There's three guys and they're out having a relaxing day
fishing. Out of the blue, they catch a mermaid who begs to
be set free in return for granting each of them a wish.
One of the guys just doesn't believe it, and says, "OK if
you can really grant wishes, then double my I.Q."
The mermaid says, "Done."
Suddenly, the guy starts reciting Shakespeare flawlessly
and analyzing it with extreme insight. The second guy is
so amazed he says to the mermaid, "Triple my I.Q."
The mermaid says, "Done."
The guy starts to spout out all the mathematical solutions
to problems that have been stumping all the scientists of
varying fields: physics, chemistry, etc...
The last guy is so enthralled with the changes in his
friends, that he says to the mermaid, "Quintuple my I.Q."
The mermaid looks at him and says, "You know, I normally
don't try to change people's minds when they make a wish,
but I really wish you'd reconsider."
The guy says, "Nope, I want you to increase my I.Q. times
five, and if you don't do it, I won't set you free."
"Please", says the mermaid, "You don't know what you're
asking...it'll change your entire view on the universe...
won't you ask for something else... a million dollars,
anything?"
But no matter what the mermaid said, the guy insisted on
having his I.Q. increased by five times it's usual power.
So the mermaid sighed and said, "Done."
And he became a woman.
