Too Damn Busy

Apples for Apples

A man was asked what price per 100 he paid for some apples.

His reply was as follows: “If they had been 4 cents more per 100 I should have got five less for $1.20.”

Can you say what the price was per 100?

    The original price was 96¢ per 100 apples. The guy bought 125 apples, paying $1.20.
    If the price goes up 4¢ to $1.00 per 100 apples, the guy gets 120 apples – five fewer – for that same $1.20.
    Now, just try to find some asshole apple vendor who will sell you a hundred apples for a buck. Gotta be some real shit apples. Road apples, maybe…they’re real shit.

    A man in an Up elevator is traveling at half the speed of light (93,000 mps). Another man in a Down elevator is traveling at the speed of light (186,000 mps).
    Question: Why is the second man screaming while repeatedly pressing the STOP button?

    I can only figure that out if there’s also two trains going in opposite directions at different speeds.
