Hey creepy clown, solve this problem:
Two perfect logicians, S and P, are told that integers x and y have been chosen such that 1 < x < y and x+y < 100. S is given the value x+y and P is given the value xy. They then have the following conversation.

P: I cannot determine the two numbers.
S: I knew that.
P: Now I can determine them.
S: So can I.

Given that the above statements are true, what are the two numbers?

This is going to be hilarious until someone gets stabbed to death by a clown spouting off random math facts.

What's with all the different shirts?

I think i am actually genuinely frightened. My nightmares will now include a psychotic mathematician clown whose shirt is constantly changing.
