Thought I'd start off with a puzzle question. Whoever get's it right can do the next one.

The correct answer is the one the poster has in mind when posting, so if you find a different one on Google, stiff bikkies.

My question, during WWII 2 Australian soldiers were driving down a New Guinea track, in opposite directions toward each other. The met at an intersection where both wanted to turn down the same track toward base. One turning left, the other turning right.

The both stopped at the intersection and gave way to each other, sitting there waiting for the other to go first.

Why?
One was from Victoria, where left turn gave way to right turn up until 10 or 20 years ago when they changed it to be the same as the other states. the other was from another state.

(Presumably this has already been mentioned in another post above. Just thought I'd say it.)

Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.
