The Puzzle I Was Never Able To Solve

·Nov 10, 2024

I'm about to show you a puzzle I've known about for most of my life, but was never able to solve until last week. When I gave up, I just looked up the answer. I'm not saying this is the hardest puzzle ever created, but it changed the way I look at life.

Okay, it can be found in this book, The Best Optical Illusions. This book came out in 1987 when I was one year old, so I've had this for most of my life. It is full of optical illusions, all the classics we know and love.

But on page 50, it's got this brain teaser that asks which Easter egg fits into which egg cup. Now, the relationship between patterns on eggs and patterns on cups is impenetrable. I would visit this off and on throughout my childhood, trying to solve it.

About 10 years ago, I took a picture of the page so I would have the puzzle with me wherever I went. But last week, I gave up and I looked up the answer. I'm going to read it to you and I hope it makes you as angry as it made me.

Are you ready? Okay, the answer is each egg fits into all the egg cups! It was never a brain teaser; it was a joke all along.
