I also didn't get it right away. An Englishman explained it to me. He understood it instantly. Think about why the brothers, who are from Scotland, carried people instead of buying a vehicle.

The problem was in the original wording. It talked of "taking people' and not 'carrying people'. I think you would need to be psychic to have got it with that word wrong.Aufbauwerk 2045 said:

Wow! I'm either psychic!(?) ... or I actually evaluated the whole sentence, which talked about transportation business:sophiecentaur said:The problem was in the original wording.

I think it's fairly clear.Aufbauwerk 2045 said:

"Why does a chicken coop have 2 doors? Because, if it had 4 doors it would be chicken sedan."

The pessimist sees only darkness in a tunnel.
The optimist sees the light at the end of the tunnel.
The realist recognizes the light is an oncoming train.
The train driver sees three idiots on the track.

What if the realist is the optimist!? Then there is only two idiots!fresh_42 said:
Another similar:
The pessimist sees that the train has descended into the tunnel.
The optimist sees that it will come back out rising again.
The smart train driver has secretly abandoned the train inside the downhill tunnel, because it has no brakes!
Question: How many people inside the train wear tie?
Answer: Soon it won't matter!

Why would the driver abandon the train if it's not broken?

Without brakes and downhill (possibly with turns) it would (could) get off track soon ... and he is a whimp! ... + that was a joke! ...Borg said:Why would the driver abandon the train if it's not broken?
