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.

It happens to the best of 'em. cw had something similar and disgusting happen when she tried to post something funny. Some people are crazy about you linking to their images.
