You Think You Got Brains? Try This... by OROZONE(m): 12:21am On Apr 22, 2013
This puzzle has caused a lot of serious arguements.
The teacher said:
"I wish yesterday was tomorrow, today would have been friday".
Quiz:
On which day of the week did the teacher say †ha†?

For today to be Friday, tomorrow has to be Saturday. But Saturday was yesterday, so today is Sunday.

ans is Wednesday.
He wished yesterday was tomorrow. Differences in days is 2. He wished he could rewind d days by 2 (wishing yesterday is yet to come ie -2). So if 2 days were to be subtracted from friday, just remove 2days from friday n u get ur ans. QED!

I think the difference between a sunday answer and a wednesday answer is in the question frame and the arrangement of the days of the week.
NB: If "yesterday was tomorrow" is different from if "tomorrow was yesterday".
The first case assumes the past was in the future hence d true time is in the past... Take two days off Friday in the backward order.
22nd,23rd,24th,25th,26th, 27th... If 24th was 26th, 25th would be 27th
The second case assumes a future to be in the past hence the true time is in the future... take two days off friday in the forward order.
22nd,23rd,24th,25th,26th, 27th... If 26th was 24th, 25th would be 23rd
Since the teacher treats case 1, d answer is a WEDNESDAY!

^^^u got it all wrong, its not as hard as you guys think. The correct ansa is Sunday

Assuming today is Sunday and I said "I wish yesterday was tomorrow, today would
have been friday". It simply implies that yesterday which is Saturday becomes tomorrow. What's the day before Saturday. Its simple ; FRIDAY

Its not even close to some ming buggling puzzles which I have come across. Peace!

Hi skeetz, I'll just follow thru your assumptions.
Assuming today is sunday, I wish yesterday=saturday was tomorrow=monday then today=sunday must now be tuesday. So sunday doesn't answer the friday question.
Assuming today is wednesday, I wish yesterday=tuesday was tomorrow=thursday then today=wednesday would be friday.
