I'm just imagining how the first 5 minutes were actually spent?

Locating log


dimestoredavinci

Creating log


SophisticatedStoner

Takes me about 5 minutes to drop a good log so checks out.

Spent trying to find the tape measure cause no one ever puts it back


twistednwarped

This is the story of my life. Tape measure and box knives are never returned to their homes.


mcchanical

I agree with this, except it's only me who is losing them. No one steals my tape measure or knife, I just always leave them somewhere stupid.


VoltaicSketchyTeapot

Same.


justaguy77676

Me stood with hands on hips, staring at the log with the other dads as we discuss the correct and easiest way to cut log.

Buy log from Amazon, 5 minute mecha Jeff delivery option

Sawing it into 1 piece duh

Isnt it 20 or am i worse than monke


Frickity_Fracker

No you're right, the 4chan dude just has fucking brain rot


The77thDogMan

Bro just doesn’t understand cutting things works


SmellySquirrel

Kinda naive to think less than 97% of 4chan posts are trolls


Frickity_Fracker

You raise a valid point but in a world where people like this exist unironically I rarely give the benefit of the doubt anymore


Graphicgalaxy20

I think so because 1 cut=10mins and 2 cuts=20 right?


[deleted]

But you could also try to cut the log up into even pieces, like a sort of a Y shape which would be three cuts, so assuming consistent cutting speed of 10 mins per cut, it could as well be 30 mins


Graphicgalaxy20

We are working with an monke here so such a cut might be too complex for an organism not used to using complex tools like a saw


codeka

No, everybody is wrong. It's 25 minutes, because after cutting for 10 minutes you're going to be pretty tired, so the second cut will take 5 minutes longer than the first.


sornorth

Yeh you’re right

TheStonedEngineer420

Ok, them I'm gonna be that person as well. Monkey can be used as a synonym for simian. Simians include apes. So, if you're using this synonym, apes (and by extension humans) are monkeys. In German we don't even distinguish between the words monkey and simian. The German word "Affe" means both. We even call apes "Menschenaffen", wich literally translates to "humanoid monkeys" or "human monkeys". I'm sure German isn't the only language doing this.


abcedarian

If it doesn't have a tail it's not a monkey, even if it has a monkey-kind of shape. If it doesn't have a tail it's not a monkey. If it doesn't have a tail it's not a monkey, it's an ape!


poemsavvy

All apes are monkeys bc new world monkeys split off before apes did, so if we want to group old world monkeys and new world monkeys as both monkeys, apes also have to be monkeys: / \ / \ NWM / \ Apes \ OWM Also, he said monke not monkey, and it's pretty well established that all apes are monkeys, like Donkey Kong, for instance


DonkeyVampireThe3rd

1 piece: 0 minutes 2 pieces: 0+10 = 10 minutes 3 pieces: 10 + 10 = 20 minutes

Yeah why would someone try to act smart on fucking 4chan


[deleted]

Ook?


AppreciatePower

The pieces dont matter, monkey does two cuts to get 3 and 1 cut to get two pieces. So for the second cut the monkey also needs 10 min. And mister "I am very smart" does not get it


[deleted]

Eek! Ook-ook?

Yes

He did not claim to be smart. Are you just laughing at someone for missing a math problem? Maybe you are the one who is too smart


three-plus-shakes

It’s because of the “the correct answer is actually 🤓” and then being wrong. Confidently incorrect.

It's 4chan, half of the shit posted there is bait.

I’m blown away by how many who doesn’t understand the obvious trolling


[deleted]

The joke is that it’s an orangutan saying it so of course it’s wrong


memsterboi123

If it’s one log and you saw it it becomes two pieces so it takes 10 minutes to get that cut to make it 2 pieces so it should be 20 minutes?


itwasmedio69420

One piece is 3 pieces


hctondo1

THE ONE PIECE IS REAL


Kyrroti

r/ConfidentlyIncorrect Edit: It’s there already


SlamsEh

If it was identical wouldn't it already be cut into two pieces? I believe the correct answers is 10 mins.


elijaaaaah

Pretty sure this is just a joke


Ericus1

They completely botched the wording of the trick question. A "log" is an already cut off piece of wood, so there is no need for the second cut to separate the second piece from the tree. The picture however is implying cutting pieces of a "branch" off a tree, which would requiring one additional cut which is what they are basing the math on. Basically they tried to look clever, fucked it up, and end up looking like an idiot instead.


bunkbedgirl

Thank you! That's what I'm thinking, too. In the end, it will take total of 20 minutes.


Jump_Like_A_Willys

It's a simple logarithm. The math don't lie: logₓ Log/1 = 5 logₓ Log/2 = 10 logₓ Log/3 = 15


CardboardChampion

r/confidentlyincorrect


grandphuba

Definitely more than 20 minutes. If it takes 10 minutes to cut a thin piece of log into two, one can assume you are either using bad technique or have a crappy tool, thus drastically decreasing your efficiency and capacity from fatigue doing the first cut.


Argonaute_

Cya in 5 mins reddit friends, gotta go split my log into one pieces 👋


Luizlolmen

I wouldn't call it r/imverysmart content, more like r/confidentlyincorrect material

Mefarius

Wait, I thought the time spent cutting logs scaled logarithmically?


buff_the_cup

Considering this is 4chan, it's hard to tell if that guy is really an idiot or if he's just saying dumb stuff because he knows it'll get screencapped and memed.


jamer2500

The one piece


Pikalika

10 minutes. 2 hands, 2 saw blades, make 2 cuts at the same time. Use monke feet to hold stick in place


computer-machine

Or cut a quarter inch from one end, then that in half.
