Disfrustrating Puzzles

XKCD’s Randall Munroe recently shared some of the pages from his grandfather’s collection of Disfrustrating Puzzles and Diversions for People Who Don’t Have Time for the Hard Ones and….I cannot stop laughing at some of these.

an easy puzzle featuring a rope and pulley

an easy upside-down answer puzzle

a how old is billy puzzle

a disconnect the dots puzzle
