Turn one light switch on, and wait a few minutes. This makes the bulb hot.
Turn it off, then turn on another switch. Run upstairs.
The one that's hot is the first switch; the one that's on is the second, and the others fall into place.
I love that one. And no, I didn't get it the first time either. |
They could have been florescent bulbs.  |
The lamps could have been out of reach, or could have sufficient casing to where you cannot feel the heat.

Picky picky picky.
Or on the way to the second floor you could have fallen into a tear in the time-space continuum and been turned into the lamp itself.

Yeah, and what if you got stuck in the 1950s and the flux capacitor broke down in your Delorean?
I totally just made that scenario up.

I hate things that have no absolute answer, such as the "which of the following is unlike the others" questions. Almost always you can find one way in which each is unlike all of the others. It's rediculous.
