riddle me this linustechtip folks..

[AniJan]

you're locked inside a 24 hour store with maximum security at 9:00a.m on a wednesday(no particular special event). y the store has nothing except candy.

how do you get out of the store?

[PurpleVirtue]

You find the nearest metal shelf and break the door/window, then use it to leverage against that window/doors barricade until it bends, then leverage the other side. Rinse and repeat until the barricade breaks.

maximum security. this means there are alarms, security cameras, etc.

[theninja35]

Call the police or the store owner/employee with key. There's nothing else you could really do except push the door handle and hope it's unlocked from the inside.

 

...how would you get yourself stuck in there anyway?

Well if it's a 24 hour store shouldn't someone be working there? You just ask them to open the door.

 

Wait a minute, if it's a 24 hour store, why would you lock it in the first place?

Literally this.  You locked it, you can unlock it.  Bam, next question.  

[AniJan]

the answer to the shitty riddle i made with tons of flaws and grammatical mistakes...

its a paradox. the store opens 24/7 and there's no special event. + it's 9a.m. there is no excuse for this...

[Tsuki]

24 hour stores dont lock, walk out the front door.

[AniJan]

iz a paradox..

does that make sense?

its not a paradox.

that would imply that it makes total sense, despite the answer being logically unsound.

 

its just a shit question that doesnt mean what you think it means.

wait. a paradox is when something that seems reasonable doesn't have a logical solution, meaning it's self contradictory. if my riddle doesnt sound logical and i'm sayi-

 

it was a bad riddle. sorry.

Pretty simple. Fire code in most western countries dictates that there MUST be at least one door that opens from the inside, no matter what. One that cannot lock someone inside.

 

Sure an Alarm might go off, but if you're stuck inside the building, who gives a shit?

 

Plus, you said yourself that the store was open 24-hours in the "scenario". Therefore even if an alarm did go off, you could probably sue them for locking you inside an open store.

Also, even if the store was locked for some reasons (24hr store DO close for extraneous reasons.) and it is 'maximum security' then once the security alarms go off and security or police respond to find you inside with a jug of milk and sad face moaning "I JUST WANTED MILK WITH MY COOKIES AND I GOT LOCKED IN, LEMME OUT! D:"

 

This isn't a paradox.  The first mistake is assuming that such a store wouldn't have locks or alarms anyway.  Let's say the water main is shut down for repairs and the store is unable to operate. Do you think it just DOESN'T have locks because it's 'Not supposed to close'?  It most certainly has locks for situations like those.  Closed for renovations?  Death in the owner's family and not enough staff to maintain operation for 24hrs?  What if the business closes down and now it's sale?  Guess what, it's got locks for that,

[Gravesnear]

Why would I leave the store? It has the candy.

[AniJan]

my riddle was just really bad. so my answer isn't plausible.

its not a paradox, sorry. i made a horrible riddle.

[PlayStation 2]

If you got into the store with a key, I'd bet you could get out of it with that same key.

[NumLock21]

One of my friend's door actually locks from both sides. To get in and out, he has to use a key. And I'm thinking the greatest fire hazard ever! Cause if there is one, he can't run out like a normal person. He has to get out with a key.

I wonder if that door lock is even legal in his district.

[Groundedbeef]

screw getting out, Eat candy, lots of candy

[Keg Ops]

Start eating all of the candy until I get kicked out by one of the guards.
