They say that intelligence is like underwear. It’s important that you have it, but not necessary that you show it off.

I’m saying that’s rubbish, and I’m giving you the chance to prove it, because if you get these 22 jokes, you will have shown your intelligence is off the charts.

Disclaimer: much head-scratching ahead, followed by many aha moments.

Three logicians walk into a bar. The barman asks: “Three beers?” The first logician says, “I don’t know.” The second logician says, “I don’t know.” The third logician says, “Yes.”

Logicians work on pure logic. As the barman says three beers, it’s impossible for the first two logicians to know that all want beers, so they answer I don’t know, which confirms to the third logician that they do want beer, allowing him to answer the question by saying yes, I want three beers.

What’s the difference between ignorance and apathy?
I don’t know and I don’t care.
