Einstein's puzzle
As some of you may or may not be aware, Einstein made a riddle, and they say only 2% of the population can solve it. Honestly, I don't believe that only 2% of the population can solve it, because it was ridiculously easy (I just solved it in ~25 minutes)

Now, if you want, you can google the answer and make yourself seem successful, or you can actually solve it and actually feel good that you were able to solve it.

You don't have to do it in your head, I did this on a piece of paper.

Here it is

There are five houses of different colors next to each other on the same road. In each house lives a man of a different nationality. Every man has his favorite drink, his favorite brand of cigarettes, and keeps pets of a particular kind.

The Englishman lives in the red house.
The Swede keeps dogs.
The Dane drinks tea.
The green house is just to the left of the white one.
The owner of the green house drinks coffee.
The Pall Mall smoker keeps birds.
The owner of the yellow house smokes Dunhills.
The man in the center house drinks milk.
The Norwegian lives in the first house.
The Blend smoker has a neighbor who keeps cats.
The man who smokes Blue Masters drinks bier.
The man who keeps horses lives next to the Dunhill smoker.
The German smokes Prince.
The Norwegian lives next to the blue house.
The Blend smoker has a neighbor who drinks water.

Who owns the fish?

Oh yeah like half of my class did this in 6th grade I think, it's not that hard. I think it's more like only 2% of the population has the patience to do it.
