"Mary had" can be construed as "gave birth"

It was a doctor's joke to begin with. My friend used gynaecologist instead of a doctor.

Then only number 2 of your possible answers would have made doctors freak out:P

[Off-topic] sakai4eva:
Mary is supposed to be a girl. It's a play on the nursery rhyme:

Mary had a little lamb

It's fleece is white as snow

etc.

Jokes cease to be funny the moment I had to explain more than one thing about it, so I'm not sure if you're trolling or just plain didn't get it.

Still.... your first reason Mary is a sheep, would not make doctors freak out.

But they shouldn't have.

The puzzler implies that Mary is a girl that gave birth to a little lamb. Doctors would have freaked out, of course.

But then in the two cases, they wouldn't have.

Ok, here it is...

I'll describe the scene and you have twenty questions*, yes or no answers only, to work out the story. I'm looking for where you are and how you came to be there, etc. Simples!

* A bit of latitude will be given on the number as it's a forum and liable to get a bit messy.

You are laying on the floor. There is a coin on the floor beside you. On a wall are two hangers, one has a suit on it. The room has one door, which is closed.

GO!

It seems my memory has failed me. You don't open your eyes - you turn on the light. Ah well, it's not age that's caused it. It's cos I've not played it in over 20 years!

Or something like that!

Okay, as it's your first time i'll give a clue or two about the thinking needed. (I say first time as there will be more..but then you'l have an idea about how to ask the right questions..and no quarter will be given!)

The question is sparse with information so every detail is critical, right? But focusing on details first is a mistake as you have limited questions! So start big and work down. The room has to be somewhere yes? I gave a clue earlier about 'the world'

One borked sub, two people, one borked diving suit and a coin toss to decide who gets out using the one remaining, functional suit.

Two questions could have placed you in water! Even a coin can be a binary state, heads or tails!

I fear for the future of mankind :D

Credit to Tomdg07 for making a leap of logic, and xaccers for seeing the coin toss. Despite anything he might say, i reckon he had the answer and was giving everyone else the ball to play with!

If you doubt yourself, there's a good chance you're one of the top 1% useful denizens of the planet. If you've never doubted yourself there's a good chance you're a soulless leech, a plague upon the planet, and will never contribute anything useful to the advancement of mankind.

Sorry i have to disagree. Indeed, the people you mention are more interesting than others who just went to school, going to work, then died. But what brings you to the idea that the "others" contribute more to the advancement of mankind? For example Konrad Zuse. He was going to school, study, then invented the first "computer". Sorry bout i doubt that "usual" people are useless scum on the planet.. But i agree, people who "learned it the hard way" are usually better in subjects like philosophy and are the "better" free thinkers.
