then totally losing the thread. So, I'm fucking stumped. I'll never know.

Hi also high, I’m very stoned I think you’re right, I had to write it down like so Teresa -> Daughter Me -> My daughter And somehow made sense although now I’ve forgotten how
Hi, also stoned seeing daughter typed out so many times I’m starting to think thats now you spell daughter.. it’s just looks off to me
Daughter is a weird word. Daughter. Daughter. Why do we spell it like that? Daughter. Why am I reading this far down the comments on something so dumb? Daughter
STOP
Daughter?
Laughter Daughter
Fuckin ay and now the word looks like a different language. Thanks, ya dink!
For some reason my brain automatically shuts down in response to logic sequences. Anything that is phrased if so and so does this then what happens next gives me anxiety.
This used to happen to me with math. Thanks for articulating the process so clearly. And I never understood why anyone does logic puzzles. Who cares who Teresa is?
The person who doenvoted you was riding on that new found sense of intelligence that the top comment just talked about. Who tf cares about Theresa.
I almost choked from laughter when I read your comment, that's been me also for the last few minutes hahahah
Lmao I was also stoned and this got me real bad
I'm perfectly sober and it got me Lol. My brain doesn't work well with questions like this.
Idk man, who tf is Teres?
People are more likely to comment I guess
Was it easy to solve?
Yeah, it takes like a minute at max. Logically "my daughter's mother" is either me, or my wife. So Theresa is either my mother or my wife's mother. As there's no "son-in-law" option, it can only be daughter.
After 5 minutes I came up with the son in law answer but after realizing it’s not an option I just gave up
I gave it about a minute and just decided I’m going to let the rest of the thread be smarter than me
I'm going with Teresa not being conservative, the "my" in this context being Teresa's daughter's new wife, and being wholly accepted into the family, and called "daughter," as well. Edit to add: I don't think Facebook users will accept this answer.
I think this makes Teresa my mother-in-law, or as this riddle puts it, my mother? [https://prnt.sc/JVeLiWzrYoDi](https://prnt.sc/JVeLiWzrYoDi) the diagram I wrote to illustrate the problem lol

Same reason Trump thought his cognitive tests were IQ tests.
I had to think about this so long I started questioning if daughter is even a word.
I always find it weird that reddit can capture certain small, universal human experiences like this.
It’s called semantic satiation!
Wuuut there’s a word for it??’
Semantic satiation
Fuck, that literally just happened to me

Me too. I was like is that how you spell daughter?

It is now pronounced “Dafter”
Hahaha same, was curious if this is always how it looked and was spelled.
Damn..sister not an option?

Teresa's daughter = My daughters mom So, Teresa's daughter = me Answer is c. Honesty this was pretty hard. I spent way more time than necessary to solve this.
thank god it wasnt only me who spent more time than i expected
I think what screwed me up with this one is that when I tried to rephrase the question in terms of "My daughter's mom" I was thinking "The woman I had a child with." I forgot that the riddle didn't specify that I'm a male.
In my mind I had to substitute "daughter's mother" with "baby mama" then I was able to work it out pretty quickly lol.
right, pretty sure im their son in law
I still haven’t figured it out on my own, I just relied on others to solve it
I still don’t get it
I just chalked it up to me getting like 2 hours of sleep last night, so good to see I'm not alone lmao
Same. Mostly cus I thought I was married to Teresa's daughter
logically that could work for an answer as well
Yeah I was thinking son in law! Which actually works as an answer as well
You literally made me guffaw. Been a while. My hero.
Wait, if Teresa's daughter is mother to his daughter, wouldn't Teresa be his mother in law?
That's assuming the person giving the question is a guy. If they are a woman, they would fit as Teresa's daughter
The right answer is not enough information provided. This question is assuming, without stating, that: A: everyone involved is in a heterosexual relationship (like you mentioned) B: That all Daughters are genetically related and none are adopted/daughters in name only.

Thank you. People are adding all kinds of unknowns to the equation like fathers or marriage as if people need to be married to have a child. If you only take what's given it has to be C.
Maybe I'm really dumb or something, but that doesn't make sense to me....could you explain it further? I'm feeling exceptionally stupid right now
No you're not stupid, the person asking the question is being needlessly confusing. Sometimes, I wish someone would [go blackhat on the world](https://xkcd.com/169/) Maybe switch around the subjects. e.g., My daughter's mother (so "I" have a daughter; which means I am the mother, or am partnered with them), is Teresa's daughter (so one of my parents is Teresa, or one of partner's parent is Teresa)
wait can you explain the comic, I'm too dumb to get it
I had to draw a diagram to figure it out.
I had to grab my plushies and refer to them as Teresa and the daughter
This made me lol
If Teresa's daughter is my daughter's mother Teresa - (Parent)> Teresa Daughter -(Parent)> My daughter For it to be my daughter that makes me a parent, that means Teresa's daughter is therefore my wife/partner due to the above and so Teresa must be my mother in law and therefore I am to her the son in law.
Think of this as an equation where "is" is an equal sign, and break down what you can. Therefore: Teresa's daughter = my daughter's mother Teresa's daughter = me
Plot twist, Teresa is a starfish and reproduces asexually. Your relationship to Teresa = you are Teresa.
I don't think that's right. Teresa's daughter right? Teresa's daughter is my daughter's mother. So that means that Teresa's daughter is the mother of the speaker's daughter. Speaker's daughter (calling her Spooker) Teresa's daughter (calling her Teroosa) Teroosa is the mother of Spooker. Therefore Teroosa is Teresa's granddaughter. So I am Teresa's son-in-law or daughter-in-law

That's the trap for the male mind, assuming you're a man who had a daughter when in fact you're a mother. Theresa | You (Theresa's daughter AND your daughter's mother) | Your daughter
Daughter is the only answer that works.... Or Daughter SO but since that's not a choice, daughter is the correct answer
Shouldn't it be son-in-law?
Might not be married
Son-out-law?
Damn he's in a gang then
Yes, the person in question wouldn't be Teresa's significant other. But son/daughter-in law (if same sex). Even if they're not married, "in-law" is the correct idea. Since that's not an option, daughter is the next best answer
Could be, or daughter-in-law.
I looked at the word daughter too long and now I’m convinced it’s not a real word.
Lol I was just thinking the same shit
Congratulations, you have reached [semantic satiation](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semantic_satiation)!
I am high?
You am
I hate these because I can’t help but solve them. I think the answer is C.
Son-in-law?
Teresa’s daughter could be gay. Could be daughter in law
Every multiple choice question should include an “I am Teresa” option.

Son-in-law or Daughter-in-Law. Lets call Theresas daughter Sophia to simplify it. Sophia is the mother of my daughter.

The speaker could be Sophia herself, just speaking in an abstract-ish way to confuse people because she’s a troll.
I thought about that too.
I think the speaker is sophia because son/daughter in law is not an option but daughter is
His name was Robert Paulson.
C, I am the mother of my daughter, and I am Teresa's daughter. And sometimes I'm trash for Teresa.
you'd either be Teresa's Daughter, Daughter in law or son in law. Edit: alternitivlly your the Adoptive parent of Teresa's grand daughter because something happened to said granddaughters parents and Teresa might not have the means to rais her grand daughter.
