the real puzzle is wtf happened to the 9th book...

[-] UnpledgedCatnapTipper 39 points 3 months ago

The same reason 6 is afraid of 7.

[-] activ8r@sh.itjust.works 14 points 3 months ago

If 6 was pretending to be 9 that just makes me think that 6 wants to be eaten by 7...

6 is going through exposure therapy.

[-] lobut@lemmy.ca 6 points 3 months ago

Cause 7 is a six-offender?

[-] normalexit@lemmy.world 13 points 3 months ago

I want to know where book 0 is.

[-] funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works 4 points 3 months ago

it's in 0th place.

[-] Treczoks@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

It is not a book on computer science or programming, so this is ok.

[-] njm1314@lemmy.world 57 points 3 months ago

Yeah that's funny and all but I'm more disturbed by your right to left numbering sequence

[-] ChairmanMeow@programming.dev 16 points 3 months ago
[-] Ziglin@lemmy.world 22 points 2 months ago

Then the digits would be too.

[-] ChairmanMeow@programming.dev 15 points 2 months ago

Yes, that was the joke. Clearly people didn't get it.

[-] Funkytom467@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

I use this numbering sequence for manga only, very satisfying to coincide the reading directions with it.

[-] gon@lemm.ee 41 points 3 months ago

This is one of those things that I can only see because I know it's a puzzle so I know to look for inconsistencies.

Then again, would this really happen IRL, to begin with? Wouldn't you notice as you're organizing the books?

Whatever, fun post!

[-] spankmonkey@lemmy.world 19 points 3 months ago

It would not happen in real life, these posts with ridiculously long periods of time to find something are just doing the equivalent of "Only 10% of people can solve this basic puzzle!"

Why are the books in reverse order? To make the puzzle slightly harder. It's clickbait/attention seeking posting.

[-] NeatNit@discuss.tchncs.de 13 points 3 months ago

It's just meant to be amusing man

[-] spankmonkey@lemmy.world 6 points 3 months ago

Meh, I upvoted the post because the first sentence and the image was funny. Adding the extra line exaggerating how long it took is the clickbait part. They aren't mutually ezclusive.

Also, you should tske a pregnancy test because you missed your period.

[-] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 16 points 3 months ago

book 6 ran away because it is afraid of book 7

[-] The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world 13 points 3 months ago

In that case, it may have chosen the exact wrong way to hide.

[-] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 3 months ago

or maybe 6 was into it

[-] Maggoty@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

I notice number 9 is missing

The book was a romance that started from "and they lived haply ever after" went through a period were they became less and into each other, until they had a last kiss, then later met for the last time and ultimately ended up so far apart from each other that it was as if they had never met.

[-] shield_gengar@sh.itjust.works 8 points 2 months ago

The horse was named Friday

[-] Isa@feddit.org 8 points 2 months ago

Yes, it took me about 5 seconds.

[-] OpenStars@discuss.online 7 points 3 months ago

There are other cues - the letters at the top of each of the others, but bottom of the upside-down 6/9.

[-] southsamurai@sh.itjust.works 6 points 3 months ago

Took me a second lol

[-] MedicPigBabySaver@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

Damnit, don't make me stand on my head to figure these out.
