"… and if they have eggs, get a dozen, " she added.
He later came home with 12 gallons of milk.
“Why’d you get so much milk!?!” his wife asked.
He replies, “THEY HAD EGGS!”
Alternate version:
“While you’re there, pick up some bread,” she added. He never returned.
and when he returned empty-handed he answered “I then set the bread back down”
Obviously someone else then took the bread, the only way to break the cycle.
“Buy two forks. Buy two forks for every fork you buy.”
:(){ :|:& };:Aahh, the ol’ botox lips, raised monobrow, grumpy face and the two toothed irony wiking emoticons.
This is old ,the forkbomb !
Should have gotten 13 gallons.
I like the discussion in this thread.
No - he was asked to bring 1 or 12, not 1 and 12
try reading it again. Wife clearly says “and” not “or”
The comma operator would like to have a word with you. I see a pause after eggs, 12 gallons it is

Doesn’t change it.
Wife adds 1 gallon of milk to shopping list;
Wife adds ( eggs, dozen) gallons of milk to shopping list;
Shopping list has 1 gallon and a dozen gallons for a total of 13 gallons.
The shopping list doesn’t need to be additive, that’s just one way of interpreting what the wife wrote. There is no one correct way to read a joke as a program (my whole point), that is unless you write an interpreter for jokes :P
function getGallonOfMilk() { return 1; } function getDozen() { return 12; } const hasEggs = store.checkInventory(“eggs”); const result = ( getGallonOfMilk(), hasEggs && getDozen() ); console.log(result * "🥛"); // 🥛🥛🥛🥛🥛🥛🥛🥛🥛🥛🥛🥛
Found the BSAs
What? They apparently had eggs. If, then, else.
Requirements unclear.
I still don’t understand why he managed to get 12 gallons and not 11 or even 10.
So get a gallon of milk, and IF they have eggs, get a dozen (gallons of milk). Basically this is an if statement meaning if X is true, do this. Well normally we think get a dozen would be get 12 eggs, but because “have eggs = true” that meant get 12 gallons of milk. The opposite would’ve been eggs=false and he’d come home with 1 gallon.
I’m not a Dev so I can’t write the code better, but I understand the language enough
eggs?(milk=12):(milk=1);
return milk;
Ahh, my bad. I forgot that in English dozen means 12 but dosens means 10*n with n > 1.
people say tens for multiples of 10
NP. We don’t even use dosens in America so I learned something new!
