Off-topic Talk Where overpaid, underworked S2000 owners waste the worst part of their days before the drive home. This forum is for general chit chat and discussions not covered by the other off-topic forums.

Just a fun brain teaser....

Yeah it's just a play on words. What you really have to do is subtract backward from $15 as some of you did. And got it right.

The play on words is to confuse you about trying to say they each paid 4 times 3 = 12. plus the 2 from the bellboy. When that's really not the original equation.
