Brainteasers Gone Wild: My Offbeat Answers to ChatGPT’s Questions

Sometimes when I’m bored, I become somewhat creative just for the sake of doing something. It’s like my mind has a hidden surprise room full of ideas waiting to be suddenly unleashed. For instance, I never knew I was capable of running an English-written blog if it weren’t for the broken heart and boredom I experienced on a random afternoon years ago. And honestly, I’m still surprised. 

What’s not so surprising, however, is this: recently, I discovered something fun to do when I have nothing to do. I used ChatGPT to give me some fun brainteasers. Instead of answering thoughtfully, I just randomly threw out the first thing that came to my mind. Some of them were… weird.
