kills one of them and ask the other, is he dead?

u/Ed_Radley 2d ago

Congratulations. You solved the riddle. The only problem is now anyone who needs to know the correct answer from that point on no longer can answer the riddle and must go back where they came.

u/Inigomntoya 2d ago

You could just ask, "Is that guy gone?"

Or you don't even have to remove the body.

I love the energy, but I am struck that anyone would know the single hole is salt, and the triple hole is pepper. like in any relationship.

22

u/Icy-Book2999 Fave frog is a swing nose frog 2d ago

Well, triple hole salt, double hole pepper. You don't see the top of the pepper as much in the video, but you get one glimpse.

However, as a counterpoint? I try to watch my sodium intake. So I use more pepper than salt and I reverse the shakers in my household so that the pepper is the triple hole shaker.

u/Majestic-Parsnip-519 2d ago

I just started using these for my salt so I've got options on holes. My food tastes better now, and my blood pressure is back up to where it used to be when I was in my younger days!

u/RoncoSnackWeasel 2d ago

This is from the same book that says cats are girls and dogs are boys.

u/_Choose_Goose 2d ago

I know it can get a little controversial but you gotta check the number of holes….

Neither of them have a single hole.

u/Holeshot75 2d ago

It's like the paradox:

"This statement is false."

Okay

So it's not true.

But then that means it's false that it's false which means it's true.

But it's not.

Salt always has more holes in the top than the pepper.

u/UpperMiddleSass 2d ago

I thought it was the opposite e: in the US

u/Fun_Elk_4949 1d ago

Not in my parents house growing up. But my mom's grandmother was from Birmingham so maybe that's why.

u/praeteria 2d ago

I mean, I understand people doing stuff different for personal reasons but the universal standard is still 3 holes salt. 2 holes pepper

2

u/jjm443 2d ago

"Universal"... maybe in the US?

Where I am in Europe, the salt will always have the same or fewer holes than pepper, most often 1 hole for salt, multiple for pepper. In trying to find out how universal it is, I found this interesting map

(Yes I realise this is probably irrelevant for the likely American in the video, although you never know)

u/FreshPitch6026 2d ago

So the question is now, are YOU salt or pepper?

Put ketchup in both and put them in the bathroom next to the soap.

Wait, now I'm more confused.

u/Peterthinking 2d ago

Salt shakers have more holes than pepper shakers. "You're the salt" has 3. "To my pepper" has 2. Put salt in the one with more holes. Unless you do the opposite of course. It really depends on what you are used to.

1

u/Able-Tangelo8480 2d ago

Isn’t go by the holes on top. 3 holes is for pepper and 2 holes is for salt, as I generally use less salt than pepper

u/pion137 2d ago

Pepper Shaker hole count > Salt Shaker hole count

3 holes = Pepper 2 holes = Salt

u/GroundbreakingPea865 2d ago

One hole salt three holes pepper. I see where you're coming from tho. 🤔😁

The holes on the top tell you what goes in, salt has less holes then a pepper shaker.

u/Spartan_187 2d ago

this is a result of a generation that has entirely too much time on their hands and expendable income. Try growing up poor and you learn to not give a shit about such things.

u/Empty_Suggestion9974 2d ago

Best not to overthink it bud

1

u/xxTheMagicBulleT 2d ago

Funny. But the one that has more holes in it is always the salt.

Cause people use more salt then peper on there meals.

Geas people are salty cause they love salt more

1

u/MCPhatmam 2d ago

The shakers aren't talking to each other your girlfriend is telling you 😅

u/7_11_Nation_Army 2d ago

They are not talking to each other, it is his gf talking to him.

u/AmbassadorNo4147 1d ago

I get the conundrum. But, to slice through the confusion, the one intended for salt has the fewer holes.

1

u/Internetirregular 1d ago

there wouldn't be a problem if the makers where a tiny bit smarter and out "to YOUR pepper"

u/emzirek 2d ago

What you do is put salt in both of them and get a pepper grinder...

1

u/JVOz671 2d ago

So if anyone is looking for an answer, if you are the same as this gentleman and get the vibe that the shakers are speaking don't think in terms that they are speaking to each other, rather just think that one of them is talking to the other and it all makes sense. Does not excuse the shitty way they made these shakers.

Do not try and bend the spoon; that's impossible. Instead, only try to realize the truth… there is no spoon. Then you'll see that it is not the spoon that bends; it is only yourself.
