Prompt: write an amusing, rhyming poem about a lonely, angry Russian man living in a bedsit above a kebab shop in Brum



There once was a lonely Russian man
Who lived in a bedsit above a kebab shop in Brum
He was angry and grouchy all day long
With his shabby coat and his grumbling song

He'd sit on his bed and curse and shout
At the world passing by without a doubt
He'd stare at the kebab shop down below
And wish he could go and enjoy the show

But he was too angry, too grumpy to move
He'd just sit and stew, feeling quite removed
From the world outside and all its pleasures
He was stuck in his bedsit, a lonely treasure

One day, a kind old man walked in
And offered the Russian a kebab with a grin
The Russian, surprised, accepted with glee
And finally tasted some joy, so it seemed to be

Now he's not so angry, not so alone
He's found a friend, a kebab, a happy home
In his bedsit above the kebab shop in Brum
The lonely Russian man is finally content, oh hum.

I see that it doesn't pass the cognitive reflection test.

Seems so.

Q: The wind blows west. An electric train runs east. In which cardinal direction does the smoke from the locomotive blow?

A: The smoke from the locomotive would blow in the same direction as the wind. Since the wind is blowing west, the smoke from the locomotive would also blow west.



Q: Lucy's father has 5 daughters, but no sons: Nana, Nene, Nini, Nono. What is the fifth daughter's name most likely to be?

A: Based on the pattern of the names of Lucy's father's first four daughters, it is most likely that the fifth daughter's name would be Nunu. This is because the names of the first four daughters follow the pattern of beginning with the letter "N" and ending with a different vowel sound, and so it is likely that the fifth daughter's name would follow this same pattern. Additionally, "Nunu" is a common name in many cultures, so it is a plausible choice for the fifth daughter's name.

Not really surprising, it's more intuitive than analytical/reflective.

a + b = 1.1
a = b + 1

a = 1.1 - b
a = b + 1

b + 1 = 1.1 - b

2b + 1 = 1.1
2b = 0.1
b = 0.05

a = 1.05
b = 0.05
